QRS with your most popular piece On Bluesky it was, ironically, one of the little Grim Guard guys as well... but over on Instagram, at 3k likes (and still occasionally ticking) it's not even close, with this Death Guard Scrungaloid just rocketing ahead of anything else!

Trade some middling prospects for Freddy Peralta, instantly break his whole shit and flop so bad that all of America knows what every inch of your ass looks like, trade Peralta for some maybe-better prospects to a team that fixes him instantly.

Hate it when you see what you think is a cool bird and you look it up later and it’s called like the Common Dumb Asshole. “Birders throughout history have hated its guts. It can’t even fly right.” I thought I saw an interesting guy.

Braves vs Phillies: obviously I revel in the suffering of philadelphia, america's most unnecessary city. but ultimately, the braves are everything evil about america, so i have to unfortunately slightly pull for the phillies here

if you think about it, winning via a direct connection to the divine father of all creation through His appointed emissary on Earth is a much more egregious cheating scandal than banging on trash cans
