This is no laughing matter. People work all week so they can get drunk on Sunday and watch men in the USA do this to their brains. 21 percent of high school players brains show signs of CTE. Those are dead brains. They say it can only be tested after death. Look at the picture.

I enjoyed this by @benclemens.bsky.social -- I remember when I was trying to guess a viable number for Shohei Ohtani, a friend that worked in tech said, nope, embrace the risk, swing big, that's what the most successful companies do. It's an interesting foil to the 'build a 54% winner' hedging.

I have covered both Musk and Alex a lot, and only one of them is a useful idiot for Putin and also a heinous person. The other is a patriot who did his job with distinction and is a very good man. Guess which is which: thehill.com/policy/techn...

Today is Sunday the best day for a dividend country watch opposing teams beat their brains in, in hopes that their teenage boy may one day grown in to that man. CTE is real and I’m not going to stop. 21 percent of dead men’s brains studied came back positive after only playing high school ball.

Trying to put together a list to make sense of what's happening in Syria. I'd emphasize this is a list in process, will be added to, pruned, edited. Lots of fog of war too. But still includes a lot of knowledgable people and gives some sense of what's happening bsky.app/profile/did:...

I can’t believe the NFL put the Dolphins on Thanksgiving night so we can all see Tua continue to lose his brain

yippee, our article on power & inequality is now up at SER. We introduce a measure of global ideology (fig 1), finding a large rightward shift since 1980. We link rightward shifts in national (fig 2) & global ideology to increased income inequality within countries. doi.org/10.1093/ser/...

On Thanksgiving let’s reflect on CTE and 21 percent of high school players brains that come back positive for it. Or we could gamble on NFL

The NY Times obtained this diagram from the federal sex trafficking investigation of Matt Gaetz showing he made thousands of dollars in payments to women who told investigators they had sex with him for money. This is the redacted version. More here: www.nytimes.com/2024/11/20/u...

I always find it weird how the hard right covets cutting federal jobs, cutting federal jobs—which means thousands upon thousands of newly unemployed. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...
