Eugenio Suarez already won that. He has beautiful, flat ironed looking hair.

This baseball game has been going on so long that the part where the announcer announces player names feels like a bit from The Shining

They clearly don’t want to decide the outcome of this game by playing more baseball, so maybe they could switch to an eating contest?

Since Link is banned, his mutual aid Fridays have gone with him. This was one of the most altruistic things I’ve seen anyone on this site do.

In light of this, I’m gonna try to fill the gap.

Drop your mutual aid requests under this thread and I will repost them for as long as I can.

repost this if an editor has ever saved you from yourself

An actual hot take: Too many authors are afraid of editors watering down their voice or whatever and not afraid enough of editors letting you put any old slop on the page.
