Good thing for him he’s only the president and not an actor on FX’s The League or there would be real consequences for this.

We read the Education of Little Tree in my HS Eng Class. I said it was garbage and treated Native Americans like noble savages. Everyone in class told me I was wrong and it was biographical. A few weeks later the local paper ran a story that it was written by a white supremacist.

I disagree with with Emily Wilson, I thought there were many iconic lines in Nolan's Odyssey. "Jesus, this Odyssey could have been an email!" "My guy, I cannot WAIT for the Iron Age." (Upon seeing Laestrygonians) "Seriously?!" I did think Antinuous said "Six seven" a few too many times.

Solution: The team with the worst record gets to pick which team's record the following season their draft pick will be based on. So, if Indy has the worst record, they could pick the Kings for 26-27 season. Team with second worst record gets second pick of their proxy for the following season

Election Day 2020, a young guy walked up to me in Astoria and said he was running for state assembly. A man near me asked, “Are you a Democrat? I don’t like Democrats, I’m voting for the Republican.” And the young guy said “I have bad news, I’m running unopposed.” Anyway, he just got elected mayor.

It’s weird to see the news about Billups and Rozier getting arrested when all the other headlines are “Legal scholars question whether Trump has the authority to cut off the head of the Lincoln Memorial as he boldly saws away.”

How to make teams care: Winner of the NBA Cup gets 5 extra points to use during the regular season. Runner-up gets 2. Lost by 1? You use two of your points and now you win. To use the points, the head coach blows into a ram's horn. The coach carries it with him at all times. This is a good idea.

This is from Andrea Vernon & The Big Are Acquisition (2021) by @alexanderckane.bsky.social, set in a world in which super villains (led by a dinosaur and a man who wants to be a truck) have taken over the US government. It feels kinda prescient now.
The next item is that the whole Finance Department is a mess. DESTRON controls the entire United States of America, but we are not efficiently plundering it. Also, bribes are not being paid."

"We won!" said Truck Face. “We do not need bribes. We have power."

The endgame of the trans athlete scare is defining what a woman is and punishing woman for not conforming to that standard. Algeria is anti-LGBTQ. It is illegal to be trans in Algeria. This is about punishing women for living their lives honestly and demanding you recognize their excellence.

For each NBA team’s first preseason game next year, they should do it without refs and have players call their own fouls.

I don’t believe the lottery is rigged, but the year where Dallas inexplicably trades a superstar to LA and then miraculously wins the the top pick, would be the time I would most believe the lottery is rigged.

Free throws are a bad system and encourage committing fouls too often. For a two shot foul: Player gets the ball at the FT line, everyone else behind 3 pt line, whistle blows, 3 second shot clock. For 3 shot foul, player at 3 line, everyone else at half court, blow whistle, 3 second shot clock.
