If you aren't seeing skeets from some of your fave people, they might have been labeled "Rude" by bsky mods. Idk what they are thinking, I don't need a mommy to tell me who to be buddies with. Anyway, go into Settings > moderation > bluesky moderation (advanced) and turn Rude off.

rough sketch of the Frankenstein creature

"I had selected his features as beautiful. Beautiful! His yellow skin scarcely covered the work of muscles and arteries beneath; his hair was of a lustrous black, and flowing; his teeth of a pearly whiteness... his shrivelled complexion and straight black lips.”

"A Black man is getting a standing ovation in the Deep South for breaking a record of an all-time baseball idol. What a marvelous moment for baseball. What a marvelous moment for Atlanta and the state of Georgia. What a marvelous moment for the country and the world.”

This was Vin Scully's call of Henry Aaron's 715th home run. Tonight Major League Baseball cut off the first sentence, starting it with the "What a marvelous moment" part because they don't want to anger the white supremacists who run our country and of whom Rob Manfred is an ardent supporter.

Notable that MLB alternated calls in that tribute, and edited around Vin Scully saying “A Black man is getting a standing ovation in the Deep South for breaking a record of an all-time baseball idol.”

State Department set to launch ‘Office of Remigration’ The concept of remigration has explicitly neo-Nazi roots and has been popularized in Europe.

SCOOP: The State Department's new reorganization plan includes the opening of an "Office for Remigration," a term popularized by far right extremists and neo-Nazis in Europe. The office will coordinate directly with DHS "to advance the President’s immigration agenda."

My report:

this guy is out here proudly being a eugenicist freak while people at mainstream and "respectable publications" make excuses for him or even muse about whether he has a "few good points"

Scott Franzke on Bryce Harper during Friday night's game:

"Seems to be this narrative about town that Bryce Harper isn't having any fun, isn't enjoying playing baseball. And, uh, I think the folks down at ground level would tell you differently."

If any Philadelphia team had remained named the Quakers, I wonder what that branding history would look like

NICK CASTELLANOS: Eh it's wet and gross, I don't feel like swinging

Michael Kay explains that the Yankees made new bats "where they moved a lot of the wood into the label so the harder part of the bat is going to strike the ball."

Seems relevant today...

"I Hope Your Team Sucks and Loses": Inside the Head of John Kruk John Kruk has gone from beloved ball player to Phillies outcast and back again. How Krukker became Philadelphia’s rambling id.

Hell yeah we profiled John Kruk.
