If it has anything to do with an old house or the Kentucky Wildcats, count me in. Architectural History. Frank Lloyd Wright. Taliesin Associated Architects. Western Kentucky. Southern Indiana. Cats. All of them.

I’m listening to an 86 year old talk about losing his wife. My coworker lost her husband of 56 years in June. This isn’t depressing at all.

Mike, What’s off is saying big arenas and 300 people. That’s more like an intimate club setting, not arena.

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

Mike Johnson: "When I'm in these big arenas, I ask for hands -- 'Show me your hand if you've answered a poll in the last six months.' There will be like three hands among 300 people. I'm telling you, these polls are off. All of them."

Evil mother fucker says more evil mother fucker is pretty good guy.

Q: Do you think it's right for the richest man in the world to have so much power over what goes on in a war because Russia and Ukraine? TRUMP: Well, I don't think he does. First of all, he's a very good person. He's not gonna do anything wrong. Elon will never do anything wrong.

Totally wish Lil Sting would have played for Will Stein!

STEVEN BORDEN IS BACK AND BOY DOES HE HAVE A CHALLENGE FOR THE DON CALLIS FAMILY! #AEWDynamite is LIVE on TBS and HBO Max

The amount of older people who are DoorDashing is getting sad. Like maybe 5% of these people are doing it for something to do. They are working to pay their bills and survive. 80 years old and can’t afford medical bills, so he’s delivering food. Make America Great Again.

Indiana’s Bloody 8th needs to go Blue. Go do your part and put Mary in DC.

There have been so many joyful moments along this journey and this video captures many of them. I’m so grateful to have met so many of you all around the 8th District. Thank you for inviting me to your events and into your homes. Let’s keep building a future where everyone can thrive, together.

Trump: "Jon Ossoff has spent more money on makeup -- and by the way I wear very little and I do it myself. Yaaaaaaaaaaahhhh. Because if you don't put a little on, you look a little bit like a dead person. I don't want to look that way. But he goes full bore."

This dude has done more damage with his music.

Kid Rock on Fox & Friends: "It appears that El-Sayed is assimilated ... and I would like to make the point that there have been other people who have assimilated to this country. The Fort Hood shooter. Those extremists that became pilots and crashed into our World Trade Center."

Yeah. Get rid of all of them at this point.

Republican Rep. Andy Harris incorrectly told a reporter they were breaking the law as the reporter and others recorded an exchange with him last night. Harris had just wrapped up a debate with Democratic challenger Dan Schwartz.

Sometimes when the dog gets rabies, you gotta call Kristi Noem. This old dog definitely has rabies.

Trump: "It's called a coganative [sic] test. It's a very standard test, but very tough. There are few people in this audience that can -- once you get past the first question. They show you a lion, a bear, a giraffe, and a snake and they say, 'Which one is the lion?' Biden was unable to answer that"

I sure hope Troy Jackson wins. That said, I better never hear a Northeastern person give any shit to a Southern person over their accent. I’ve used my draw to get laid. I can guarantee that hasn’t happened for Troy.

If Biden had said this…

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

Trump on Jon Husted: "I don't do this with men very often. I started examining his body, because I didn't know he was a great athlete ... I looked at his ass"

If JC is back, I’ll be paying attention! I like Ben too! LHL looking like chumps…

John Clay@johnclayiv.bsky.social

My friend and former colleague Ben Roberts has left the Lexington Herald-Leader to start his own Kentucky basketball site. I'll be contributing to the site, as well as Derek Terry. Ben has done outstanding work for the H-L. Hope you'll check out his new endeavor. www.insidekentuckybasketball.com

You don’t grow up on the Green River not knowing Prine. Paradise will forever be the song of western Kentucky coal towns and camps. He lives forever in our hearts.

Music Box Magazine@musicboxonline.bsky.social

John Prine would have turned 80 this week. He survived cancer, twice, only to be taken from us too soon anyway, due to complications from all things…COVID-19. Remember COVID? Fuck this shitty timeline, and fuck the people who made it worse. Prine was born in Maywood, Illinois, not too...

A lot of talk from a dude who got his ass kicked by Iran.

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

Hegseth: "I don't know if we've ever said this publicly. Under Biden, there was 1 hour of TV that they advertised the most on. It shocked us. What do you think it was? The View. A lot of big, strong young men watching The View. We've totally inverted the way this department works."

I was always told my family were poor dirt farmers from Denmark. My brother must not have been told the same stories. This dude just bought Italian made tile, for his driveway!! Luckiest cars ever.

Always been a fan of Jones and Dennis. #firstnamebasis

FUCK ICE.@stephenmiller4ft10.bsky.social

Shout out @daviddennisjr.bsky.social who on ESPNS national radio broadcast last night discussed his exit from X/Twitter and said CATCH HIM ON BLUESKY! BLUESKY IS A SPORTS APP!

Trump: "There's never been anybody in the history of the Nobel Prize that deserves it more. I settled eight wars. I stopped the total obliteration of the world."

I sometimes legit think this is an alternate universe. Like for real? We are this stupid?

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

Trump: "I could've done very bad things to Hillary Clinton. I could've done very very bad things to Joe Biden. I could've done very bad things to Barack Hussein Obama ... I can do whatever I want, if I want."

Kentucky. Please to God, do what’s right. This man truly cares about you and the state.

Charles Booker@booker4ky.bsky.social

Disappointed, but not surprised Andy Barr declined the invitation. He’ll talk about me online, but won’t show up to answer questions. Kentuckians deserve leadership that shows up, listens, and fights for working people. That’s why I’m running. Support: secure.actblue.com/donate/socia...

First Fall Festival without my dad. He may have spent the last 4 decades in Kentucky, but he was always a westsider. Maybe by the end of the week I’ll work up to a brain sandwich. For now I’ll settle with these tamales he loved so much.

Not all cool houses were designed by Frank Lloyd Wright. Not all mid century architects worked or were inspired by him either. Just FYI.

Wow. So politicians can be civil after races?!?

Sliwa getting a flu shot: This could be very embarrassing. I’m supposed to be a tough guy, right? Mamdani: I can hold your hand. Sliwa: What happens if I faint? Mamdani: I got you. Doctor: You’re in great hands, literally. New Yorkers can find free flu shots and locations at nyc.gov/healthmap

Never forget she swam under Lars Jorgensen, and never mentions what happened with him. How can you be for women’s sports and not speak out against him?

Allison Gill@muellershewrote.com

My favorite news today is that Riley Gaines lost in court, and there’s no fifth place in court.

Meijer has a full blown Deaconess Clinic inside. Like I’m from a town of 400 that didn’t even get a DG until a few years back. This is cutting edge technology to simple folks like me.

lolz. Amy is savage.

🤡 Schmitt beclowns himself 🤡 Schmitt concocted an elaborate conspiracy theory that Smith traveled to Atl for a Hawks game and to collude with Fani Willis, & flashed his "evidence" before accusing Smith of perjury. There's just one problem -- his facts were totally wrong. Here's the whole sequence:

Pete Hegseth is way too focused on boners. For a dude who wants to make the military less gay, isn’t he doing the most gay stuff?

NEWS: The Pentagon has announced mandatory low-testosterone screenings for male troops 30 and older, including screening for symptoms such as “reduced libido, loss of spontaneous morning erections, erectile dysfunction,” and other symptoms.

This week I’m giving a tour of The Peters-Margedant House to someone who grew up in a Frank Lloyd Wright Usonian. Pretty excited to see what similarities he sees between 25 years of design and advancement. Also I usually give the stories, I think I’ll get to listen this time.

The Pride of Princeton deserves all her flowers and then some.

Yeah, if you don’t like this guy maybe you are the problem.

25 years ago, terrorists killed nearly 3,000 people, including 2,753 New Yorkers. As we remember that terrible day, let us also remember the first responders, office workers and strangers who ran toward danger to help each other.
