Wrapped the film shoot on my directorial debut. An exhilarating, exhausting, extremely challenging but immensely rewarding experience. Enormous gratitude to the whole crew… I learned so much and pushed myself to the limit with this project. Now we edit!

The best backcourt in college basketball resides in Storrs. Silas Demary Jr. and Braylon Mullins combine for 44 points and 11 rebounds in an eight-point win over Michigan in Boston. UConn is still UConn --- again.

It’s crazy that UConn has 4+ venues, in different states/cities, that are basically home venues. Huskies over Michigan in Boston

The complete electoral annihilation of MAGA had been so long overdue, but they’ve always been massive losers. This heinous administration, by far the worst in American history, deserves every last bit of it.

For all of the mythical narratives built around Donald Trump's strength, he's now managed to hand the Republican Party one of the weakest out-party midterms (2022), the weakest in-party midterm (2026), and two narrow wins in years that frankly should have been waves (2016/24).

A lot of rats are going to pretend they didn’t spend the past few years whoring themselves out to Trump and it’s crucial not to let them get away with it.

It is possible that Republicans lose every seat they gerrymandered for themselves.

This “mean tweets” line of argument are among the most facile. To say that Trump’s actions haven’t been extreme is to say that naked corruption, an illegal war, lying about an election and then trying to overturn the results, and then pardoning the violent protestors who sacked the capitol, weaponizing the DOJ, siding with dictators over democracies, putting masked agents on the streets who have shot Americans, that none of that is extreme behavior. Which is a genuinely insane position. And obviously that’s just scratching the surface off the top of my head.

OBAMA: The president wasn't even mad. About The Saddam Hussein comparison. That part didn't bother him. But he was very upset about The Cheesecake Factory. He took great umbrage. He said I didn't understand the work of the artisans in the White House. They mobilized a whole of government response to that joke. Not to inflation, but to that joke.

Abdul El-Sayed: “We are being actively bullied by the dumbest people in the room. Donald Trump is an idiot. He has one genius which is getting attention. Because his dad never gave him enough, because he was a nepo baby, he craved attention and used the bullying tactics to get it. But the man is an idiot. Just a fool”

"Donald Trump and his family are executing corruption at a scale never previously contemplated in the American experiment. If we are to ever graduate from this era of brazen graft, the first step is to notice." A service, from @MattWelch. reason.com/2026/07/09/the-mo…

Not many teams --- in an exhibition game or a regular season game --- could go to East Lansing and beat Michigan State. To do it without Braylon Mullins is an incredible achievement. UConn is still UConn. Again.
