How do we factor in the decline in participation over the dangers of football? A quick search estimates there are only a million HS kids playing now. That’s only down ~100k from 20 years ago.

Participation doesn’t mean everything, so I’m genuinely asking a question what makes it more competitive?

Fair, but those are American sports. I think basketball could have a strong argument as the 3rd largest sport. Soccer by far has the most players in the world, on every continent too. Football by physicality and organization? Sure. How about the individual sports? Mental and no support network.

What makes it the most competitive sport in the world?

The Red Wings are making me feel reaaaaal anxious right now. #LGRW

STFU

FINNERTY: Are you saying that they should not be on Medicaid?

REP. GREG MURPHY: I don't personally think they're disabled.

Oh hell yea!

How could we really treat our brothers with a country as great of currency as this and a hockey god who can do that with such disrespect?

What in the world

I watched the Schumer on Chris Hayes clips from last night. Chuck has been worked over by Mitch McConnell for decades and is now the perfect model for the failure of the Democratic Party of the last 8 years to wake up to what is happening. Sign me up for the primary revolution on these bums.

We are so lucky to be able watch him. Just breathtaking speed and skill.

A seemingly random 100x100 grid with each square filled in one of 10 colors. Each color represents digital according to a key on the side of the side of the diagram. Together they show the first 10,000 digits of pi.

Happy π day!

Here’s a color-coded representation of the first 10,000 digits. Read it left-to-right and top-to-bottom. 🧪 🎢 🧮

Here is NASA’s Contract with Clearview AI The oversight and investigative body of NASA spent $16,000 on the technology, 404 Media previously reported.

good get from @josephcox.bsky.social. why would NASA need facial recognition? www.404media.co/here-is-nasa...

After reading this I have confirmed that I’m living in the upside down. References to polling on Musk. Apparent hand gestures that might look like Nazis. It’s just horse shit all around. Who does the NYT think they are appealing to with this misrepresentation of what we see with our own eyes? Gross.

Missouri AG sues Starbucks, says workforce is ‘more female and less white’ The suit comes as corporations are rolling back their diversity programs as the Trump administration moves to shut down all federal DEI programs.

As a former straight white barista I have a million and one issues with Starbucks but we stand together with our people. All my managers and bosses were women or lgbtqia+ and they taught me more about the world than all the privileged white guys who just wanted their “regular coffee”

My god is that prophetic

Oscars: Full List of Nominees 'Emilia Pérez' lead the nominations with 13, followed by 'The Brutalist' and 'Wicked' with 10 apiece.

Trying to enter the yearly pursuit of seeing all the best picture nominees without prejudice, but man this looks like it might be a slog finishing this list. Here’s to hope!

Have you shown her the Bootleg Cut yet? God I love Almost Famous.

How about those Lions????

There are head colds and then there are respiratory infections through Christmas. Sieze the teas and Irish.

Headed downtown Detroit for my last minute Christmas shopping and a couple pints. This is a good thing. Plenty wrong with some of the inequality in how how Detroit is being “remade,” but this is good.

Two schools of thought here. First, it is a mirror of discussion writ large on the internet and hockey might have been too niche and masked the unpleasantness. The second is congrats you’ve made it to the big time!

Shout out for love

Todays a great day to finish my serious work so that I can take the rest of the month to work on fine tuning my ability to stir up some arguments at Christmas time

Who could have ever guessed?!?

The new journey begins for me today. I came home from my third major operation in 2 years yesterday.

Two weeks of suck it the fuck up and then the path to the active life I want to live.

But first maybe a nap.

I realized it is less than two weeks until Thanksgiving and I cannot be happier

Seems sustainable
