Goddamnit

Okay, about as much fun as MY average dentist appointment

That was about as much fun as your average dentist appointment #COYS

I finally get to watch a whole game of my team, and I get a flaccid performance and a 1-0 home defeat to our crosstown rivals. 😖 what did I do to deserve this #COYS

It’s not that #Spurs have brought a knife to a gunfight. It’s more like we brought a butter knife to a knife fight. #COYS

Yeah, no creativity or edge on the attack. Injuries, I guess, in terms of Maddison for playmaking. Solanke is a goal scorer but not a creator

Look, I’m Spurs till I die, but it was a bad challenge. Lucky they didn’t send the ref to the VAR screen. We’re getting outplayed and I don’t like it

Bentancur lucky to still be on the pitch. #COYS

Derek Wood @derekdwood.bsky.social · 2d

Same damn thing from my #Spurs. Lack of attacking ideas, concede from eventual defensive mistake. No spark. #COYS

“Aw shit, I was really looking forward to not showing up for that.”

It may be Halloween tonight, but tomorrow is my friends Lotti and John’s 30th annual Halloween Party/Anarchic Horror-Fest. The feature presentation (which I gotta admit I’m kinda looking forward to):

When it comes to murdering fishermen on the high seas, Donald is lawless and careless, but when it comes to finding excuses not to feed Americans, he's a precise bureaucrat, obsessed with following the law.

I find that the documentary category is one of a very few, if not the only, category in which the Academy very often rewards films that are undeniably quite good

We would never dislike your spicy text paroxysms, Sarah 😉

Such a waste of an incredibly talented person. She and her mom trusted a guy who was a predatory POS. And he let her die.

Watched the “What Happened, Brittany Murphy?” documentary on HBO max, and very much feel like I need a shower

Can't overstate how fucked up it is that unraveling what is arguably the greatest achievement in the history of humanity is now a motivating issue of one of the two dominant parties in the U.S.

FL is moving forward w/ plan to end all childhood vaccine mandates. Starting with hepatitis B, chickenpox, and the bacteria causing meningitis and pneumonia. Then next year GOP FL legislature is expected to revisit 1977 law re: whooping cough, measles, polio, rubella, mumps, diphtheria, and tetanus.

there are going to be a lot of stories in the next couple weeks about the generosity of ordinary people in helping their fellow Americans and all of them will be wonderful and none of them should be necessary

we don’t have to have a government this cruel and capricious

In non-baseball thoughts: the scene in the latest season of The Diplomat where the British PM has workmanlike missionary sex with his wife while she says “vigorous” … I was like, that needs to be a GIF, but i guess it probably won’t be
