‘That was PERSONAL’: School switches balloon drop for beach ball drop at graduation, and nearly wipes out the next generation in one go
Let’s get sober for a moment here; the generations that inhabit the “growing up” portions of the human race right now have a pretty rough shake of things ahead. Rent continues to go to the moon while wages stay at terrestrial levels, you have to pay a premium for nutritious groceries these days, and at this rate, it seems like a matter of time before the winners of the working class are decided by the daily King Of The Hill matches that take place on the charter bus bound for one of the millions of Amazon factories, each of which can only afford to pay so many workers each day.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Shohei Ohtani is baseball’s fastest 40-40 man. The Japanese superstar blasted a two-out grand slam in the ninth inning for his 40th homer after earlier stealing his 40th base, lifting the Los Angeles Dodgers to a 7-3 win over the Tampa Bay Rays on Friday night. Ohtani achieved the feat in his 126th game and the team’s 129th, the quickest in major league history and sixth ever to reach 40 homers and 40 stolen bases in a season. He’s also the first Dodgers player to do so. “It’s really more about the winning,” Ohtani said through an interpreter. “Obviously the record is part of the process but I think the most important thing is about winning the game.”

Florida is much safer than Washington D.C.
Dear Mr. Osgood: The only logical way to look at murder rates is homicides per capita. Cherrypicking a total deaths number without reference to the number of residents in a state is foolish at best and disingenuous at worst. Florida was ranked 27th in the United States with 5.0 deaths...
