Jackie Robinson grew up in a diverse Pasadena neighborhood, & when one of those neighbors, his baseball teammate Shig Takayama, was incarcerated at Manzanar with his family, the Robinsons helped take care of their home. For my new column, a story of the worst & best of America through baseball. 🗃️

happy earth day, motherfuckers!

nothing hit like portuguese sausage, eggs & rice for the 10 am first of four wahine classic games

Exactly one year ago today:

free day off again tomorrow! we’ve gotten rained out of work so many times already this year

Things that help calm the nervous system, quickly: - Box breathing (in for 4, hold for 4, out for 4, hold for 4, repeat) - Immerse your face in cold water (activates mammalian dive reflex) - Humming (stimulates vagus nerve) - Exercise (anything helps, outside even better) - Impeachment and removal

BEHOLD, FOR THE PAC-12 IS RISEN, MOTHERFUCKERS

dropped by the prince to get a few photos of their house of sakura decorations

Everyone pony the fuck fpr the librarian who just got sacked for refusing to remove LGBTQ books from the kids' section of the library.

My official statement on Trans Visibility Day:

@foojish.bsky.social found your next meal!

search your camera roll for “hell” (technically it found helles bock in the upper right corner)

her bball teams never won a championship but anriel howard is your new women’s tag champ!

Dozens of U.S. strikes on Iran. Dunno what to say now other than my thoughts are with the Iranian civilians under fire. What a nightmare.

No Kings includes Draft Kings

wrecking crew is a good time, lots of iconic hawaiʻi scenery even though a good chunk was shot in aotearoa. could use more frankie adams though (everything could use more frankie adams)

REP. OMAR after being attacked with liquid: “We will continue! These fucking assholes are not gonna get away with this! Here is the reality people like this ugly man don’t understand — we are Minnesota Strong. We’ll stay resilient in the face of whatever they might throw at us.”

This was just me making this comparison yesterday, but today the Korean news is calling Minnesota "America's Gwangju" and have human rights lawyers explaining how America is now living through the dictatorship Korea once had.

We had 50K people downtown yesterday, no ICE and zero incidents. ICE is the fucking problem.

"They say they're coming to save us from some evil? They're talking about our neighbors who take care of us ... Alex was murdered while he was helping. Mr Rogers said look for the helpers, & right now the helpers have a target on our forehead ... Mr Rogers would be here right now too, so I'm here."

Minnesota is the best of us.

Demonstrators as far as the eye can see. Current status of the march in Downtown Minneapolis, Minnesota for Ice Out of Minnesota. They are turning onto 3rd Street from 5th Avenue.

Lydia Liliʻu Loloku Walania Kamakaʻeha was the only queen regnant and the last sovereign monarch until the overthrow of the Hawaiian Kingdom in 1893, in a coup; composer of "Aloha ʻOe", she wrote her autobiography Hawaiʻi's Story by Hawaiʻi's Queen during her imprisonment following the overthrow.

Dr. Gladys West, the pioneering mathematician whose work laid the foundation for modern GPS technology, has died. She was 95.

honestly that just looks like my regular rice serving

People not in Minnesota: please read this excellent summary of what life is like in Minneapolis since the murderous scum ICE swarmed here. And more are on their way. By local reporter / writer / bike dude / legend @dbrauer.net .

Happy False Ballistic Missile Alert Day to all who celebrate 😬 (This was in 2018!)

“A school official, speaking to MPR News on condition of anonymity, said many students sheltered in a nearby library.” Libraries offer so many kinds of shelter, refuge, galvanization, conviviality, etc. They’re under attack by this regime, too, and must be defended.

I happen to know quite a bit about Venezuelan oil. TL;DR it’s hard to extract, notoriously investor-endangering, isn’t needed (global crude is oversupplied to the tune of 3.3 min bpd) and isn’t easily refined (it’s too dense so always sold at a heavy discount) www.aljazeera.com/amp/news/202...

There are a thousand things Dems could be collectively doing ahead of the reconvening of Congress. American legislators: <huffy social media post> Korean legislators:

THREAD: I'll fact-check all the viral misinformation about the US military operation in Venezuela in this thread This image, purporting to show the US military arresting Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro, is AI-generated. According to Google's SynthID detector, it was created using Google AI.

WE NEED SOME ORCAS We're holding out for some orcas till the end of the night They gotta be strong and they gotta be fast And they gotta be smooth black and white

I did a test to see if I could remember all the Roman numerals, but I forgot 1, 1000, 51, 6 and 500. IM LIVID!

chilling at waikiki brewing after a day of shopping, listening to the striking workers at the doubletree and noting all the marathon runners who just picked up their race packets (the classic porter is pictured but they have a great seasonal imperial vanilla stout on tap right now too) #hibrews
