My daughter is at the Mariners game. According to her they have never lost when: 1) she’s wearing her Ichiro jersey, 2) she’s wearing her M’s pride cap, 3) she’s had her copy of Infinite Jest with her, or 4) she’s gotten food at the park. She’s doing all 4 today - let’s go Mariners! 🔱⚾️

Right back at ya ❤️

Having the inverse conversation from Monday, aren’t we? 😞

Ah, the Mariners giving us the disaster we knew was coming. As they do.

100% facts

I’m sorry you’re seeing that but a lot of us love our Ms without being mean about it, I promise. I was just telling a friend in Toronto that if we weren’t playing you we’d be rooting for you!

Hey you know watching the Blue Jays destroy the Yankees was an absolute gift so we love you for that no matter what 😊

You know I love all my Toronto people! If we weren’t playing you I’d be rooting for you!

I really didn’t think we’d be coming home 2-0 in the ALCS. Was hoping we could keep it to 1-1. This is unreal. I don’t even know what to do with myself. Go Mariners! 🔱

I’ve been watching the Mariners from the very beginning. I was 6 when I went to my first game, and my heart has been with them ever since (and it’s been broken so many times!). I’ve built a family of M’s fans. With everything being pretty terrible, we’re finding our spot of joy with this team. 🔱⚾️

Which was cool of her; she made sure my mom didn’t miss anything. But also - people are seeing this movie three times in the theaters. That says so much.

My mom got up to leave when the credits started. The woman next to her reached her hand out and said, “No, you want to stay. This is my third time seeing it, trust me.”

I managed to hear almost nothing about Sinners except that I should go see it (on purpose). It was SO GOOD! SO GOOD

I do very much enjoy the Tom Holland Umbrella performance, don’t get me wrong. But every time my husband gets up and makes me a coffee I fall in love all over again, haha

This, 100%, is the hottest thing.

A toddler wearing a Bruce Lee t-shirt holds his mother’s hand. She is wearing sunglasses and is watching him. He is smiling at the camera.

A young man looks at the camera with a slight smile on his face. He has a grey and black stocking cap on, white earbuds in, clear framed glasses, and a black jacket with bomber-style zippers.

Happy birthday to Riley, my first baby. For those who have known me a long time, he turns 27 today. Enjoy feeling old along with me 😭

Wait what? Who does that??

Concert shot of Clipping. They are wearing Mariners jerseys. You can see the crowd in silhouette. The image projected on and behind the band is red and white, digitized looking.

Amazing show! Plus they were repping my beloved Mariners, so it was basically a perfect night.

Haha

This is me, too.
Trying to keep your child safe without letting them see you panic, all day, every day. It takes so much out of us.

Haha it’s maror but it was pretty mild so I found myself using a lot. My mom was remembering that her Bubbie grew her own horseradish and had to grate it outside because it made everyone’s eyes water. This was not like that 😂

Leftovers. iykyk

Yes! And this whole album is so freaking brilliant.

I explain this to all my students!

😂

It’s never like, the PLAN. But sometimes I just never quite get to it an keep wearing the thing anyway. 🤷🏻‍♀️

After washing/blocking… or *whispers*…never 😬

I have permanent vision loss in one eye because of shingles, so I already tell everyone to get the vaccine whenever it comes up (and sometimes even if it hasn’t!) - I’ll add this to my rap!
