You genuinely can’t get much closer to winning the World Series without doing it. That Blue Jays run was incredible, and nothing that came before today was invalidated by that result — but a win sure could have elevated it.

Players with 30+ hits in a single MLB playoff run: Ernie Clement That's it.

The job isn't done yet, but the Blue Jays have been getting it done in the World Series. And, of course, this week @nickashbourne.bsky.social and I are talking about the Only Thing That Matters. Have a listen! 👇

In MLB history, 334 hitters have come to the plate 60+ times in a playoff run. Of that group, Vladimir Guerrero Jr.'s 2025 ranks second by wRC+ (248) behind only Barry Bonds in 2002.

OpenAI says it has proof that Deepseek used its work without permission to create something meant to undermine and destroy its product. On behalf of all the authors whose novels and stories were taken as training data, oh no that must be so hard for you.

whether we can access healthcare or not, we're trans. what these EOs are doing, is hurting and destroying the lives of trans kids, before they take aim at adults. years of treating a marginalised community like a shameful political football, like we're an embarassment to liberal political and legal

Occasional reminder that there’s no, “it’s too late, its over” for anthropogenic climate change. Every molecule of CO2 that doesn’t go into the atmosphere makes a difference. Preventing 0.1 degree of warming makes a difference. Every bit of climate resilience we build together makes a difference.

It's time for my favourite pastime! Looking at the Ontario 511 highway cameras and saying "Oof, that's alot of snow" Hopefully I get a few months of it this year!

I have no interest in Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson, but sometimes you find yourself in a bar in Saulte Ste Marie, and it's on 11 screens....
