A compelling case for the responsibility not to relinquish one's responsibility. How to do it humbly and when is not clear to me. It's hard to love our neighbors, and especially when they act like our enemies. But I like this call to do so and want to think more about it.

Rats.

Well, that's interesting. www.espn.com/college-foot...

Almost like there’s a reason that 8 were “surveilled” rather than 40.

If you like amazing, or if you like beautiful, or even if you just like grateful, Yasmin Williams is here for you. But why wouldn't you like all three? www.youtube.com/watch?v=E6-z...

I don't see how this makes us safer.

This is a great piece at the beginning, with reflections on marriage, and the end, with the referral to Ryan Davis. I appreciate it, Tommy. Someone to sit with open.substack.com/pub/tommytom...

If @colbertlateshow.bsky.social isn't around, where will we find stuff like this: www.youtube.com/watch?v=HJrU...

tfw you're reading an old Russian book and somebody sets up the samovar and you think wow my culture sucks and will suck forever until we learn to get down with that samovar life

Tripped up because I guess Tommy Helms never got in at first base? But the number of Reds catchers with 100 rbi is probably pretty small, so I wouldn't have stayed under 10 anyway.

LFG! Win this one for Granville

That's really interesting. I can't argue with it. I think though that the source for some generally-accepted thoughts that are not true might be difficult to identify. And the one who once told me this might just be repeating it with an entirely different set of motivations and assumptions.

I'm laser-focused on the most important issues of the day. Got a 13 in Immaculate Grid with 7 Reds outfielders that I saw play.

Damar Hamlin!

Everyone doubted Player A Team, but he showed them in the end.

Man knows his football.

Hey @ramzy.bsky.social do you know if Jeremiah Smith is allowed to be thrown to against Michigan? It seems like that could be, possibly, a good idea next year.

Don't know the name of that wrestling move by #77 for ASU, but I loved it.

When Jim Banner recruited me for the updated Presidential Misconduct collection, I was busy finishing Fault Lines and joked that I could only handle a light load, so I’d do Carter. But I found he was, if anything, *too* ethical, bending over backward to be transparent. Seems a world away from us.

Liked everything about this but loved the horns. Brilliant. youtu.be/-91vymvIH0c

I think Ted Gioia frequently has great insights about culture. Here's the latest example I've seen. substack.com/home/post/p-...
