I've decided I'd like to use my personal account here to talk more about all things related to Pokémon tournaments. I enjoy it a lot, I think things can be learned from all parties reading, and I'm in a unique position to contribute to discussions and change.

Trump can lie. The indictment even says so: "3. The Defendant had a right, like every American, to speak publicly about the election and even to claim, falsely, that there had been outcome-determinative fraud during the election and that he had won."

The downside of "universal auth" using Web3 as it exists today is if you lose control of your wallet, you compromise access to EVERYTHING.
People can and will have multiple wallets. Passwords to wallets and seed phrases will be leaked. It will be ugly.

Pete Buttigieg has been doing one endurance activity after another over the past 8 days:
✅ Completed an Ironman 70.3
✅ Testified before Congress for 6 hours
✅ Did Sunday interviews on ABC, CNN, & NBC and local news in Wisconsin
And parenting 2-year-old twins.

There is no good reason for the vehicle to be this shape. Trains are long and thin for reasons.
If you can make a center rail that is 5 feet wide to accommodate this monstrosity, you can elevate it and make it 10 feet wide for a normal train.

This fellow is so misguided! You don’t coat your hands in soap and then attempt to wash it off with water. That’s not how soaps work.
You wet your hands then add a little bit of soap. Dirt binds to soap. Water alone works but a bit of soap works more.

Smart contracts (code) which can’t be readily corrected if needed is a bad idea.
I saw someone make the case that contract code will be the most secure ever because companies will put enough resources on it before deploying.
Yeah, the world doesn’t always work that way.

Said another way, there were 800 TCG MA spots available, and it took 11 full minutes for 800 players to try.
This is a good thing. It means if you were on time and wanted a spot, you could have had one.
