My congratulations to all Baseball Perverts. It was their "super bowl" last night and it seems they all had a very bad time (in their culture that's how you have a good time)

So. What’s made baseball steadying to my mental health this year is:
1. Something I can pay attention to where there is joy and something good regularly happens.
2. Low stakes as far as the wider world.
3. Low stakes day-to-day because there are 162 games in the regular season.

Unidentified men grabbing someone off the street and putting her in a car because she wrote an op-Ed. This as flatly authoritarian as anything we’ve seen in this country in a very long time.
Video of the international student at Tufts being arrested by "federal authorities" in Massachusetts has been released and it's terrifying.
They're not even uniformed officers. Just secret police thugs in hoodies and masks.
