The best thing the Minnesota Twins did this season was to trade Louis Varland to the Blue Jays, as he had a big role in dragging the Yankees down to hell this post season.

You know what's fun and makes music? Whistling. AI bros can't whistle

SuperChill @frozzbot.bsky.social · 3d

Couldn't believe my ears when that music AI guy said nobody actually enjoys making music. That ranks as one of the stupidest things I've ever heard. Anybody who knows how to make music enjoys making music. Why would they have ever learned to do it if it didn't bring them joy?

Love this for you ❤️

I once was working the room at an LGBT event in the early 00s for a candidate who jokes to the crowd, "I dress so well I could be gay!" The room fell dead quiet, and as the pol tried to talk themselves out of it, one of my coworkers muttered to me, "you got this, I'm gonna go play on traffic."

As someone who used to work the electoral side of the street, the parts of In the Loop and The Thick of It where the pols go off-script are the ones that make me feel like I'm about to break out in hives

I had my worst mental health day in a year+ on Tuesday, and it's remarkable how compared to 10 years ago they a) are so much less frequent, and b) they are so much less bad
