There’s a thunderstorm rolling in the distance. The summer-night air is cool. I’m flying to see my mom and dad for the weekend. I worry about the world. Sometimes I am also glad to be reminded that I am small in it.

Underworld in Chicago last night was absolutely incredible. So great to finally see Rick and Karl in person after 30 years.

Great to see Liz Lopatto at @theverge.com among the journalists who still have the courage to call the wealthy to account for their horrors: www.theverge.com/amazon/66791...

Tarik Skubal struck out the side in order in the second inning, including Gary Sanchez on this 99 mph fastball. Skubal has 5 strikeouts thru 2 scoreless innings, with only a Gunnar Henderson single allowed.

What you don’t see in this video are the previous two sliders that Manny Machado, a six-time All-Star, whiffed at like a beer-league softball player.
