It’s been ages since I read them but the Edge Chronicles were so weird and good in my memory. More steampunk sci-fi but I loved the Mortal Engines series

Substituting Texas toast for an everything bagel…it’s worth a shot

Seems like a weird fit since I don’t imagine he’ll stick around if he doesn’t make the major league roster

I wonder if it’s not that it only resonated with them, but that it was only aimed at them? And she assumed her name recognition would cut into the margins with other groups enough to win?

I got my wish about avoiding a runoff and the Republicans going to one, so the bad posts are flowing off me like water off a ducks back.

My biggest ask is that it doesn’t go to a runoff so I can enjoy the next few weeks of Cornyn and Paxton knifing each other

*does not die lol

Everything Ray Davis does is vice signaling. This statue, the lack of Pride Night, being the first team to bring employees back to the office during COVID. When given a choice, he always picks the worst one and die so gladly. I can’t wait for the day he doesn’t own the team anymore

I think the data case is probably that the Harris County poll by the University of Houston might be a more accurate reflection of the breakdowns than the statewide polls? 2000 likely Democratic primary voters in the poll, showing her up by 2 with racial breakdowns a lot different than the UT poll

It doesn’t help that two of the most recent big polls (the statewide one and the Harris County one) both by the University of Houston, basically contradict each other.

That’s an angle I hadn’t considered but makes a ton of sense! The longer tenured local prospect writers are pretty realistic, I think. But theres a certain type of fan prospect poster that is heavy in the Rangers ecosystem for sure. I never realized that was unique to the team, so thats enlightening

Why do you think there’s that split? Is it just because their system is heavy with interestingish arms, even though none have actually popped in the majors yet? That seems to be the big split I’ve seen, that for all the praise their best result is Leiter not being a reliever. Or improving Rosario

I’ve been surprised to see Caden Scarborough jump onto a few top 100 lists this year, but BP seems to be the low publication on him. Any big flags y’all are seeing that kept him off?

The “prosecute the former regime at every level” candidate has my vote in 2028.

Here's the ICE agent "defending himself" by shooting into the driver's side window of a car that's pulling *away* from him.

Put this photo on the front page of every newspaper in America.

A reminder that the US killed 80 people in Venezuela, and it would be nice if the US media cared enough to think that the life of a grandmother in Caracas whose building is destroyed by a US bomb matters as much as the life of a person in the US.

I’m a fan of the Rangers so there’s the division rivals aspect. And having all of baseball fawn over the Mariners 20 years of ineptitude has been annoying.

*have not been

Former Yankees greats (looking at Mariano) have been covering themselves in glory lately either. Biggest surprise for me about a baseball player’s politics was learning Michael Young donated to Obama

Nothing will ever make me wish for that much Brock Holt or David Dahl or Khris Davis again

Sorry, banning them from talking to recruits for 14 weeks not 14 months. Still much larger than those punishments usually are

Banning them from talking to recruits for over a year seems like the more notable punishment

88% accuracy on average meets the ‘good’ criteria for me. That’s up 5% in a decade!

RFK Jr. disparaged vaccines dozens of times in recent years and misled on race A Post examination of Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s statements finds the candidate for the nation’s top health post has repeatedly disparaged vaccines, linking them to autism.

NEW: @laurenweberhp.bsky.social + I analyzed over 400 of RFK Jr.'s appearances since 2020 and found that he has disparaged vaccines in at least 114 appearances, falsely linked vax to autism in 36, and argued that White + Black people should have separate vaccination schedules

What does the team think was the cause of García’s downturn last year and what are they hoping he’ll do to fix those issues?
