baseball is the best preparation for death because it does not come with a clock that tells you when your suffering will end one way or the other

Insane second half and postseason from the Aces. They do what seemed unthinkable mid-season, win it again & the legacy grows.

And the Nike “Welcome Back” ad? Perfection.

PS - Jewell Loyd now 10-0 in Finals games for 3 titles. Not bad!

I didn't mention that DHS habitually lies because I knew I could trust all of you in the bluesky reply community to provide that critical context.

UPDATE: In emailed statement to me / @reason.com, DHS alleges that WGN-TV producer Debbie Brockman "threw objects at Border Patrol’s car and she was placed under arrest for assault on a federal law enforcement officer."

Screencap of email from DHS public affairs: Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin:

“U.S. Border Patrol was conducting immigration enforcement operations and when several violent agitators used their vehicles to block in agents in an effort to impede and assault federal officers. In fear of public safety and of law enforcement, officers used their service vehicle to strike a suspect’s vehicle and create an opening. As agents were driving, Deborah Brockman, a U.S. citizen, threw objects at Border Patrol’s car and she was placed under arrest for assault on a federal law enforcement officer.

“This incident is not isolated and reflects a growing and dangerous trend of illegal aliens violently resisting arrest and agitators and criminals ramming cars into our law enforcement officers. These attacks highlight the dangers our law enforcement officers face daily—all while receiving no pay thanks to the Democrats’ government shutdown.”
