Attorney, inclined to Mets, Pitt, movies, and politics. A good diner recommendation is always welcome. Opinions are semi-frequent and just mine.

It is October 2028. The Seattle Mariners and Detroit Tigers are still playing the divisional round playoff game that began in 2025. The rest of the MLB decided to continue on without them and start a whole new league.

Discussing this in the group chat: Extra inning playoff baseball is a continually building pressure cooker, overtime playoff hockey is a 100mph obstacle course, both the best playoffs available

baseball is the best preparation for death because it does not come with a clock that tells you when your suffering will end one way or the other

My Congress person just called me (a constituent) to join a live call with reps from Covered California Health, to explain why our insurance is about to go up and why. They’re taking questions. This is very good. Lots of information.
