You should watch it. Jenny does a great job breaking down what they did right and wrong. And it turns out it was such a monumental project that you need four hours to talk about it fully.

Our attention spans are dropping precipitously, and it worries me.

The Board of Governors can remove the Postmaster General with a vote.

USC Title 39, Section 202: "(c) The Governors shall appoint and shall have the power to remove the Postmaster General, who shall be a voting member of the Board. His pay and term of service shall be fixed by the Governors."

Picture-in-picture is one of those things that should only happen when I explicitly ask for it, in my opinion.

Does anyone really think that Amazon cares what anyone wants?

If you don't laugh, you'll cry :)

To be fair, it's been ignored for so long it might as well be a secret weapon.

Agreed on the first part, but I'm not sure I agree on the second - the FOP is the best union in the country in terms of protecting its members.

Hell yeah! I was getting a little tired using the portal, tbh.

Not new but hopefully improved. I'm adding a Notes column to indicate things like penalties, own goals, and red cards to add some context to matches. As usual, feedback is always welcome!

I have a ton of hidden columns that tot up things like xG/A under/overperformance, etc. so maybe halfway through the season I'll open that up as well.

Fuck Kavanaugh. That is all.

Interesting. Well, I'm glad you don't have anti-vaxxers, because they are alive and well here, even in a pretty progressive city like mine.

The elderly have almost certainly gotten every booster available to them, understandably, and I'm not so sure about the young. A confounding factor is that most of my friends work at least somewhat remotely, and so only the people who have to see other people in person are masked up.

I have heard the same about the new strains (i.e. more contagious but less serious), but the two people I know who have contracted it this year have both been on their ass for at least a day or two. Add on top of that that we still don't fully understand Long Covid...

In terms of voting population? I imagine 50 is the split point.

From what I understand (person living in the US in their 30s), pretty much everyone I know has gotten the vaccine and 2 boosters. But (allegedly) because insurance companies are no longer footing the bill, pharmacies are stonewalling people asking for the next booster. I know three people who have separately been in contact or contracted the new Covid strain, all of whom couldn't get the latest booster.
