The Academy of American Poets has published this poem, and that is a very, very good thing.

Defector was equal parts kind and crazy enough to let me write about this weird sport again. I talked to over half a dozen people in and around the game about organizational limits, how it impacts players, and what baseball as a whole loses in shrinking. defector.com/the-minor-leag…

just a reminder from an obsessive federal court watcher: if there’s even a sliver of a possibility that a US attorney might squint at that post & see 18 usc 875 or 115, just log off. take a walk. i’m sure it was a great joke & we would’ve loved it, but the judge will not retweet.

NYPD officer shot a teenager at "point-blank" range and lied for years about it, falsely claiming the young man was holding a gun to the officer's partner's head. Officer remains on NYPD payroll and is negotiating to possibly retire with his pension. nypost.com/2021/03/08/cop…

"Nothing bums me out more than writing about the Angels. It’s an instant shot of ennui. If I wanted to watch a promising young man waste his prime as the light slowly leaves his eyes I’d scroll through my Facebook photos backwards." PHYT: Angels edition baseballprospectus.com/news/article/6…

Let's stop using the term "innovation" just because "guy trying to sell you something he doesn't own" isn't as catchy

This dissent by CA appellate Justice Stratton tearing apart the "legality" of stopping & searching Mr. Flores bc he wasn't "acting like a normal person" by engaging the cops in polite conversation is the best dissent I have ever read. It ends: "Tell that to Eric Garner."

what's happening in texas makes me despair for the future. not just how weather events are getting more unpredictable/intense but how it is immediately weaponized into a culture war narrative by the most shameless leaders. if this is the template going fwd we stand no chance

It needs to be LOUDLY emphasized that this is a lie. Wind and solar power actually overperformed expected winter capacity in Texas. The state was crippled by frozen coal and gas plants, knocking out over 30 gigawatts of power. Sources below.

We know PolyMet + Twin Metals threaten MN’s water. But did you know they would also be two of the largest producers of CO2 in MN? On Wed, Feb 10, Dr. Steven Emerman will share new findings on how these mines will intensify climate change. Register: us02web.zoom.us/webinar/regist…

Politicians should punish, not pardon, war criminals, and the media must end its dalliance with missile strikes and Navy SEALs. In other words, we must disarm, culturally, politically, tactically, @Jasper_Craven writes. newrepublic.com/article/161121…
