I have mariners fans staying with me & after they got home from the game & were on the phone discussing logistics for tickets to future games & the guy on the end of the line said “oh fuck the Yankees” so loud we could hear it & then we amplified that back. It’s the feel good hit of the fall

Heather Hogan @heatherhogan.bsky.social · 1d

Wife: Fuck the Yankees!

Me: Hey maybe let’s don’t yell “Fuck the Yankees” with the windows open.

Wife, louder: FUCK THE YANKEES!

Guy walking by outside: FUCK THE YANKEES!

“she’s in culture,” her friend said.

i finally realised that i was talking to

Dude I once stopped and had a conversation in Las Vegas with Brad Pitt and I didn’t realize it was him until I walked away. Just thought he was another Springsteen fan from LA I met at dinner the night before

Lots of people are talking about Katie Porter but nobody's sharing the video they're talking about when they're talking about Porter, and of course I found it on an account I muted, and of course the "problem" is that she sternly enforced boundaries as a woman

Oh! It turns out there's another video. She curses. She's crabby. It's otherwise not notable. If a man said the same thing without cursing it would not be news anywhere. But Politico is leaking it anyway.

It's honestly not any worse than what people believe elites are like in private.

This is exactly what we need. This is it.

"New York City Council member Chi Ossé, a close ally of Zohran Mamdani, is privately discussing a run against House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.)"

Scoop: Mamdani ally weighs challenging Hakeem Jeffries

Just talking about a potential campaign could drive a further wedge between Mamdani — the democratic socialist in line to be New York's next mayor — and Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.)

elsewhere in the seattle mariners extended universe a fan is eating small amounts of dirt he collected from the t-mobile infield every day because he wanted to change the vibes after game 1 and since it worked he’s trapped eating dirt every day
