American journalism and the American legal establishment are very similar actually; both demand all the rewards and accolades of fulfilling an important role in society while violently rejecting any of the obligations. Both defined by fawning sycophancy that they've defined as courage.

Look, plantar fascitis sucks but I think this guy has bigger issues going on

DO YOU SING?

Abdul Carter on Jaxson Dart: "If he chooses to align himself with a man like President Trump, it's my responsibility based on what I believe and what I stand on to not only show my teammates that I'm against that, but to show the world."

Top Trump cabinet member tells Americans to be grateful their skyrocketing gas prices aren’t even higher: "It's not nothing, but it's been less than $200 in extra gasoline cost."

Our entire economy is being artificially propped up by astrology for men: AI, crypto, sports betting, and prediction markets. It's an economy shaped entirely by male insecurity and lack of impulse control, and we'll all pay the price.

This Galvin Green fella seems like he might be worth a look as a right handed power bat. #Mets #MetsSky

Okay, I love this Reds pitcher Maxwell. It looks like he got the gig winning a trivia night at Buffalo Wild Wings. (And he’s throwing 100mph?) #MetsSky #Mets

This is textbook racism. As in, this is an example that an elementary teacher might use to explain racism to a child: "If someone says all members of a particular race are stupid, that's racism, kids." Any news outlets that uses any word for this except racism is not reporting the truth.

“Vientos their only right handed power bat. It’s the right move.” I’m old enough to remember when the problem for Pete was that there were so many right handed power bats out there the market was soft. Yet here we are. #MetsSky #Mets

What a life. What a legacy. What a blessing to have been enveloped by his sound.

This is the type of utterance that made having to stay and smoke weed with your dealer such a chore.

Trump's frequent trips to Walter Reed raise new questions about Joe Biden's health.

One bright spot in an otherwise execrable Mets season is they have been so execrable, for so long, #MetsSky has started to get some juice. Good stuff on this site today regarding the bad stuff on Citi Field. #lgm

I can't quite explain it but these dogs look like they *know* they're Mets fans

Here's an SEM micrograph of what 'Scratch and Sniff' stickers looks like at the microscopic scale. The rough spots are the exposed microcapsules of volatile oils while the smooth bumps are unruptured, sealed "bottles" of scent. How do they form? (🔬: Science Photo Library)

The idea that there is something to be learned from arguing with ignorant dickheads must have been originated by an ignorant dickhead. We don't have to accept it. There's really nothing to be gained.

I have a real problem with the Mets postgame spending the majority of their time criticizing the rookies. The kids are literally the only reason I am watching games and 10s of millions of dollars in salary was also in the lineup getting shut out today. #metssky

This is Adam Hoffman, a 49-year-old Waco, TX attorney. He faced life without parole for repeatedly raping a young boy. Texas AG Ken Paxton offered him 1 day in jail & no sex offender status. A judge increased his sentence to 60 days. Not an immigrant. Not a trans person. Not a Black or brown person

Hey, if you're represented by Henry Cuellar (TX) Don Davis (NC) Cleo Fields (LA) Laura Gillen (NY) Vicente Gonzalez (TX) Marcy Kaptur (OH) Marie Glusenkamp Perez (WA) Eugene Vindman (VA) Give 'em a jingle and ask why they're voting with Republicans to support HR 2616, the national book ban bill?

He reads the silly post He reads the scoldy post He reads the jokey post And the pedantic post He reads the posts that remind him of the bad site He reads the posts that remind him of the worst site Don’t screenshot that, troll behavior

The bases loaded bunt, the Baty play to second base, something the Mets have been missing is players playing the game like they are really fucking good at baseball and I love this change. #Metssky #lgm

Mets up by 4 in the 12th and I was about to go to bed fat and happy when I heard “Kimbrel ready to come in.” Oh dear. #MetsSky #Mets #lgm

“Old time hockey!“ #LGM, #Mets, #MetsSky

I see the Yankees defense is already in playoff form. #lgm #metssky #mets

A colleague received bad news from her NIH program officer today: my colleague’s grant got a great score, but NIH still can’t pay it, and my colleague will have to closer her lab. The call ended with the program officer (not my colleague) crying. Awful on so many levels.

This remarkable colour photograph of hot air balloons at the inaugural Paris Air Show was taken in 1909 by Léon Gimpel, using the Autochrome Lumière process, the first commercial process for colour photography

In 13 years of learning about various government programs and agencies, the two-word phrase that explains the most, and that I most wish the general public knew about and understood, is “administrative burden”.

The Sargent at Arms blocks Representative Justin Pearson from Memphis from entering a committee meeting about redrawing the map specifically for the district he represents.

Things I don't miss about smoking: The smell The cost The effects on my health Things I miss about smoking: Smoking

can’t think of much that’d beat an old fashioned and a stack of french toast, except maybe having them with a weirdly sweet and introspective round of rain delay questions

No idea who this reporter is but if that's what you're seeing ... maybe write that, rather than waiting for TMZ? nymag.com/intelligence...

Have a group chat of college friends that’s just Phillies and Mets fans

They think you're stupid.

Trump starting a Gerrymandering war he couldn’t finish feels a whole lot Trump starting trade wars he couldn’t finish and this Iran war he can’t finish. He’s not playing chess people.

Positionless players make positionless plays. #Mets #LGM

Ahh yes, five year olds at a park—notoriously focused on long conversations.

Pennsylvania's auditor general, a Republican, audited 210,000+ new voter registrations under Gov. Shapiro's new motor voter system to see if noncitizens were registering to vote. They found one. One. And that was because a PennDOT staffer erred. It was fixed before the driver left the office.

”Pinch Hitter Tyrone Taylor” has real “Center Fielder Jeff McNeil” energy.

Seems like the Strait of Hormuz is only open when the stock market is.

Looks like everyone is talking about the Mets season.

“When you’re a boom mic, they let you do it. You can do anything.”

It’s profoundly ignorant to suggest that the Pope should be fighting crime on behalf of the Catholic Church. Anyone who was remotely familiar with Roman Catholicism would know that that’s what Daredevil is for

Swalwell to FoxNews, is my prediction.
