Tippy Martinez picked off the side.
With pitchers and catchers reporting in 2 weeks, what are your favorite unbelievable-but-true baseball stats?

I think for me, it's Mariano Rivera's 0.70 ERA in 141 post-season innings. In fun terms: More people (12) have walked on the moon than scored off Rivera (11) in the post-season.

New Hampshire Republicans want to build fossil fuel pipelines and tax solar. Why? Because they hate the environment and want it to burn. #NHPolitics

All MAGA supported federal government agents using lawless violence against immigrants.

Some MAGA supports lawless violence against protesters publicly objecting to lawless violence against immigrants.

Few MAGA support lawless violence against white gun owners legally exercising 2nd Amdt. rights.

It is profoundly sad that a white man's concealed carry guns rights is what is getting certain people to finally understand that the US government does not give a shit about laws or rights or lives. This is not a criticism of the victim. This is a criticism of the US's sympathies & priorities.

Why is the msm outside of Maine not covering this? It seems like a huge and very troubling story to me. ICE coming to observers houses or calling them on the phone warning them to back off??!! www.pressherald.com/2026/01/23/i...

More and more people are saying that the center-left political elite has its own omnicause reactionism problem centered around personal grievances against pro-Palestine students and transgender people.
the atlantic has been like this for a long time but man, it really blows that the flagship publication for american liberalism has abandoned *liberalism* wholesale because of trans athletes and woke student governments
International law no longer serves as an instrument of global stability—and the U.S. should use this moment to argue for a different approach to the rules of war, John Yoo argues.

Our country was founded on illegally throwing a bunch of tea into the harbor.
Attorney General Pam Bondi: "Our country was founded on law enforcement"
Bondi: "It's extremely organized. The signs they have are all matching, they're well written. And look at what's happening today. How did these people go out & get gas masks? These protesters. Would you know how to walk out on the street and buy a gas mask? Think about that. We're not gonna have it"

Set aside Grokipedia's dumb conservative politics, if a AI model's source of information is the output from another AI model, actual facts are quickly going to get lost in the wash.
Time to dump ChatGPT!

The latest model of ChatGPT has begun to cite Elon Musk’s Grokipedia as a source on a wide range of queries, including on Iranian conglomerates and Holocaust deniers, raising concerns about misinformation on the platform.

Seems like, overnight, someone (who?!) made the decision that the US is going to embrace the most corrosive & addictive forms of gambling, and make them trivially easy to access, and shove them out in front of the most vulnerable victims in every corner of media & culture.

Why did we do that?

ICE just gunned down ANOTHER person, beating a man half to death before shooting him at point blank range. What the fuck are we doing?

ARREST ICE NOW. PROSECUTE ICE NOW.

I will not rest until every single one of these murderers is held accountable to the communities they terrorize.

I have spent so much time walking people through their concerns about opsec and ways to mitigate them. Maybe that was wise back when no one knew what to expect. But now that we have some experience at this, its clear that, in this context, opsec is so often counterproductive.
Opsec culture in activism legitimately needs to die

Wokeness is a vaccine against fascism. Some people don't like vaccines.
it's cool that so many people in positions of power and influence were so negatively polarized by "wokeness" that they convinced themselves that there was an actual debate about who wanted to erase history and the "wokes" were on the wrong side bsky.app/profile/arch...

Calling Congressional Republicans and supportive business leaders cowardly or weak is generous.

Assumes they're moral and patriotic, and therefore don't like all this, but are just too scared to do anything about it.

Their actions, however, indicate that they're into it. Or at least don't mind.

i personally think “don’t fund the gestapo” is a relatively small ask in the face of an illegal violent occupation of a US city that has killed at least one citizen and terrorized countless more. any elected who cannot clear even that modest bar is dead to me

Democrats should promise to reward everyone in the database with a $1000 check.
Everyone is 12 theory of American politics remains strong.

We have many fewer guns than them. We have 100 times as many people as them. Even from a purely strategic perspective, it’s insane to pursue any means of resistance but one that negates their superior military force and advantages the side with the greater number of eyes and ears.

ICE must be abolished. It has become a lawless, rogue agency. Federal law enforcement agencies must follow the law, if they're going to have any credibility enforcing it.

We are demanding justice for Renee Good and the prosecution of ICE agent Jonathan Ross for her murder.
