Did not expect one of the best paragraphs I’d read about baseball would come from an Irish newspaper

www.irishexaminer.com/sport-column...

And in that pause between pitch and contact - longer than logic, shorter than hope - we remembered why baseball existed long before we judged a sport's value by viral moments and betting apps. It is the romance of failure. The mortal beauty of trying and missing seven times out of 10 and still being considered great. It is the only sport where patience is a weapon, and panic the surest death. You cannot simply run out the clock in baseball; you must face it, pitch by terrifying pitch, until it finally releases you.

Sharpening skills is already being done with AD being seen for unusual (for age group) medical issues.
Young troops being seen for kidney issues no family hx of; which usually affects peds/geriatric patients.
I'm still weirded out that I'm one of the younger pt being seen at my VA renal clinic.

“high-volume, high-complexity, busy” treatment facilities is a way to ensure "medical providers sharpen their skills as they take care of a wide variety of patients"
*this is also true of VA* & the GOP push to privatize will ultimately harm patients

Military medical facilities aim to woo back Medicare-eligible patients

21 military treatment facilities are prioritizing bringing back Tricare for Life patients.

This is what an MTF needs is a higher patient acuity with little staffing increase. s/

And DHA can't depend on .mil staff to fill roles because of Optempo.
Even without the Medicare population, there is enough DoD pop. being seen for unusual (for age group) issues. (See toxic exposures)

Read Hope Never Dies. I thought it was a good read. I remember listening to the audio book, and the voice acting leaned into the cheesiness.

I have been charged in a federal indictment sought by the Department of Justice.

This political prosecution is an attack on all of our First Amendment rights. I’m not backing down, and we’re going to win.

So, the E-3 living in the shitty bricks, eating take out because the DFAC is closed for sanitary, and trying to send money back to family, is SOL.

Or the HN single parent who has to rely on SNAP because existing costs way too much. And is set to deploy soon is also SOL.

I hate this.

They found money to pay the ICE thugs, but not to feed the kids…

As government shutdown persists, ICE agents are among the still-paid employees receiving ‘super checks’ including lost pay and overtime | Fortune

Public finance expert Linda Bilmes says the “arbitrariness” of who gets paid and who doesn’t during shutdowns exposes the “dysfunction” of the budget approval process.

Growing up, my parents' peers were auntie and uncle. Hell, my kids refer to my best friends as uncle and auntie.

The comments in the actual article are very racist. Also, tell me you don't have a family (in all definitions) without telling me you don't have a family.

Speaking as a dude who has a yearly family reunion, "aunt" and "uncle" fill a role, what the fuck are you supposed to call all those other older people you're vaguely related to, do you think there's someone running around with an org chart saying who's a second cousin thrice removed or something

My Post headline

Mamdani didn’t tell the whole truth about his hijab-wearing ‘aunt’ who feared for safety post-9/11

The “aunt” who Zohran Mamdani said was too afraid to wear her hijab on the subways after 9/11 was actually his dad’s cousin.

I've been getting fliers about Prop 50. And I love analyzing them. From the color choices, to who is represented on them, and the font used. And who are the ads appealing to.

And weirdly I've been getting NYC political ads on YouTube.

This shitbag just wants to cosplay as a cool guy. Meanwhile, the sailors maintaining the jets and equipment, and the Os flying them, are not getting paid.

I hope he puked or passed out.

I love history. And objects can tell stories. The East Wing held many stories, and items within it told more stories.

Now the epstein ballroom just tells a story of a whiny bitch who destroyed a piece of history to compensate for his tiny...hands.

Has anyone confirmed that the priceless items in the East Wing were moved out before he demolished it?
