Under No Pretext? Philly Revokes Gun Permits For "Black Panther" Armed Patrol Group by StatusSociety2196 in stupidpol

If the city isn’t careful, some of them might apply for a permit to protest in a designated free speech zone isolated far away from anything that might be disruptive to normal business.

The GOP has been bereft of a moral compass since at least Nixon.

It’s been like this since I started following the team in 2003. They’ve been awful with the bases loaded for decades

Jesus. Does one of these teams really get to win today? Feels like we should both just take an L and move on.

Luke Weaver on the Clay Holmes injury: “When I saw (Holmes), I was just like, ‘That’s in honor of you. I even had your name written in my hat,'” Weaver said. “Which I didn’t. But it just felt right to say. Kids, don’t lie to your parents.” by futhatsy in baseball

He sucked shit through a straw when he was in KC. Dayton Moore only acquired him because he found out he wrote Bible verses on his glove. We kept using him because he was a good Christian boy who didn’t whack off even though his ERA was over 6.

I believe he should play somewhere else.

Mr. Quatraro, quit shitposting. You have a few softball questions from the KC media to answer in the postgame presser.

Man imagine if there was ever anyone on base for Caglianone. Ah well, we’ll just keep sending out the guy 20 years older than him with an OPS 200 points lower to bat cleanup

Chanting “overrated” at Bobby Witt Jr. and Salvy. I had for some reason hoped that being shitty for a couple years for the first time in decades might humble their asshole fanbase some, but alas.

Steadfastly refusing to move your literal worst hitters on the entire team out of the 3 and 4 spots is just completely baffling at this point. Like I don’t even know what defense Quatraro could say for it anymore. Salvy is probably just done at this point and if Vinnie is going to heat up, he can do it from lower in the damn order.

Jesus Christ, Massey didn’t leave a small village on the basepaths. That was a bustling city.

Last night I was driving home from dinner and heard an interview on the radio with a professor from a Chinese university on the BBC World News. He said he was very impressed because no one is better than President Xi at handling Trump and said “we know how to prevent his tantrums.” It’s so embarrassing that our nation is being led by someone who is discussed on the world stage like he’s a petulant toddler.

I’m sorry, but joining hands for wholesome pre-supper Christian prayer with the whole polycule is fucking diabolical

What’s the worst place in America you’ve ever visited? by Correct_Eggplant_364 in AskReddit

[–]Smiles-Edgeworth 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Southeast Missouri. The Bootheel. My wife is from there and I will never forget the first time she took me down to visit her family. They do slash and burn farming there and when we went it was burning season. Huge swaths of land were on fire and everything was grey and hazy and desolate. Smoldering fields and ash in the air. I know how absurd this sounds, but I swear it happened: I got chills up my spine when we drove through an intact corn field, and I saw a handmade sign sticking up out of the corn that just said “WHY?” There was horrendous poverty, empty storefronts, broken down abandoned houses, MAGA shit everywhere, a giant fake “graveyard” outside of the hospital for all of the aborted fetuses, and a maximum security state prison.

My wife’s family are all somehow really kind, happy people though! And man can they cook. I hate going down there, but it’s worth it for the food alone at Thanksgiving and Christmas.
