B.C. baseball's civil war — do you root for the Blue Jays or the Mariners? Best-of-seven American League Championship Series starts Sunday and the winner of the set advances to the World Series

Good piece from @steve-ewen.bsky.social on local baseball loyalties. theprovince.com/sports/baseb...

ICE goons can just come in your house and kill your family pet now.

I was already a hard AI-skeptic but this cements my long suspicion that there is no feasible path to anything close to return on invested capital for these data centers. Tech would need 15 to 25 times current AI revenues within the next 2-3 years just to break even. Not financially viable.

You buried the lede. Your dog can talk?

The sheer joy of sports BlueSky right now is making me smile. This is what social media is supposed to be.

Do the Mariners even get to guzzle champagne with such a quick turnaround

Has somebody tried hitting the base ball over the fence

Have to beat traffic back to Everett.

baseball is the best preparation for death because it does not come with a clock that tells you when your suffering will end one way or the other

It is October 2028. The Seattle Mariners and Detroit Tigers are still playing the divisional round playoff game that began in 2025. The rest of the MLB decided to continue on without them and start a whole new league.

For Halloween?

hoping going through this means labor will feel comparatively short and painless

Every shot of this Seattle crowd I see the classic PNW couple of “Librarian lady and mechanic man”

I saw this, laughed, changed screens and now I can't find it again or I would credit it fully: Someone described Kid Rock, who was apparently attempting to opine on something tonight, as being "the human equivalent of an above-ground pool."

Perfect.

Reminds me of someone …

Do they make a seedless variety?

Social climbers.
