The @splitzoneduo.com convo about whether or not coaches are crashing out harder about valid criticism than they used to requires that I post my fav dad lore: Ray Goff once drove to Atlanta to fight my dad because Goff thought my dad and his booster friends were talking so much shit he’d get fired

If you want some backstory as to TN and lethal injection. I wrote at length in 2018 as TN sought to restart executions using a new protocol — a method it has since replaced. It’s not an exaggeration to say that when it comes to lethal injection, states have always been making it up as they go along.

Chilling Testimony in a Tennessee Trial Exposes Lethal Injection as Court-Sanctioned Torture
The trial was a case study in the twisted legacy of Glossip v. Gross — and a chilling look at the botched executions that continue amid little controversy.

"There’s no moral or practical justification for the death penalty no matter how you do it. It’s cruel and arbitrary and it doesn’t act as a deterrent. It brutalizes the people who carry it out and traumatizes the families of victims, and the pattern of its application is openly racist."

I spent about a month researching how to unseal an NIL deal that's been filed in federal court. When I presented it to a lawyer who works with a major outlet, he loved it. But then they decided to cut me out. So I figured I'd just share my work with everyone :) www.foiaball.com/p/cincinnati...

I’m seeing a new allergist-immunologist and today he brought up this study about how much Astepro nasal spray, which I use daily, appears to decrease the likelihood of COVID, flu, RSV, etc. I have barely gotten a cold since I started using it but had no idea why. jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...

If I had gotten hit by a car to get this photo it would have been worth it
A man in a black helmet and khaki motorcycle gear rides his motorcycle down a street in Manhattan. In the motorcycle’s sidecar, a dog that looks like a heeler mix stands at attention with his front paws up on the front of the sidecar, his eyes protected by a set of khaki motorcycle goggles. The dog is wearing a harness that sort of looks like a biker vest. He appears to be having the time of his life.

Here’s the most incredible story you’ll read today. A small plane with four people aboard crashes in a field. Another pilot witnesses it. That pilot happens to be flying a bunch of skydivers. They offer to jump to assist, are given permission. The skydivers happen to be EMTs. Everyone survives.

Skydivers alert emergency crews, assist after plane crashes near East Troy airport
Four people were aboard the single-engine plane when it went down in a cornfield near Carvers School Road in East Troy at about 1:30 p.m.

There’s this sort of odd and objectively incorrect background assumption that the corporate form is natural and inviolable and it just isn’t, a corporation is the state magnanimously allowing you to make up a fake person for business reasons, there is no legal or philosophical reason for CEO-Kings
