After the disastrous first day of the Battle of Shiloh. Pretty much how I’ve felt the last 2 days.

Few folks I have more respect for than MG Hertling.
Our values define who we are, how we act, what decisions we make as a people. Perhaps it’s time to remember what values define us.

So glad @thebulwark.bsky.social published the article I wrote on this subject today, on a day we give thanks.

Enjoy & provide your thoughts.
"Even a cursory reading of the country’s founding documents and great speeches makes clear that America is a political organization with a reliance on our values." How many of us can really say what they are?

Good thread about what happened to the previous joy of Twitter for sports info. Hopefully I can use Bluesky to get all my Pirates info in the spring.
i don't wanna talk about that "sports twitter is probably still fine why is everyone talking about sports here" post too much, but sheesh, that site had an insane frog boiling problem that i could feel affecting me even though i primarily used it to talk about sports and video games.
