Baseball is the best!
Bottom of the 9th Bases loaded Two outs Down by one Jackson Chourio provided an all-time moment for Milwaukee 😤

Put both Magic games up there as in reality Magic is an order of magnitude more than the others. Picking a single Madden is also a bit silly. MLB the Show would likely be my #10

I'm happy Crowley won, he's a good dude and was one of Jbro's best friends. He also just has a much better chance of winning vs Tiffany in the general. I'm also happy Flannagan won in MN, its a much safer dem state so having the more liberal person win there is also good.

This hits on a thing I see all the time talking to people that aren't really using AI as more than a fun little toy, or glorified search engine...they just don't at all understand what it's currently capable of, so dismiss worries/claims of people ringing alarm bells.

If you have a way to watch the Brewers when he's pitching it's very special stuff.
11 strikeouts from Jacob Misiorowski. That's tied for the most by any pitcher through four innings in the pitch tracking era. And they've all been on the fastball. This is bonkers.

I keep trying to tell my very Madison centric liberal friends this...Hong is a pretty big underdog to Tiffany, all the other possibilities are better to actually win the race.
Replying to @MollyBeck
In head-to-head matchups, Hong trails Republican candidate for governor Tom Tiffany 40-43. Mandela Barnes leads Tiffany 44-40.

Magic folks might remember Hambly from his humble "Be an asshole to magic cosplayer" beginnings...
The Forward: Republican candidate for Wisconsin governor Tom Tiffany appeared with podcast host who defended “Camp Auschwitz” t-shirt Rep. Tom Tiffany went on Jeremy Hambly’s show, where the far-right host offered to campaign for him forward.com/news/839312/wisc…

This is one of the many reasons X isn't real life, the loudest people on here really are ideological and screaming at and past each other. – at McFarland, WI
Most voters lack an ideology; they just have a bunch of basically unconsidered intuitive opinions. That’s why trying to appeal to them with zealous animating ideology tends to work less well than approximating the aggregate of those clusters of opinion.

We've been running an unprecedented natural experiment running for a decade and half. 30 states have raised their minimum wages. 20 have not. What happened to pay? What happened to jobs? The good news is that it's pretty easy to figure out now. Link next post.

I saw Project Hail Mary over the weekend, and it was great. The kind of story about humans doing something great and at the same time making a very basic connection to others. Book was also great and recommend going to see it and/or read it.

Ron Johnson opposed the expanded child tax credit that dramatically cut child poverty, but he did just vote for a $6000 senior deduction. We’re all trying to find the guy that did this.
As @MayaMacGuineas explains, right now we spend $6 on seniors for every $1 on kids under 18. When Social Security began, seniors were the poorest — today children are. To add insult to injury, we have mortgaged their future with $39 trillion in debt and growing. It is immoral what we are doing to our children and grandchildren.

I'm sure he's a dog to win the general election, but I'm happy to see Talarico win the dem primary. Certainly think he gives the best chance in Texas for dems.
It’s official: James Talarico is the Democratic nominee for U.S. Senate in Texas. James has the energy, vision, and next-generation leadership voters are craving. We saw it tonight, and we’ll see it again come November. Let’s do this.
