Don't mind me as I play ambient music at my desk all day and try to disconnect from Election Day coverage.

I am facing a dear friend in fantasy, and she had her co-workers draft her team for her, and said co-workers laughed at me for drafting Charbonnet just to stash him on my IR. And now, I need Charbonnet to get me – I kid you not – 1.15 points, and it's increasingly looking like he may not.
OH MY GOD THEY DID THE STONE COLD LEAVING THE AMBULANCE BIT
Wait… how does a roundtrip ambulance ride work? And also, is the return covered by insurance?
i'm ecstatic to get a game 7 but making a west coast team play its most important game of the season at their 9:30 am is a disadvantage manufactured by the league and that feels icky
Halloween falls on a Saturday. We get a primetime Game 7. AND we get an extra hour of sleep?! YESSSSSSSS.
Sarah Spain ✨@sarahspain.com · 5d agoI know Valks fans won't agree but this result is great for the league -- a Game 7 in primetime at Balhalla? Best way to close out the season.
Knew ATL would show up but this is so awesome to see 🫡
Steph Noh@stephnoh.bsky.social · 5d ago12:30pm ET tip for Finals Game 6, Atlanta showed up. Full stadium, crazy energy.
I'm going to cry I'm so excited!!! Thanks, @atom7895.bsky.social for immediately securing us tickets!

Packers are generally undisciplined but some of these calls are pretttttty wack
I finally get what my husband always meant when he said (in his case, about every one of his teams): It may not be good, but it will be entertaining. #Packers
Nothing captures the essence of this game more than fireworks going off as Golden drops a TD.

Why does all of Baltimore smell like burnt chipotle today?! (Serious question.)
Baltimore's weather today: I've already changed my clothes three times, and I'm about to change them a fourth (and later, a fifth, when we plunge back into chilly).
Also: I adore the Baltimore Running Festival. It is my absolute favorite day of the year to be in Baltimore, second only to Halloween. I get serious FOMO every year I don't run/cheer... ...And also: I do NOT envy the runners for facing 30-40 MPH wind gusts in Saturday's forecast.
Listen, I know I’m an obnoxious grammar nerd — but, the mere fact that the lede of this article includes the phrase “less touches” makes me want to walk into the ocean: www.thescore.com/nfl/news/362... Also, my fantasy team relies heavily on James Cook so I, too, am annoyed by all his fumbles.

Shoutout to doctors willing to throw some spaghetti at the wall to try to spare me the perfect storm of a migraine situation this weekend (aka, a literal hurricane). The latest tactic: throwing preemptive allergy meds and nasal sprays into the weapons arsenal... Has anyone had any luck with this?
in humanoid robot movies the dilemma is always "the robot is programmed to perform humanity's grimmest tasks, but cannot love or be loved and will never feel the joy of holding a baby in its arms" but tech bros are like "great news, I just coded BabyHoldr 4.1 so I don't have to hold my baby anymore"

I mean no offense by this, but one day, I'd like to see the marketing numbers that drove T-Mobile to double down so hard on recruiting Billy Bob Thornton for all their commercials.
I did not break 5:00 in my marathon (I am proud of my time regardless – marathons are hard! – but I also ran through a very painful IT band injury). That said... the fact that this influencer *cheated* to get just a few minutes under 5:00 makes me feel like a superhero lol
The New York Times@nytimes.com · 4w agoFrom @theathletic.com: A Chinese fitness influencer with over half a million social media followers has publicly apologised after images emerged of her sitting on the back of a bike in the final kilometres of the Berlin Marathon.
I'm sorry... the Orioles laid off their mascot? I get that the mascot will still exist in some capacity, but just... is every MLB (or simply every men's pro team) on a mission to cut fan experiences for everyone but the wealthiest? I assume this is to afford to add more VIP seats or something.
