@LVann_Sports That was a PR campaign?

@DobzMiles @kicknyrgios I don't think it's a matter of believing in Braun more or less than Collins. It's a matter that, finding 15 guys to go out and win 20 basketball games is cheaper and more linear than finding 85 guys to go out and win eight football games.

@Dstricklin8 But also: Given a choice between the Holiday Bowl on several weeks' notice or (assuming 9 through 24 would have been the first round) LSU on 10 days' notice, I'll keep San Diego even with all that rain we faced.

@RAVerBruggen @charleswayne13 Come on. You're expecting one of Musk's products to have proper PR training?

I would offer that Alex Pretti putting his body—with his hands up—between a woman and the BP agent who had just violently shoved her into the snow, offer stark competing visions of manhood. Pretti, a nurse caring for veterans, who took a face full of pepper spray to shield that woman, is a much better masculine ideal that the masked coward shoving the woman and executing a man on his knees. MAGA may venerate the latter, but most people in a healthy society want the former.

@RAVerBruggen Thanks for the warning.

Biden had spinal arthritis—a common condition—that slightly affected his gait. The media ran wild, insinuating Parkinson’s, demanding tests, neurologist visits, and full transparency.

Now Trump has a confirmed diagnosis of a serious vascular disease—a literal risk to heart and brain health—and the press suddenly forgets how to ask questions?

Where’s the same energy? Arthritis doesn’t kill you. Blood and vein disease does.

From my brother who grew up under apartheid and spent time in a South African prison as a dissident:

“Any time law enforcement conceals their identity, does not wear unit patches, or identity themselves you are in serious trouble as a country.”

Says volumes about America now.

[Jonathan Love @JonathanLove1]

@AugustTulips @RAVerBruggen Seconded, but with the acknowledgement that paying for two homes instead of one is economically devastating, even if the atmosphere in those two homes is better than in the previous shared home. Economics aren't everything, but they are a powerful factor.

[Jay Rosen @jayrosen_nyu]

Compare and contrast.

The Guardian: "Trump repeats lies and attacks Kamala Harris’s racial identity at panel of Black journalists"

Washington Post: "Harris faces a pivotal moment as Trump questions her identity."

WNBC: "Trump grabs attention with controversial race remarks."

[David Roth For Idaho @rothforIdaho]

Bill Barr says that enforcing a code of ethics on the Supreme Court would purge conservative justices. Let that argument sink in for a minute…

A moment of silence for J.D. Vance's half white half Indian kids who are about to watch their dad go on television and pretend that he doesn't understand how it's possible for someone to be two races at once

[Rev. Benjamin Cremer @Brcremer]

Dear American Christian,

[Rev. Justin Berkobien @JustinBerkobien]

This little misunderstanding is what happens when Christians are always outraged but seldom curious

[Jonathan Love @JonathanLove1]

This.

Again, these companies have it backwards. We want AI to do the drudgery so we can spend time on fun, creative stuff. A parent and a child doing something like this is the last place AI should show up.

[Will Leitch @williamfleitch]

The Google commercial where the dad has his daughter use AI to construct a note to her favorite athlete rather than encourage her to write what she actually wants to tell her hero takes a little chunk out of my soul every time I see it.

@TMichaelCronin Counterpoint: think about the numbers in this article - https://t.co/1lFfNTzGLe

When you think about the small number of machines that were impacted, and how small the Windows Server ecosystem is in the first place, it's hard to say there's anything to break up here.

[Alex Cole @acnewsitics]

Wow, Republicans are running a 78-year-old convicted felon for president. Yikes!

[Jonathan Love @JonathanLove1]

@TMichaelCronin It's simpler than this. It's that our foods are full of sugar & salt, and we spend too much time working & commuting and not enough time resting & walking.

I had to have a glass of orange juice in Buenos Aires to understand how little sugar the rest of the world consumes.

[Jonathan Love @JonathanLove1]

@TMichaelCronin OTOH: for a given city hall, the local equivalent of Sam Houston is more relevant than Washington, especially as you move west.
