Climate disasters are multiplying. So why are newsrooms covering the crisis less? @coveringclimatenow.org's @kylepope01.bsky.social on the media’s climate retreat.

Happy 6th anniversary to the time Sarah Palin sang Baby Got Back on the Masked Singer and then the show changed to Trump's address to the nation about COVID.

Tools are definitely good enough. I like him better there than on the dirt. Just, still waiting to see any actual defensive aptitude from him. He’s an athlete without a plus skill so far.

I'm not sure we're ever going to find the defensive position where Luke Keaschall is good.

Bailey Ober. Right-on-Right Changeups, and How This is All Going to Work Baiey Ober didn't show a revitalized fastball Thursday. He did find success, though, and he did it on the strength of the pitch (and the matchup) that will be most important for him this season.

Bailey Ober is still throwing 88. If his changeup is on, though, he can be a mid-rotation starter, anyway. The key questions are: How often can you be on like that? And can he adjust to throwing the right-on-right change more often? twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/...

As a kid who grew up watching Harry (and then Chip) Caray and the Cubs on WGN, it's profoundly hypocritical of me to hate on in-booth promotions, when some guest comes in to hype a local business or a show or whatever.

But I hate myself anyway, so fuck it: The in-booth promotion is a blight. Blech.

I can do another dozen of these (guy does great sermons on the mound!), but I really can’t top Susan just leading with him being “a rising superstar”. Perfect.

But seriously are the Giants gonna go with a 12-man pitching staff? Because that 13th disciple traditionally complicates things..

Christian Wonders.

They call him Ol’ Waterwalker. Ol’ Winemaker. The Loavesman.
Resurrects a lot of careers.
His conceptions on pitching? Immaculate.
Flips the card tables in the clubhouse.
Where has he been for the last 18 years? No one knows. He just showed up, shortly after John the Brebbia.

This would be an indefensible waste of taxpayer dollars, but a well-run government could do it through coordinated effort.

The Trump administration would kill a dozen people or so and get no more than 4,000 feet off the ground.

We need reparations for ICE victims.

Anything short of that is setting the stage for a massive wealth grab from people of color that will re-entrench racial disparities for generations.

Who on Earth is doing that? This was the literal first guy to raise not certifying the 2020 results as a real possibility; he’s as down-the-line MAGA monster as they come.

Showing Up for Racial Justice how do you square your claims that he is anti-racist and your endorsement with Graham Platner saying that Black people don't tip among other things?

Javier Assad, against all odds, gets better when runners are on base and gets better when the lineup turns over. So no need to rush him out of the game here.
