New phone and wallet cards. 2025 was 1988 Donruss.

2026 is 1989 Topps for my phone, work phone, wallet, and bookmark.

Changing it to for Game 5 tonight... My favorite shortstop a a kid (after @OzzieGuillen), and a pitcher who led his team in WAR, only to lose to them in the 1988 WS.

Well, got my 2nd stripe last week, and this week marks 1 year since I started #BJJ...

I know that Bo gets all the love in 1990 Score, but this was always a very close 2nd for me.

Bought myself a box of 1990 Score as an early bday present, pulled Frank about halfway through. Bo was in the 2nd freaking pack. I could have cared less what was in the rest of the box. What do you say #cardsky?

RIP Chet Lemon. Love this 1981 Fleer rocking the collar. #cardsky

Great. Now we're going to get Deep Dish Eucharist.

The people who likened wearing a mask to slavery talking about shared sacrifice? GTFOH.
Rep. David Joyce on Trump saying girls should have fewer dolls: "The idea that the Christmas trade is already starting to slow down and there might be less around, I get it. I think the American people will understand that because the American people understand shared sacrifice."

Nope. I'm positive this is bad.

Is this bad? This seems bad...

As others have noted, the life of Carl Bosch is worth a look in these times. Fritz Haber demonstrated that nitrogen could be reduced to ammonia, but Bosch’s work turned that into a technology that changed the world with sudden new supplies of fertilizer (and of explosives). (1/8)

Why Kennedy’s “just asking questions” act on vaccines is so idiotic and disingenuous:
RFK Jr. thinks that a clinical trial should be done for the entire childhood vaccine schedule. Here’s why that will never happen.

1. You can’t do a randomized trial of something that we already know is safe and effective. There would have to be a placebo group that didn’t get vaxxed. Unethical.

Serious #bjj question. How does one deal with getting claustrophobic when rolling?

It never happened for the first few months when I started, and now it's happened 3 or 4 times in the last month.

The anti-CRT/DEI/WHITE movement predates the American education system. But don't take my word for it...

Read the primary sources

Hurry up. It might be illegal soon.
Primary Sources: How Black People Invented America's Education System
...And why the people who hate DEI, affirmative action and an educated population have always wanted to destroy it.

Went to a card show this weekend. Scored a butch of 1988 Donruss track packs for a buck. The dealer also had a couple of packs of year sweet ass 1988 Topps coins. Bought a pack for nostalgia and had a hell of a pull. #cardsky #junkwax

So, you may ask, why do I get so angry about the new liberal spin on RFK Jr, as in, "he gets some things right, so let's collaborate on those" or "we have to work with him because he has a huge following we need to reach"? Because I've seen this movie before. 1/

Late Christmas post. The wife and kids got me a bunch of junk wax packs as a gift. 1989 me was hyped by this pull. #cardsky
