Checks who they get to play first... oh hell, the winner of Brewers/Mets. As someone who saw a County Stadium game of the 1982 World Series as a middle-schooler, I must confess to really wanting to see the Brew Crew in another. (Your in-state students may feel the same way.)

It used to be that the Republican Party was a party that merely tolerated rapists and pedophiles, now it's party run by and for rapists and pedophiles bsky.app/profile/watt...

(Seriously, I hear someone use "females" like that, and I ALWAYS imagine a Ferengi.)

Or a Ferengi... wait... dammit, Ferengi are just a subset, aren't they. Never mind. :) media1.tenor.com/m/s5sBU7GamB...

I gotta ask: which show? I saw VH while I lived there, and a couple Rush shows visiting in-laws and my brother in the 2000s.

I lived there while the 2nd-half of that was going on, but I was distracted as I was way too close to the District to have it affect me, plus, y'know, first job tunnel vision. I believe some of the infra that was there went instead to... ah yes, Jiffy Lube Live: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jiffy_L...

This is the fundamental paradox of AI: if it's actually helping you, there is no way to know when it is no longer helping you. Put another way: if you can supervise it effectively enough to catch its mistakes, you probably didn't need it in the first place.

Itā€™s boring to say it over and over, but what Trump and SCOTUS want is a nation-wide Redemption, from the periodic lawless massacres to the many threats against voting access to the literal repeal of enforcement provisions of the VRA. Many people saw Obamaā€™s presidency as a form of Reconstruction.

the take away from primanti bros getting bomb threats is that the GOP represents a political movement that is not actually interest in marshaling popular support and winning power via elections. it's a movement that uses violence to discipline its own members and enemies
