poor Mickey Gasper; in the stark separation of Bad Times from Good Times, he lands sharply on the wrong side of the dividing line.
Chad Finn@chadfinn.bsky.social · 9h agoI look at the lineup every day and I’m like, “How?” And then they go out and win 11-3 or something. 😂
the Stevie Wonder vocoder song from Sesame Street is stuck in my head (“one two three / Sesame Street”) and if you want to join me there’s plenty of room on the dancefloor

Only just catching up to this and now I’m fascinated. A rock n’ roll mystery on par with John Lennon’s Easton High School baseball jersey.
Jacob Pomrenke@buckweaver.bsky.social · last wk.Popped in to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame today and discovered the one and only baseball artifact they have — an Atlanta Braves jacket that Patti Smith wore on tour in 1976. Anyone know the story behind this?
Something I need to track down when off THE MAN’s time: According to Wiki, the UK publication Disc and Music Echo reviewed Revolver by having Ray Davies go through it song by song, and he was apparently not impressed
Bowiesongs (C. O'Leary)@bowiesongs.bsky.social · 18h agowhen i finally heard the UK version on CD, around age 16 or so, I got it---"OK, wow, this is a good one!" But I lacked the emotional connection that I had with the other records--it's the Beatles album I admire, am awed and fascinated by, but don't love

RIP to the famous magnolia tree that once stood in the outfield of Ponce de Leon Park. It fell down within the last day or so, evidently. It was more than 160 years old. Here are a few photos from a SABR Magnolia outing in 2022. Yes, this is the tree that gave the Atlanta chapter its name.
Andrew Mearns@mearns.bsky.social · 2d agonoooo the Old Poncey tree fell :( @buckweaver.bsky.social @rdavidk.bsky.social @ripmlb.bsky.social
somebody else's post just reminded me of a Cleveland rock figure I didn't think about even once while I was in town: Eric Carmen! I could have been walking in the footsteps of the man who wrote "Hey Deanie" and never knew it.
if the socials had existed in May 1935, the St. Louis Browns could have posted a photo of Bobo Newsom and the caption "thank you, bobo" and somehow this strikes me as the ROTFLest thing ever

Red Sox Nation Stats@rsnstats.com · 3d agoMore airline troubles for #RedSox getting out of California last night. The team didn't land in Boston until 11:30 this morning.
dream: in 20 years we’re all chattering about the WPBL trade deadline (and why no one seems able to catch the juggernaut Boston Hunters)
I heard this in my head the entire time I was walking around Cleveland these last few days - literally any time I was on a street - and now that I’m home it hasn’t turned itself off yet.
