hey if you're wondering "has a baseball website covered whatever the fuck Miller is talking about, for some reason and done it more accurately than he is?" the answer is absolutely, yes:

If you like the hockey boys kissing show, you’ll love the good Jewish baseball boys kissing book.
"But as in any KD Casey book, the third party in the relationship is ‘baseball’, which here acts as a hard to please lover."

I was trying to think of a good summary of this book, but a pal did it for me. Breakout Year, an mm sports romance, is out in the world!

What if instead of Cyber Monday (aka Daddy Bezos Day), we did a Support Indie Media Monday?

What are your favorite indie publications? Who are some of your favorite freelance and indie reporters and commentators?

Can we make this a thing?

I just glanced up at the LIDOM game on my TV, saw a barely buttoned jersey in the batter's box, and said "What does this guy think he is, a Phillie?" It was Johan Rojas.

The most vigorous expression of a resolution does not always coincide with the greatest vigour of the resolution itself. It is often flung out as a sort of prop to support a decaying conviction which, while strong, required no enunciation to prove it so. – Thomas Hardy

oh so these people do pay attention to who politicians follow on social media, they just don’t care that the vice president follows a bunch of actual neo-nazis
Axios tried to bust James Talarico for following adult content creators on Instagram and I'm genuinely impressed by his campaign's response

This series is fun and also now that I think about it I DID pull out my Switch for the first time in a while around the time I was watching a bunch of Mariners postseason baseball…
At @baseballprospectus.com last week, I began my annual review of teams' advertising shoulder patches. Some of them were a little strange. In this week's conclusion, it gets weirder.

No more Black or trans staffers. No politics of any kind. The cowardice of mainstream media isn't just insulting, it's *boring.* Now TV is just like any other beauty rag. Why not just kill it quickly? Why the slow-motion pretense?
thank you for all the support; the statement from our union is now live here with some more reporting.

now that this is public I can confirm that the majority of today’s layoffs were women of color. there are no longer any Black women working at Teen Vogue.

Yoshinobu Yamamoto is the first pitcher in MLB history to win 3 games ON THE ROAD in a single World Series.
Yoshinobu Yamamoto is the first pitcher to win 3 games in a single World Series since Randy Johnson in 2001. Johnson won Game 2 and Game 6 as a starter and Game 7 as a reliever. Yamamoto did the same.
