Inside each of us is a little boy, a shy, lovesick girl with a curse, a demon made of fire, and a shape-shifting wizard with no heart.

Could Finnegan even finish one inning? Of course not

I still think they should have let Skubal pitch the seventh. I don’t know, best pitcher in the game, or Kyle McDumbshit? And we all could have gone to sleep hours ago

We’re getting absolutely nowhere.

I’ve got an idea: what if we put a runner on second at the start of every extra inning? It wouldn’t be fair or even all that useful, but it could add a certain dickless spice

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

Because I’m telling you, would kinda like to know what the universe is like if the Tigers had let Skubal pitch the 7th right now

Idk I know Skubal was at 100 pitches but I’d have let him try another side if he were feeling ok

There’s only one Mariner who’s batted who hasn’t been struck out by Skubal yet tonight (Josh Naylor)

11 strikeouts in five innings for Skubal, who as of now would be credited with a loss. My man could use some bat help

Trump: "Portland, I mean -- every time I look at that place it's burning down. There are fires all over the place. When a store -- there are very few of them left -- but when a store owner rebuilds a store they build it out of plywood. They don't put up storefronts anymore. They just put wood up."

A Short Bright Flash by Theresa Levitt, a history of lighthouses and the way the Fresnel lens revolutionized all of it. More dramatic than you'd expect!
