1. Gavin and I are not close.

2. I actually believe Gavin is a fraud.

3. Even though online poker should be legal everywhere, under current law operators like Global are essentially sidestepping/skirting the intent of the law.

Keep your friends close and your enemies closer.

Plus they make a mean French 75.

LOOKING FOR GROUND SUPPORT AT X

Can't you Bluesky folks send over, say, 20 people at a time, and rotate them out for a fresh 20 people every week?

This would prevent mental burnout and give us well-rested, alert keyboard warriors to fight the never-ending battles.

That's a great analogy -- I just pray that you are wrong.

(At the moment, yes, I am losing my mind. Just refuse to cede the dialog and the territory to all those speaking untruths and spouting toxic hate.)

Why do you all keep sitting over here on your soft asses?

You cannot ignore the evil, you have to speak to the evil.

I'm over at X getting my butt handed to me 24-7.
Are you gonna be Victor Laszlo or are you gonna own Rick's Cafe?

SOS.

We're losing.

We've gotta step outside this bubble.

We need to confront the close-minded at every front.

We must fight rhetorical fire with rhetorical fire.

We have to combat every fiction with actual fact.

And if facts don't trump fiction, we won't have a democratic republic any more.

Greats: Stephen Colbert, John Oliver.

Good: Seth Meyers.

Not-so-good: Jimmy Kimmel, Jimmy Fallon.

That's a reasonable idea.

Can you implement it a little faster?

I have largely abandoned BlueSky because it is an echo chamber.

I have reluctantly continued to traffic on X in an attempt to call out the untruths that taint the platform.

Frankly, it feels like a losing battle, but I cannot sleep at night (or during the day) just letting the bad people run wild.

You are a wise, wise soul.

Appreciate the kind words.

As for signing the ace of spades, due to my uncertain professional future, I now must monetize that chore:

It is now $1.25 per card, or $2.99 for two of them.

Best I can tell, no.

We will commentate, though, on the edited Main Event shows airing on CBS Sports Net in the fall.

Reduced streaming schedule this year, unfortunately.

So they knocked out almost any mixed-game streaming, unfortunately. Ugh.
