That was the statement of a cooked president of baseball operations on behalf of a cooked front office about a cooked team with a cooked manager. Everyone is cooked, a slow braise that's been smelling the house up all Sunday afternoon (it smells awful in there).

I don't think anyone pretending there isn't an effort underway by Republicans to eradicate trans people from public life can be taken seriously at this point.
Trans Kansan's being stripped of their licenses due to having previously - legally - changed their gender marker is absolutely shocking.

A person who misses the letter - let's they moved and forgot to have their mail forwarded - could drive to work and be arrested for driving without a license.

"Horseshoe Theory" is the theory that horses need shoes. It's controversial because most animals don't wear shoes.

Just started doing new data analysis and I know I keep saying this, but: I really, really don't think people appreciate how much this moral panic was a deliberate and extremely expensive invention.

The push toward the corporate center that started with Clinton attracts people who don't actually believe in anything but comfort and the status quo. That's who most modern elected Democrats are, passive warriors for the status quo. The exact wrong people for the moment.

New for Avrysports:

Ken Dryden will forever be one of the greatest goalies in NHL history, but his stance on concussions and how we can improve player safety will always be one of the greatest things he never backed down on. A king in using your platform for good.

And he's lying by the way. Gavin Newsom gave a toast at Gigi Gorgeous' and Nats Getty's wedding. Gigi Gorgeous is a trans woman influencer. Nats Getty, who is Gavin's godchild, came out as nonbinary and then a trans man. Gavin understands the issue, he's being cynical and calculating.
im always taken aback by just how much cis people will humiliate themselves to be dicks to trans people. like sorry, youre confused about pronouns? how did you make it thru 6th grade english you slimy dipshit? why are you going on podcasts to advertise youre too stupid to understand simple concepts?

World Athletics says that "The SRY gene is a reliable proxy for determining biological sex." The guy who literally discovered the gene and has spent the last 35 years researching it says they're wrong. theconversation.com/world-athlet...
World Athletics’ mandatory genetic test for women athletes is misguided. I should know – I discovered the relevant gene in 1990
World Athletics says its genetic test for women ensures ‘the integrity of women’s sport’ – but science does not support this overly simplistic idea.

Centrist/Moderate is great branding because it implies reasonableness but there's nothing reasonable about stubbornly clinging to pro-business and pro-upper class politics when the country is falling apart. This is an ideology like any other, and it's a bad one
While progressives often get accused of undermining the Democratic Party, the evidence shows that it’s the moderate wing that most often violates the “Vote Blue No Matter Who” principle.

This was Vin Scully's call of Henry Aaron's 715th home run. Tonight Major League Baseball cut off the first sentence, starting it with the "What a marvelous moment" part because they don't want to anger the white supremacists who run our country and of whom Rob Manfred is an ardent supporter.

There are no distractions. It's all bad. Systematically stripping trans people of their rights, guys in balaclavas shoving any brown person with a tattoo into a ummarked vans, ending healthcare for millions. It's all in service of fascism and technofeudalism. It's all one thing. That's the point.
