The whole point of a salary cap, any salary cap, is to reduce the overall money that owners spend on players. Owners get more, players get less. They wouldn't be doing it if that wasn't the end goal.

Salary caps make owners richer. Period.
Kyle Tucker making $60 million a year while Paul Skenes makes $820k is the problem. That's the bad thing. A salary cap doesn't fix that, but it also doesn't hurt anyone who can be hurt.

Once again chiming in to point out that a world where half the top free agents are signing short term with opt outs as soon as next offseason is not actually a world where the top player agents expect a lasting lockout or a salary cap

US history has conclusively proved that when the cops kill somebody, the immediate project becomes coming up with some crime to convict them with after the fact to frame the killing as deserved, to make them at fault for their own murder.

It can be anything at all. Doesn’t even need to be a crime.

ICE has only existed since 2003. A Bush-era creation, it is a militarized federal secret police that has been imbued with the Supreme Court with the unconstitutional power to ignore the fourth amendment.

Abolishing it and salting the earth where it grew is the moderate stance.

Eberflus is both not old enough and not jacked enough to be an elite DC. This is congruent with the "Old/Jacked" DC theory by @benjaminsolak.bsky.social
Dallas Cowboys defensive coordinator Matt Eberflus was fired Tuesday after one season, according to team sources.

there are endless headlines about "grok apologizes" or "grok says it will be fixed" after it generated CSAM using pictures of minors and zero headlines about "grok being shut down" or "musk and xAI in big legal trouble" and I think something fundamental has broken here

So much of American history is just impulsive and extremely stupid elites, who don't believe in consequences because they have never personally experienced them, doing highly consequential stuff because they're bored or believe it might make them richer. I guess a lot of our culture, too.

the moderate position on prediction markets is that they need to be made illegal and the people responsible for them should be prosecuted, and i’m close to getting there on more ~traditional~ books as well

just completely insane that “lift the Cuban embargo” is not a politically tenable position in this country for the ostensibly left party. the Cold War ended 35 years ago but we still have to choke out a tiny island nation to please the worst people in Miami

The way the press is treating chatbots, like they have agency and they “know” things all of a sudden, crossed the line recently from dumb and obsequious to something else entirely. Treating them as alive and making conscious decisions is an almost religious belief. It won’t age well.

I like being an uncle for the holidays because: Mom and dad are responsible, and will discipline you. Grandpa and Grandma are indulgent, and will coddle you. But the uncle... the uncle is unpredictable. The niece and nephew cannot know what the uncle will do, because the soul of the uncle is CHAOS
