What the absolute fuck happened when I walked away from the game to get ready for bed?

Mostly here to talk about the Phillies, Flyers, and whatever team I'm bandwagoning. No pronouns, do not refer to me ever.
Bzzzzzttt. Wrong! One fun thing about being an American is that I can say literally whatever I want whenever I want.
Americans really don’t get to be talking like this anymore
It's so cool seeing authors getting longer book tours so now I can scan down a list of 17 stops for an author whose work I've been reading for like a decade and think, "Dammit, she's not coming to Philly" just like when my all favorite bands post about their tours on Instagram
one thing I miss from the pre-genAI days is that there was no questioning that human nonsense was simply human nonsense. a dog piloting a plane? some silly human toiled over that in photoshop. now, when something is nonsensical, we question if it’s ai and don’t get to enjoy it the same way.
Sorry to post about my struggles and profound failures on main but I had a whole plan of how I wanted to Do A Hobby tonight and then I came home to find one of the cats peed in my room so I had to clean that and now I just want to go to bed
I dunno, I seem to do fine posting through all my struggles as a Phillies fan
On social media, a broad consensus is that you can’t admit to struggle — at least not while you’re struggling. Doing so represents a failure so profound it’s almost existential. How did it become mandatory to demonstrate perpetual growth and progress online?
Poor Bob Nightengale, in a world where everyone (except Passan) is constantly wrong, he is mocked incessantly. Should we mock him less? No. We should be mocking the others more.
I have to make time to call a bunch of doctors offices and make a bunch of appointments and I will do it and it will be fine, but also it sucks that I can't just schedule online
please keep the phillies in your thoughts and prayers, they’ve been made to play a baseball game again 💔
It feels like Nola the only pitcher that ever starts on days when I can actually watch the game
MLB Network: there have been 36 trades made in the last half hour, however we are going to ask our cleaning staff what they think about the Tarik Skubal trade
Going to the Phillies game tonight and they’re letting me play shortstop

The fact that literally everyone (correctly) thinks the Phillies line up shifts are stupid means that they are actually going to work bc this team is just a psyop designed to make Philadelphians feel insane for six months of the year
I keep thinking this publication can't get any worse and then they keep pumping out articles like this
The ‘Jeopardy!’ host made it absolutely clear where he stands once again.
it's extremely fucked to personally target a single trans person for an extremely mild critique of your behavior and then turn your "apology" into a self-indulgent brag about what a good ally you are, actually
The ‘Jeopardy!’ host made it absolutely clear where he stands once again.

If you never use the discounts that your taxes pay for, especially when it's a literal grocery store anyone can go to, then that's not the government's fault for once. That's your own poor choice.
Opinion: Mamdani's idea may sound appealing, but it's NYC taxpayers who will take the hit, subsidizing discounts they may never even use.
He's just standing there ... MENACINGLY The Phillies have traded for Luis Arraez and all of his one-of-a-kind moments at the dish 🤣
"The New York Mets may not be able to play a lick, but they're darn good people." "Babe Ruth has got nothing on me. I could show him a thing or two." "I've been watching these girls play since they were young and if they don't do it I'll kick them in the rear." Maybelle is amazing.
Today at work, a customer got so mad about the cookies missing from her delivery order that she told my manager she was gonna come to the store and fuck me up because I told her I couldn't schedule a new delivery... but she wouldn't come to the store to get her cookies so like

When I become commissioner, I will remove Los Angeles Dodgers from existence
I feel like the issue with the Dodgers getting Skubal has less to do with a need for a salary cap or anything else and more to do with it being boring. Everyone knew that’s where he’d end up. Sports are more fun when there are surprises. This is just uninspired script writing.
Is the salary cap also going to make the Dodgers have a bad farm system?
the Red Sox could’ve kept Betts. Freeman wanted to stay in Atlanta more than anything and they passed. Machado didn’t stay. It’s not impossible for other teams to keep and sign these sorts of guys.
