Not a huge deal because he was never gonna win this year anyway, but putting up 8 WAR and not even being a finalist for MVP is brutal

Long live Guilloteen Vogue

Once again, marginal income tax and capital gains tax rates are too low and pose an existential threat to American democracy

thinking about the “we have enough hot takes” lady for some reason lately

NEW: Footage of a US citizen in Chicago being rammed then dragged from her car on her way to work.

Abducted, with no warrant, her family couldn’t find her for hours.

She was later released with NO CHARGE.

A DHS statement said she “violently resisted arrest, injuring two officers”.

You decide…

Chicago woman dragged out of her car after colliding with ICE demands accountability The arrest of Dayanne Figueroa highlights growing concerns about the use of force against U.S. citizens and due process. She was released after a few hours without charges.

NEWS: Federal agents crashed with woman’s car, pointed guns at her, dragged her out by legs, tossed her in a minivan, held her and (eventually) let her go without charges. This as Chicagoans say the immigration blitz is out of control. (DHS blames her.)

Lmao, look at us introducing our teams with the same anecdote
bsky.app/profile/lild...

So for Nextwave I have:
1.) Black Mamba slotting in as the team's CIA handler. (She isn't too dumb to know the truth, she just doesn't care.)
2.) Kaine Parker
3.) Chamber slotting into the Boom Boom role
4.) Iridia from 1975 Inhumans book.
5.) Number Seven from Ann Nocenti's run on Daredevil. (2/2)

Okay! Day 3 of the #NuffSaidNovemberChallange. I've never read Nextwave. I had to ask my friend who they were. The impression I got was Z-listers too dumb to know they are working for the CIA. I am excited because I am blowing the dust off 2 characters no one else has thought about in decades. (1/2)

I was also thinking Gwenpool, but went a different direction

I am so excited for tomorrow's because there are 3 minor characters from the truly dreadful 1975 Inhumans series that I am right now committing to resurrecting this month for this challenge and putting on teams and tomorrow we will get our first one

Hell yeah Bobby and Maikel!

Wanda, like Beast, is at her best on the Avengers. And Loki because I thought it would fun, lol. Originally I had Jane Foster as the team's resident Asgardian, and I might regret not using her here, but Loki it is.

Steve like Cyclops is here because he's foundational. Beast because Avengers Beast was the best version of Hank. Ironheart because I don't like Tony Stark. I originally had Rescue beause I thought Ironheart was a little young, but then I added Cassie Lang so that wasn't an issue anymore...

But also Kwannon rocks. There was strategy, there yes, but she's not a slouch anyway.

Went Thunderbird because him and Scott will have plenty of conflict. Marrow brings the reformed villain element as well as the inherent critique the Morlocks bring. Maggot is just a personal favorite of mine. Kwannon because I need a psychic, but didn't want to use Jean or Monet yet...

For day 2, Avengers. Uhh...
1.) Steve Rogers
2.) Beast
3.) Ironheart
4.) Cassie Lang
5.) Wanda
6.) Loki

I am a day behind on this, and I am not industrious enough to grab pictures. For the X-men I am going:
1.) Cyclops
2.) Maggot
3.) Kwannon
4.) Thunderbird
5.) Marrow

It never felt like the Dodgers had the better chance to win this World Series until the very moment they won it.

As a Royals fan, I support never thinking about Madison Bumgarner.

Recency bias notwithstanding, I feel like Vladito and Yamamoto are two of the most astonishing sustained postseason performances I've ever seen. I'm sure Madison Bumgarner has a case but I don't want care to think about him at this moment. I'd rather think about the cool guys.

baseball is such a lovely sport

see you all in March I guess

okay so Dave Roberts is right about the movie

double-plays to end games 6 and 7

i cannot believe it. I... what the fuckkkkkk

How did the Dodgers win one of the best series ever and look like shit doing it???

Dave! Dave! No! DAVE! NOOO! NO!

if the dodgers pull this shit off...

a game for sick freaks

Yoshi….what an absolute dawg

from 3-0 to that strike-out was a real roller coaster.
