I have seen one quarter of preseason basketball and I'm ready to crown Toumani Camara MVP this year. #Blazers That's totally reasonable, right?

I love sports but I don't bet on them. Right now, it feels like all the sports leagues are mad at me for not betting. They're really hitting me over the head with it - feels like all the targeted ads are betting related, and it's just icky to me.

Wow, I've only had it on for a few minutes but could #NBC do anything more to paint #Oregon as the villain in this game? It is 100% love for #PennState. Wtf? I thought this was a national broadcast? I'm going to have to just mute it.

56 Home Runs?!?!!!! Cal Raleigh is an absolute force of nature. #Mariners

Dan Williams @danwilliams.bsky.social · 23d

The #Mariners knocked the Royals starting pitcher out in the third inning. They have to keep it going and they are keeping it going. I love this team

Jalen Carter might be a great football player, but he is a gigantic idiot.

This is what they trained for. Surely they are not just willing puppets in a political charade.

Discworld QOTD, from Men at Arms

The reason that the rich were so rich, Vimes reasoned, was because they managed to spend less money.

Take boots, for example. He earned thirty-eight dollars a month plus allowances. A really good pair of leather boots cost fifty dollars. But an affordable pair of boots, which were sort of OK for a season or two and then leaked like hell when the cardboard gave out, cost about ten dollars.

Those were the kind of boots Vimes always bought, and wore until the soles were so thin that he could tell where he was in Ankh-Morpork on a foggy night by the feel of the cobbles.

But the thing was that good boots lasted for years and years. A man who could afford fifty dollars had a pair of boots that'd still be keeping his feet dry in ten years' time, while the poor man who could only afford cheap boots would have spent a hundred dollars on boots in the same time and would still have wet feet.

This was the Captain Samuel Vimes 'Boots' theory of socioeconomic unfairness.

If you don't post this every Labor Day already, you should. Terry understood labor. Perhaps my favorite quote of his and the perfect day for it. Thank you
