If the average person getting $4k/mo from social security could have put that 12.4% of every paycheck into the S&P instead, they would currently be getting $32k/mo instead of $4k.
And their kids would continue to get that $32k/mo after they died.
Social Security is a scam.

@CaseyMattox_ We shouldn’t have two definitions of strike. It’s nuts. Either change the mlb rule or make the ABS box 3d. Both are very doable.
English
This should be part of the Rob Manfred indictment.
Rob Friedman@PitchingNinja
Umpire incompetence or a Rulebook/ABS Mismatch issue? 🤔 This pitch may have been both: -a Strike according the rulebook strike zone (3 dimensional/starting at the front of the plate), and -a Ball, according to ABS (2 dimensional/measured at the middle of the plate).
English
@BigMeanInternet Here’s how understand it. The statcast/abs box used to be at the front of the plate, now it’s in the middle. The strike zone remains a 3d cube over the plate. So, a pitch could be a strike yet not called a strike when challenged because it clipped the cube but not the box.
English
I don't think people understand that they changed the strike zone for the robots. This is a new strike zone. The TV box is real now but it was not real before.

@Nafe_nasutetsu It really depends on the emergency. Most don’t call for the big guns.

@Maguro_Maznaga lol. The same day 12 tons of KitKats go missing and beer mysterious circumstances, my feed is full of people denying the existence of ninjas. Coincidence? I think not.

Some days you can’t love social media enough. This is one of those days. It began like this. Someone stole 12 tons of KitKats.
And then the replies started coming in. Scroll down.

The only thing I can see the Americans getting in arguments with the Japanese over is their insistence on the metric system.
English
@JRamZ02 @steadycsa @BBGreatMoments Yes, I’m just saying a reasonable argument can be made for making them 4. Honestly though…how many teams have three all but guaranteed elite players at the top? None of those above them. That pulls their floor up much higher than the others. My money’s on them to finish #1.

@BGYKPA @steadycsa @BBGreatMoments You could literally make up those hypotheticals about every team, fact is they were the best lineup the past 2 years, and then added one of the best players in baseball to the same lineup this offseason. They’re easily top 2, and they’re not 2

@asobodesign I know nothing about this, but I’m team mushroom because I’m not a panda bear.

じゃあアメリカ人は、日本がずっとキノコ派とタケノコ派で内戦状態なのも知らないのか。あ、タケノコ派が優勢なんだけど。

20 years ago a printer couldn’t detect aftermarket ink cartridges and stop printing as a result. So there’s that.
Paul Tassi@PaulTassi
Setting up a new printer and it is amazing there have been exactly zero advances in printer technology in like 20 years

@SleeperOrioles If I were betting, I’d have bet on him hitting one off of Ober.

@ConorONeill_DI It’s a function of the strength of the hurler and the height of the ceiling. A young Larry Bird once did this in the Metrodome and it didn’t land until midway through the post game interviews.

How many seconds can come off a clock if you literally just chuck the ball into the air as high as you can?

@Strangeland_Elf Soda. We know how much a single serving of soda is in liters (It’s 2).

Americans only know how to use the metric systems for gun ammunition.

…本当に申し訳ないのですが。 単位はメートル法でお願いします。

@steadycsa @BBGreatMoments Meh. I disagree with it (they’re top two), but Freddie could finally show his age, Muncy has had his problems with consistency, Pages could regress, and Edman is nothing special. If that goes wrong and if the elite guys plus Smith can’t carry the load, maybe it makes sense.

@BaseballWRLD_ I want a reality show with those 0.2% in a room with those lovely 4.3% Minnesota fans.
English
That 0.2% of Dodgers fans have to be the most miserable people on planet Earth

More than 11,000 fans participated in our fifth annual MLB Hope-O-Meter. Overall, 72 percent reported they are optimistic about their favorite team this season, compared to 66 percent in 2025.

@pirooooon3 Whether or not the actions are right, I can’t say, but Iran is and has been the major supporter of terror in the region. Right now their defenses are down and their proxies are in bad shape. It’s a good time to teach them a bit of a lesson, if nothing else.

The Orioles’ clubhouse got a facelift this offseason with a new sound system, LED lights, shuffleboard and more.
A look at the layout including locker assignments and where players say there’s space for a ping-pong table that could be coming soon:

@AngelusNovus3 The early season is all about finding good relievers. It’s too early to write off anyone yet. Wells looked bad, but he’ll be fine. Hirano looked bad and maybe he won’t turn it around, but he’s earned a bit of a leash.

People are already railing against the Os bullpen, but they've been perfectly average so far, like a high 3s ERA or something
