Bonus post: go get a Library Card. Walking back into the public library after not being in one for an embarrassingly long time healed me

Got my required reading for that dinner Im having with an on-and-off Astros analyst 📖

The New Bill James Historical Baseball Abstract (2001) by Bill James

The original in 1985 is said to be the birth-tome of sabermetrics, so I thought it necessary to brush up on my day off.

Just in case anybody thought Nancy Mace (aka The Other Nancy or Nancy #2) was a good person after she came out aggressively against pedophiles here's a reminder of what she's normally up to.

why it got three eyes

that's an awful sign

@tjstats.ca Mr. Pitching Guy, does this image strike the fear of god in you like it does me?

[Interviewer] That was a really incredible goal you just scored. What was going through your mind?

[Hockey player] I have no fucking idea dude

Rangers could use a .25 ppg player in the midst of one of the worst scoring droughts in recent memory?...

TRANSCRIPT OF CARTOON This cartoon has four panels, each showing a different scene. In addition, there’s a small “kicker” panel under the fourth panel. PANEL 1 The panel shows a counter at a fast food restaurant. We can see a couple of customers, and a couple of workers. The workers are wearing hats that very vaguely resemble hamburger buns. A sign on the wall shows a smiling hamburger with eyes, below the caption “Soilent Green YUM.” A smaller sign says “SAFETY” in larger letters followed by tiny print, which says “is a word we use a lot so you can’t sue us.” The worker at the cash register is turning to speak directly to the reader. WORKER: To get an official photo I.D., I have to go to the nearest government office, which is 90 miles away, and I don’t have a car, and even if I did my boss won’t give me a weekday off. PANEL 2 We’re in what looks like someone’s back yard. In the foreground is a garden, with some sort of plant being grown in tidy rows. An elderly woman is kneeling on the ground in front of the garden, wearing a floppy straw hat, an apron with a floral patter, and holding a trowel. She speaks directly to the reader. WOMAN: I can’t get I.D. without a birth certificate. But when I was born home births didn’t get birth certificates. PANEL 3 A mover wearing jeans and a black tank top is carrying a sofa as he’s talking to the reader. MOVER: The state charges $60 for a driver’s license…. but first I’d need a copy of my birth certificate, which is $30. I can’t afford 90 dollars to vote! PANEL 4 This panel shows the interior of a coffee shop. A man and a woman sit together at a table. They're both looking at their devices, him annoyed, her dismissive. MAN: Why wouldn’t anyone be able to get an I.D.? Idiots! WOMAN: People like that don’t deserve to vote. SMALL KICKER PANEL UNDER THE BOTTOM OF THE CARTOON The man from panel 4 yelling at Barry MAN: If it’s easy for me it must be easy for everybody! That’s just science!

No Taxation Without Representation, right? American taxpayers covering tariffs that we didnt vote on is an illegal tax, no matter how loud he is about it.

BREAKING: The Department of Education has ended its directive that attempted to restrict diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts in schools nationwide.

This is a victory for academic freedom and education equity.

Preposterous; think of the plight that the poor shareholders of hasbro snd wotc are facing; they might not be able to afford a third yacht subscription if you don't pay 3x the price for a single. Have a heart.

/s fucking massive huge angry S

Holy fuck, variable pricing on a set supply of singles based on how quickly they sell and arbitrary number. This is Hunger Games shit. Spinning it like a great opportunity is fucking rancid marketing propaganda. This is FOMO at peak monetization. All these cards could be $10 but they arent just cuz.

VARIABLE PRICING ON SINGLES DIRECT FROM WOTC IS DESPICABLE AND YOU SHOULD FEEL SHAME.

The world is big, frustrating, and angry right now. I've decided I'm fighting this year with creativity. I'm going to relish in my work and try to put some good things forward into the world while finding ways to protest and fight back. I got Poscas for the first time, though, so for now: memes

Today at SICB I listened to a fabulous talk about how Juncos behavioral plasticity in post-wildfire coniferous forests by Yiran "Ryann" Su and I've had this image stuck I'm my head all day inspired by their finding that birds in burned habitats exhibited higher levels of aggression
