my go-to bit when talking to white sox fans is "if they beat the yankees we simply have to accept catholicism as the one true religion" but it doesn't get any laughs, is this joke played out in chicago or?

Incredible. First Secretary Mullin claimed that DHS had identified 15,903 noncitizens on Nevada’s voter roll. Then DHS officials told a skeptical Nevada, no no no, that’s just people we flagged. Here are the names of 185 people we KNOW aren’t citizens. All 185 were citizens. DHS got 100% wrong.
When the Department of Homeland Security sent Nevada a list of 185 names last month that it claimed identified noncitizens who had been improperly allowed to register to vote, state election officials got to work.
On Tuesday, the state sent a strongly worded rebuke to the federal government: Every single person on the list was a lawful citizen.
"As for the 185 individuals, our records indicate that they were citizens," Greg D. Ott, a deputy attorney general in Nevada, wrote, according to a copy of a letter sent to Department of Homeland Security officials obtained through open records requests.
"You have provided nothing of substance to suggest otherwise."Following the meeting, Ms. Vogt sent a clarifying email to Nevada officials. "I also wanted to be sure I clarified that we did not reduce the 15,903 to 185," she wrote. "We've manually reviewed some of the 15,903 and confirmed 185 are not U.S. Citizens."
Now, Nevada officials are saying even that 185 number is wrong. They also took issue with a letter D.H.S. sent them in early September, in which the agency reiterated its initial claims about nearly 16,000 noncitizens on the rolls and pressured state officials to review each case in a letter to Nevada officials in early September.

Allowing the most powerful segment of society to opt out of public services inevitably makes public services worse. This is why the existence of private schools inevitably makes public schools worse. A simple fact that seems hard for many to admit. www.hamiltonnolan.com/p/private-sc...

One of the things I know about writing is this: spend it all, shoot it, play it, lose it, all, right away, every time. Do not hoard what seems good for a later place in the book or for another book; give it, give it all, give it now. The impulse to save something good for a better place later is the signal to spend it now. Something more will arise for later, something better. These things fill from behind, from beneath, like well water. Similarly, the impulse to keep to yourself what you have learned is not only shameful, it is destructive. Anything you do not give freely and abundantly becomes lost to you. You open your safe and find ashes.

Before any politician or public figure responds to a question about what trans people can and can’t do—from a political opponent, from a credulous journalist, from a goading debate moderator—it is important that they stop and say: First of all, this issue is not real, it is manufactured for the purpose of stoking and preying upon bigotry, and treating it as legitimate is incredibly dangerous. This is the same sort of demonization that has given rise to all of history’s greatest atrocities. We believe in human rights and equality and we will not put that up for discussion. This is the immaterial nonsense that the world’s richest man wants us talking about so that we do not talk about confiscating his ill-gotten wealth. This is a desperate attempt by a bunch of bigots to make the rest of us complicit in their abuse of less powerful people, to distract us while they pick everyone’s pockets. This is all bullshit.

If one thing is wrong with politics, then it's the idea that activism must make people as scared as possible about a problem in order to achieve anything at all. What we get is huge amounts of disinformation getting spread by people thinking they are doing THE RIGHT THING(TM) - and complete apathy.

I've been watching a fair bit of 80s and 90s basketball lately and it's a good reminder that basketball has never been more fun or better than it is now. Everything. You see the occasional mind-boggling thing from elite players in old games, but on the whole, it's just not as good.
