nice little dive into something i've thought for a while: there doesn't seem to be much correlation between the astros system ranking, prospects on the top 100 lists, and actual performance from the ones who make it to mlb

A fun email created on a sleepless night turned into an article, thanks to @mhatter106.bsky.social and @launchanglehou.bsky.social. I'm no @orangefire.bsky.social as a writer but appreciate any feedback on the thoughts... 😀 launch-angle.com/2026/08/04/d...

“imagine a drone that could move at any degree necessary” [thinking about every drone i’ve ever seen] ok yeah i’m picturing it

Robert Downen@robertdownen.bsky.social · yesterday

Terrence Howard, of "Crash," not believing in the mathematical concept of zero and insisting that 1 x 1 = 2 fame, is apparently eyeing the University of Texas-RGV for his new "omnidirectional flight" company. “Imagine a drone that could move at any degree necessary,” his nephew said.

Maddow asked #JamesTalarico about attacks on #trans people and those who think that to win, Dems must "moderate" on trans rights. Talarico answered, "I don't believe we win by selling people out." #Texas

i don't feel much of anything about trading for varsho or trading away arrighetti but i nevertheless give dana brown a deadline grade of a+ for not doing anything ruinous to the future of the system

astros traded for the wrong toronto bat on an expiring contract imo

people on here will post anything. “the astros have won more games than they’ve lost. they’re in first place.” no they aren’t. that can’t possibly be true.

this dog sounds rad as hell

Sometimes when doing genealogy research you stumble upon stuff that leaves you speechless.

i didn't realize that this is the last year of springer's contract – we must bring our sweet george home to jim crane's rescue ranch for elder astros so he can spend his last days leisurely roaming left field and contributing league average offense

it’s actually good that things like eggs and lettuce can fuck you up now, we had gotten too complacent. they have truly made america healthy, again

it's called ebenezer, lemon. a neo-dickensian thriller starring johnny depp as a slightly younger scrooge with lots of bracelets who fights his way up through the london crime underworld

Brian Grubb@briancgrubb.bsky.social · 2w ago

"a scrooge prequel starring johnny depp" sounds like a movie jack donaghy would try to get jenna maroney to co-star in

we should at least get to see lalas get savagely roasted for a half hour straight to make up for this shit

incredible that we make it to the round of 16 and instantly revert to the same team we always are

people on here will post anything. “the definition of a true fan: you’d rather see your team lose fairly than win unfairly” no it isn’t. that isn’t true.

everyone who is correctly defending the balogun decision is getting a real solid introduction to being an astros fan right now, welcome, embrace it and know joy

Barry Glendenning@barryglendenning.bsky.social · last mo.

As huge and unpopular a call as it would be, the USA should leave Folarin Balogun on the bench for the entire Belgium game to avoid being tainted by any sort of association with Trump and Fifa's chicanery and machiavellianism.

school told the conference that we’ll be handling this one internally

Amanda Mull@amandamull.bsky.social · last mo.

Something I love about college football is that it’s the college football fans on my TL who are assuming Balogun’s gonna play

took 250 years but at last we have conceived of naked corruption that works for the people
