Social services attorney on the Jersey side of the Philly suburbs; law, history, gardening 😉🌬 and trading cards. MLB: Tigers/Phillies; NFL: Giants; NBA: 90s. @jpesq_ and @esqgranny on that other site and I'm too tired to maintain two accounts anymore.
Someone sent a happy Thanksgiving email to the entire office that said "Everyone enjoy time with their loves ones," and my first thought was DONT YOU TELL ME WHAT TO DO

I might be feeling extra cynical/antisocial today 🤷‍♂️

If I'm being honest, I haven't trusted Campbell's since they switched the SpaghettiOs brand from Franco American and lied about not changing the recipe.

I'm so glad my cynicism has once again been reinforced.

I just can't get over that, out of all of the infinite parallel universes in which I could inhabit, I'm stuck in the universe in which we CHOSE Back to the Future 2's alternate 1985.

I'm old enough to remember the good ol' days when companies stood by their products. Good times.
An out of touch tech bro, thinking he was funny, tore into Campbell's stock. Their recipe changes aren't helping too.

"The filing further alleges Bally launched into racist remarks about Indian colleagues, calling them “idiots” who “didn’t know anything” and couldn’t think independently."

I asked my middle school-aged kids to empty the dishwasher for me. You know, because I broke my finger?

The. Audacity.

How dare I ask them to put the clean dishes away so that I'm in less pain when putting the dirty dishes into the dishwasher?

We can't afford to help working Americans because capitalism put America $38,000,000,000,000 in debt, says local Republican.

The late 90s was the best time to watch baseball. Don't @ me.

Also, these older Gold Label sets were gorgeous. Easily one of my favorite all-time sets.

Why'd they ever switch from this embossed, super-glossy, high-end product to that foil finish they used before they canceled it? #cardsky

All my life, people said empty platitudes like "those who fail to learn history are doomed to repeat it," but you don't need to have studied history here.

You idiots literally watched a war of regime change-for-oil in Iraq under Bush.

And before that, you watched it happen in Iraq.

Under Bush.

I don’t want folks to forget She held on as long as she could but will never see justice for what this country did to her.

Keep talking about her and the Tulsa Massacre because too many want to pretend like these folks don’t exist or it was a long time ago.

I'd be crying too if I had all the resources in the world and still couldn't pass the bar. Must be tough knowing fame and fortune can't buy what she wants.

I passed in 2 states at a time when I was on food stamps, while working, with a 5-month-old baby at home.

She must not want to do the work 🤷‍♂️

The mail carrier brought me this dope 2017 Panini Diamond Kings Ernie Banks bat/jersey dual relic card today! #cardsky

I sure do love vintage relics in modern cards 😀

Did I really just see a political ad asking his constituents to call Dave McCormick and THANK him for his work on the self-described "Big Beautiful Bill"?

What the fuck kind of future is this?

I had a hard week, and that was BEFORE my dog broke my finger, so I hit up my LCS and chased some dopamine. How'd I do? #cardsky

Obviously the Rainer and Keider are the highlights, and how could I pass up a piece of a pitcher's game-used bat? Plus the other swag I picked up is pretty dope imho 😀

This is Shazam!, who earned his name (at least in part) based on his supercanine strength.

Anyway, this morning when I put him out, I made the mistake of trying to stop him from doing his best Kool Aid Man impression on my fence, so really it's my fault that he broke my finger. #dogsofbluesky
