@cmikesspinmove.bsky.social @mattyfbrown.bsky.social x.com/ParkerLewes/... The footwork thing drove me crazy bc there was no reason for him to have sloppy feet. He mostly had clean feet yesterday.

@mattyfbrown.bsky.social @cmikesspinmove.bsky.social Catching up on Overload. The Lock discussion had me howling, having seen or heard pretty much every snap at Mizzou. The inconsistency... it starts with the footwork... but hoo. It boggles. Under center could be the best thing for him.

Ruby Bridges was 6-years-old when she stepped into the history books. Bravely accompanied by her mother, she was the first Black child to desegregate an all-white school in the South. It was not long ago… Today is her birthday. She is still with us. She is 72. Happy birthday, Ruby Bridges 💜

At South Carolina's flagship, the governor, a senator, and a former WH staffer inserted themselves into the university's Presidential hiring process, if you can call it that a process. It resulted in a comically unqualified hire. Funny how THAT didn't launch any 1600-word Atlantic think pieces.

One thing I learned the past few days... evidently, many ppl online went to high school with none but the most hyper-literate, genius-level classmates. 100% of them could flawlessly read whatever you shoved in their face and filmed. I am terribly impressed.

Taney has the higher career slugging percentage. But Roberts stays on base, beating Taney by enough on-base percentage to end up with the higher Dunning SCOTUS OPS+.

Using facial recognition tech, the Knicks surveilled a trans woman, tracking her every move out of fear she'd show up on MSG's tv broadcast And they can do it to any "enemy" of Jim Dolan, who's built his own deep state. From @noahshachtman.bsky.social & me @wired.com www.wired.com/story/madiso...

Famously vengeful Knicks owner Jim Dolan has long spied on people at his iconic arenas. WIRED goes deep inside the operation that allegedly tracked a trans woman, lawyers, protesters, and more.

Unfortunately, "Words that would end most presidencies," and similar charges, have too often resulted in an intensified focus on Trump as some kind of Pied Piper rather than the decades long degredation of the social forces that once could end presidencies in favor of a unitary executive.

In the midst of all this libidinal "kickin' ass," I am reminded of one of the many perfectly delivered lines by Morgan Freeman in Seven, modified for present circumstances. "It's impressive to see a national government feeding off its emotions."
