we gotta do something about textualism man
I regret to inform you there’s a new post telling us we’re rubes who’ve missed the obvious & clear meaning of the Const’n for a century.

This is the type of post you make when your goal is to juice engagement from those who want nothing more than to be told their policy goals are const’l commands.

there is a room in my kind palace that plays an infinite loop of the split change he threw to strike out Adrian Gonzalez
Chris Davis was 0-for-8 with 5 strikeouts in this game but also pitched 2 scoreless innings to get the W. Yeah, that Chris Davis.

interpreting this as “best at being Side A Track 1” (and not “best songs that happened to be Side A Track 1”):

Blitzkrieg Bop
Liquid Swords
Modern Kicks
Hardcore UFO’s
MYSTERY

HM to Doomsday, which would easily make the list if skits didn’t count
Top 5 Side 1, Track 1s

more reports are coming in suggesting that this may be “the most cohesive expression yet from the SoCal fivesome”. more updates to come on this ongoing situation
early indications suggest Militarie Gun may have “finally put it all together”. we’ll continue monitoring this situation as it develops

The Chillman coming out game 1 of the 2014 ALDS throwing absolute gas and blowing away Miguel Cabrera and the Tigers is an all-time baseball memory

-Hunter Harvey

-Tanner Scott
-Keegan akin
-Brenan hanifee
-Tobias Myers

saw a post asking about the biggest albatross in MLB right now and unfortunately the correct answer is “Mike Elias’ ego”

if the Orioles fire Elias before the ASB I will buy a David Rubenstein bobblehead on eBay no matter the cost

this has been true since day 1 and it is why I have been banging the Fire Elias drum since before the pandemic
I still believe that Mike Elias wants to win while being clever. He'd rather let someone walk than make a bad signing. To him the fun isn't winning, it's trying to outsmart everyone else. I can't think of any other reason they wouldn't have spent their owner's money

this article is an ad for a gig work company (upwork). the “study” it refers to was commissioned by upwork and its chief takeaway is not that the “expected productivity gains” require “leveraging freelancers”. it’s not saying “stop using AI”, it’s saying “stop having employees”. truly grotesque

watched it again last night. still hits
mr. potter: now george you will recall I am the Villain of this town. I hate you for being too good of a person

george: n-now see here mr. potter!

me: yeah you fuckin tell him george
there are a lot of criticisms to be made of this movie and basically every one of them is valid. i do not care. to me it is a perfect film. pump that maudlin sentimentality directly into my veins
