Maybe Apple+ and YouTube and Roku are the way to go. I can't get a game to start on the MLB app on my Roku about 80% of the time. It wasn't this bad last year. Progress, bah!

Same energy.

Hader?! I *despise* her!!

Oh, so the catcher interferes with the batter, yet the PITCHER has to be punished?! Well, this injustice will not stand!!

Yankees polluting fashion and culture halfway around the world. SMDH!

"I walked around Jakarta for hours today and have a boatload of thoughts, notes, and photos to organize. For now, just this: I’m genuinely surprised at the number of New York Yankees baseball caps I saw people wearing."

Luis García Jr. shows no "language barrier" as Charlie gives him the Gatling gun of questions while he just rolls out the standard issue Bull Durham platitudes to get through it. He speaks kinda the way I expected: solid, but a tad bit sloppy, just like he plays. 😀

I will bang this drum forever: in THEY THOUGHT THEY WERE FREE: THE GERMANS, 1933-45 Milton Mayer interviewed 10 ordinary Germans after WW2 to learn how fascism took hold. There was never a moment when everyone woke up:

Being a good citizen, being a good neighbor, being a helpful and attentive student, being a good community member, even what was once considered being a good Christian - all of these things are antithetical to the right wing movement

Down 4-2 with 2 (TWO) outs, Cronenworth bunts for a hit and beats it out at 1B, scoring Arraez from 3B. And the D-backs' problems Mantiply.

@rocinante.bsky.social The Arizona Diamondbacks radio guys are discussing "some guy named Charles 'Old Hoss' Radbourn who won 60 games...how do they find such absurdities?" and continue on with other facts to honor your memory.

Invoke the angry ghost of Teddy Roosevelt, a manly jingoistic Republican who is ostensibly exactly who they admire. He would tear out the still beating heart of anyone who suggested getting rid of our National Parks.

This is useful! Post it on your parents Facebook feed! I'm serious. This is the kind of shit they'll share!

For the people who don’t have time, here’s your Readers Digest version. You’re welcome.

As a side note, this is John McEntee, Trump's Director of White House Personnel and the primary architect of Project 2025. On Tik Tok he said he gives counterfeit bills to homeless people so they will be arrested when they go to spend them.

Funderburk's F-16 crashed.

Lopertito made a very unorthodox catch in RF that needed a replay review to get right. Worth watching highlights. Astros at Twins.

A cliche says antisemitism is the socialism of fools, and I think it might have worked the same way in our nation's history for democracy not socialism, and with a whole range of and whole series of vicious bigotries. "democracy" working because the electors could exclude and oppress some Other.
