It's easy to stereotype but I feel like Dodgers-Braves is the most evenly matched "fans would have participated in January 6th" series possible.

It was Fire in the Sky which I saw mostly by accident on Showtime. I spent every night for many years thinking I was going to be abducted by aliens.
In honor of scary media month: what is the first piece of media you remember truly frightening you as a child?
Blake Snell is so funny because he is the MLB pitcher who gives off the most "behind the counter at the vape store" vibes.
You know what I like the best about the bass player? His neck. youtu.be/LkMAFw2ftTY?...

Just got weirdly emotional because I was watching Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives and Guy Fieri went to a wonderful Indian restaurant in the same shopping center where I would go grocery shopping with my mom when I was 5.
Suzanne Lacy, Three Weeks in May, 1977, an extended performance art piece. Each day Lacy stamped locations of LA sexual assaults on a map; fainter markings stood for estimated nine additional rapes for every one reported. A second map displayed sites of resistance www.suzannelacy.com/three-weeks-...
I will stop being mean to establishment Democrats I generally agree with when they stop sending me texts like this.
The Braves would be such a fun team sometimes if not... you know.
The great irony of the "Choosin Texas" thing is that if the country music industrial complex was just like "we make good music that people like" they'd be unstoppable. Garth Brooks played to 1 MILLION people in Central Park in 1997.
Anyway thank god the Mets were not saddled with this guy's contract, what a great move.
Pete Alonso led the AL in RBI He led the NL (and tied for MLB lead) in 2022 He’s the first player to have a season leading each league in RBI in his career (RBI since 1920)
Starting a series where I debunk the LA Times "how to have the best Sunday" features as being chronologically and geographically impossible to achieve.
All my exes choosin' Texas, that's why I hang my hat in Tennessee
RIP Chad Gilbert. If you want to play metalcore, you should be strapped to a chair and forced to listen to the first Shai Hulud record. If you want to play big room emo, you should be strapped to a chair and forced to listen to the first two New Found Glory records.
Universal Studios Halloween Horror Nights is the ultimate twisty experience for the current generation. Without Ozzfest there is no other place for like-minded Fear Factory fans to touch each other in public.
I lived in NYC for many years so I'm familiar with the concept of the "city target" (messy, poor inventory, basically a glorified CVS) but the Target nearest to me in West LA is a whole different animal in terms of being a retail black hole.

You really do have to fire David Stearns here, it's kind of embarrassing.
Pete Alonso just botched a throw at first and I remembered a time when I used to be so frustrated by that happening once a game instead of every other inning.

While many things have gotten worse over the years a thing I will say has gotten better is people doing shows generally sharing the set times in advance.
I very rarely remember my dreams but last night's stuck with me. It included: - running into Noah Syndergaard on the street - attending a party where I accidentally let a horse loose - asking a woman where she got her purse and being angrily told "my mom died last week and she gave it to me"
Been a while since I watched a baseball game as dumb as this Mets-Marlin game.
It does seem like a flaw in our system that you can run for a senator on a bunch of platforms and once elected be like "HAHA JK SUCKERS" and there's nothing the people who voted for you can do about it.
EXCLUSIVE: Sen. John Fetterman is preparing to make a bombshell appearance tonight at the GOP convention in a video praising President Trump and Pennsylvania GOP Sen. Dave McCormick
I found a new worst audible thing someone can do on a phone in a public space and it's choose a new alarm sound.
I worked in a pool store fixing filters and selling cleaning chemicals for a summer. I had a persistent cough for like a decade.
Happy labor day (USA). What's one of the oddest paid job you've had? Mine was probably as a reader for a medical professor at Rutgers, whose eyes were failing. I read him many academic texts, as well as Samuel Butler's "The Way of All Flesh."
