Hi, I'm Demetrius. I like sports (especially baseball. I joined SABR lol), I like video games, I like weird stuff. If you like any of that, then we're cool. Please don't be goofy.

Due to some very sad circumstances, this lovely pup Luna is now in need of a home. If you're in the Atlanta area and you're looking to bring a dog into your world, Luna would be a fantastic addition to your family. If not, please just share this for a signal boost. lifelineanimal.org/pet-details/...

Jaguars reporter’s kindness to Liam Coen is not the end of sports journalism as we know it
Liam Coen’s interaction with a local reporter doesn’t need your scorn.

This isn't just a casual observation. Fascism scholars have long made this point. It's why calling them "weird" was a more effective strategy than talking about the prices of eggs. Fascism is an aesthetic political movement - you need to make people feel embarassed and horrified by it.
one of the most effective weapons we have against fascism is mockery, especially when its really funny
It occurs to me all the yelling at ICE in MPLS isn't merely funny. Getting made fun of like this is awful for morale. ICE is losing field officers faster than it can wave them through training, and a big part of it is how little of this these little weasels can take.

I thought this was a joke but it’s an actual post from the White House: “we are ending the war on protein”
How about ending the war on the health of this country?

Even Dan Campbell was like "Bro this might be it" after they blew that NFC title game, it's a cold world out here
The biggest lie fans tell themselves is that they’ll be back next year
Sorry, JP. Jags got a bright future, though. They’ll be back next year.

All this for one kid. I know we're past the point of trying to reason with the current conservative movement but you'd think this would be a moment of reflection once you realize that all this effort is being spent to make one single kid's life worse
On Tuesday, the Supreme Court is going to hear West Virginia's effort to ban the state's only transgender athlete, 15-year-old Becky Pepper-Jackson.
Win or lose, I need your help making sure Becky knows she's a hero for standing up for what's right

This also might be the loudest crowd in the history of non-soccer Atlanta sports. Everything of this size before this was way more split (SEC championship, etc) and/or contemplative (Falcons, etc). Maybe crowd at Olympics 200M. Yeah that's right we had the Olympics
