I had a weird dream with a lot going on, but the weirdest part was watching a soccer tournament and seeing that Inter Miami had signed Johnny Depp to replace Messi. He had a custom goal celebration song, an 80s tune with the chorus "That's just soccer baby / That's just soccer baaaabaaaaaaayyyyyyy".

A black cat and an orange cat, sprawled out back-to-back on a beige electric blanket that’s draped over a tan leather loveseat.

They sure do like our electric blanket. Well, their electric blanket I guess.

I’ll admit, the parts of the concession speech I heard were surprisingly classy.

I’m looking forward to the petulance in a weird sort of way. Something would feel so wrong about a dignified exit.

So do you think Harrell will finally bring himself to say Katie Wilson’s name in his concession speech tomorrow?

Or will he just demand a recount?

Oh, the suspense.

That playoff format is legitimately stupid.

The Sounders won one and drew two, and the other team advances.
The Sounders won on aggregate, any way you slice it.
Any tiebreaker you could devise, the Sounders win it.

This is an absolutely stupid format, and you can't convince me otherwise.

Offseason moves peeking around the corner 👀

Already voted for Andrew Thomas as my ECS POTY, no regrets of course. We were singing for him through the shootout at the Westy.

The Easter egg that comes up on Letterboxd when you add Bugonia to your log made me cackle.

It’s obviously going to swing much closer and has a good chance to break for Wilson as late votes get counted, but I don’t get that particular gap.

Who are all these weirdos who voted against Nelson and Davison but for Harrell??

Snow Cap, oh man yeah. Fireside Chat from 21st Amendment was a good one too. Been craving something dark to match the season lately.

"Trump now walks a red carpet of lawlessness, plutocracy and bloodshed woven by Cheney. An uncharismatic Nixon functionary [...] decisively shaped the destruction of constitutional governance in twenty-first-century America.

No hell is hot enough or eternal enough for Dick Cheney."

Are Chicago fans booing their own keeper? I don’t think I’ve ever seen that before. Probably justified though.

When it's us vs. them, you can always count on me.

Go home Minnesota, you’re drunk.

Really unfortunate choice there, but it did make me laugh quite a bit.

Watched Rogue One and came back to everyone talking about a poop plane. Don’t want to know, leave me out of this and also unrelatedly all men must die.

I went to a bar to watch the Sounders game today and my stupid nerve pain didn’t kill me. That’s progress.

These are not the matchday vibes I was hoping for.

I did an MRI and Autechre live about a week and a half apart. Should have had the MRI docs put Confield on in my headphones in stead of the awful “alt-rock” Muzak they gave me.

Maisie almost having a breakdown on stage due to rules rage? The awkward task?? The lamé duck prisoners’ dilemma task??? Taskmaster Season 20 Episode 5 was an all-time great.

A Washington state voters guide with the state flag on the cover, and a sticker with a parody version of the state flag, with Seattle Sounders midfielder Paul Rothrock replacing George Washington and the text “The seal of the state of we have Paul Rothrock, YNYA”.

Who wore it better?

Electronic music duo Autechre get ready to start their set in foggy red light at the Crocodile in Seattle.

*waves from across the room roughly 2 hours ago*

Leg pain be damned, I’m at the Crocodile for the early Autechre show. They gave me an accessible seat - essentially a tall chair at the side of the venue. It’s not much, but it’s helpful.

I somehow don’t know this one, and I want to.

Frei and Pepo had some words for their doubters. No better time for it than tonight.

It seems interesting but I only skimmed it because I was so mad at the headline!
