It's vitally important that the videos of the killing by ICE remain public & also no individual not directly involved in reporting on or prosecuting a case about the killing has an obligation to witness them. We can all only carry so much, & we can trust each other to hold up their part of the work.

One thing I've seen a lot of after Willson Contreras got traded was "he's very good with 2 outs and RISP," & he indeed was last year:
.344/.408/.563
But the year before it was
.100/.270/.200
In 23?
.327./476/.551
In 22?
.189/.362/.351
This is why it's not really seen as a repeatable skill.

NEW: Publishers of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette announce they are shutting down the newspaper on May 3, 2026.
Hours ago, the Supreme Court of the US declined to extend a stay on a court order for the paper to pay its journalists following the end of a 3-year strike.

Sorry, but triumphant claims about autonomous vehicle safety are wildly exaggerated.
It's an open question whether today’s self-driving cars are any safer than those driven by humans.
And if reducing crashes is the goal, that isn’t even the right question.

We Still Don’t Know if Robotaxis Are Safer Than Human Drivers
And even if self-driving technology proves to be less dangerous, there are many better ways to improve traffic safety and prevent fatal crashes.

Even at happy hour, you're paying at least $5 for a beer (cocktails even more). A couple of drinks and an appetizer, suddenly you're dropping $30 with a tip.
What Happened to Happy Hour?
As people dial back their drinking and companies reel in fun budgets, the age-old ritual of getting a beer with colleagues is taking a hit.

When I was 23, I saw a bunch of really cute velvet furniture on the side of the road, totally nice. Took it in and a year later a friend’s new gf came to my house and it turns out I’d stolen her entire living room while she was moving.
