Find yourself an enemy who hates you as much as Zack Wheeler hates the Mets.

Air Traffic Controllers are highly skilled, well trained, and dedicated to your safety. Regardless of race or gender, they all meet the same high standards for hiring, training, and certification.

Hurts should only run when it happens organically. Fuck these designed runs.

Surprised to see this at Wegmans. Been on my bucket list for a while but I don’t make it to RVA much. It’s awesome as expected. Falcon Smash by Triple Crossing!

No free pass to Musk here as he’s awful and I don’t want to gaslight these federal employees but antagonizing him on the platform he owns isn’t great idea. Any federal employee who isn’t protrump is putting their employment at risk continuing to engage on X.

Just finished Hard Rain Falling by Don Carpenter. I understand why this book is recommended but it struggled to hold my attention. Brutal, raw, and sad. I’m glad I read it but it would be difficult to recommend to someone else.

This is a game changer. Thank you!

Checked off a Fatherhood bucket list item this evening. Pulled a manhole cover and retrieved an RC car. My fireplace poker was stronger enough to pull the cover.

Finishing up Hard Rain Falling and The Hobbit. The first halves of both books were a struggle. Both have been more engaging as I pass their respective midpoints.

Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption. I was amazed how many of the classic dialogue in the movie was directly from the book. I followed up by starting from the beginning (Carrie and Salem’s Lot).

It’s dry and oak forward for my taste. It’s good but as with most whiskey, it’s not worth secondary price.

Nice pour and every bourbon lover should try it if they can find it. I enjoyed it more than Lot B when I tried them head to head back in 2018. Cheers!

Working my way from 500-1 on @rollingstone.com.web.brid.gy Top 500 Album list. I missed the boat on this Oasis album with how overplayed their hits were at the time. Great album!

The same people who’ve spent the last several years decrying β€œunqualified DEI hires” are now shoehorning through Cabinet nominations who can’t even pass a basic background test.

Chase Utley had five seasons of 7 rWAR. Every single player in MLB history with even four such seasons is in the HOF, with the following exceptions.

Bonds, A-Rod, and Shoeless Joe had scandals.

Pujols, Trout, and Betts haven't hit the ballot yet.

Utley is the lone snub.

You don’t bury an ethics report that would exonerate Trump’s pick.

You don’t skip FBI background checks unless his nominees have something to hide.

See what they’re doing? Please tell me you see what they’re doing.

This has been my mantra as a Trump biographer.

And now as a Musk biographer, too.

Let the sunlight in.

It was getting harder each week to find Philly Sports Twitter with all the bots and manipulation of the algorithm over on X. So excited for a fresh start and to see how many people have moved here.
