this report is really good stuff

I love these charts, which are fascinating just for thinking about data and storytelling

both charts a) display data correctly and b) tell you something true and important about the world

and they're very, very different www.citadelsecurities.com/news-and-ins...

Largest road win for UVA men’s basketball since they beat Clemson by 35 in Jan 2021.

Biggest in the non conference since beating UNC-Greensboro in Nov 2016.

Largest road win against a non-ACC major conference opponent ever.

You don't demolish the White House to build a much bigger presidential palace if you think you are only there until 2028

The conservative movement has turned against reality on every scientific issue of our time, from gun violence to climate change to epidemiology.

If campuses are ideologically homogenous, it's not because academia has ostracized conservatives. It's because conservatives have ostracized academia.

Oof. McKneely and Rodhe. It’s not surprising, but it hurts. Hope they find the right spot for them. #wahoowa

The projection machine.

Trump is the worst person to negotiate and he cheats all the time. On his wifes, on his business partners, on his employees, on his contractors.

It is so embarrassing and so angering that he is the President of the US.
Trump: "Canada doesn't pay for military. They give us nothing. And they are the worst people to negotiate with of everybody ... they cheat."

I think the Democratic Party should be led by people who think the Republican Party is bad. Try it for a bit and see what happens, you know? Just to mix things up a little.
A lot of delusion happening in that Schumer NYT interview, but this gets to the heart of it: he believes his Republican colleagues will come around and everything will be ok. Absolutely delusional.

I feel for Coach Sanchez, but this is the right decision for #uva.
3 hours after UVA's year ended with an ACC tournament loss, it announced interim coach Ron Sanchez wouldn't be retained.
"My desire was to do the best that I could with this group. If you ask me, ‘Do I feel like I did that?’ The answer is absolutely yes.”

Virginia will not retain interim basketball coach Ron Sanchez, who took over three weeks before the season began following Tony Bennett’s surprising retirement.

Since Feb 11, there have been 351 instances of two teammates playing at least 90 minutes together.

The two teammates with the best net rating in the NBA at 32.2?

Had the chance to go birding yesterday, and caught a brilliantly colored blue jay perching on top of a tree. But when the jay flew to the ground, suddenly it looked much more drab.

Why? 1/6 ⚛️🧪

Watching Cavs-Celtics and UVA alumni all over the court. And all getting praise from the announcers. Gotta love it.

I don’t complain about tv announcers and I love Randolph Childress. A Wake and ACC legend. But having him do a Wake game is comical. Might as well have the Wake radio guys do the game.

Virginia has the second worst defense in the ACC in conference games. Only 6-21 Miami is worse.
