I think an American flag created entirely by black men at the Superbowl is one of the best pieces of art I've seen in my lifetime. I hope it actually killed some folks. And I hope it finally closes the fucking book on the argument that we shouldn't use the flag to fight the God damned fascists.

I've grown fond of this place! But to ward against the possibility that Bluesky might one day collapse into a social media black hole, you should preemptively subscribe to my newsletter, which has free & paid options. And you can always find me (& the newsletter) via my website at andreapitzer.com.

Joe Sheehan@sheehannewsletter.bsky.social

Here's my first pitch on Bluesky: I have written my subscription baseball Newsletter for nearly 15 years, more than 2,500 people get it, and I hope you'll be the next one. Read a bunch of free ones here and then sign up. You'll never look back. www.joesheehan.com/p/sheehan-ne...

Fully-fleshed story from @brettballantini.bsky.social updated at the link below now, so if you checked in earlier and wondered about the rush-job bare-bones breaking business, drop back in and take a look at some complete player capsules and trade analysis. Or, if you like to harbor grudges, don't.

I wrote about natural experiments: a great social experiment from Britain in 1953; how Russian holidays affect the behavior of online trolls; how the fates of Polynesian society diverged due to their island conditions; and what we can learn from spiders on Guam: www.forkingpaths.co/p/the-world-...

forkingpaths.coThe World is a LaboratoryMuch of what we know about the world comes from experiments. But few aspects of human society can be contained in a laboratory. History offers a powerful alternative tool: natural experiments.

Every now and then I think about this wild Salon story from 2001 investigating whether a circus mogul diverted an investigative journalist from writing about his family by secretly ghost-commissioning a book from her on a different topic, keeping her busy for years.

22000 days ago (September 6, 1964), a big day for TOOTBLAN lovers at Comiskey Park. In the second game of a doubleheader, Cleveland makes all three outs in the second inning on the basepaths. Ryan Theriot hadn't been born yet, but was obviously inspired by this game.

foxsports.comAppreciating TOOTBLAN & other new baseball lingoI’ve got a love-hate relationship with lingo, or jargon. I love it when it’s shared amongst my friends, family, and followers. I hate it when it’s used in a discussion that seems to exclude me. But I ...

A new piece from me, on how we can reckon with the rogue-state bullshit and all the other state-sponsored bullshit that’s headed our way, a legacy of decades—even centuries—of America’s failures, of which Trump seems to epitomize all the worst aspects.
