I listened to the latest Poscast today, and regarding the players with outsized confidence or boisterousness, I feel like you missed an obvious one. As a fellow New England sports fan, Dustin Pedroia I feel like has to be towards the top of that list.

Tulsa Massacre Was a ‘Coordinated, Military-Style Attack,’ Federal Report Says The Justice Department’s conclusion follows an investigation of the 1921 atrocity in Oklahoma in which up to 300 Black residents were killed.

“The Tulsa Race Massacre of 1921, in which a prosperous Black neighborhood in Oklahoma was destroyed and up to 300 people were killed, was not committed by an uncontrolled mob but was the result of “a coordinated, military-style attack” by white citizens.”

Boston! With a caveat that I am very biased. Though I think an argument can be made. Maybe a little top heavy and not as deep with pitching as you'd like to see, but with last year's draft I think that will change a year from now, And the heaviness at the top is very exciting.

Every fucking word of this.👇

A key asymmetry of this era of American politics and how it’s covered is that Trump is expected to do bad and corrupt things, so when he does it barely qualifies as news. But Dems are expected to be beyond reproach, so anything that seems even slightly suspect is a huge scandal.

This Oberlin College sophomore speaks for the entire Democratic Party, meanwhile the Heritage Foundation somehow doesn't speak for the Republican Party despite issuing a policy document they're all following and employing all those guys on their own campaigns

Imma need some of you to think about thriving out of spite. I had big plans for 2025 and I’m definitely not gonna pre-derail them for likes of Elin and Tromp. I’m getting more involved. Loving harder. Writing hornier. Having more fun. I’m gonna be so kind to my neighbors, bitch.

It is so absolutely bonkers that two sitting Supreme Court Justices supported a coup attempt.

Of all the insane things that have happened over the past eight years - that might be the most insane.

The manuscript of Midnight and Blue. 4th draft. It’ll be published October.

New book done - for now. Weekend ahoy: record shops, maybe a pub, some reading for pleasure… Oh, and foul weather if the forecast is right.

The cover of How to Win at Super Mario Bros. Games by Jeff Rovin.

A prose description of the opening of World 1-1 in Super Mario Bros.

This book is bonkers. It includes prose walkthroughs of every level in the first three Super Mario games (plus Super Mario Land) with no screenshots whatsoever.

Imagine getting to, like, World 7-3 and having to come up with a fresh new way of writing "jump over the pipe."

The problem is that this immediately assumes Gay is a *victim*, not a person in a position of immense privilege (and in fact from a background of immense privilege), who, as an adult, made some bad decisions, and is now facing normal adult consequences.

And this is true *even though* Rufo is evil.

The pathology of “well ACTUALLY there ARE times it’s ok to use the n-word” is just fascinating. These losers can’t get jailed or sued for being racist but they are wishcasting so fucking hard for that magic universe where you can be a dick like them but be protected from people’s opinions about it
