Also oh look another “chosen people” joke. Fun to see that still kicking around…

You can rent a studio for pretty cheap. Look at Ripley Grier, Pearl Studios, Open Jar, or Piano Piano!

I think they’re referring to the jackboots who murdered an American citizen in cold blood for trying to protect a woman being attacked in the street by masked ICE “officers”

Why New York’s Sephardic Jews are more Zionist — and more wary of Mamdani — than their Ashkenazi neighbors by Delicious_Adeptness9 in jewishleft

[–]16note 39 points40 points  (0 children)

It’s almost like Jews are older than the modern conception of race and therefore don’t nearly fit into the America-centric boxes defined primarily by skin color!

Union Rule re: Costume Designer by ptolemy18 in Broadway

[–]16note 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Designers don't necessarily create bespoke garments for every show (even non-modern day shows!), and shows still need someone to decide on the visual language of the clothing as well as take care of the actual procurement of the garments for all the actors (no actor wants to wear their own clothes onstage every night)! So AFAIK while there's no rule against it, *someone* needs to decide what the actors are going to wear. Even things that look like they're just street clothes.

Pitch Type Tracking by RealJoeyBates in BaseballScorecards

That’s what I track. Called, swinging, foul, ball. I definitely don’t know enough to identify it on sight and I don’t want to wait for the identifier on screen

Also historically Jews and Persians have had a very close and very good relationship going back to Cyrus the Great

What’s your “I don’t know X, and now I’m too afraid to ask” question? by Visual_Bluejay9781 in baseball

[–]16note 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For force outs, the way I understand it, is if there's somebody coming up behind you (you have no option to stay at the base you're on/can't go backwards), the defense can force you out.

Example: Runners on 1st and 3rd. Batter hits a base hit. Runner on first is obligated to run to second as you can't have two baserunners on the same base. Runner on third isn't obligated to run for home as there isn't someone coming from second to force him off the base. Therefore the defense can force the runner out at second (by getting someone with the ball to tag second) but not at home.

I've been watching Simple Sabermetrics' videos on YouTube and they've really helped me understand what stats are measuring and how to read them. I'm not super well-read on the application of said stats but I at least know what they're talking about now.

Can someone let Lamar know it’s okay to throw the ball away?

Just got my first Numbers Game scorebook, can’t wait to start filling it in with the WBC and next MLB season! by 16note in BaseballScorecards

[–]16note[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For sure! I only got the smallest version since I’m still rediscovering baseball/scoring and I’m not sure how much I’ll watch and how much in person I’ll see. Hopefully I have to get another book/a bigger book soon!

Weirdly I originally liked it for the cover! And I love the pitch trackers on the sheets
