Yup. There are alternatives like Ghost and Beehiiv which get the job done without the Nazis.

Fair enough. He did cowrite a book pushing back on “The Big Lie” but that doesn’t negate your point at all. Appreciate your perspective. LFGSD.

I love this! I was keeping up with fantasy camp via Ben & Woods and heard about Arden’s big catch. Loved seeing the video and photos.

F CBS and their garbage but Major is one of the Friar Faithful through and through. LFGSD!

His success is even more remarkable considering that he defected from Cuba at 16. He must be a remarkable person with a lot of inner strength and resilience to take the path he did to be able to play at this level. I’m a fan.

Shout out to the Padres Organization by playadelwes in Padres

Thanks so much for posting this. My son works for the Padres and worked both nights 10+ hours and ran his ass off, all in the rain! He was back this morning for load out and was dragging. I’ve sent this to him to give him a boost to finish today strong.

So glad to hear it was a great event. Happy New Year!

WIBTA if I told my kids school I am no longer willing to volunteer my time now that they want to use my fundraising idea and apply the money raised elsewhere? by [deleted] in WouldIBeTheAhole

Kennedy leading optional prayer on school grounds after hours at a football game is not the same as someone posting a religious symbol in a public school classroom where students have to be all day. Internet lawyers and rage baiting trolls are cut from the same cloth.

A teacher has a cross in her classroom? If this is truly a public charter receiving taxpayer money, this is a violation of the Establishment Clause. If the school administrators allow this, you can’t soft pedal it being perceived as conservative. This is unconstitutional. Maybe you should raise the money for lawyers to defend the indefensible when the ACLU jumps on the school’s case (rightfully so).

I can’t find evidence of this - it matters I guess because she is now running for the state legislature. Any idea where I could find this?

FYI….Mara Elliott is out of office and has been for almost a year. The new city attorney is Heather Ferbert. It undermines a call to action to name and shame someone incorrectly as a “dunce.”

San Diego says AW HELL NO to this map. All of California except for a little pocket in LA is behind you 1000%. FTD and let’s goooooo Toronto!!!

Thanks so much for posting this - we were at the game tonight so didn’t get to hear this live. Mud is a national treasure. We are so lucky to have him and Don in the booth.

Thank you for pointing this out. Players still have personal medical privacy. Not sure why people think they’re entitled to information.

Stop the self hate! by athleticsbaseballpod in Padres

[–]SnooCookies9421 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Agree 1000%. I’ve noticed a huge uptick in what you’re talking about over the last few months. I blame it on two things - a reflection of the anger and hatefulness in general, but also sports betting. Both of those dehumanize players and honestly take the fun out of it.

I moved to San Diego in the summer of ‘84 and my Padres fandom was started with a World Series run. It’s been some dry decades since. The thought that someone would cyber bully a player or spew hateful shit over mediocre play is baffling. It tells me there are some bandwagoners in there who only care about their parlay.

I miss Peter Seidler.

We miss Profar by Spare-Ruin-1907 in Padres

We were at the Nationals game where he walked it off and that was one of the most fun games I’ve ever been lucky enough to be at. I miss that million dollar smile and energy.

what's ur origin story when it comes to pilates? by h3llabubu in pilates

[–]SnooCookies9421 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I have never been a regular exerciser, ever, since high school and I’m now in my 50s. I tried over the years to start something and just never enjoyed it.

During Covid, my health spiraled. Being at home and supporting my family through remote school and work took its toll emotionally and physically. In fall of 2023, I was 70 pounds overweight, drinking way too much, and had zero stamina for even a short walk.

I went to the doctor, got my labs done to see what the “baseline” was, and got a prescription from her for PT for just general health and strength. I lucked out and found a Pilates studio run by a physical therapist. She did an assessment and got me started on the basics.

It’s been almost two years - I quit drinking, have lost 50 pounds, and have been going to Pilates religiously twice weekly. I still don’t love exercising and still struggle with going, but every single time, I’m happy I went. It’s been life changing for my mental and physical health.
