You can't raid and arrest everyone in an entire apartment building, or even legitimately get a warrant to do that, any more than you could for a whole neighborhood. That would be a general warrant. This is the most specific core the-British-did-it-to-us thing the Fourth Amendment is written to ban.

also I know we have a sudden death playoff game going but I need to know if it's now the norm when you're on hold with a company for the automated messages reminding you that you are on hold to break in literally every 20 seconds??? anyway playoffs, woo

is retaining things in threes and not being able to come up with the fourth thing if in fact there are four things like... is that the adhd? please advise

Connelly Early will be the 5th pitcher to make a postseason start within his first 5 MLB appearances, including playoffs, joining: Dylan Lee (ATL) - 2021 WS G4 Shane Baz (TB) - 2021 ALDS G2 Ryan Merritt (CLE) - 2016 ALCS G5 Matt Moore (TB) - 2011 ALDS G1 h/t @shanthisc.bsky.social

I often think the Yankees' bullpen is the worst thing I've ever seen on a good team and without fail within 24 hours the Dodgers' basically drives a car into their own front room out of absolutely nowhere

in many ways, I blame the Mets for what the Reds are going through right now. they weren't ready!!! you all left them to deal with this!!

like I said, team of destiny

Here's Michael Knowles a month ago once again calling for the "eradication of transgenderism" and here is a man who threatened to shoot up a gay bar because he wanted to "eradicate transgenderism." This was retweeted by prominent conservatives such as Chris Rufo. This is stochastic terrorism.

Puerto Rico is a U.S. territory (U.S. colony) Bad Bunny is a U.S. citizen. There's a lot of weird framing about him and the super bowl going on right now. He's not an immigrant. He didn't come to America, America came to Puerto Rico. America is the immigrant in that situation.

believe it or not you are allowed to do this (insult people in power to anyone’s face while making no threats of violence at all) whenever you want without threat of being deported, I know that sounds insane

“The Mets spent last autumn exorcising demons and this fall conjuring new ones to take their place.” This is the only guy I’d read after such a disappointing result. Excellent stuff as always.

Since people insist on using world's crappiest lying machine, Grok, to prove that Raleigh would have 70 homers if he played in NY, or whatever, let's take a second to dive into how the Statcast numbers about "HR if he played in X park" works..

I don't have an award vote this year, but if I did.. (Judge over Cal? No wrong answer. Neither can get 'robbed.' Should be a tie. Two all timer yrs. I went with guy who just posted a 215 OPS+, one of best RHB seasons ever, over the C who hit 60 bombs. Lord they're both so good.)

I don’t use the word “evil” very often, but if the shoe fits

2012 was one of my formative years and I had completely forgotten our capacity to devolve into an ugly, unflattering fight between people who want a “play the game the right way” coded guy to win over the best hitter (“big man hit ball, how unrefined”).

all this fuss has made me realize that people really believe that neurotypical people invented computers and scientific formulas and designed subway systems, you know, all these incredibly intricate things that required superhuman levels of attention to detail and interest

Legitimately, the only person I’ve personally seen raise this was Seth Meyers, and I think I take in a pretty average quantity of news, so the free speech freak out in progress re: comedians is, imho, reasonable

The real AL MVP can be found deep inside each one of us

I wish I could make all the “I’m just going to hide from the news and pretend everything is fine” people read this article. I want for you what you want for trans people.

I’m sorry I know we’re all of varying opinions about decency and whether fascists exhibiting decorum is actually a good thing, but I think vice presidents should be held to a higher standard than baseball writers, and I would be in so much trouble if I spoke to anyone like this in public

We don’t call everyone who disagrees with us a Nazi, JD, just the ones doing Nazi shit like: -masked secret police kidnapping people off the street -creating concentration camps -attempting to eradicate trans people -banning/burning LGBTQ/opposing viewpoint books -murdering fishermen in open waters

the AL Central in a nutshell

the American League is trying to teach us all a lesson about momentum and timing, a lesson we probably should have learned last year when the Yankees were unwatchable all summer and then won the pennant, which they might do... again

in a sane world, you could show this to everyone, and it would break them out of their spell. "these words are gibberish, what have i been doing for the last nine years, oh my god"

Brilliant. Now every mother of an autistic child is going to say “I took paracetamol!” And every mother of a “neurotypical” or not yet diagnosed child - “I took paracetamol but I was lucky!” And we can all forget about awkward uncles or misfits from our youth, because there was no name for it then.

The pain and blame are the point. Who is *responsible* for autism? Those selfish people who wanted a lower fever or less back pain while pregnant. It wouldn't surprise me too much if the next target is epidurals.

The on-screen K-zone has ruined so many of your brains and made you perpetually miserable while watching baseball and its death cannot come soon enough

Unfortunately I finally looked into where the new rapture date originated and it was actually *dumber* than I had expected

Pictured - a large group of antifa on their way to commit severe acts of property damage

For anyone who needs to hear this, by virtue of being a “human being” with “empathy” and a concern for “the dignity of others,” well, I regret to inform you that you are and always have been a part of antifa.

my mom took tylenol when she was pregnant, and now I’m a baseball writer … wait a mINUTE

everyone who hates fascism is burned out, working full time for a non-living wage, and like 30% of us have adhd. why do you think we’re so justice-seeking. it’s the neurodivergence.

Respectfully I don’t think you of all people should normalize making decisions based on rumors, like for your own good.

A very, very stupid man.

once again, if tylenol caused autism, america would have a better rail system

1) is this *really* what you guys are worried about right now? 2) being punished for treating people like garbage isn’t “cancellation”. By that logic, 1st graders are the most cancelled demographic. IT IS SO EASY NOT TO BE AWFUL TO PEOPLE.

I was reliably told celebrating political violence was cause for government reprisal and private sector termination.

Everyone basically gets to decide how complicated their legacy is and Clayton Kershaw got so close to retiring as one of the best LHPs in MLB history, no harm done. A loving legacy. Defeat snatched from the jaws of victory. In my professional opinion, that suuuuuucks. For all of us. Him included.

even I couldn’t tell you what this means

It's also darkly funny that this entire monologue was an attempt to refute Ms. Rachel saying "love thy neighbor as yourself." Imagine reading this and rushing to debunk it. ca.news.yahoo.com/fact-check-c...

What Smith means when he says "more vulnerable" is that stock prices are more important than human lives.

genuinely brilliant human being

Charlie Kirk’s death is a tragedy, and I condemn all political violence from wherever it comes. House Republicans designed today’s resolution as a political “gotcha” — one that attempts to put words in my mouth to endorse Kirk’s views. I cannot do that, so I voted “no.”

if Jimmy Kimmel's political humor is too hot for you to handle, I'm not sure "snowflake" even cuts it as a term of derision for the level of fragility you've achieved

Silly Jimmy Kimmel. He should have just called for all homeless people to be killed and he’d still have a job.

I would love to be part of the conversation on MSNBC related to the Kimmel story and it's chilling effects on first amendment, but unfortunately I was terminated by MSNBC for stating that "hateful thoughts lead to hateful words which lead to hateful actions".

the kimmel thing is bad but as long as they arent rounding people up indiscriminately based on race, building concentration camps and talking about eradicating those they deem sexual deviants, i think we’ll be ok

To our trans community: We know it’s been a long year, and that the news cycle and hateful attacks can take a toll. We feel it too. You are not alone. You are loved, you are seen, and we will never stop showing up for you.

the next comment I see calling satire “rage bait” might actually be the one that kills me
