The best part about getting a new fridge in 2025 is that it costs a ton more thanks to all the tariffs! 😁 😁 😁 😁 😁

If you hate the Pope because he is too “liberal”, I have some very bad news for you about Jesus.

I know the Guardians weren't supposed to be here -- but, man, this stings a little bit.

Would it kill the ESPN announcers to be a bit more partial on who they want to win this game…?! Signed, a Guards fan.

That's our bag o' tricks, hahah!

Somehow - the Guardians clinched a postseason birth tonight! A walk-off hit by pitch, no less. Wild!

A shot of the ballpark before the game started.

The Guardians celebrating after winning. Fireworks in background. Clinched on the scoreboard.

Baseball is stressin' me out. So I just wrote a poem and made some baba ganoush.

Kevin A. Risner @mrdecember.bsky.social · 17d

Shit. I started this three months ago! Poems got in the way. Maybe I need to do some more noveling ...

porting over my “banger novel openings” thread from the bird site

Screenshot of a Twitter post I found on that reads: there was a spring in second grade where every single recess I would walk out to the most remote part of the playground, “die” dramatically, and lie motionless for the entire 20 minutes. I was trying to trick a Turkey vulture into coming down to eat me so I could grab it as a pet.

A tweet by Evan Woodbery informing us that "Tarik Skubal said Guards' manager Stephen Vogt gave him a lift to the hospital last night and they went together to check in on David Fry."

Kevin A. Risner @mrdecember.bsky.social · 18d

That was an utterly and unbelievably ABSURD half inning. 😭

Kevin A. Risner @mrdecember.bsky.social · 18d

David Fry seems to be OK. But that was scary... wow...
