@TigersData Ball knowers know that as bad as carp has been in this recent stretch in what’s been a bit of a down year- he still strikes the most fear of anyone in our lineup in big moments. Big time playoff hitter

I loved The Odyssey, and thought it's basic message was fundamentally conservative - that when sacred norms are violated by those meant to guard them , civilization starts to unravel. That's what makes it timely (and maybe helps explain why it makes some people uncomofortable).

Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey may be the most pro-Western civilization film Hollywood has made in decades - not because it flatters the Greeks, but because it understands civilization as a moral achievement rather than an ethnic possession.

The identitarian far-left and far-right share a premise: that the Western canon is ethnic property. One side condemns it on that basis; the other guards it on the same basis. Nolan refuses the premise, populating Homer's world with various identities while treating the story with absolute seriousness. That’s not a repudiation of the canon but evidence of its triumph: Homer can be inhabited by, and speak to, anyone.

The film’s deepest commitment is to individual moral agency. Odysseus cannot hide behind Greece, military orders, or victory. His choices are his own, and so is his guilt. No collective cause dissolves individual moral responsibility; his final heroism lies not in conquest, but atonement.

That principle extends to hospitality: treat the stranger as you would wish to be treated. When the Greeks violate it, they become the barbarians they fear. Penelope's devastating realization - "You're the people from the sea" - underscores that the enemies of civilization are sometimes its self-appointed defenders, exempting themselves from the principles they claim to uphold.

This is Western civilization at its best - not an ethnicity or a triumphalist myth, but a tradition built around the dignity of the individual, moral responsibility, and atonement. And a civilization strong enough to preserve stories that judge its own heroes remains a civilization worth defending.

@Halbridious Maybe defensively, but pretty tough to ask a team to get 2+ shooters and defenders with size at the 3 and 4.

IMO a better answer is letting Cade guard 3’s and 4’s and having another guard who’s a great shooter

@MattWalshBlog As a republican, isn’t this just exactly what the 14th amendment has always been? People born here have always been citizens regardless of parents immigrant status. Feels not very constitutionalist of us to want to switch it now.

@KuKhahil These stats don’t actually work in your favor lol. No one is arguing ausar isn’t an all world defender- but specifically in the postseason the spacing issues were way worse. And the offense was +6 with Duren and no ausar vs both of them.

@croucherJD Melo is obviously a great player, but Brandon Miller has and is the Driver of winning for them

@MZavagno11 How do these people have jobs? The fix is so simple.
1. Lock the odds at all star break.
2. Let the odds be over a two year sample size
3. Go back to the more former odds where teams that suck have better odds of top pick

@the_det_times @RapSheet This 100% bait for the teams above the Lions in the draft. Trying to trick Brad into trading away his next 5 third rounders to move up 3 spots.

The Epstein files have become the biggest black eye for this administration.

There are very few issues that unite Americans across politics, religion, and income levels.

Protecting kids is one of them.

The last three administrations failed to address it. This was an opportunity to finally confront it head on.

The “attack, deny, never apologize” playbook doesn’t work when children are involved.

Yes, there’s a lot to celebrate:
• Murder down 20%
• Border more secure
• America projecting strength
• Markets performing well

But none of that matters to parents if kids aren’t protected.

It’s also true many on the left are more focused on taking down Trump than protecting children, otherwise this would’ve been a priority years ago.

Still, this has been badly mishandled.

When it comes to kids, transparency and accountability aren’t optional.

Major fumble.
No other way to say it.
