I’m happy for the Brewers’ fans. Something about their joy feels pure.

It was actually my therapist who first showed me that 😂

This! My nephew told me last week that he'd deleted social media from his phone. "It was turning into a hobby," he said. "I didn't want it to be my hobby."

Thanks!

Thank you for responding!

Really I just want all these series to go to five games.

It is aspirational.

a woman with long curly hair is looking at a man with a beard . Alt: Cher, in "Moonstruck," slaps Nicolas Cage and tells him to SNAP OUT OF IT.

I'm supposed to go on vacation tomorrow. It is so contrary to my nature that I was paralyzed with anxiety earlier tonight, until I called my sister (who is coming on vacation with me) and she told me to cut it out.

Thank you for this.

Thank you!

Metro just offloaded an entire Blue line train at Arlington Cemetery. The conductor said the train would be going back to Largo. Metro is single-tracking now between Pentagon City and National Airport. Anyone know why?

I got a $200 rebate check from the Commonwealth of Virginia that I did not expect, and it’s going straight into an emergency rental assistance fund because I wish that’s what the state had done with it.

I dunno — I expected a lot, and it’s *still* more than I expected.

I too miss the sheer randomness of pitchers hitting, especially in the postseason.

I definitely feel this way about extra innings—the ghost runner is an abomination, if the teams have earned extra innings they should play on. But I like the pitch clock more than I thought I would.

Not even the pitch clock?

If and when America finds a way out of authoritarianism, not only will ICE have to be abolished: All these people will need to be held accountable in a court of law for the monstrosities they are committing - those who are ordering them as well as those who are carrying them out.

Every single one.

Me, reading today's headlines: Damn, how do I get to fail upward?
Also me, immediately after: What, you think you haven't?

Kyle Finnegan's hair does not look as good under a Tigers cap as it did under a Nationals cap.

Damn, that Seattle stadium got quiet.

Note: 6 of the 9 SCOTUS justices are Catholic, and for the first time as far I as I can remember, not a single justice was present at today’s Red Mass in DC.

It's only the fourth inning!

It would be so beautiful for Toronto to win this year's World Series.

Where are the commanding officers of those sailors in the background. How are they letting this happen?

The problem with using AMI as a criterion for local assistance is that the less affordable an area gets, the higher AMI gets — the poorer people have moved further out.

And in short, I was afraid.

I would like to see Victor Robles get to the World Series as a Mariner.

Really, it's like choosing between e. coli and botulinum . . .

It feels like the announcers are rooting for the Dodgers, though, which makes me oppositional.
