Now we can move on to wondering about how many games under .500 the Orioles will end up at next year.

Something maybe worth noting is that all the frog costumes and signs and good-natured memeing came about because a wide spectrum of Americans saw someone in direct, brave confrontation with ICE—getting pepperballed and standing their ground—and thought “that’s awesome. That person is a hero”

Historians of the future: Rest assured, millions of us know all this in real time. We are horrified, shocked, enraged, and ashamed. We are acting, in a thousand ways, to oppose it. This cannot, and will not, be how the United States ends. trib.al/EOixNrF

Ok THIS is the last inning I’ll watch.

Is this where we start betting on how many innings?

Earlier I was walking in my Brooklyn neighborhood past a bar and I heard a whoop, and I grimaced, then I peeked in at the TV and saw a Blue Jay on first, and was relieved. NYC is full of fans from everywhere. #GoOs #someday

I may try to comment on the NY state energy plan before public comment is over in a few days. I feel like the spirit of “public comment” is lost when the documentation is so voluminous that it’s only going to be industry insiders commenting…

Isn’t Trump a hotels guy, why can’t he be a generous host, providing the highest of hospitality?

Alice’s Restaurant but for blocking ICE.

But it’s easier when the lunch counter is stationary, when the draft office is in a piece of real estate.

Next Dem primary, it’s not about “no money from PACS” instead it should be “I will never sell your data to another campaign, but I WILL send intro emails to you encouraging you to follow other campaigns, like a human being who’s actually looking to build a political following.”

“Everyone’s talking about affordability.” Just thinking about how trends in the discourse depend on real measurable signals of opinion: elections!

Zohran used the word affordability, won. Absent that, would we still be in post-Nov-2024 “price of eggs” rhetoric?

So… we already have abundance? High standard of living. Super cheap energy. Infinite entertainment.

This was my feeling upon leaving NYC for a trip to family in Iowa. There’s So Much Stuff And Space. And we drive around at super speeds to… go get a donut?

But loss aversion!

my takeaway from climate week nyc is that "climate storytelling" is a little too much "we must reimagine our deepest souls in relationship to mother nature and the moral abyss of the polycrisis into which we must now stare" and not enough "ok but get a heat pump"

Disney execs hastily assembling Andor S3 about a group of charismatic Coruscant businessmen who just keep their head down and work with the Empire until the Battle of Endor and then say they were actually against the Empire all along and everyone cheers

1/x 🧵 🔌💡 #Greensky. Hey climate peeps! Here’s a local victory to celebrate, and some lessons from it. Last night, the Town of Poughkeepsie, NY, voted to overturn its 18-month moratorium (6 months, renewed twice) on grid-scale battery energy storage systems (BESS).

An extra reason for an electric car over a [prius]: no stolen catalytic converters!! With either the higher insurance premiums for comprehensive coverage or the $3k replacement.

So… Saturdays in the Streets? “Hands Off” but weekly?

Weather is only getting warmer.

It’s not like any of us get LESS angry each week. Numbers would build.

A weekly block party, in every town, against the tyrant. Bring lunch. Bring signs.

A show of popular will.

I've been clear: if President Bukele doesn't want to meet here in D.C., then I intend to go to El Salvador this week to check on Kilmar Abrego Garcia's condition and discuss his release.

Kilmar was illegally ABDUCTED and deported by the Trump Admin. He must be brought home NOW.
