I am not sure what this account is going to be. I am sure I will talk sports (Angels and Lakers mainly), but such things seem so trivial these days.

A man collapsed in the Oval Office yesterday. The internet got the story wrong.
My experience struggling to correct the record — including on Bluesky! — and the warning signs as AI, aggregation, and social media increasingly drive our news consumption.

100% This. Where are the real journalists who want to expose falsehoods and afflict the powerful?

Alas, with just the KC series to go, our Halos have gone a putrid 5-11 over this stretch. Brutal.

Day off today, so looking at the schedule and it really feels like this upcoming stretch (8/15-9/4) will let us know how meaningful the games will be in September: A's, Cubs, Reds, Rangers, Stros, and KC. All but A's are around .500 or above.

This is utterly tragic. Why is much of this country (specifically, this administration) terrified about scientific advances? We should be leading the charge and finding cures for the worst diseases that plague humankind, but instead we are killing innovation along with child cancer patients.

Here's how prosecutors described Ghislaine Maxwell in a pretrial motion during her criminal trial:
"The defendant's willingness to brazenly lie under oath about her conduct … strongly suggests her true motive has been and remains to avoid being held accountable for her crimes."

Great article by @samblum3.bsky.social on the Athletic today about Angels first round pick Tyler Bremner. Heartbreaking loss for the kid. I can't wait to cheer for him when he gets to the Show.

On MLB draft day, Tyler Bremner was thrilled to go second. And he wished his mom was there
Tyler Bremner was picked by the Angels on July 13. Three days earlier, his family had held a celebration of life for his mother, Jen.

I'm a democrat. And actually, I love my country. Some of what I do hate would include: corruption, abuse of power, self-enrichment at the cost of the country, misogyny, sexual predators, pedophiles, and authoritarians. Thus, I hate my country's President with the heat of a thousand suns.

My feelings about this Halos team heading into the trade deadline are all over the place. The team has floated a game below .500 for the past two months, so, logically, they should be sellers at the deadline. Getting as many prospects as possible for Ward, TA, Jansen...
