The guy sitting behind me is explaining to his friend, who must not follow baseball, who all the players are "That's the Big Dumper. They call him that because he has a big butt."

Probably makes no difference, but part of me thinks constantly saying "if there even is a 2027 season" manufactures consent for a lockout. I'd prefer not to normalize the idea of owners shutting down the sport in order to break a union. That should be a weird, extreme, unacceptable course of action.

I am in a meeting where I kind of have to pay attention to what's being said even though I haven't had to talk the whole time, and Toby is annoyed because to him it looks like I'm not doing anything and he thinks I should be paying attention to him instead

I tried putting cinnamon in my coffee this morning, not sure why, but anyway I feel like it might taste better if I were a person who also put sweetener in their coffee because the cinnamon alone isn't quite doing it for me
