New therapist specs:

-Not a cis-het man or chatbot.
-Ideally bipolar but at least has been suicidal.
-Versed in DBT but knows meditation isn't good for everyone.
-Wildly attracted to me and will not hesitate to act on feelings, ethics be damned, how can something so wrong feel so right.
-Polite.

Mariners developed a team superstition and all grew them, so it's extra temporarily! Now that they've lost they will be shaved en masse.

Reminds me of that year the Braves lost and Kimbrel was fuming in the pen, so pissed off he wasn't going in. The Mariners don't have any guys who would express themselves that way. But they all know what happened.

Oh hey look it's hockey season! Go Kraken! Go Untitled Seattle Women!

Man, I was prepared for a loss. If the Mariners had used their best weapons and it hadn't worked, I would have been fine, that's the game. But that was so stupid, I just feel let down and embarrassed. As much as 10yo me loves him, they're wasting this window by employing Dan Wilson.

My thinking behind this was there could be fewer base runners and home runs.

I'm building the last 3 innings out of Brash and Muñoz personally!

#WantItAll is so greedy, we're just a bunch of humble trident enthusiasts over here. In Conclave they want to make sure the new Pope is a guy who doesn't wanna be Pope super bad, guys who do are hella sus. It's like that. #TridentsUp

A wild choice from Vladimir Guerrero Jr. as he arrives at the Rogers Centre in a Toronto Maple Leafs jersey.

Clearly some thinking behind it — but not exactly the Game 7 history you want to be replicating tonight.

Just four hours away now.

Our flags at No Kings Seattle got a shout out from KING 5!

"One of the things that stands out to me is the pride flags over there on the far side of the park. The largest trans pride flag I've seen. That is new to me."

🎵 Go Mariners go,
Go Mariners go!
Hey Seattle whaddyyou say,
The Mariners are gonna win today! 🎵

Just a little ditty I made up all by myself, anyone can sing it! It draws on a wide range of my influences. #TridentsUp #LightTheW

OK whoa: I was accidentally shipped an item. Looked it up on Amazon, $86. So I listed it on eBay for $70. Under an hour later, saw it on Slick Deals, $70 on Amazon. Is Amazon price-matching ME? And if so, is it possible I could use this to my advantage? Ancient Alien theorists... say yes...

Andrew @andrewflincoln.bsky.social · 2d

Someone got a bunch of traction on here saying we're all "numb" because "we've never been oppressed before," and...what. Good for you, person, but man you're really telling on yourself. This fight is not new for most of us. Nevertheless, welcome to the party, even if you're fashionably late.

Our little town of 3k, Petersburg Alaska, turned out around 500 people for the No Kings rally, in the pouring rain.
It was awesome!

Good job as always Seattle!

In the middle of a big crowd lifting protest signs and flags. "HANDS OFF," WE ❤️ AMERICA TOO," "NO KINGS."

Andrew @andrewflincoln.bsky.social · 2d

Good vibes in Seattle!

Protest sign: "FUCK FASCISM / GO MARINERS!"

I know a few strippers in Seattle and the word is that Blue Jays are trash tippers so do with that what you will.

We all became Phillies fans vs Houston so much appreciated!

A Blue Jays fan who came in from Saskatchewan said it was a "bomb game" and he was just happy to be a part of it even if the Mariners won. We promised to cheer for each other's team in the World Series as needed. Such a wholesome little budding rivalry we have here!

I've never been there with the roof closed while it was so perfectly sunny outside. It felt so dark. But loud of course! And it did work, again.
