This is Dapple. She was found as a stray with teeth falling out due to severe dental disease, plus a painful knee injury. Thanks to your support of our merch, @15outof10.org was able to cover the surgeries to remove her teeth and repair her leg. She's now toothless and thriving in her forever home ❤️🩹

Which conferences have the strongest home-field advantage in conference games?
Congrats to the Pac-12 on a perfect 1–0 start, but it’s the MAC that stands out. Home teams win nearly 70% of the time!

New today at Science Advances from @kshoub.bsky.social and me. We revisit the question of whether a local tragedy (mass shooting) influences voter behavior. They do, at least at the local level, with some important caveats and implications for policy. Short thread...

The World team already feels like it's at advantage considering that they'd already have SGA, Doncic, Jokic, and Wemby.
I don't think this NBA all star format is going to work very well, but this is what we get. Positionless all stars has the potential to be both good and bad (via NBA PR)

I went deeper into the at-bats where Luis Ortiz is accused of throwing balls on purpose.
1) These pitches didn't just compromise games. They helped flip them. Twice.
2) It's the player props, man

Just reboot the continuity again. The Craig films kept Dame Judi Dench if you want to keep any of the other elements from the previous series.
James Bond’s death in No Time to Die is causing a nightmare for the next film. Writers are stuck because Bond “was blown to pieces.”
Anthony Horowitz, author of three 007 novels, says:
