she’s a 10 but Excel thinks she’s October

Until owners open their books, the default assumption should be that they're making money hand over fist and they don't want the players to know it. And opening the books should mean cash flow statements for all affiliated entities, not just showing paper losses for the team.

Literally all of my friends at GW put up similar messages on AOL Instant Messenger.

That was my initial reaction as well.

The Blue Jays’ 23 runs are the most by a team in the first two games of a single postseason

That's a good suggestion as well.

So happy I went to a football game instead.

Did Cheers not air in Britain?

I have never enjoyed an MLB team more than this year’s Toronto Blue Jays team. At a time where domestic and world news hammers you down daily, they have provided me and my family with endless optimism and spirit. It doesn’t matter in the big picture but then again, it’s also everything.

A pattern has emerged in
@expedition33.bsky.social: "I should really go explore other areas... just *one* more battle in the Endless Tower." Rinse and repeat. :)

What are you playing?

Mario Kart World is extremely impressive so far. It looks gorgeous. The gameplay is very smooth. The courses are the most detailed in the series. It's a lot of fun and I've barely scratched the surface.

I feel like Nintendo has really hit it out of the park.

So, I picked up a Nintendo Switch 2 late last night and my initial impressions are extremely positive. The system itself feels good, and the OS (understandably) feels mature and polished.

Yeah, I have Game Pass, so I have access to all of them. :)

Should my first Elder Scrolls game be Oblivion Remastered, Skyrim, or other?

A feeble senate and enervated people cheerfully acquiesced in the pleasing illusion... They attacked the person of the tyrant, without aiming their blow at the authority of the emperor." -Edward Gibbon

"Augustus was sensible that mankind is governed by names; nor was he deceived in his expectation, that the senate and people would submit to slavery, provided they were respectfully assured that they still enjoyed their ancient freedom.

I am surprisingly addicted to wearing a wristwatch.

I still don't think Americans appreciate the degree to which Canada is in the midst of a total anti-American vibe shift.

We really want one for camping, but more seriously, we do love our Bolt.

I finished it recently and I don't understand the enthusiasm for it either. 4 and 6 are so much better.

I didn't mind the human violence, but I did not like the non-human violence.

Little known fact: The hamate bone's only biological purpose is to put baseball players on the IL.

💩’s about to get real down south.

“Mr. Bianco recently warned that Americans could face toilet-paper shortages and price hikes if tariffs came to pass.”

The U.S. is unlikely to put a tariff on their favourite metal, silver.

It would really resolve the whole Northwest Angle thing.

"Have you said thank you even once?"

I am really liking #Avowed.
