screenshot from the TV show Columbo. the titular character Columbo is shown standing at the edge of a driveway, looking down at golden retriever who is happily basking on the pavement in front of him. the subtitles read: "You're a real friendly boy, aren't you? Oh, you're a girl."

thinking about this screenshot from Columbo that makes it look like a 90s point-and-click adventure game

How can we know that for sure Jon? Strip and spread 'em.

i like nonstick teflon pans bc they operate on magic talisman logic: safe to use if you know the rules, but if you abuse its power it will break down and leach poison into your body

i've never seen a baseball player break up a double play by leaping into the air, spinning 180 degrees, and taking the throw to the back of the dome. it was perhaps the most beautiful thing i have ever witnessed

Documentarians on why the Mariners are the ‘weirdest, most outrageous team in the history of sports’ With the Mariners battling the Toronto Blue Jays in the ALCS, we spoke to the directors of the team's unofficial documentary about why the M's are special.

Thanks to Alex Rubenstein and, of course, @jonbois.bsky.social for talking to me about making what not only remains the essential portrait of the team, the city, the state, & the country half a decade later, but most certainly will for many more decades to come 📽️
