See, the issue that Crumbl has is that it’s bad. Wads of flavorless, barely cooked dough. They deserve this.

There are only 2 good Pixar movies, and it’s the first two Toy Story entries. Also: I said good, not great. Cool your jets, nerds.

@davyandrewsdavy.bsky.social I particularly like that your psuedostat is called HHRHR, which sounds like what 2007 GM was really banking on*. *this joke is aimed at the Venn diagram of stat nerds and car guys versed in crappy early-2k’s US cars. That diagram may meet at a single point: me.

I wrote the first few lines of this in a @fangraphs.com member chatroom during the NLCS and decided to polish it up a little. Fatherhood makes you soft.

I mostly worked through personnel services during summer breaks from college, so I had a ton of one-day jobs. The one they wanted me back for but that I refused was a screen print shop, taking t-shirts out of the oven. The most memorable was driving (unused) caskets from a mortuary to the dump.

For me it’s Cleveland hard #1, then LA, then…I guess Tampa? Then a planet-killing comet, then the preemptive dissolution of the league. That about covers it.

I’ve internet-known Dayn for years, and met him in real life at the 2016 World Series. He’s a gentleman and a hell of a writer. I’ve ordered this, and I think you should too.

How are we feeling, fellow lifetime Dodgers fans? Excited for another run through the playoffs?

I’m willing to go out on a limb and say that there has never been a worse booth than Pierzynski and Wainwright. Just absolutely execrable. Whoever the third guy in the booth is, he’s just normal bad. But this is painful.

So to recap: if the Brewers didn’t play in a shitty barn of a stadium they lose the lead.

“Toyota Home Run Replay” banner completely obscuring the home run it’s replaying. Great job all around guys.

@cdgoldstein.baseballprospectus.com Am I allowed to nominate “Belmont Cragin, the city’s largest Latino…”?

American Recordings by Johnny Cash, or Exile on Main St. by The Rolling Stones.

Everyone needs to read this. There’s no person whose day wouldn’t be made better by reading this.

@davyandrewsdavy.bsky.social I haven’t even finished the article yet but I have to let you know that “super anemia” made me laugh until the dog came to make sure I was okay.

@cespedesbbq.bsky.social Does this count for the bold prediction?

I say this every time I put on a hat. I do not own a cowboy hat.

We have to find new ways to trick rich people into spending their money on things that accidentally help others. Fund cancer research by putting all the labs inside massive ziggurats

Does anyone out there have strong opinions on going with a NAS vs repurposing an old machine as file server? Done the latter for 20+ yrs. Current box is getting old & need to either upgrade with new guts or go with a Synology, etc. Is making the change worth it? @willsmith.fun @tommerritt.com

Man, even Benetti can’t save this booth. Worst.

I loved watching him play but god as my witness I’d rather sit through 1990s clips of Hawk Harrelson than listen to another word out his mouth.

Crying Newborn Has No Idea How Much Worse It Gets

Up Toy Story 3 Cars etc, etc Pixar is a blight and I’ll brook no dissent on this.

When PCA does something good my brothers and I send the gif of the ‘90s kid giving the thumbs up at a PC to each other. I had it queued up before he saw a pitch.

At this point just go back to two division winners. This is embarrassing.

The threads UI is inscrutable to me. How do I see the people I nominally follow? I don’t want the people saying shit like “cat tax in the comments!” I don’t want the chef that only posts one-pan meals involving a can of beans and the salt from your tears. I want the baseball people. That’s it.

Pete’s all “fuck it, just gonna win this motherfucker myself.”

@morbotheannihilatr.bsky.social Not sure if you’re the same Morbo from today’s @fangraphs.com chat, but if you are thanks for the car recommendation.👍🏻

So that’s the thing to know, if you’re a tabloid that’s going to name-check me in another round of transphobic shit about Bluesky discourse. I don’t stand with you. I stand with my trans friends and family members. ⏹️

Is there a worse booth than Amin, Wainwright, Pierzynski? Trick question! No.

Mine (1975): * Gigabyte * Grade inflation * Information appliance * Standard model * Wetware

My parents bought the 1986 edition of the Encyclopedia Brittanica, and I read that a bunch. It was still on the shelf when I went back to clean out my childhood home for sale last year. I almost brought it back for my kids but that would have been ridiculous.

Film you've watched more than six times with a gif. Hard mode: no Star Trek, Star Wars, LOTR, Marvel, Disney, or Ghibli. 2nd Edit: or Spielberg or McTiernan, because those are the easy ones

Methinks Pedro Ramirez is playing his way onto the Blue Jays.

Is it because kids are “smart” and “see through the huckster bullshit?” Who’s to say.

Real “Ship of Theseus” situation here.

An incompetent teacher steals a box some German guys found.

There was a period of time that I was seeing 2 movies in-theater every week because I had nothing better to do. I saw a lot of bad movies, but the two that stuck with me were The Rock’s “Snitch,” a Lifetime Movie of The Week-ass movie, and “Baby Driver,” a miserable slog of bad decisions.

Ray Bravia Sounds more like a hard-boiled detective, but I’ll take it.

“Verify your age” My family had a constant supply of return-for-deposit pint glass Pepsi bottles in the fridge.

Couldn’t agree more. Dear god, I just want Google Reader back. We used to be a society.
