I think the Valks are gonna close it out today if only bc that would lead to maximum clusterfuck and thus most fitting send-off for Cathy Engelbert
hard to ignore the copious evidence that cathy englebert's final season as commish saw the W running as a ghost ship floating on existing momentum with seemingly zero direction from the top.
Kerith Burke@kerithburke.bsky.social · 16h agoVia an email from the WNBA…let’s say a physical game with lots of FTs goes 2.5 hours. A 12:30 ET tip-off takes us to 3pm. If media have to leave by 4pm, that’s likely the time teams are asked to vacate the locker rooms, training spaces, and side spaces too for the NBA game at 8pm. Tight 😬
I am very curious to see the first batch of post-redistricting enrollment numbers
Ryan Reyna@ryanreyna.bsky.social · 3h agoEnrollment dashboard will be up by next Friday. We are discussing numbers at our Strategy & Accountability meeting at 10a on 6th (which is on zoom). Full Board presentation on Dec 3 bc of VSBA conference and holidays.

Malcolm Gladwell is out telling everyone who will listen that American police departments are "tiny," half the size of European departments. Just one problem. He got his numbers wrong.

A weird baseball thing is they will show you a guy who is clearly in his mid 40s and then a guy who is obviously 15 and then actually, no, both of these men are 23.

Trump can say "don't seat Democrats" as much as he wants. The new House isn't seated by the old House. The old one ends at noon on 1/3/27, and the next one starts. The first thing the majority party does is elect a Speaker. The old Speaker has literally no role to play.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · yesterdayRAJU: So if Trump says 'Don't seat Democrats,' you'll resist him? MIKE JOHNSON: I'll do my job as Speaker. The president has vowed of course that he wants to follow the law as well.

Abandon any fantasies about an affirmative legislative agenda. None of that is happening. You get to throw a wrench in the gears of a fascist meat-grinder. That’s it. Pretending you can do anything else is just turning the crank on the grinder.
You don’t get to accomplish anything good in the next two years. You need to be clear-eyed about that up front. It’s not on the table, and harboring the delusion that it is will only do harm. All you get to do until 2028 is block evil. That needs to be your singular goal.
No. Your attitude has to be that absolutely nothing will get done. If you’re trying to “pass common-sense legislation to help the American people”in this environment you’re a fucking traitor.
Acyn@acyn.bsky.social · 2d agoKamala Harris: I think that going in the direction of impeachment is not a good idea. I was in the Senate for the last go-round, and the votes aren’t there. I think after the election, we all have to just also agree that our attitude has to be to get stuff done…

Police Chief Tarrick McGuire told City Council he notified the vendor Tuesday night. Council takes up rules for any future surveillance technology Nov. 10, and the vice mayor said that is not a vendor switch.

People don't want to hear it but at best IF Dems win the House they will only be able to pass messaging bills and conduct some oversight hearings. So why NOT impeach people like Hegseth and Trump? So what if they aren't convicted by the Senate! Do the messaging bills AND IMPEACH.

Thursday is a paid holiday. Because Flavor Flav said so.
before the election, doing dogpile coverage on Trump's heavily documented and extremely plausible rape allegations would be Political and therefore improper. after the election it's time to turn the page, let bygones be bygones, look forward not backward, bsky.app/profile/hoff...

That’s a pretty clear foul. Shame Karl doesn’t have a challenge.
On the pod, Jackie and Howard asked me what the key was for the Dream to keep the momentum up after Game 3. I said “pushing the pace, above all else.” And, well #WNBA
Jackie Powell@classicjpow.bsky.social · 5d agoLooking for a preview of #WNBA Finals game 4 before the action starts at 1pm? @howardmegdal.bsky.social and I spoke to @michaelwaterloo.bsky.social to understand how the Dream got out to such a commanding lead. Also, what's been going on with the Golden State Valkyries? We dive into it all here:
Dream have got to find a way to speed this game up. Even if they can’t get into transition, they are not gonna do themselves any favors with these possessions going all the way to the end of the shot clock. The first look you get against the Valkyries is probably gonna be the best one.
