What saddens me most is that enough American people were too credulous, gullible, and uncritical as to vote this disgusting fraud into office not once, but twice. All those people may discover the hardest way how hard it is to take Mulligans when it comes to electing a leader.
The Dodgers beat the Blue Jays in these categories: HR, BB, GIDP, W, SV, CG, and probably the most important- WPA.

Caleb Joseph wasn't wrong to say the Jays were better. The difference was timing- that's all. I don't think that's luck or skill or 'clutch'. It's #baseball.

Today I wake up sad, feeling for my little team that just barely couldn't, particularly for Mark Shapiro, oddly, because one other team of his got to a #WorldSeries Game 7, and they too lost in extras. 😢🩵😢

The excuses made for in office work are rarely anything but spurious 'humanity' covers for shitty motives indifferent to actual human needs.

There are three #BlueJays players I've believed in when many did not: Ernie Clement, Nathan Lukes, and Vladimir Guerrero Jr.

I compared one to Cal Ripken, another to Alex Gordon, and another to Miguel Cabrera.

I feel like my comparisons were not asinine.

Go Blue Jays!!!

If the Trump regime are Nazis, ironically, our only hope for freedom in this world is China and its allies. China is Britain in this comparative scenario. How crazy is that?

The key problem of #AI is that it cannot do the other three things, at all in some cases.

#AI feels much like Ozymandias' statue right now, while it was being built- except that we are well aware of our potential fate, and our 'best and brightest' keep charging ahead like lemmings over the cliff.

Trump's fascist regime continues...

Republicans don’t need a single democratic vote to fund their regime. Here’s why. Please share widely.

For today, I don't care about politics, about the injustices in our world. I put my blinders on and revel in the simplicity of sport, of my beloved #BlueJays winning the AL East for the first time in a decade. 💙🩵💙

This perfectly encapsulates how utterly backwards the USA is right now.

The Epstein files are important and there are already countless reasons to distrust and discredit Donald Trump. A thread 🧵 #TrumpCrimes #NeverForget

This is what I've been warning Americans on here of, for too many months:

I researched every attempt to stop fascism in history. The success rate is 0%.
Once they win elections, it's already too late.

In lighter news, it took me 41 years to realize that Wham!'s "Make it Big" is pretty much a Motown album made by pretty white boys. It's an enigma, capable of being terrible and wonderful by turns. 🩵

The false promise of #tech advancement has long been that it will make life easier, work hours fewer, allowing for increasing leisure. That's been steadily manipulated into surrendering rights, creativity, intelligence, and health instead. It's been a great lie so far, and #AI might be the endgame.

It is August 13, and the Colorado Rockies could win out the rest of the season and still finish behind the Milwaukee Brewers, continuing a recent trend of increasing disparity that should be a red flag to #MLB.

I love a clever line in a novel. This one gave me a giggle: "She thought she was anorexic because, when she looked in the mirror, she did indeed see a fat person."

'Indeed' is heavy lifting here

While it reads like a pipe dream, it is still worth aspiring toward.

I wish I could credit the creator, but many don't sign their work these days.

What I really don't understand about the USA justice system is how there can be evidence pertaining to a case that is withheld. That's obstruction of justice, clear and simple. It makes no sense that there are any files- JFK, Epstein, etc- somehow held. It's damning to the powers that be. #Epstein

I have tinkered with #AI since its early days, so I have enough familiarity and perspective to say I've had it. Too much evidence is building against it: unregulated development, studies showing it makes us dumber, negative effects on the environment, copyright infringement... and on and on. Bye, AI

Recently, my book THEY CALLED US ENEMY was banned – again – in Tennessee. Book bans are out of control. Huge parts of American history are being restricted. To join me in standing up for the freedom to read, go to pen.org/action. @penamerica.bsky.social @topshelfcomix.bsky.social @idwpublishing.com
