From the article: There appear to be at least three forms of this public political/governmental sociopathy present today. The first are those individuals for whom sociopathic tendencies are deep-seated and a core feature of who they are – the former president being a prime example. A second form includes the scores of Republicans and right-wingers who have decided to play the role or act sociopathic for their own personal gain. This includes hard-line MAGA members such as Marjorie Taylor Greene, Lauren Boebert, Kari Lake and Matt Gaetz, who decided to infect themselves with contagious sociopathy. The third group with contagious sociopathy are the passive enablers of widespread acts of manipulation and cruelty ranging from long-serving, establishment leaders like Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) all the way to the throngs of people clad in Confederate flags and MAGA idolatry whose inaction and permissiveness serves as a large-scale petri dish by which contagious sociopathy can flourish. It cannot go without mentioning that the processes of cultism are at play here as well.

I was sitting in left field that afternoon. Forgot completely about the line drive aspect. Ground ball makes a better story

Sean Casey (the only player I've seen get thrown out on a grounder to deep left) has been named Yankees hitting coach for the remainder of the season.

PV really needs to reread some of Trump's social media posts to determine his level of sanity Fo us

Just another reason why the tiny piglet should be ignored.

Tell me again how out of touch Biden is... As an aside if this was a woman Chief Executive she would be branded a heartless bitch..

Posting it here rather than starting a new thread

Could this be the downfall of Pat Fitzgerald?

I was in a couple of APBA draft leagues for about 20 years. At least the cards don't talk back. Most of the time

Which is why I've always loved this Danny Murtaugh quote Spending half your life playing Strat or APBA (or OOTP) doesn't make you a big league GM

I’m not sure what connection Price has to Chris Illitch, but I think his dad basically promised him a job for as long as he wanted it. Besides, who really wants to be the guy that fired Jim Price

Trump could hijack the Constitution and the MAGAs would blame it on Hunter Biden

I only go to Dairy Queen for Dilly Bars. It's a 60 plus year old habit

He says food for everyone, then stiffs them. Just like his contractors in his building days

A lot of construction sites evidently in the inner city. Blowing up old buildings to build new ones

Is it bazaar that I’m remembering Public Service Announcements here in the US during the 60s about munitions in fields admonishing kids not to touch bombs. I’m assuming around old NIKE sites Some great PSA’s from Willie Mays. Don’t touch them

Right now Threads seems like everyone is throwing things on the wall to see what sticks. I'm hopeful that there will eventually be an option of just seeing people or topics you follow. I'm not crazy about the current hodgepodge but it's only day two. Let's see how things shake out once the shiny new toy feeling wears off.

Quick update; I checked the app and it showed that I had paid (2.85) for about 2 1/2 hours. Went to the office in Williamsburg to pay the fine. I told them I was a bit confused and showed them the receipt on the app. Turns out I had put in the license plate wrong, I was in a bit of hurry and mistyped it I guess. They waived the fee since it was apparent i've already paid. The only cost I had was the round trip time and gas.

New peeve. I received a notice of a parking ticket for a local municipal garage that requires a parking app. I'm sure I used the app on the day in question, but since I was in a bit of hurry, and there was a poor Wi-Fi connection it's possible it didn't go thru. I was in the garage for about 2 hours. The city sends me a notice asking to pay, however when the website to do so is not friendly to mobile devises (phone, iPad, etc). When we tried on the laptop the site is not registering username, email, etc, or allowing us to create a new account. This means I need to drive to city hall, write a check for $2 (plus whatever fees they decide to tack on). Not a huge deal, just a headache
