I just want the Democrats, as a whole, to stop trotting out guys who look like they're about to meet in a back room to discuss how to take out the Batman.

Every time we step up to the plate, we keep them from winning. Keep them from winning enough times, we win. They win when we feel despair or give up. Optimism is both punk as fuck and revolutionary.
It's a marathon, not a sprint.

“The difference between liberal and populist parties should be that liberal parties treat human rights seriously,” Rydlinski says. “Research shows that when liberal and left-wing parties accommodate far-right issues, they do not win populist voters, but lose their own.”
What research you say?...

lol I’m not the least bit surprised that you getting “moderately into” baseball involved you learning to keep score, something .5% of baseball fans do

Tigers have a player named Torkelson and all I can think about is Dr Kelso yelling “Turkleton!”

@mlb I paid a $7 “convenience fee” for the privilege of not having my tix emailed to me, and nowhere in any communication was the stadium’s bag policy mentioned, so I missed the first inning walking the whole stadium to find the bag check

I used to live in the NC Triangle and I really miss walking up to the Durham Bulls stadium, buying an $8 ticket, and heading to my seat
