The New York Mets on Saturday agreed to trade pitcher Max Scherzer, who has a no-trade clause, to the Texas Rangers, pending Scherzer's approval, a source told ESPN's Jeff Passan, confirming multiple reports.

Theoretically he should be able to do this. The problem might be landing since he's not invulnerable or super strong. But then again, we're talking comic book logic. The speeds at which he travels should have already ripped him apart if he doesn't have some sort of protection.
I'm not a Flash expert by any means. Does the Speed Force protect him? I know in the Young Justice cartoon Wally wore pads with his costume because he didn't have as good control as Barry, so I'm guessing it doesn't fully protect him.
I tried to watch Downton Abbey with my wife. I can appreciate the acting, costumes, and sets, but I could really not have cared less about the minutiae of the lives of 1910s British upper class and their servants
Buttery males
Just finished the latest season of Invincible. Overall I enjoy it, even is sometimes the animation is meh. This season really did a good job of showing the tension between taking a principled moral stand vs practical realities. Sometimes you can be a good person, or you can save the world, but you can't always have both
Love The Expanse. If you haven't tried them, I highly recommend the audiobooks. The narrator is fantastic and obviously there's so much more detail
From the article:
Brian Cullen, an attorney for the school district, said Monday he was pleased with what he called a well-reasoned ruling that affirms that school districts can and should protect students from harassment from adults on school grounds. And he noted that the ruling doesn’t prevent the plaintiffs from expressing their views in other ways.
“It simply prevents them from bringing their protest to the sidelines of a game being played by kids. That should not be a controversial limitation,” he said.
Yes, private organizations can set their own rules. That doesn't change the basis of this ruling.
If a private club league had their own rules that said (among other things) "We do not tolerate promoting views that exclude on the basis of sexual identity during league events," then the league would be within its rights to remove anyone violating that rule. Absent that, free speech applies. Especially for wearing something as vague as a pink bracelet.
Re: your example, there are many organizations that exclude on the basis of religion and sexual orientation. The Boy Scouts, for example, still require that members sign a Declaration of Religious Principle saying that they believe in some sort of higher power. This excludes atheists and agnostics. They also used to exclude homosexuals. The Supreme Court ruled in their favor back in the late 90s or early 00s that as a private organization they had the right to exclude whoever they wanted. They changed their stance on homosexuality voluntarily, but the SC ruling still applies. It is public institutions that cannot exclude, not private.
As far as this ruling goes, it's not about the message it's about the target and the fact that it was at a school function.
Don't misunderstand, people. The key here isn't that it's hate speech. All kinds of unpopular views are protected by the First Amendment. This is why you can still see Trump supporters waving Nazi flags in parades. If it was just because it was deemed hate speech, well then we should all be worried because Trump's government is now saying that anyone who preaches hate against America is subject to deportation.
The key is that it happened at a school event. The FA doesn't apply to non-students at school events if students are the target of speech meant to harass or demean. If this had happened at a club soccer game as opposed to a school event they would have been protected.
The real answer will be that the Bible doesn't mention aliens, or that people's reported encounters with aliens are actually demons
Keefe spotting Kelvin on the bench press
He didn't say "the dog," he said "the bitch," and he didn't say "father," he said "daddy." OP needs to beware the kinky homewrecker who runs the shelter
It lacked a message unlike TWS. It blew the big reveal (Red Hulk) in the promos so it lacked punch. The partnership with Joaquin isn't as earned or compelling as the ones with Steve/Bucky or Steve/Sam. The big villain was taken down relatively easily for being one of the smartest people on the planet. It felt like it was just trying to tie loose ends from other movies but had the loosest of threads connecting it to the big multiverse buildup happening in all the other big tentpole MCU movies. It also missed a huge opportunity to follow up on how the real Rhodey is doing.
That said, I still thought it was OK. It was still visually a blast, introduced some fun villains for the future, and a wild card in Red Hulk. Lower middle tier for the MCU. There has certainly been worse.
Love that we are getting actual art instead of another cluster of heads looking off in different directions
Agents of SHIELD. Full of camp but also full of heart. It also had some pretty great fight choreography at times. Its canonicity with the MCU is currently up in the air but still very much worth a watch IMO
How about two with Rosa Salazar?
Undone on Amazon Prime, a trippy psychological show about a girl (Salazar) exploring the link to her present and her dead father (Bob Odenkirk). It's rotoscoped to add to the trippiness
Brand New Cherry Flavor on Netflix, where an aspiring writer gets her career ruined by a director when she turns down his sexual advances. She makes a deal with a witch to get revenge
Motherfucker...
Stranger Things should not be that high

I say this as an American. Good. Never capitulate to bullies, it just encourages them

Strange Darling spoiler discussion
Not sure how to spoiler tag so if I need to do that please let me know how.
I really liked this movie. I didn't know much about it going in and highly recommend it that way for anyone else. However for anyone reading this that hasn't seen it (apparently you don't care about spoilers), know that this is graphically violent thriller, and there's a pretty intense scene that could be a sexual assault trigger for some.
Right off the bat when they started us off in Chapter 3, I knew that things were not as they seemed. I think most people will be able to guess fairly early on that the "victim" is actually the hunter and the "hunter" is actually the victim here simply because the nonsequential storytelling is a tipoff. In less capable hands, this would be a gimmick that cheapens the movie. But it was executed so well I don't even mind that I could see the twist coming.
The director, JT Mollner, wanted this to be a movie that was primarily felt, and he succeeded. I was viscerally uncomfo
