"It's just made to instill fear, and I'm not sure why we need fear in our communities instead of love and caring and community togetherness." Perfectly said.

I've been trying to read insights from people smarter and more informed than me to try to get my mind around the current state of affairs. While that's a VERY large pool of people, few help me understand things more than Chris. If you're not following him and subscribed to his stuff... fix that!

If Jeff Bezos's latest round of bullshit was the final straw for your @washingtonpost.com subscription, how about putting those dollars toward the amazing independent/nonprofit news sites doing real work! I humbly recommend @lawdorknews.bsky.social, @marisakabas.bsky.social, @bolts.bsky.social!

I just can't help but wondering how much better our world would be today if Fred Trump had loved his son enough to give him an occasional hug 75 years ago.

One thing I learned in many years reporting in China is how eventually, the power apparatus comes for everyone, even those who think they'll remain safe by keeping quiet or sucking up to power. That's just how it works.

Knowing and asserting your rights is so important in fighting tyranny and government overreach. Demand a REAL warrant signed by a judge. Don't open the door to your home without one. Don't answer questions. www.nbcsandiego.com/news/local/v...

I'd be okay going more than 48 hours without having to discuss whether my dad needs to evacuate because of fire! (Thankfully, both times the answer has been no, and SDFD and the joint incident command group are doing an amazing job.)

When you hear "have mercy on the people in our country who are scared now" as hate, it's probably time to spend a few minutes in prayer and repentance.

One of the almost unfathomable truths about this administration is that, for as malevolent as they are, they are somehow even weirder.

I've had two songs on loop the last few days: The incredibly haunting collaboration between Michael Stipe and Big Red Machine, "No Time for Love Like Now": www.youtube.com/watch?v=wSKM... And the joy-filled, soulful "Movin on Up" from www.youtube.com/watch?v=Snkj... Hope they move you too!

Baseball's next CBA negotiations are going to be a bloodbath, not so much because of fights between players and owners, but because of the internecine battles within each group. Just like in '81 and '94.

As I was saying... Williams' health is a question, is only under control for one more year, and netted a backend starter and big-league ready position player. The Padres would be better tomorrow if they made the same move.

David Jay @davidmjay.bsky.social · 13/12/2024
Not for nothing, but with all the talk about whether the Padres will trade Cease, it seems like they'd have to at least see what they could get in return for Suarez. They're probably more able to fill the hole that creates and would likely be able to bring back a big league position player.

RIP Merv Rettenmund, 81, who led a charmed baseball life as a popular player and hitting coach for 7 pennant-winning teams in Baltimore, Cincinnati, Oakland, and San Diego. Here’s my SABR bio on the “super-sub” with a big smile who knew just how lucky he was: sabr.org/bioproj/pers...
