First time I’ve written on a movie. Shoutout to @ajmcwhinney for helping me figure it out.

In Eternal Expectations, Taylor B. (@marxsext) reviews Jia Zangke's landmark film Platform as a chronicle of the PRC's Reform and Opening Up period: https://t.co/GEM29LF47p

Latest newsletter: Pride Night exists because of men like Glenn Burke. And I imagine the San Francisco Giants pitchers who turned it into a protest of the city’s fundamental values have no idea what he endured.

@Danielle138252 @KNBR @knbrmurph @MarkusBoucher I think the point Kruk was making is that SF has a unique connection to the gay community and the Giants have historically aligned with that. Kershaw and the Dodgers are beside the point. If there was one org where you’d expect a Pride Night to go well, it would be the Giants.

[taylor @marxsext]

@Blakes_Take2 The point of pride night is for everyone to take one night to be pro something together: to acknowledge the existence of LGBTQ+ people. To make that night about anything else, much less the personal religious beliefs of a straight guy, is to be against the overall message.

@JackLoder_ My only hope is he sees fans pissed this year and his dream to be the beloved face of the franchise wins out

@evangel2891 @hrJonGant @NBCSAuthentic Christians and LBGTQ+ communities do not have equal power in this country, so this scenario doesn’t make sense. Nobody denies the right of Christians to marry, use toilets, or exist. Nevertheless, a rainbow on faith night shouldn’t be an issue according to Roupp and Genesis.

@GamergateNazi @NBCSAuthentic Don’t worry, Roupp will forgive me. Unfortunately for you, you’ll continue to live your miserable life

@GamergateNazi @NBCSAuthentic Yes a grown man writing special book citations on his work hat because he’s triggered by colors. Clearly Extremely Okay with it

[taylor @marxsext]

@GamergateNazi @NBCSAuthentic Sucks that god planned that for him

@Jonathan_Clegg8 @johnsaponaro Just be a professional. The hat is a known thing. It’s a part of the job here. Respect the city and the organization, play hard, and get paid. If you don’t want to be a part of the org, play somewhere you feel more comfortable. Pretty simple.

[taylor @marxsext]

@Rocky_Aspire @johnsaponaro I don’t think you watched the game. Three guys who played in the game last night made that statement as they failed at their jobs—again—in front of a large paying crowd on a community night for a bad team.

@susanslusser Thanks for asking Susan!

[taylor @marxsext]

@GarlicFryRy @shamgod77 @JackLoder_ It just doesn't make sense tho, Lee got a hit and a run off the leftie opener last night. I'm not really sure there is any real logic governing the line up. Feel like the clubhouse is just in chaos mode

[taylor @marxsext]

@Brandywinebooks @KimberlyLWeir @the_book_land To answer your question, yes, read As I Lay Dying first. Multiple perspectives, a family not doing well. It is much more accessible than The Sound and the Fury, which is another family not doing well told through another multi-perspecive, but more radical narrative structure

[taylor @marxsext]

@ll_the_time @Jon_Michael_Lee @BaseballValues I hear you. I think the trade is a gamble on Susac/Rod to win now bc money committed to roster. You’re not convinced and that’s reasonable. Only way to see is to let them play. Thanks for the friendly debate!

[taylor @marxsext]

@ll_the_time @Jon_Michael_Lee @BaseballValues Yes. My argument is around roster construction. They are getting better hitters more at bats for more years at less money, another lefty prospect, and a draft pick up strengthen the farm. They are losing a good player that is not helping them win right now and a fit elsewhere

[taylor @marxsext]

@GiantHotTakes Urgency is definitely the word. Honestly this is the kinda move that should wake up the vets. They have to know there they’re the reason. And for the young guys, sets the standard. Bailey is a better fit elsewhere so good luck to him

[taylor @marxsext]

@mike_petriello Giant have two rookies to win a job and a serviceable backdrop at catcher what are you talking about
