NEW: It's now more lucrative to have a losing sports team than a championship team. We examined the Boston Red Sox to see how private equity and cost cutting invaded sports. In this era, teams want to sell good players for profit more than they want to have a good season.

We are laying siege to the island of Cuba, turning off the lights in homes, hospitals, and the country's most critical infrastructure. These are war crimes: lethal, cruel, and criminal acts of collective punishment. It is sociopathy dressed up as foreign policy.

A huge misunderstanding that people have is that an MLB batter should be protecting against every 2K pitch that could possibly be called a strike. An MLB batter shouldn’t even be protecting against all ACTUAL strikes. To do so would mean increasing your chase rates to an absurdly high level. And the likelihood a batter has a positive result (foul ball or a hit) on a perfectly executed two strike pitch is very low. Couple these two FACTS together, and anyone arguing otherwise means one of two things - you genuinely didn’t know this until now or you have an ideal floating around your head that doesn’t match reality. Juan Soto has the best eye in baseball. He’ll strike out looking many times this year. And that’s BECAUSE he has such a good eye. He was unlikely to do much with a perfectly executed two strike pitch. And by taking it, he cuts down on chases and gives himself the opportunity for the ump to call it a ball. Every single argument contrary to these facts is so disproven by reality is absurd these conversations exist, but we’ll still be having them decades from now 🙃

Beware of any Christian movement that acts as though the world is full of enemies to be destroyed rather than full of neighbors to be loved.

If Bernie's 5% annual wealth tax on billionaires had been enacted in 2012, Elon Musk would be worth less than $365 billion instead of the $834 billion that he's worth today. He'd still be the wealthiest man alive & every senior would have dental, vision & hearing under Medicare.

We’ve spent $8 trillion in the Middle East That’s 100 X annual federal spending on roads and bridges Picture how great our country could be if we’d spent that $ here Imagine how affordable groceries & housing would be if we hadn’t printed all that $ grok.com/share/bGVnYWN5…

I wish we lived in a world where I didn't feel constantly compelled to post this video, but until then here's Tony Benn speaking on war with clarity and moral conviction that you won't see from the evil people running the world today

A couple years before October 7 there were mass nonviolent protests in Gaza to which Israel responded by having snipers en masse shoot out the legs of peaceful marchers. What you are saying is you wanted Palestinians to be happy with being murdered while the world was silent
