I just finished the new episode of Giants talk with @colemk.bsky.social & @alexpavlovic.bsky.social That final 30 minutes with Mike was just wonderful & not long enough. Go listen if you haven’t. We’ve been so lucky to have him in the booth these years. So lucky. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/g...

I can say with confidence that the person (or the parents who got the plates for the teen driving) spoke a truism as they did indeed what signal cut in front of me at an intersection I was driving through and had the right of way. 10/10 no notes.

Missed todays Giants game but I feel that after that meltdown busting out @lolknbr.bsky.social ‘s classic barf dumpster is in order.

A question for @susanslusser.bsky.social @andrewbaggarly.bsky.social and @alexpavlovic.bsky.social re: Mike Krukow’s announced retirement. It’s well known Kruk has THE ‘book’ on all the umps and their proclivities. Will he pass it/a copy on to Flem or the others in either the radio or tv booth?

It’s mid July and now it’s not raining in California but it’s muggy as all get out.

It’s mid July and it’s raining in California.

We'll show up Talarico by making the food mid at best. That'll just absolutely show up the campaign.

apparently in texas, paxton’s campaign is dunking on talarico by …giving out free tacos with talarico’s name on them, courtesy of “radical texas dot com”? whose idea was this, lol.

I love the county fair.

When I was little there was a commercial for Thomas' English Muffins on TV that said something to the effect "they're such a bargain". Little me took that their name was 'bargain'. That became their name in the house and what my parents and I have called them since.

merr-itt came from outer space@merrittk.com · 4mo ago

hit me with your hyperspecific friend or family slang. when i was a kid my friend once ate too many sour patch kids and then had some ketchup on fries and it was painful because of how acid blasted his tongue was. he told this story a few times, so "a ketchup story" came to mean an oft-repeated tale

Hey @colemk.bsky.social and @alexpavlovic.bsky.social Got a Giants Talk Q for you that feels relevant with our first 'big' call-ups of the year. For equipment & uniforms, who pays for what? Are the players on the hook for shoes, gloves, bats while the team handles uniforms/helmets/wearables?

I love discoveries like this and I think @mystupidrecords.bsky.social might as well.

Holy SHIT someone found the test pressing of Robert Johnson's Cross Road Blues and it is clear as a PIN www.openculture.com/2026/04/reco...

Oh so glad baseball is back.

And the fan rage after game 3 of the season about how the whole season is already over because they're 1-2 is unparalleled.

lauren@lauren.rotatingsandwiches.com · 7mo ago

baseball fans are a mere day away from getting to endlessly scrutinize, obsess over and fight about the entirely meaningless and largely symbolic 100-game start to the season

Seen? Ashamed? Not Sure what I should be feeling here but it’s definitely one of those two.

So so so good.

Hey @colemk.bsky.social and @alexpavlovic.bsky.social get me a file to print and I got you. Happy to make a stopgap / fill in for you to hand out if you wanted to carry any around. My fancy paper is a good paper for a handout flyer and I can pick up some good thick cardstock too.

Dealing with getting a new cell phone is just as bad as buying a new car and you can’t convince me otherwise.

Ah, new years… when you can’t tell if the neighbors suddenly shrieking and screaming coupled with bangs and booms are from fireworks and then celebrating or something bad is happening at their house.

Like three people will care, but it begins. Remember folks, the secret is more sauce. Moar. Sauce.

Did I just stumble into spoilers?!? Does this mean Strawberry returns to the best bowl? I can’t wait to see how they bring him back.

Son, she said, have I got a little story for you What you thought was your daddy was nothin' but a... While you were sittin' home alone at age thirteen Your real daddy was dyin', sorry you didn't see him, but I'm glad we talked... Oh I, oh, I'm still alive

So I’m catching up on @hyperfixedpod.bsky.social and just finished listening to the Apple episode while grocery shopping and my local grocery store doesn’t even carry the episodes subject matter anymore and I didn’t even notice it. That’s kinda funny @agoldman.bsky.social

I guess 10 PM is as good a time as any to make funfetti cupcakes.

Yeah, but did they pay for it with Klarna?

The mac & cheese recipe I've made for years is economical, filling and when made in the 2x config you'll be able to eat for a good while. Just need 1lb block cheese, 1 box pasta, some milk, flour and butter and about an hour. macandsteve.blogspot.com/2012/06/in-l...

A bunch of years ago I carved pumpkins of a game and franchise I’ve loved from the day Katamari Damacy released here in the US. Thank you @kt.uvula.jp and happy Halloween everyone!
