But the world that once flocked there has changed. Davos is sailing against the wind. Multilateralism is in retreat, protectionism is on the rise, and great-power rivalry — between the US and China, between the west and the global south — is remaking global governance.

Well I heard it on in the celebration. I mean I was about to say it to two people while on my walk yesterday, but I only said it in my head. People wear Yankee caps as a fashion symbol. Weak people I say.

Anyway Fuck the Yankees. Now I hope we can say Fuck Detroit next.

We are moving on! I am always nervous when Little and Hoffman are pitching. But who cares now!

Now we wait! #BlueJays

I am wondering if this is Russia or a copycat? This is becoming too much

Jays in 4 and will face the Tigers in the ALCS. I'm tired of seeing Seattle as a Jsys fan and TFC supporter.

I've seen a couple of people shitpoating about Bari Weiss and her hiring at CBS. There is nothing wrong with centrist contrarian views. Basically, if you don't like their reporting, don't watch.

I obtained my Maltese passport & EU citizenship through paperwork and a bit of genealogical luck. For now, it sits in a lockbox, unused.

I'm trying to figure out what cultural humility requires before I use the privileges I didn't earn. Sitting with uncertainty might be the work itself.

Barring a miracle, looks like we get ready for a 4:08 pm start, Jays fam.

Goddammit. Yankees are winning. Early looks like he will be leaving the game early.

The Yankees have banned Canadian fans to attend their playoff games. So let's ban New York state fans from attending the Jays games. If the have already bought then just give them immediate refunds.

All beer is good for spraying. Speaking of spraying, I see you witnessed another Bills win. Perfect day for it too.

I agree with you. Baseball has always been about simplicity and should be about the fans. MLB just loves to complicate things now. With expansion maybe it's time to bring the Senators back to the AL to even the East. Anyway all speculative and MLB will fuck it up.
