Today is the only day of the year you can watch an MLB, NFL, NHL, NBA and WNBA game at the same time

Looks like this is going to be a week of Apple press releases, starting today with the new OLED iPad Mini
- 8.5" OLED display
- A20 Pro chip
- "Acoustic display" instead of speaker grilles
- IP67 rating
- N1 and C2 chips
- Starting at $699 (+$200 from last gen)
My take: WAY better screen, WAY better chip, so a very welcome refresh. Very curious to try this audio system. but also I can't find any mention of 120Hz or ProMotion on the website, so.... 60Hz?

NEW: MAGA voters say they're going to the polls to fight “communism”—but when asked what communism actually means, things get awkward FAST.
In The Daily Show's upcoming special “Red Flags,” Jordan Klepper puts Republican voters on the spot with one simple question. Their answers are something else.
These two minutes are worth watching. See for yourself!

One reason many Evangelicals easily separate the President’s character from his policies is they’ve long been conditioned to separate character from belief.
For too many, how you live matters less than whether you believe the “right” things.
A destructive form of Christianity.

McDonald's uses 3 different eggs. Only 1 of them is cracked in the restaurant.
The Egg McMuffin gets a Grade A egg cracked into a ring on the grill. The Big Breakfast scramble is poured from a carton of eggs and citric acid. The folded egg on the biscuits and McGriddles is eggs, nonfat milk, modified food starch, salt and citric acid. A supplier cooks it, folds it and flash freezes it. The store warms it on the grill.
Citric acid keeps a cooked egg from going gray on a hot hold, and the starch holds water in a patty that's been frozen and thawed so it doesn't weep on the biscuit. The milk adds volume and softens the bite.
McDonald’s purchases over 2 billion eggs in the US and Canada a year.

Osi Umenyiora reveals how the Giants exposed “the greatest quarterback ever, supposedly,” Tom Brady, by decoding his snap count before Super Bowl XLII
Umenyiora says he noticed Brady pointing at a specific defender before signaling the center to snap the ball. After studying game footage for a week, he became convinced the pattern was consistent and shared his discovery with the entire Giants defense. That preparation gave New York’s defensive line a crucial advantage, helping them sack Brady five times and hit him around 20 times in the upset victory over the previously undefeated Patriots. Umenyiora says the Giants entered the game believing they could win because they had uncovered something their opponents did not know they had figured out.

When this election is over in 9 days we need to have a serious convo about how SuperPACs target Black voters with misinformation and why some folks easily fall for it.

🚨 TEXAS VOTING NUMBERS DON’T MATCH.
Bexar County reported nearly 18,000 mail ballots. The state showed EIGHT. Fort Bend reported 75,000+ in-person votes. The state showed barely 41,000.
Officials cite problems with the state’s election system.

BREAKING: Brazil’s President Lula da Silva wins reelection, defeating Trump ally Flávio Bolsonaro
Rob Monroe retweeted
This is a coup attempt. They’re turning off traffic lights and canceling bus routes and flights and ferries on election day. The world needs to be paying attention
Rob Monroe retweeted
Y’all. We are literally witnessing a coup attempt going on live in Brazil. Bolsonaro is losing the election badly, so his people in state and local leadership are grounding flights, canceling public transportation going to Lula strongholds. Massive voter suppression. Supreme Court had to intervene to mandate 2hrs extra at the polls. Mixed reports on how many polling stations are respecting the ruling. Whew!

NEW: An order of New York nuns founded in 1817 has rebuked the bishops who laid hands on President Trump 12 days before the midterms.
“Images carry messages,” the Sisters of Charity wrote. “Silence carries messages, too.”
The nuns have a powerful ally in Pope Leo XIV, who has put women at the center of his leadership. They now run three Vatican dicasteries, a larger share than in Trump’s cabinet. thelettersfromleo.com/p/new-…
