Well, we got all the canning done. Two kinds of salsa, tomato sauce, Dilly beans and pickles. Since I'm prediabetic and my husband has diabetes, no jam this year.
Patrick Wisdom pitch hitting tells you all you need to know about the #mariners right now.
Everyone! We’ve added another game before the season ends! Tues Sept 22 - top rows of section 187. Join us!! @scorekeepersunion.org
Fire everybody, starting with the POBO and the head coach. #mariners
What???? There's a group of people who hang out and keep score at Mariners games??? How can I join?
Vargas is bad. He doesn't know where the ball is going.
9 to the plate in the first inning??? And they're taking good ABs???
Hey @lookoutlanding.bsky.social - I was really bummed to hear a Kalshi promo on the Meet at the Mitt podcast. Do you have control over who advertised on your pod? Kalshi was ordered to cease most operations in WA. Would love it if y'all cut ties.
OMG the Seattle Times got it right. WA voters - please vote no on mandatory invasive genital checks for female athletes this fall.
Erica C. Barnett@ericacbarnett.bsky.social · 2d agoGood job, Seattle Times Editorial Board. Excluding trans girls from sports (or telling them they have to play with boys, which is the same thing) is ritual humiliation. www.seattletimes.com/opinion/edit...
Ummmm what are you doing, Mariners? No off day tomorrow and Bryce has only thrown 65 pitches.
As a new Harry Potter trailer makes the rounds, it bears repeating that there’s no way to watch this show without supporting J.K. Rowling’s bigotry and the structural violence she’s inflicting on the trans community.
There is no ethical consumption of HBO’s Harry Potter series
You can’t without supporting Rowling’s transphobic bigotry.

MLB owners say they need a salary cap, which will hold payrolls down, leaving more money for them. A team about to finish under .500 for the 11th consecutive season and that hasn’t won a postseason game since 2009 is going to be sold for $4B. Nobody cries poverty like ultra-rich white men.
I always love the first good end of summer rain because it knocks down wildfires. I know I'm gonna be sick of rain in a few months.
Arte Moreno bought the Angels in 2003 (the year after they won the Series) for $184 million. He then spent 23 years running them into the ground, let the stadium decay, wasted Trout and Ohtani, and sold for $4 billion. And the owners are crying poverty and threatening to kill baseball next year.
Was hoping to get the lawn mowed before it starts raining tomorrow, and the rain came early.
Ready? Set? Slooooowww down... on NB I-5 in Lacey starting tonight, 9/1 🚧 Lane reductions start as early as 6pm! We're replacing cracked & worn concrete panels along I-5 this fall, Tues-Sat nights. (No work over the holiday weekend, Fri-Mon.) More info: bit.ly/4we6ZaO @traffic.wsdot.wa.gov
Oh shit the Angels have real owners now. Mariners are fucked.
Nate Atkins@nateatkins.bsky.social · 4d agoStan Kroenke is acquiring the Los Angeles Angels from the Moreno family. Kroenke will now own controlling interest of the Rams and Angels in L.A., in addition to the Denver Nuggets, Colorado Avalanche and Arsenal.
Dan Wilson had his pitcher Walk The bases loaded in the bottom of the 10th inning with one out. He should be fired for that alone. I am so tired of s***** managerial decisions it's not even funny! They need to clean house this off season!
Instead of listening to the #mariners lose again, I'm listening to @megrowler.fangraphs.com go off on what a bad manager Dan Wilson is. Thank you, Meg!!!!!
Started watching Hard Knocks and I'm so impressed by Coach McDonald.
Live music two nights in a row. Love my South Sound life.
OK I didn't think I could have a bigger crush on Carrie Brownstein.
I'm seeing Sleater-Kinney tonight! Not the same without Janet Weiss but I am def stoked.
Boss wants to take away my Tableau license to save money...and I'd have to recreate everything I do in a new tool. And would need time to learn that tool. Doesn't save the cost of my license.
I would welcome back vibes, strikeouts and occasional home run king Eugenio Suarez in a heartbeat
