Commemorating May 1st
A late post, but yesterday was a good day to remember the horrors of communism.
The Tigers Game
No (or little) posting today because we went out to breakfast, then when we got back I discovered that the Tigers were playing the Dodgers today (about half an hour before game start).
Even though we were going to miss the first two or three innings, we decided to go, because how often does Detroit play LA, and we’re getting old?
The good news is that we didn’t miss much Detroit action in the early innings, because there was none. The bad news is that there was a lot of LA action early. The other good news is that we did get to see Detroit get two homers and a double to right field toward the end. The other bad news is that it wasn’t enough.
But it was good, anyway, because it was great baseball weather, and really Dodgers Stadium is one of the best parks in either league, in terms of the views from the upper deck. Panoramic from Griffith Park, to downtown, to the ocean (though it was a little too marine layery to see much to the west).

The need for Elon.
“…The likelihood of skewed priorities with the operational mindset within a company that displays this kind of lack of viewpoint diversity is stratospheric. When a GOP donor is harder to find on the payroll than a vegan cannibal, you have to expect that a uniform level of thinking would become entrenched. When every single person in the offices sits in the same bubble, those overseeing the enforcement of the terms of service will not question things when questionable decisions are made…”
