Next Draft - Big D Energy
The headline for this SF Giants fan should be that it's finally next season. But even watching a dreaded matchup between the Dodgers and Yankees provided a much-needed respite from election related stress. So I'm sorry to see the World Series end. But not as sorry as Yankees fans who saw their team on the verge of sending the series back to Chavez Ravine until a disastrous three mistake five run fifth inning in which they blew a 5-0 lead. Is there a silver lining to a Dodgers championship? Well, maybe. It's worth noting that the last time the Dodgers clinched a World Series was during the pandemic. Trump lost the election a week later. This gives new meaning to a blue wave. 2Uhaul PassIt's a lot easier to hate other people when you only have to interact with their caricatures. That's why our physical segregation is so brutal. And it's only getting worse. NYT Upshot(Gift Article) with some stats that could move one to tears: Millions of Movers Reveal American Polarization in Action. "These estimates, based on a New York Times analysis of detailed public voter registration records of more than 3.5 million Americans who moved since the last presidential election, offer a new and extraordinarily detailed glimpse into one of the ways that we segregate from each other — down to the street level." 3Drive Me Crazy"Guns. Knives. Bats. Hammers. Hatchets. Spears." That's a pretty hardcore intro to an article about road rage. WaPo looks at the rage behind the rage. As incidents of road rage escalate across the country, aggressive drivers in Texas try to understand what triggers anger. 4Don't Sweat It"If you suddenly feel as if you’re being inundated with ads for something called 'whole body deodorant,' you’re not alone. The personal care product, which is being advertised as a solution to sweat and body odor that can’t be controlled by traditional underarm deodorants, has exploded in popularity in 2024." Jessica Roy in the NYT (Gift Article) with "the answer to a problem people didn’t even know they have." Wait, Does Your Whole Body Need Deodorant? (Oddly, I have zero body odor even in places where I'm supposed to. The key is almost never moving.) 5Extra, ExtraJudicial Overhauling: "Eight justices of Mexico’s Supreme Court have said they will leave the court rather than stand for election as required by a controversial judicial overhaul passed last month." 8 of 11 members of Mexico’s Supreme Court to resign in protest of controversial judicial overhaul. 6Bottom of the NewsA candy engineer explains the science behind the Snickers bar.
