“There is no good society without a good union.”

If I’m in upper management of the Rays, I’m giving the PR department (or whomever composed their superior message) a free lunch today.

You found me out. You’re right and I’m wrong.

“Mr. President, the Russian nukes are in the air, en route to Washington! How do we proceed?”

I once got in an argument with an internet commenter, but he told me he was right and I was wrong, so I changed my mind.

Behavior can be widely considered treasonous without meeting the specific legal standard. You are correct that a U.S. court would not be able to deliver a guilty verdict of “treason,” but Trump isn’t going to be tried in a U.S. court anytime soon. First comes the court of public opinion and, hopefully, impeachment in…

“Vladimir, did you chop down that cherry tree?”

If being pessimistic at all costs is a workable strategy for you, then by all means, continue.

Right? I didn’t want to go off on too many tangents in my original comment, but that’s huge, too.

I think it’s valuable information for Mueller’s investigation. And I think it deflates a lot of the arguments that all those meetings with Russian representatives were innocent and proper. It’s not a smoking gun but it could point the way to one.

This might seem like just another drop in a stream of such stories, but I think this is actually quite significant. Don Jr., Manafort and Kushner meeting with a key Putin-linked figure on a topic related to sanctions? And then they deny that it happened, until forced to admit that it did? This goes a long way to…

I think you might have a stale loaf of bread capable of filling that role.

It was a not-quite-common practice in ancient and medieval times for a ruler to co-rule with their heir once the heir reached adulthood. I expect the idea was to prevent the heir from overthrowing papa and seizing power entirely.

It’s really fantastic how libraries have transformed to stay relevant in a digital age. Not to mention that there’s still a lot of people who prefer printed material.

If they’d run with a chance of actually accomplishing something, I would’ve been fine with it. But there was no realistic scenario where the Greens could do any good in the 2016 election.

So including the 5 Spider-Man movies they’ve already made, we need 9-10 movies before we can have a non-white lead who, oh, by the way, aside from his race also has a more interesting backstory?

Miles Morales as the lead would’ve not only been a great move to show that Marvel is taking diversity seriously, but it also would’ve solved the “third Peter Parker in recent memory” problem. Peter Parker is a played-out character regardless of his race or ethnicity. So it’s both bad optics and bad creatively to keep…

Some towns that have remodeled their libraries in recent years have coffee shops in them. Best of both worlds.

On the other hand, the lives saved are probably residents of Philadelphia, so there’s your downside.

Since they have neglected to have a bullpen. Kind of a strange oversight for a team otherwise so well constructed.
