The kittens WANT *IT ALL!

*It = hoodie drawstring

A black kitten and tuxedo kitten play with the drawstring of my blue jays hoodie and the playoff rally towel that says “want it all”

They always start with free speech. It sounds reasonable, doesn’t it? Free speech? And they can use it to shut down anyone who criticises them, because it’s all “free speech”

After “free speech” it’s “protecting women and girls”

And then it’s whatever they actually wanted.

The right-wing campaign group that helped topple Roe v Wade in the US is now working to roll back abortion laws in the UK, with the help of Nigel Farage.

Its first step? Trying to create a debate around "free speech"

Good morning with good news: Fossil fuels will generate less than 50% of global electricity by 2028-2030!

Why?

Renewables surge from 32% in 2024 to 43% by 2030, while nuclear keeps at least its 2024 9% share.

RE plus nuclear hits ~52% by 2030!

Cal Raleigh has 9 home runs in 14 career games at Rogers Centre

That’s the most home runs of any player in his first 14 games there (reg+post)

It really does. I rewatched each ep before the next one when it aired. I want to just do a full marathon rewatch on a weekend to recover from playoffs when they’re over.

Smoltz referenced "adrenaline" being a reason the Mariners might win the game, there we go

Dave Church @davechurch.bsky.social · 1d

Possible post game 1 narratives for Mariners/Jays:

1) Seattle rides adrenaline of thrilling game 5 win to beat the Jays, Toronto feeling pressure for game 2
2) well-rested Jays beat tired Mariners, Seattle needs to respond

#BlueJays lose, 3-1, and drop Game 1 of the ALCS.

The lineup had just two hits, only one after George Springer’s leadoff homer.

I found a 19th century Cat Villain!

A huge chonk of a fluffy cat sitting on a table near an open fire. The cat is cream and grey and appears to be shaped like a barrel in a fur coat. They are scowling fiercely with their moustache and bewhiskered ears apparently flowing back into the cold wind. There's a definite vibe that this villainous cat twirls their moustache as they evict orphans into the aforementioned blizzard and think Scrooge was an easy-going lightweight. They are magnificent.

The Mariners threw only 100 pitches, the fewest by a team to win a postseason game since the Dodgers in Game 2 of the 2018 NLDS against the Braves

“We didn’t hit,” said Vlad Guerrero Jr.

He added: “It’s one game” and said Jays expect to bounce back.

If you ask me, the difference in the entire game was these two lineouts. Baseball just be like that.

Now let's get back to mashing taters.
