So HBO became HBO Go and then changed to HBO Max, and now it's going to be MAX, but HBO still owns Cinemax—remember when Cinemax was (briefly) MAX? By some design flaw, we used HBO Max a week or 2 ago and had commercials for Episode 2 of Love & Death and wow, it was terrible.

As far as Maryland town names go, Scaggsville is one of the worst I’ve encountered.

Hard to believe the Baltimore Banner is only a few months old. Seems like just yesterday that they started publishing terrible, bigoted Opinion pieces and (occasionally) giving belated (half-assed) apologies like the decades-older papers. They grow up so fast!

During an interview about his restaurant, Peter Thomas spoke scornfully of Baltimore. Specifically Black Baltimoreans.

Dear white people, Please listen to Black/brown people when we tell you something is racist. Because nothing is more frustratingly unsurprising than knowing something or someone is racist and hearing a white person go, “Are you sure?” Like, we’re not just making this shit up.

I've said it many times, but it bears saying at least once more: fuck Larry Hogan.

We scheduled the goats til Wednesday, but they ate faster than expected and cleared the area! We know it’s hard to say goodbye, the goats deserve a round of applause for their INSANE eating skills and for bringing joy this weekend. THANK YOU, ECO-GOATS! We hope to see you soon.

After hearing about the private security car and the new Atlas rooftop seafood restaurant at Cross Street Market, I feel we have no choice but to initiate the de-annexation of Federal Hill from Baltimore City. I've felt this way long before this, but I'm seizing this moment.
