Anecdotal- but I don't really care about this game as much. I'm for a couple of players but have no feelings about the teams.

I LOVE Ben Williamson's socks. The socks and hat (and Ben) are almost enough for me to become a Ray's fan.

I imagine people like him are good at baseball from like 5 years old so no, he has probably never had anything around him that's broken. He has probably been coddled and anything broken gets immediately fixed/replaced.

New — I wrote about Republicans beclowning themselves heading into the midterms with clearly bullshit narratives about James Talarico and Rep. Ilhan Omar, and how the favorable conditions for Dems have produced a noticeable shift to nipping deranged stories in the bud.

I have been considering getting a plug in hybrid for my next car (vs electric or just normal hybrid) and this is awesome information to have. I drive for work so I imagine I'll need gas more often but it's still heartening to see what's possible.

Execute him if that's the sentence. But do it the way a confident nation does: quietly, lawfully, and without giving him the stage he always wanted. Let him be forgotten.
l expect our leaders to show at least as much discipline as the nurses who had to care for him.
They keep telling us they are defending what makes America different. Every day, they make that difference harder to see.

What kind of monitoring equipment did she have on her (I think I heard there was an ECG?)? Were there sounds of her spitting up, vomiting, or gurgling? (I hear she had pneumonia so curious when that occurred in this fiasco). Were they there when EMTs arrived? If so what did that look like?

How did they confirm they had IV access, or did they try to confirm? Did they attempt to flush the setup with saline/flush or did they just use the drug? Was there a first aid kit in the room? How many medical professionals were present (vs guards/prison staff)? Did they just try in one arm or both?

It’s notable how many anti-trans activists who claim their actions are motivated by a desire to “protect women,” are currently attacking Jane Doe and defending the men who she says assaulted her. It’s almost like “protecting women” never had anything to do with it.

a little louder for the cheap seats in the back
One of the biggest myths is that men rape by mistake. Like, "Oh, they need consent training." But research is very clear: Sexual violence is not a mistake. It is an intentionally made decision by people who know they don't have consent. They just don't prioritize consent over things like status, power, domination, and sexual gratification.
For my research, I got a certificate of confidentiality from the National Institutes of Health, so my notes couldn't be subpoenaed. One of the reasons I call them perpetrators in my work is because every single person I interviewed confessed in that context. The first question I would ask them was, "When you received that email from Title IX that you were under investigation, did you know what it was about?" Every perpetrator I interviewed said "yes." If sexual assault were a miscommunication, you would be wondering, What have I possibly done wrong? That is not the way that any of them reacted because they knew.

Annecdotally, I've heard that the US/Canada trade war is horrible for asthmatic cats. Many US vets used to buy inhalers from suppliers in Canada because it was 10x cheaper. Now they're forced to buy inhalers in the states where the cost is prohibitive. Cats will suffer+die thanks to DT! #vetmed

When my father was faculty at Cornell he was stopped by the police chief in the street & asked who he was & where he was going. When he balked at the fact that no one but him, an Arab man, was being asked, the chief said “I’m just protecting students” Same guy failed to investigate 7 rapists.

FYI birders - I was curious about whether to keep using the Merlin app, but I am comfortable with it given this information
threads post from "squiresdujour":  "I use the Merlin app for my interest in birds, and it is wonderful.  Please understand that Merlin and the Lab of Ornithology at Cornell is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit conservation organization managed as part of Cornell's land grand programs, and is NOT part of the large private endowed college.  Let's please direct our well justified anger to the proper targets."
