I would truly love to see this programming. I have no idea why networks like YES, Marquee and SNY are available to me on DirecTV even though I am out of their market but BravesVision isn't. DTV's customer service has proven less than worthless in providing answers.

[BravesVision @BravesVisionTV]

We're BACK!

Beginning on Monday, November 2 at 6pm ET, fans can tune in throughout the offseason for a rotating lineup of Braves stories, memorable games, and programming available only on BravesVision!

You were loud wrong in your polling and predictions. Will you be publishing an explanation and/or an apology for these failings or just pretend it never happened and say you had the "direction" right you just underestimated how far it would go?

[Magdi Jacobs @magi_jay]

This is great. I'd argue that we should stop the decline of video game stores like we should have stopped the decline of malls. Anything that's physical & communal in this world should be fought for. Especially given issues of loneliness. The decline of malls was bad for society.

One of JEREMIAH JOHNSON's last shots left Robert Redford stranded high in Utah snow. Only Redford, Sydney Pollack, and a helicopter pilot remained from the 70-person crew. The helicopter flew away for more film without telling him; he waited alone amid the silence.

JEREMIAH JOHNSON (1972) Robert Redford seeks solitude in the Rockies and finds a harsher world than he imagined. A haunting revisionist Western.

Mississippi is roughly the same % Black as today’s Bed-Stuy, which is represented by an entirely Black slate of local officials, as well a Black member of Congress.

But Mississippi does not have early in-person voting, requires photo ID to vote, and has a felony disenfranchisement law dating to 1890 that today permanently bars nearly 70,000 state residents from voting.

@DemocracyDocket reports that in the last midterm election, that state "ranked dead last in the nation for voter turnout" and that this year voters there had to overcome "a system that perhaps makes it more difficult to vote than anywhere in the country."

Scott Colom's win is a remarkable achievement.

May the families of James Chaney, Andrew Goodman, and Michael Schwerner find solace tonight that 58 years later, the work of these three men has never been forgotten.

Always remember: history is not as far back as you think it is.

The blue slip — used by racist Southern segregationist Senators in the 50s, 60s & 70s to block supporters of civil rights from ascending to the federal bench in the South — was used by Cindy Hyde-Smith to block Scott Colom from a judgeship. He's now the Senator-elect.

On January 30th 1986, I had the extreme pleasure to see SRV play in Jackson Mississippi at what was then the Municipal Auditorium.

The Fabulous Thunderbirds opened, and Jimmie came out and joined Stevie for the encore.

Hands down the best show I’ve ever seen.

…and there’s been some…

The Lancaster/Douglas Gunfight at the O.K. Corral is terrible history but it's GLORIOUS movie-making.

[Art Vandelay @LJS527]

I mean look, anyone who has dealt with elderly family knows that the claims of Biden having dementia were stupid. Dementia is a very specific disease that ravages a person's mind. I've witnessed it and it's horrific.
Biden was slowing down, clearly. But he wasn't exhibiting signs of dementia. People just used it, in my view, callously, as a catch-all phrase to mean that he's deteriorating.

I usually take up for Bronson, but I can't see that working. Marvin or Holden would've been interesting but it's hard to argue against what we ended up with.

[Seventies Films @70sFilm]

Warner Bros. wanted Robert Aldrich to direct and Charles Bronson to star. Robert Aldrich wanted Lee Marvin. Paul Schrader wanted William Holden.

The film ultimately paired Robert Mitchum with director Sydney Pollack.

They tried to dismantle Black political power and turn back the clock. History had other plans and instead, we witnessed its greatest expansion since Reconstruction!

6 Black Democratic US Senators (NJ, DE, GA, MD, IL, MS) and 5 Black Democratic Governors (MD, GA, NV, WI, VI)

The same one that disgraced itself 90 years later by fishing this turd out of the bowl and giving him safe haven for decades.

[Pragmatic Libertarian Pill Dude @mecalnan]

@BeschlossDC Gee..

A historian neglects to tell people what party he was from…

🤡

[Tim @trouble_man90]

Scott Colom is the way forward
Annie Andrews is the way forward
Roy Cooper is the way forward
James Talarico is the way forward
Jon Ossoff is the way forward
Mary Peltola is the way forward
Adam Hamilton is the way forward

Democrats that don’t have to attack the party or apologize for being a liberal to succeed. That’s the way forward for the party

[Tdub @Tdub2824]

When are yall going to realize Alex isn’t speaking to the fanbase rather to other GMs?

“We’d be comfortable with Suarez closing”
>doesn’t make it seem like they’re desperate for a high leverage arm
“Our offense was streaky but it was fine”

Everything is based on leverage and he’s not trading Ronald regardless

This is a Shakespeare quote.

[Lyndon Baines Johnson @lyndonbajohnson]

A Liberal Democrat now sits in Strom Thurmond's seat, a Black officer of the courts sits in James O. Eastland's seat, and Democrats have taken back LBJ's seat. The moral arc of the universe is long but bends toward justice. -OS
