Anyhoo go to shows & be curious about what people are making & doing cuz it's our primary antidote to having a shit time & the current tech-promotional ecosystem is awful & antithetical to thriving cultural scenes

aka come to all my shows & tell your friends 2 read Everett Flabbergasters

This is only about Stabby Myrvang & the Ballard Pukey Swedes, & to suggest it has any implications regarding any other baseball team would be utterly ridiculous.

The Ballard Pukey Swedes confront existence

Or at least, two children with homemade fireworks and a dysfunctional city water system do.

Matt Calkins is such a self-obsessed douche who has surface-level knowledge on everything & thinks hes an expert, & has been forever. He's the epitome of a mediocre dude who somehow gets to keep his job over people who actually know what theyre talking about.

(to the scrape of a mournful fiddle) My dear Theodora, If indeed my fate holds that I may not return to you and the twins, listen for my voice in each breath of the wind. Ribbit, it sighs...ribbit...ribbit...

As the administration goes all in on an alternate reality about portland that bears no resemblance to fact and rule of law, continuing radical (and just plain funny, ridiculing) acts of the imagination along with other ways of getting out the reality on the ground may help curb their momentum.

David Simon, creator of ‘The Wire’, being interviewed by Ari Shapiro (NPR)

SHAPIRO: OK, so you've spent your career creating television without Al, and I could imagine today you thinking, boy, I wish I had had that tool to solve those thorny problems...
SIMON: What?
SHAPIRO: ...Or saying...
SIMON: You imagine that?
SHAPIRO: ...Boy, if that had existed, it would have screwed me over.
SIMON: I don't think Al can remotely challenge what writers do at a fundamentally creative level.
SHAPIRO: But if you're trying to transition from scene five to scene six, and you're stuck with that transition, you could imagine plugging that portion of the script into an Al and say, give me 10 ideas for how to transition this.
SIMON: I'd rather put a gun in my mouth.

Writing another Everett Flabbergasters chapter about our favorite very factual and based-in-reality old PNW baseball teams & realized I needed to amend something. Wouldn't want to get ahead of things when there's only 2 outs, would we now.

This is him as well.

Not all Christians are right wing MAGA - some of them actually live out Christ’s teachings.

If you're looking for a pleasant time after your heart explodes from Mariners-ing Friday, might I suggest this show at Urban Family Brewing.

Whatever happens w/ the Ms, ~this~ will feature me instead of Carlos Vargas or Caleb Ferguson so you know it's stress-free.
