this f*cking guy writing a book about his Catholicism might be even more ludicrous than him writing a book about growing up in Appalachia 🤦🏻‍♀️

USD j-school alum here - I’m embarrassed. a senior administrator tweet-ranted a baseless attempt to discredit journalism in service of a false narrative/because he took offense to facts…you see that’s what this boils down to, right? this is a bigger deal than sportsball, imo.

Sioux Falls Live continues to go out of its way to cover USD sports despite the fact that it draws consistently terrible traffic. And this is how the AD responds. Grow up, Jon.

We had to say goodbye to Max a couple days ago, which definitely put a damper on our Christmas. We only had six years with him and our family is devastated. He was Arthur’s first dog. He was the best boy. We’re really gonna miss him.

day 1 of wondering about @thegridkid ‘s discerning criteria for making ‘omigod’ an answer (thank the dictionary I got to genius without those 6 points, btw, because ew) when making a gerund out of ‘mom’ isn’t? would love to know why ‘clit’ isn’t word either, but ‘celeb’ is? 🤔
