The Catch was a baseball play made by New York Giants center fielder Willie Mays on September 29, 1954, during Game 1 of the 1954 World Series at the Polo Grounds in Upper Manhattan, New York City. During the eighth inning with the score tied 2–2, Cleveland Indians batter Vic Wertz hit a deep fly ball to center field that had the runners on base poised to score. However, Mays made an over-the-shoulder catch while on the run to record the out, and his throw back to the infield prevented the runners from advancing. The Giants won the game 5–2 in extra innings, and eventually the World Series. The Catch is regarded as one of the greatest plays in baseball history.
So apparently, the Georgia trial is currently set for this October because one of the defendants requested a speedy trial. What are the chances the trial actually happens and Trump is convicted?
You see, the really funny thing about this is that Fani Willis originally proposed a trial date of March 2024, which would be between Trump's J6 trial (January) and his Mar-a-Lago case (May, assuming we can't get Judge Cannon out of there). Then one of the co-defendants filed a demand for a speedy trial because he thought it would throw her off balance, not give her enough time to respond, prove she wasn't really ready to go to trial, etc....
So Fani Willis and Co. immediately, like IMMEDIATELY fired back like "okay, how does October sound? BY THE WAY, THAT IS THIS OCTOBER, AS IN 2 MONTHS FROM NOW, NOT NEXT YEAR. AND WE ARE FINE WITH TRYING ALL 19 OF YOU FELONS, INCLUDING TRUMP, AT THAT TIME."
(The judge also apparently agreed and was like "sure, this dude can have a November trial if he wants." Currently as yet, that doesn't apply to the other 18 defendants, but this is going to cue a flurry of panicked filings to get their cases considered separately and also ups the odds that one of these obviously totally trustworthy and not at all self interested people will turn on the rest of them and cut a deal. To which I say, HAHAAHHA, EAT EACH OTHER ALIVE, FUCKERS.)
Guys. Listen. The new willy wonka not only has all the gender i’ve ever wanted, but is an INCREDIBLE candidate for g/t. On either side of the spectrum, too!
He’s a curious, semi clueless, and BOUNDARY-RESPECTING giant
And he’s a curious, semi clueless, excited and silly tiny!!!!
My apologies for the relative lack of share-worthy art lately. Hopefully you will appreciate some living art?
This fabulous large man has been with me for all of 4 days and I love him to death. Please don’t break my heart big guy!
He’s a giant plakat betta with koi/marble/multicolored genetics of some sort. I know these are a huge risk for many reasons, but I found him in my neighborhood, and it turns out I’m a fool after all. I’m looking forward to all the color changing shenanigans. In the meantime, he watches me cook and do dishes.
Please excuse the state of this tank. It’s been through some hard times.
