Chicken tenders would be taken more seriously as a menu item if everyone’s were like the ones from Two Brothers Catering. Just tried a spare one from my daughter and holy shit. Way to respect the bird.

At a certain point, the ALCS doesn't actually "start." The Jays just show up and take over a dugout from one of these teams and the game continues.

my only question is why do we have to wait for the 15th inning to implement this

After the 15th inning it is time to replace one player with a dog until someone wins or it's all dogs.

baseball is the best preparation for death because it does not come with a clock that tells you when your suffering will end one way or the other

I enjoy AJ Pierzynski's TV work and it's not just my White Sox homerism talking.

I play for the Chicago Bulls. I don’t even come home to Crozet anymore, I just stay in Chicago and lace ‘em up.

Trump: "Portland, I mean -- every time I look at that place it's burning down. There are fires all over the place. When a store -- there are very few of them left -- but when a store owner rebuilds a store they build it out of plywood. They don't put up storefronts anymore. They just put wood up."

Thune: "If the Democrats had won the majority, they probably would've tried to nuke the filibuster. And then you'd have four new senators from Puerto Rico and DC, you'd have a packed Supreme Court, you'd have abortion on demand ... "

Really enjoyed Craig Finn's reflections on his early days in NYC

25 Years in NYC

Just over twenty five years ago, I got off an airplane and took a taxi to a small apartment on Clinton and Stanton, in the Lower East Side of Manhattan.

Rep. Buddy Carter: "Donald Trump deserves the Nobel Peace Prize. That's why I'm introducing a resolution today that will honor him with the Nobel Peace Prize."

Jay Jones should have respected the boundary between "I won't be sad when ____ dies" and "I'd pull the trigger myself, twice on Sundays" that crossing makes you seem sick.

@americanaquarium.bsky.social’s merch person is wearing a @cheekface.bsky.social shirt. Keeping with the idea of wearing your gear out and finding your people, I said hi and we agreed that Cheekface rules.

There’s a guy with a Turnstile shirt on singing his heart out at this American Aquarium show and it’s not me.
