That's called socialism. Or perhaps, National Socialism.

I got really excited about Woodrow Wilson's 14 Points when I learned about them in high school history class. I'm sad to find that no one seems to have ever heard of them.

One thing about the Harrell v Wilson election. It sounds like a run off for British parliament circa 1966.

Don't take it from a fan boy like me. Dedicated tennis journalist Ben Rothenberg on the WTA year-end ballot: "I won’t pretend that this was a tough call: the WTA Player of the Year for 2025 has to be Aryna Sabalenka." @wtatour.bsky.social

The irony is that I don't know a single one of my Wrapped Top 5 Songs because they all come from my "Inner Journey" sleep mix, which I put on every night before bed.

I'm a super Sabalenka fanboy. And I think this Sabalenka vs Kyrgios stunt is forced and cringe worthy.

Finally watched the clip of Trump's Hitler bit on Somalis. So, I'm sorry if this point has already been made. But the unwitting irony of HIM complaining about Somalis "always complaining" ? His projection is a pathology.

Sigh. By this logic, they should ban Aryna, Iga, Coco, Anisimova, Rybakina, and Qinwen who all play in another dimension from the rest of the WTA tour. : (
SCOOP: The United States Tennis Association (USTA) quietly updated its player eligibility policy to ban trans women from competing as women in their leagues, tournaments and competitions in order to comply with Trump's anti-trans sports executive order. The policy went into effect on Monday.

The national tennis governing body's policy change was made with no announcement.

In her prescient 1961 poem "Artificial Intelligence," not only does Adrienne Rich identify luscious existential nausea as a human tell, but earlier, in the first stanza of the poem, she rebelliously revels in another human joy: free association.

But Ballard.
how many times has the Seattle Times run a "compassion is great, but" editorial arguing for a lack of compassion at this point? we get it, you think homelessness should be illegal, find literally anything else to talk about. (Also, no Seattle neighborhood has been "destroyed," good god.)

And there you have it in a nutshell. We go from Duff McKagan & Wally Walker to Anna Zivarts and Jaelynn Scott. Go Katie Wilson!!
Mayor-elect Katie Wilson just announced her transition team, with 61 members overseeing different policy areas. Transition teams are largely an expression of values and policy focus, although I expect some of these folks will end up in the administration. publicola.com/wp-content/u...
