Feels gratuitous at this point but what the heck livescience.com/59289-why-men-…
I mean, I bet that, say, Sue Bird is probably faster than me and has better reflexes than me and can do a lot of things athletically better than I can, which doesn't really answer the issue of basic physiology.
Mike Trout could outhit me even if I was allowed to use an aluminum bat and he was forced to use a wooden one, but that's not a reason to allow aluminum bats in the majors
And it would be even more idiotic to say, "Well, see, this proves that aluminum bats aren't an advantage over wood bats" which is pretty much what ACLU is doing

Boy, am I seeing a lot of overheated and misguided commentary about the Liz Cheney vote. Here's what the vote does and does not mean. 1/
The vote was not at all a referendum on Trump or Trumpism within the House GOP. Trump already won those votes overwhelmingly when only 10 House members voted to impeach him. 2/
It was won before that when virtually all House Republicans, including Cheney, endorsed and voted for Trump in 2020. The overwhelming majority of the House caucus voted both a) not to impeach Trump and b) not to remove Cheney from leadership for disagreeing, 3/

I gotta say: when the Jacob Blake story broke, I did not believe there might be a possible circumstance where a person being shot in the back seven times would be justified. After a full recounting of the facts in the case, it seems Blake worked really hard at it. 1/
By his own admission, he was armed with a knife. He struggled with a police officer while holding that same knife, and refused orders to drop the knife even while being held at gunpoint. 2/
But it doesn't even stop there. Police were summoned into contact with Blake by an ex who had an order of protection against him due to a sexual assault and had reported to police that he was back (obviously in violation of that order) and had stolen her rental car & keys. 3/

Two things are both true at once. The first is that anyone who used violence or threat of violence in an attempt to overturn the election results yesterday engaged in a form of domestic terrorism and should have the book thrown at them. 1/
The second is that BLM protesters this summer stormed government buildings, forcibly occupied them, burned and damaged them, assaulted police officers, and literally took command of entire areas of major American cities. 2/
The media immediately and correctly leapt to call the first group terrorists, insurrectionists, a mob, and rioters. They called the second group "mostly peaceful protesters." 3/

Ho boy do I have words to say about these remarks from Birx
Let me start by saying that no one should be harassing or threatening public officials' families. To the extent that people may have broken the law in doing so, I hope law enforcement gets involved and holds the people responsible accountable. 2/
Part two, and separate from that, STFU. I mean this with all the respect I can muster, which at the moment is zero. Does this woman not understand that there are MILLIONS of families who have been going through this same exact stuff because SHE TOLD THEM TO?? 3/

Watching Cuomo's reaction to the Supreme Court ruling and it just amazes me how blind he is to his own biases. I'm not really a religious person and haven't attended a worship service of any kind in years. 1/
But it is patently obvious to me, because I'm not an idiot, that exercises of religious freedom are being discriminated against in New York (and many other places) relative to secular activities. 2/
If there's a public health related reason for a certain number of people not to be in a certain kind of space, then it doesn't matter the reason people might get together in those spaces. 3/

Just stop, dude. You had your chance to evenly enforce these rules and the whole country watched you not do it. No one is going to abide by this. You blew it.
Measures like this only work in the setting of overwhelming public compliance. America (thankfully) does not have enough law enforcement to force public compliance with an edict like this, so its efficacy depends on public faith in its elected officials.
When they see these measures being enforced against some populations but not others, a large enough percentage of the population to wreck the whole plan sees that (justifiably!) as an indictment of the honesty of politicians and the media.
