Truly the most versatile knit

Decided to do a little search of 2nd half splits. I don't necessarily believe that all guys who were good in the 2nd half last year will just continue their great hitting into the 1st half of 2024. Some guys may just be 2nd half hitters. Some guys might've just had a hot, say, August, and it's making their 2nd half look better than it was. Other guys might just had a good 2nd half, and that's all it was.

December 28th marks the 50th Anniversary of the Endangered Species Act (ESA), widely regarded as America’s most potent and effective environmental law. The Act has saved hundreds of species from extinction, and is overwhelmingly popular with the American voters.

Preventing extinction, it turns out, is a bedrock American value. More

This time between Christmas and New Year's Eve is, in my mind anyway, not a time to be particularly productive but rather a good time to piddle about. New Year's Eve will be spent taking down the tree--it's been some while since we felt like staying up till midnight, much less going out.
So, aside from ...

Couple's feet under a blanket

I came out as autistic during the pandemic. Being isolated for so long finally revealed that I had been “masking,” or performing social behaviours that are considered neurotypical, my entire life. And the less I masked, the happier I became.
