Reminder that if Hamas actually bombed a synagogue in Israel, it would lead the news for multiple days. Israel would demand (and receive) billions more dollars in US tax support in response. But it's just the IDF. Move on with your day

IDF Hannibal Brigade

Hamas violates the ceasefire and bombs a synagogue in the middle of Israel today. If you’re wondering why that didn’t make the news, it’s because it’s actually the IDF bombing yet another mosque in the center of Gaza City.

i don't believe anyone has "good-faith" concerns about trans women in sports in 2026. there's been too much time to hear the actual evidence, the actual people affected, and the role the debate plays in attempts to purge trans people from American life. anybody picking that side has made a choice

A beautiful and excellent conversation between Ta-Nehisi Coates and the Makdisi brothers on how Palestine remains the most glaring hole in American liberalism.

Eye tracking & training methods are becoming all the rage in sports, from top NBA refs to hockey goalies, IndyCar drivers and more. And the same tech may hold the key to IDing and treating some of humanity's most well-known medical conditions. Feature for ESPN: www.espn.com/casualgames/...

Got buried by LeBron on Friday - My feature on cutting-edge technology that's not just helping athletes and refs, but also showing a huge impact in IDing/treating major conditions like Alzheimer's, autism and more:

the thing about having actual principles is that when a politician I respect does some stupid shit I can just be like, “that sucks, knock it off” instead of inventing an imaginary world where I’m forced to defend stupid shit for procedural 4d chess reasons

Many left-wing writers are still on X. I think if you’d asked them five years ago if they’d stay if the owner was a white supremacist who advocated race war and the murder of people who opposed mass deportations they would have said no of course not, that’s crazy. And yet

The decision of so many people to keep using X in its race-war phase has made me a bit more cynical overall about the ability to draw moral red lines. It’s beyond disappointing.
