Hey, ProPublica reporter Jake Pearson here. I’m taking over the account to tell you about my new story. For months, I posed as a problem gambler on DraftKings to test the company's "responsible gaming" safeguards. Spoiler alert: They made me a VIP — and I lost $10K. Here's how it all went down. 🧵

Having egg-shaped ball sports year round between NFL, NCAAFB, AFL, AFLW, NRL, and UFL has given me a comfort I didn't know was still available to me. Gotta find a union league or two now to follow! Picked up cricket too. IPL was hype but PSL stole my heart this season. Can't wait to see both again!

Tekken commentary has 3 issues that I believe are both longstanding + fixable: the verbiage used, the lack of technical/storytelling depth, and the absence of a real pathway for new developing commentators to progress towards. It currently sits in an awkward, unnecessary (imo) middle ground. 🧵 /1

I don't know if presenting an ecosystem backed by blood money as a career-development blueprint for FGC players is the move that we should be making. Failing to point out that the capital isn't politically neutral because one is dependent on that ecosystem proves several points that have been made.

Polytoken 0.2.0 is publicly released! Even though there isn't all of a website yet. An entire thirteen of people have been using it all day and nobody has yelled at me yet. You can get it at docs.polytoken.dev/installation (forgive the mess; WIP) or you just `brew install polytoken/tap/polytoken`!

Elon Musk spent $290 million getting Trump elected. During this midterm cycle, he's spent $85 million. In total, that’s 0.0375% of his $1 trillion net worth. Oligarchs can rig the system at the expense of everyone else, and only spend pennies doing so. We must get Big Money out of politics.

It’s hilarious how telling my neighbors' politics are just by their actions. One neighbor got mad at someone for warning us about HOA inspections, yet stayed silent when the HOA president personally targeted a resident for eviction and another with $2k+ in fines. Sure enough... isa Republican. 💀💀

The year I first started following AFL, my team (Go Dogs!) won the flag. Started following again this season after 10yrs and not only are the Dogs 3-0 but Kylie Minogue was announced for the grand final. I'm not saying it's all because of me, but I'm not saying it isn't either.

I picked basketball + hockey back up in 2025; why not pick up cricket AND another sport in 2026? AFL season has started, so footy it is! Got my team already too (Western Bulldogs)! Any resources would be appreciated. Excited to learn more about the history, current narratives, and styles of play!

My ICQ UIN is 7231680. That number is burned into my consciousness.

I can tell you the difference in audible dial-up handshakes between 1200, 2400, 14.4 kbps modems. I needed a edu email address to join Facebook after my university was admitted.

I think this year I might actually follow IPL instead of just trolling old co-workers by stanning MS Dhoni like I had several years back. 👀 Any resource recommendations? I'm starting to get a (very) basic understanding of the rules and am still deciding on a team... CSK maybe?
