@Chris_arnade "These are tricking questions and there is no easy solution, which is why we need to talk." ... riveting stuff there, Tim.

Tim is surprisingly not a Nuclear power bro

Set for evening.

STOP YOUR SCROLL, WATCH THIS GOAL 🤩 Micky van de Ven breaks out his best Son Heung-min impression and it is simply SENSATIONAL.

Sean is one of the best coaches around, and a wonderful person, too. He'll be missed in Virginia prep baseball!

@bryancurtis There must be a massive Star Wars fan working undercover for NYT obit (perhaps, like a character from Andor, hiding in plain sight). Many thanks to that person, whoever they are.

In the last two years, the Times has published full-scale obits for Admiral Piett, Captain Needa, the original Emperor, Salacious Crumb, and the effects guy who blew up the Death Star in A New Hope. This is how you know the paper is being written for you. nytimes.com/2025/07/20/mov…

@jeannasmialek TBF the EU budget is like 1% of GDP per year, right? While firing the fed chair could move economies by much more. Still, at least by being in Brussels you're not in the DC heat right now.

I know I am supposed to be covering the EU budget, but the Fed FOMO today is so real.

@daveweigel Hey @thepressboxpod does calling a piece a "curtain-raiser" qualify as an only in journalism word? Sort of a meta one as it's the type of word we might use in the newsroom rather than being in the actual piece (which @daveweigel did a very nice job on) .

My curtain-raiser on #VAGov, which has been lost a bit under MAMDANIMANIA. Rs, still looking for their message, are doing a lot of 2021 nostalgia - at the GOP unity rally, warnings that Dems might close schools and mandate masks again. semafor.com/article/07/08/…

@DanWoikeSports @bryancurtis @HC_Richardson I was worried why @bryancurtis had been locked into a dark room but thinking about it as the Charlie Rose set makes me feel better (I guess).

@bryancurtis @HC_Richardson They bought you the old Charlie Rose set?

Like most ex-presidents, Barack Obama has maintained a low profile after leaving office. Historian @HC_Richardson asks: Should he? Full interview here: open.spotify.com/episode/2gpmQa…

@SOTUWithAlexi Tim Howard.

Matt Freese. Matt Turner. 🇺🇸🧤 Which player do you want starting in goal for the USMNT in the Gold Cup Quarterfinals vs Costa Rica? 👀

@MenInBlazers Was watching from the other end. That quality made it very hard to remember that the Club World Cup is a stupid money grab.

WATCHING THIS MESSI FREEKICK ON REPEAT 😍

@gmoomaw Perhaps the last, dying gasp of the Terry McAuliffe "machine" (heavy sarcasm intended) in Virginia.

Stoney concedes. And that's that.

@bryancurtis WaPo did a Buc-ee's story a few years ago (wonderfully written by @hannah_denham1 when she was an intern there), but if memory serves it was only on the front of style, not A1. Glad the Grey Lady is catching up. washingtonpost.com/graphics/2019/…

Buc-ee's on A1 "A year and a half ago, I wrote it in my prayer journal — 'I would like a Buc-ee’s contract.'" nytimes.com/2025/06/14/us/…

@jtuckermartin Tough luck for all the folks who left for those vacations this weekend, after the war started but before the official guidance came out.

So many summer vacations just flat ruined

@CodyChaffins I'm curious to see what the announced (and real) numbers are on Thursday when Messi comes to town. I know at least one person who'll be there!

22,137 announced attendance at Chelsea vs LAFC in Fifa Club World Cup group play at Mercedes Benz Stadium. 300 level fans relocated lower when they arrived.

@John_ForemanCBE @DavidLarter Scottish whisky definitely beats the Appalachian moonshine.

@DavidLarter And of course:

@alexandrascaggs Going on vibes is a bad idea... but so is internet research. Instead go talk to the nice employees at your locally owned garden store.

when we had our first kid my cousin (a former NICU nurse) told me to “use my intuition”.…. didn’t have the heart to tell her I hadnt worked with babies & only had intuition about Words On Screen ~4yrs later I only have intuition about Words On Screen and Little Person Needs

doing vibes-based gardening this year no reading no internet research it is not going to end well lol

Translation: He has eaten our dogs #chicagopope

Sox take the loss in Kansas City but get the win at the Vatican.

@thepressboxpod @bryancurtis and co at the Press Box will also be monitoring the energy, action, and appetite of their peers at the next big game, one imagines.

Journalism isn't finished yet. x.com/EclipseTBP/sta…

@MattZeitlin Not wrong though

love how the FT describes Nebraska

@PasquatchWRLD It's because Vinnie shaved the beard, obviously.

This game needs to be studied bc where did all of this come from 😭
