Since Chubb insurance is in the news a good time to remind that they still are operating in Russia. There are way to many Western companies that choose to remain/support Russia’s war crimes. We really need to start another campaign against these companies

@realmaddox One thing you're not factoring in is how is life for say, people in western Europe? For them, it's far better. Maybe it wasn't 30-40 years ago, but they have kept advancing along with many other nations, while the USA stays behind and goes backwards.
Shohei Ohtani has now hit 30+ homers in 3 straight seasons and struck out a total of 502 batters while doing it. 😮
Babe Ruth never once struck out more than 3 batters in a season that he hit 30+ homers. No, seriously.
Stop saying "since Babe Ruth". Shohei is one of a kind.
@Tkmtcssls @BlueSlant @JoaquinCastrotx@mehdirhasan They literally colonized, murdered, brutalized, enslaved, and created a system that would insure they stayed in power in as many places as possible so.... yeah.
It’s time to end legacy admissions. Each year thousands of students are admitted to colleges around the nation only because their parents went there.
Legacy admissions are back-door discriminatory policies that overwhelmingly advantage wealthy, white students over everyone else.
@ChrisRose Against the AAAA Athletics, 2 sticky incidents this year including one suspension, plus being a domestic abuser... Nah. It was cool when Cone did it after his on the field struggles, awesome when Randy did it, crazy when Wells did it etc etc... Not feeling this one.
Sorry, by “starting the process of trying to expand” the Supreme Court, “we” are going to “politicize” a Republican-controlled institution that ended the right to abortion access, banned affirmative action, and gutted the Voting Rights Act? It’s gonna be OUR fault?
@willNYYanks@TalkinBaseball_ He's been my keeper in fantasy for years, started off slow this season, thought eh, maybe both him and judge won't be keepers next year... Boom, there he is, wanting to be my keeper again. And more BB than Ks... That's sexy.
