It's rapidly heading that way. I have 0 faith in this team to win on the road right now (and little faith at the best of times) and they sure aren't setting themselves up for many home games in the playoffs at this point.

If you told me Snyder played 45 min, but both Obed and Cristian played 90... I would've thought Brian was trying to bring back the the wide 4-3-3.

Joseph Weizenbaum said “The myth of technological and political and social inevitability is a powerful tranquilizer of the conscience. Its service is to remove responsibility from the shoulders of everyone who truly believes in it. But in fact there are actors”

Paying a premium to have your kid hooked up to the data extraction machine.

Also the work: erasing culture and replacing it with slop. It’s a fascist project, full stop.

California and Florida are on opposite ends of the school-closure spectrum and the differences in test scores are a wash.

Some individual schools and districts definitely stayed closed too long but it just isn’t the case that this is some huge, obvious, foreseeable blunder.

Exactly, the entire argument for this narrative is that kids rarely die of COVID. That’s true, but it wasn’t the justification for the policy. Teachers *do* die of COVID and kids *do* spread COVID.

Some studies find school closures were the most effective intervention for preventing cases!

The right is pushing this narrative because it’s the only place they can blame liberals — their actual goal — and gain purchase among elites.

The *actual* mistakes during the pandemic all originate on the right: lax lockdowns, weak mitigations and low vaccine uptake

It's unconscionable that in a time of such grave peril for a vulnerable minority, one who has borne the brunt of all Trump's hatred and extremism in executive order after executive order (and I didn't even scratch the surface btw) that a single Democrat is making trans women in sports their focus.

So, when a Democrat makes their only statement on trans issues about trans women in sports, they are saying that this is their priority on trans issues - not restoring our equality under the law but joining Republicans in eroding it.

Trans people are rapidly losing access to healthcare. It is unobtainable for trans youth in most of the country, and adult care is also under assault by congress and the Trump administration.

The only Dems for whom this is a priority are in state office. No national Dem is talking about it.

In some states, as a trans man who passes for male, I'm legally banned from using a men's restroom but practically banned from using a women's. My choice is between breaking the law and being arrested for breaking it.

Few Democrats are talking about how much trans people have lost, and how quickly.

Trans people have been expelled from the military and punished and humiliated throughout. We're fighting in court to retain a right to accurate US Passports. Books mentioning us are banned in classrooms in much of the country. In FL, trans teachers are required by law to misgender themselves.

I mean that literally - no one is discussing the massive loss of rights trans people have experienced throughout the country.

When Dems talk about trans women in sports, they're not just giving ground on sports. They're giving ground on everything, bc sports bans were the big issue 3 years ago.

Many people who follow me will already know that the biggest harm is allowing Republicans to ignore fairness and science and solidify a bonkers definition of trans people as "really" members of our birth sex.

Not going to rehash that - let's talk instead about something no one is discussing.

I have real questions about his ability to sustain this wrt the need to make sales to generate GAM for cap purposes but this 2nd half of the season has been an absolute victory lap for the work he's put in to build this roster.

I respect Craig, still don't respect Adrian.
