@JomboyMedia "Do we have a balk called on Gausman?" Maybe if you guys were paying attention to the actual game instead of yapping about the 1977 opening day roster...

Wow, a 2025 study found you could connect Craigslist entering a city with a decline in local newspaper staffing, leading to a decline in politics coverage, which in turn led to a decline in readership, which they connect to more partisan voting and extreme candidates.

@tysonbrody The econometrics on this are very solid as well: academic.oup.com/restud/article…

@micyoung75 You seem to be under the impression this court still cares about stare decisis.

John Elk left his tribe, moved to Omaha, found work, paid taxes, and tried to register to vote. He argued he had subjected himself entirely to American law. The 1884 Supreme Court said that was not enough — tribal membership meant his allegiance was to a sovereign outside federal jurisdiction, so birth within US territory did not make him a citizen. The administration is now using that reasoning to argue that undocumented immigrants also owe allegiance to a foreign sovereign and therefore their American-born children are not citizens. The problem is that the same Justice who decided Elk — Horace Gray — later drew that distinction himself, in Wong Kim Ark, writing that the tribal sovereignty rationale “had no tendency to deny citizenship to children born in the United States” of non-Native parents. The National Congress of American Indians filed a brief saying this use of Elk “betrays a lack of understanding” of Native American law. The precedent is being pulled from a context its own author said doesn’t transfer. SCOTUS hears arguments Tuesday.

Looking to limit birthright citizenship, Trump turns to an 1884 Supreme Court ruling against a Native American. nbcnews.com/politics/supre…

Wow. This might the most unproductive, unhelpful, rude, and borderline deranged set of posts I’ve ever encountered on this app, which is saying A LOT. If you’re looking for an echo chamber I’d suggest Bluesky.

Huge supporter of AI upscaling as it’s different than the generative AI horseshit, and we need to distinguish the two as different things. Oh, what’s this?

@JomboyMedia When is the last time anyone saw a successful pick-off throw to second? Not an actual pick, a throw that the second baseman actually catches.
