@ToeTagginTambo DJ and Rahm are one person?

Just so much going on here... What do you notice?

@Novig Mini ditkas would beat both.

Would #1 seed Michigan Wolverines basketball beat the Washington Wizards starting five from last night? The Wizards Starting Five Last Night: •Bub Carrington (PG, 6’4) •Jamir Watkins (SG, 6’6) •Julian Reese (SF, 6’9) •Leaky Black (PF, 6’6) •Anthony Gill (PF, 6’10) Michigans Starting Five Tonight: •Yaxel Lendenborg (PF 6’9) •Morez Johnson Jr (PF 6’9) •Aday Mara (C 7’3) •Elliot Cadeau (PG 6’1), •Nimari Burnett (SG 6’5) What’s the final score look like? 👀

@Acyn Over/under on IQ is 92. I believe that would get two sided action.

Mullin: I believe sanctuary cities is not lawful. Some of these cities have international airports. If they are a sanctuary city, should they really be processing customs into their city? We need to have a really hard look at that. Baier: So you are saying that big cities that are sanctuary cities that have a big airport, they might lose their customs? Mullin: I'm going to be forced to make tough decisions.

@fooberz @CXCarroll Yep, this is the answer. There is a limit to the price of oil, unless the gop wants to create a dem supermajority. The OP seems to forget how sensitive Trump is to popularity.

@CXCarroll You didn't mention other US pain points that are very significant! Midterms in 6 months and even though your analysis of oil prices may be spot on, oil > $100 increases pain for us consumers. Public sentiment is starting to look at us like Darth Vader and evil empire...

I have a decent track record of predicting this conflict so far so here's where I see things going. (quoted tweet is from six months before we hit Fordow in 2025). Short 🧵

@CXCarroll @BadFaithComment Getting into the "called 12 out of the last two iran conflicts" territory.

@BadFaithComment Two more for you. There have been plenty of others. x.com/CXCarroll/stat…

@CXCarroll So.... $6/gal gas is going to win some elections for republicans in nov?

As to the long-term political future of Iran, there's a distinct possibility that the U.S. and GCC have moved beyond any idea of a negotiated settlement and are now making plans to support a large-scale domestic insurgency within Iran. /thread

Most schools want the young, hungry, and aggressive head coaches for this new era of college athletics with NIL Meanwhile at UNC? It's Bill Belichick and Michael Malone

@amock419 Or just anyone with the cash

The Big Ten has won three straight national championships in football and now are the national champions of men and women’s basketball. This new era of college athletics has been favorable to the Big Ten.

The dumbest person you know is being told 'you are absolutely right' by some LLM right now.

@JoeDoyleMiLB I don't follow college closely, but have they changed the bats to sound less ping-y?

Roch Cholowsky hit his 11th homer of the season today. It was also his hardest hit ball of the season at 112 mph. 111.3 was his previous best. He’s hitting .342/.471/.632 with a 1:1 BB:K ratio.

@DanRosenheck Harris (and I voted for her) was one of the worst candidates in history. She could not communicate naturally in public, the most rudimentary skill required in politics.

Agree with this. Incumbents lost everywhere in the wake of post-pandemic inflation. Harris ran a fine-not-great campaign, and lost ground in the polls during the final 2 months of the race. Dems would have needed a big candidate-quality advantage to overcome Biden’s unpopularity.

@EvanMiya What's your projection?

For all the marbles on Monday. Michigan is a wagon. Dan Hurley never loses this deep in the tournament. Something has to give.

@awfulannouncing I wish this guy was announcing me reaching the back of the fridge top shelf to get some baby carrots

The Jo Adell third HR robbery, on the Seattle broadcast... Aaron Goldsmith: "THERE'S NO WAY! THERE'S NO WAY!" Angie Mentink: "Stop it." Goldsmith: "JO ADELL IS HAVING THE NIGHT OF HIS LIFE! HE WENT INTO THE CROWD AND JUST ROBBED HIS THIRD HOME RUN!"

@steez33_ @_nateschwartz 8 to 12...

@Barrakuda53 @_nateschwartz It'd be closer to 8-12% of HRs, not league altering but noticeable

I will die on the hill if you end up on the other side of the wall with the ball, that should be a HR. you didn’t prevent the ball from clearing the fence

@steez33_ @_nateschwartz Yeah, like 30 per season, lol

@Barrakuda53 @_nateschwartz Bye bye home runs

@JoeDoyleMiLB Call me a hater, but mlb fences should have a min height of 8 feet

Jo Adell is having the greatest defensive night in the history of the sport of baseball.

@bryan_johnson Wait till you hear about radon.

ok I'm going to turn this into an experiment. > measure turf toxin levels: PFAS, heavy metals, PAHs > measure same toxins in my body > compare before/after turf removal > document remediation process 13k artificial turf fields in US. My kids played sports on them.

Guys, I’m an idiot. All this time I’ve spent trying not to die, I had toxic turf in my backyard. Artificial turf contains crumb rubber infill made from recycled tires, which leaches chemicals including PFAS, heavy metals, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. These compounds are linked to hormone disruption, carcinogenicity, and systemic inflammation. I don’t know how I missed it. It makes me question my basic competence in life. What gets me is that I try so hard to survey the world of potential idiocy. Then I find out there’s a monument to idiocy sitting right in front of my face that I was blind to. I’m removing the turf, yet I’m still stuck with this seemingly unsolvable problem of how to not be an idiot.

@SamEhrlich Can we get an update? 😏

For everyone saying "small sample" yesterday. It took 7 competitive swings for bat speed to become reliable across 579 batters in 2025.

@SamEhrlich Let's just get right to it.... What's your projected wrc+ for bichette rest of season?
