Mandy Patinkin is an incredibly brave Jewish man. You can hear the heartbreak in his voice every time he speaks about what’s happening to Palestinians. He cares so deeply, and he refuses to stay quiet about it. Protect this man at all costs. ❤️
Ken Casey (Dropkick Murphys): “The fact that Ed Sheeran took the knee, no matter what the cause is, and not stood with his fellow tour partner just doesn’t sit right with me. Ed Sheeran is the act. The promoter’s not what the people come to see. Macklemore said that in the most dignified way. He took the time to say: to all my Jewish brothers and sisters this isn’t disrespect to you. He’s speaking against the actions of a government. What has happened to free speech that a person can’t say this?”
It’s been 10 years, and there hasn’t been a single thing Colin Kaepernick has said that’s been untrue.
By admitting publicly that they colluded to keep Macklemore off stage, Robert Kraft effectively admitted that they..colluded to keep Colin Kaepernick off the field.
If by this point you don’t see the global harm inherent to capitalism and a billionaire ruling class, you are actively trying not to see it.

"If it were up to me I would award Donald Trump the Order of Canada. Never in our history has someone brought this many Canadians together.
Then again he is disqualified for the award as he has a criminal record."
-- Jean Chrétien former Canada PM
Donald Trump welcomed Saudi Prince Mohammed bin Salman and Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa to The White House as honored guests. One is a walking human rights violation who runs the country most suspected of providing aid to the 9/11 hijackers, and the other is a former leader of Al-Qaeda. And Trump smiled and posed for a picture between them.
But please, tell me more about how Zohran Mamdani attending the memorial at Ground Zero is disrespectful to the victims.

The French made a short film about what could happen after all immigrants would follow the ‘_white, angry old man’s_’ advice to go back where they came from.*
People who suffer from seizures are only allowed to drive if:
- their condition is well-controlled by medication
- they have not had a seizure in 6 months.
This person claims to have "uncontrollable seizures". She would not be allowed to drive.
Seeing a different 100-mph arm every AB and playing against a global talent pool is definitely more difficult on a per-AB basis than seeing the same guys over and over and over for an entire season.
But you know what else is hard? The train ride from New York to St. Louis, poorly-manicured fields, playing center when the fence is 461 feet from home plate and there are obstacles in play, and the lack of modern medicine, training, equipment, nutrition, rehabilitation, load management, and so on.
It's a different game with different challenges. Hitting a baseball has never been harder, but existing in real life from one day to the next has never been easier.
My hot take is this: I think the players of a century ago would have a much easier time adapting to the baseball-specific challenges of the modern game than today's players would have adapting to the general lifestyle challenges of the mid-20th century.
16 years ago Google pulled its search engine out of China because they wouldn’t submit to an authoritarian government.
Today, they’re renaming lakes to appease one.
