Atlanta has been drawing upscale knowledge workers over the course of the past 20 or so years in a way Dallas and Houston have not. That’s been enough to shift the politics leftward.

Someday the story will come out about what leverage Mamdani wielded over him to completely bring Trump to heel, and I hope I live long enough to hear it.

Probably what’s left of their voting rights.

Every one of them

They’re all white, so it’s all right.

Interested in hearing the specific issue you see leading to this specific advice. I admit I am not quite savvy enough to intrinsically understand.

Atlanta has long profiled as more progressive than Houston.

Interesting game yesterday in that the Tigers were down to their last strike in the top of ninth down 3-1, then came back to take the lead 4-3; then in the bottom of the ninth the Tigers were two strikes from winning, then gave up the run to end the game in a tie. In a way, the top of the ninth encapsulated the Tigers’ 2024, and the bottom of the ninth the Tigers’ 2025.

DirecTV Extra Innings charges me the same either way: $149.99 for both satellite channels and MLB.tv, which incudes MLB audio (although I get that through my SiriusXM subscription anyway, which I prefer because of the commercials situation). I get the convenience of just putting on the TV and pressing three digits and select to get my channel, but if I do want the option of going to MLB.tv on my Apple TV box and navigating through several menus and choices to get a game, I can do that, too. I have 99 problems, but FanDuel was never one.

Priorities.

How will Trump escalate this?

I hate the contemplate the idea that the candidates who replace them are going to be far worse as MAGAts and the Trump machine will fraud them into Congress.

Not exactly true. Atlanta has long been considered a much more progressive city than Dallas, Houston, or any other Texas city except Austin.

They are all damaged, from the top on down. A mentally healthy person wouldn't work for him.

I got a fill-up of gas for $3.99 a gallon while the getting was good.

Haven't had a double post in a long time

True though this may be, Georgia is a friendlier environment to northern ex-pat management, professionals, and academics—the kind of people most likely to move for a job—than Texas is.

Seeing as how he’s a public figure who has traded on his disability, I’ll allow it.

Obviously anti-police, trying to limit their ability to work and get them to leave the force, the commie bastard.

That's fine, although I just don't think "kids these days" really applies here. Pitchers weren't necessarily better as a cohort when we were eleven years old. They may actually be far better as a cohort today than at any time in the history of baseball.

Or maybe this is on-the-ground training for when Trump sends the military into blue- and purple-state cities this October to "monitor the elections".

Politico is MSM? Since when?

I don’t get it—where’s the money?

Remember how Pete Davidson made Dan Crenshaw famous, and then Crenshaw made Pete Davidson walk on eggshells on SNL for basically no reason? That’s all anyone will remember Dan Crenshaw for.

And yet teams still need more than ten guys on the pitching staff. No chance they’d be able to reduce a pitching staff to one. In this game, them’s the breaks. The important thing is not that teams have to figure out how to boil down their staff to only the one guy who can get out major leaguers so he can pitch every inning in a season, but to ensure that their ten guys who can’t get out major leaguers does at least a marginally better job at it than all the other teams’ ten guys who can’t get out major leaguers. That’s how it’s always been, and that’s how it’ll always be.
