Y'all know I love the D-Backs. Los Serpientes for life.

But the Mariners, man. They were my dudes before AZ had a team. I was their bat boy once at Spring Training.

So what I'm saying is, let's do it, boys.

Wanting the Mariners to win it all is the only morally defensible position.

I enjoy watching movies taped off of 80s and 90s television, complete with original commercial breaks, more than I like watching them in pristine uncut condition. I readily acknowledge that this is my brain being wired completely differently from the Average Person. Nevertheless, ENDORPHINS.

You'd think that lettering is a straightfoward design process -- copy text, draw a balloon, draw a tail, bam -- but depending on the language, culture, creative production, publishing industry, and readership habits, the design language evolves differently and readers adapt to that.

I love when I'm shuffling every NES soundtrack ever made and suddenly IT'S ABSOLUTELY PERFECT.

I love how casual it is, like a productive business meeting.

I'm doing that thing where I carefully watch NYCC announcements on the off chance something I'm working on in secret is actually announced.

(I jest, but I AM finally watching CR with this season because of Brennan, and the first episode was very long but very good.)

I can't imagine it's as good as Dimension 20 On A Bus, but I'm intrigued nonetheless.

It feels like the kind of thing he intentionally committed to memory at some point. It DOES have an acronym he was probably mentally working through for reference. (OZPINHEAD)

Brennan reciting the full name of Oscar Diggs from memory on this week's Adventuring Party briefly stopped my heart.

I understand and respect you.

It is several people's fault. XD

I already had NYCC FOMO before, but now I'm seeing people recommend places to eat and suddenly THAT'S what has really pushed me over the edge of wanting. "Aw man, that places DOES sound good!"

I might need to eat dinner.
