And in that pause between pitch and contact - longer than logic, shorter than hope - we remembered why baseball existed long before we judged a sport's value by viral moments and betting apps. It is the romance of failure. The mortal beauty of trying and missing seven times out of 10 and still being considered great. It is the only sport where patience is a weapon, and panic the surest death. You cannot simply run out the clock in baseball; you must face it, pitch by terrifying pitch, until it finally releases you.
Did not expect one of the best paragraphs I’d read about baseball would come from an Irish newspaper

throughout the regular season, he collects the seeds and hoards them in his clubhouse office in preparation for the postseason. "His piles are enormous," says Shohei Ohtani through his translator, "I fear I could be crushed if I dare to enter his abode."
fun fact: much like a chipmunk, dave roberts stores vast quantities of of seeds in his cheek pouches before every game. these nutritional reserves give him a competitive advantage during important playoff games.
dave roberts is a true seed chewer. no one has ever chewed more seeds than dave roberts
it really came down to him cursing that city for a thousand years by Being Drake

There was a fire at the Museum of Jurassic Technology a few days ago. It was promptly stopped but they’ll need time — and our support — to recover.

Westlake, the Los Angeles neighborhood where MacArthur Park is located in, is a vibrant community with a large Central American population. Insane scene today, as shown in the video below. 😞
just found out that allogator alcatraz isn’t just a stupid name but that they’re actually putting alligators around the concentration camp so if people try to escape they’ll get eaten alive by alligators. genuinely deeply evil shit

i gave a sermon at church recently about the scapegoating of trans life in america. it's written to comfort trans people under attack, to engage christians with a robust theological argument, and to challenge liberal institutional passivity. you can now watch it here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=kbyL...
1. Alert, and please share widely. A lawyer at the ACLU has asked me to inform my transgender readers that they should NOT be applying for passports right now - the state department has not issued guidance to comply with the court order and they are urgently trying to get them to do so.

This is a jaw-dropping lie. Check my feed for videos of ICE at Dodger Stadium trying to get into the parking lot and being blocked by the LAPD.
Veteran photographer Michael Nigro was shot in the head with a non-lethal bullet while covering anti-ICE protests in LA. "It felt very very intentional," Nigro tells NPR, "a chilling effect to convince us to go away."
Other reporters say they have been targeted too.

YES this is totally who i was thinking of
The Torrance, CA, No Kings event started at 11am - shortly before noon they announced we were 10,000 strong! More people kept coming so final total is probably more. It was inspiring and felt so good to know there are more like minded people than I thought!
