What a time to be alive

"You wanna go where everybody knows your name (but not your face)"?

TIL that I am not a normal-sized person.

The drunk uncle theory.

You don’t argue with the casually homophobic uncle at Thanksgiving dinner to change his mind; you argue so that the closeted cousin at the kids table knows there’s safe people and better possibilities out there

Goddamn, this beats fascism.

Includes my alma mater and both universities that have employed me! Hat trick!

An elementary school class wrote to Ozzie Albies for recommendations for fish for their new class pet

He showed up and taught them how to take care of it, set everything up and gifted them one of his own fish

Baseball is the best

Since the early days of the space program, astronauts have quarantined before missions because any illness could be disastrous. It’s eminently logical — not “extreme” — for athletes who’ve trained their WHOLE LIVES for one event to take similar precautions in order to stay in peak physical condition

this is the kind of thing the label "independent thinker" should actually apply to

Pro: will be especially appropriate to wear around Twins games in Fort Myers!
Con: Minimal anonymity as it literally has my name on the sleeve.

I realize it's not like they went to a clearance sale at Spirit, but wow, those look sharp!

Congress Must Act Now More constitutional outrage in Minnesota.

“There are many responses to the Pretti killing to undertake from many quarters. But above all, it’s the immediate responsibility of Congress. It is now a clarion call of a generation. Congress must answer it, swiftly, fully, and fearlessly.”

This. A handful of Americans have the power to stop this NOW, and they are refusing to.

I don’t want to hear anything from an elected official unless it’s a plan to defund the DHS and impeach Noem, Bovino, etc. No texts. No emails. No talk about the economy. Step up or step off.

I don’t know why this is so hard for people but people you have to repeatedly call and beg to ask them to oppose murder in the streets will never really be on your side

Even with the reading glasses the "(25-34)" threw me for a second there. 🥶

That could work. I have been known to use extra moo shi pancakes as hot dog wrappings...

Manny Ramirez stands in uniform in the Red Sox dugout and gazes with seemingly equal parts wonder and amusement at the brown baseball glove on his left hand that is roughly the size of his torso.

Maybe the cap goes with this glove.

This seems a bit challenging as a top split side-by-side arrangement--should be able to use the sub rolls they have on hand for sausages. Maybe a concourse-only option, not in the seating bowl.

This shot from NFL Films is unbelievable

I love how often @universalhub.com offers proof that there's no need to be clickbait-y--you can spell the whole story out and folks will still want to click through.

Tom Caron, Bill Mueller and Mike Timlin sit on tall chairs on the stage at Fenway Fest; Mueller is speaking, gesturing with his left hand, as TC and Timlin beam at him.

Nilson “Junior” Pepén, Trevor Story, Ceddanne Rafaela, and Carlos Narváez sit on tall chairs on the stage at Fenway Fest. All are smiling as Narváez replies to a question posed by an audience member.

Red Sox pitching coach Andrew Bailey, pitchers Garrett Whitlock, Brayan Bello, and Aroldis Chapman, and translator Carlos Villoria all smile as they sit on a panel on the stage at Fenway Fest.

Red Sox PA announcer Henry Mahegan and Red Sox alumni of the 1986 team Bob Stanley, Dwight Evans, Wade Boggs and Jim Rice appear on the stage in a panel at Fenway Fest. Stanley is speaking with his index finger raised and everyone else has burst out laughing.

There's a lot to love about the @RedSox Fenway Fest--my own favorite part is always the panel discussions. Nice to see so many smiles!
