I have been trying to explain what a journalist is, what they do, and why, and why they are different from talking heads, pundits, influencers, commentators, activists and politicians.

This is a journalist.

As seen in front of scores of multi-million dollar homes in Menlo Park. For the record, if you are against affordable housing projects because they're "not the right project," you are not for affordable housing. You are the problem

So JJ McCarthy's just gonna keep getting injured until the Vikings pick up his 5th year option because they haven't seen enough to know he's not the guy, huh?

Sooo, they're gonna sit out a year waiting on guys who may or may not be available or make it through the year healthy? Got it

Ok, and?

I think the NYPost is using AI, y'all

Ronald Acuna hit a solo home run with the Braves down 4-1 and ESPN's home page described it as "cutting the Yankees lead in half." Math education in this country is dead @dszymborski.fangraphs.com

From @theathletic.bsky.social: The NBA Draft should be abolished, our columnist writes. What if a player could choose his NBA team instead of a team choosing him? Imagine the drama? Eliminating the draft would also eliminate all tanking. nyti.ms/4ekWMSn

@johnhollinger.bsky.social thinking about guys who "learned" how to shoot. I can't recall anyone who was a bad free throw shooter (college or nba) who became a good shooter in the nba. Anyone you can remember?
