For thirty years I worked in the post-Soviet successor states in Central Asia and observed over and over again precisely the cycle that Bill Kristol describes. Corruption leads to authoritarianism, directly. The path is utterly predictable.

I'm at a different game but this one is off the chain. A top 5, 6A Texas team vs. A perennial top 5 team that had a tough regular season. @sickoscommittee.org should pay attention to this one.

Can't believe I am saying this but Bill de Blasio is terrific on CNN. Embracing the message that Mamdani had and good analysis.

Voting NO on every single constitutional amendment in Texas today felt empowering. I have no confidence that the state will manage a $3 BIL dementia research fund since the GOP is now full on anti-science. The rest were for things that are already illegal or we don't need.

I teach in a nanny state. I was just informed that I can no longer use Seterra.com, the site that has geography games because it can not comply with Texas Bill HB18. So, to keep kids safe, no more geography games. This place hates teachers and is run by morons.

GeoGuessr is a geography game which takes you on a journey around the world and challenges your ability to recognize your surroundings.

Runs allowed by Dodger starting pitchers this series:
Snell - 1
Yamamoto - 3
Glasnow - 3
Ohtani - 2
Sorry hang on that's *hits* allowed by Dodger starting pitchers this series.
Dodger starters also have three home runs this series, which is odd because pitchers no longer hit.

Ugh. The beagle learned his yearly lesson. If you, said beagle, are in the flowers in the morning where there are a gazillion bees when you are chasing lizards, you beagle may have some very angry bees sting you in the face. Poor guy apparently is in a LOT of pain too.
