Asked about the slow-developing market for position players this winter, Scott Boras jokes:

Highly recommend applying to work the 2026 Census!

I worked the 2021 census as an enumerator and learned so much! Got a real snapshot of the people who live in my community!

This large 2024 study shows a positive connection between the use of GLP-1s and depression and suicidal ideation. I started on a GLP-1 this year for diabetes and definitely had worse depression/irritability, and both my GP and my GI doc were surprised.

The levels of grift in the hate-your-body economy continue to reach for new levels of creative destruction with the onset of GLP-1s. I’m watching them spin up a “loose skin” panic in real time.

Not crazy to say there was a much clearer criminal case against MBS, who ordered the murder of an American newspaper columnist, than there is against Maduro.

I think my least favorite quality in a person, one that is so often praised as an asset or virtue, is: "doesn't take no for an answer." We're living through an extended nightmare of what that looks like when brought to its logical conclusion.
