I'm curious, do you make your own preserved lemon or do you buy it? I've only bought them.

Today's pundits are terminally online. They have a distorted view of reality (and the constant self-interested need to churn out takes). Very little that they have to say is relevant to a thoughtful study of politics.

I thought this might be just the rantings of a senile 79 year-old, but he has always been like this apparently.

Elmer Valo – Society for American Baseball Research

Thanks for posting this. I knew the name, but nothing about him. This is a great bio. Sounds like an all-around great guy: sabr.org/bioproj/pers...

De Cecco is not subject to the tariffs.

I see your point, but this team also employs Blake Treinen and Miguel Rojas, who bullied Jazz in Miami.

What kind of guitar is that? I only have an acoustic guitar and am in the market for an electric guitar.

I agree for next year. But, you've changed the terms of your argument. You started by complaining about THIS year.

Gil would have been the #4 starter if Cole hadn't been hurt. Name one team other than the Dodgers that had a better #4 starter coming into the season.

15 wins and 3.0 WAR for Gil. I suspect that you cannot be reasoned with.

Gil won Rookie of the Year last year and Schmidt was a perfectly good 4th starter this year.

I don't think that you could get majorities for those in the House and the Senate, especially the last one.

I don't think that are many legal theorists other than Dworkin who would disagree.

In the short run, maybe, but I'm hard-pressed to come up with any harm that the Republicans could do without the filibuster that they haven't already done with the filibuster. Maybe cut SNAP and Medicaid more, but that would hurt red states more than blue states.

They're betting that educational polarization will outweigh ethnic identity--that Hispanic voters with low levels of education will see those apprehended or hassled as different.

You have the luxury of a lot of time on the Internet. You are not marginalized.

Marginalized people do not have the time to carefully review Congressional roll call votes.

I don't think that this matters. Nobody's vote is going to be affected by this. In fact, it probably helps a tiny bit in that they can't be accused of a party-line anti-Kirk vote. Might be a few indy voters who don't know Kirk and have sympathy for his family.

They are not an intelligently-run organization. Two outrages in two days-this and the Kirk scoreboard yesterday. I'm not very enthusiastic about watching the game tonight.

You're like a broken record. I see your point, but, man, is it getting tedious. I don't think repeating yourself over and over again is going to win any converts at this point.

Are there academics who still think that a tie is a necessary part of professional academic attire? My God, how old would you have to be to think that?

I see the Husserl reference. Is a crisis still a crisis if it has lasted for almost 100 years?

This is good advice, but there is a certain type of faculty personality that will never accept it.

I would love to see him try to define "Blueskyism." It would be a farce.
