Yes. This account is about politics & science & frustration with the entire world devaluing the safety & well-being of others

But it's also about my innermost thoughts & my reality of multiple mental health challenges & a severe lack of help

It's not me complaining. It's me trying to survive

Beats watching the Blue Jays pull a pitcher, not because he's doing badly but because he's young and inexperienced. They did it in the Yankees series and almost blew a 12 run lead. Today it was a tied game and the bullpen turned it into a 7 run loss.

Trey deserves better

People tell me they'd miss me if I ended my life and yet here I am alone, expected to be happy with survival rather than living.

I gave up decades ago.

When China, with all it's issues including slavery, takes the moral high ground...

I have no kids, on purpose. I didn't want to leave this planet to them and I didn't want to pass my mental illnesses on to them.

But I have kids I care about and I'm terrified as to what we're leaving them.

Quick.

Someone explain to me why Keifer Sherwood is on the 4th line.

I have a memory of when Marcus Naslund was pushing for 50 goals while on a line with a tough guy with good hands.

Makes me wonder what would happen if the Canucks gave him a shot with Pettersson for ten or 12 games this season.

As Canada celebrates their Thanksgiving Day (aka Indigenous Peoples Day part 2) let us remember that even on a day all about colonization we can still have well written TV shows about it

My thoughts are that the bullpen hasn't been there for him in either of his playoff starts. They either trust him or they don't & need to make up their minds.

Disorderly Borderline 🇨🇦 @disorderlybrdrline.bsky.social · 18h

So, why do the Blue Jays keep pulling Trey Yesavage out before he's done? The bullpen hasn't been there for him in either game he started.

So China is threatening the US, Israel is threatening everyone in the middle east and Russia is threatening even more countries.

This feels like every nightmare I had in the 80s when I was sure nukes were coming.

Now that the hostages are back, how long before Netanyahu bombs gaza?

I've been anosmic for about 15 years, the after effect of years of tooth decay, so I hear ya. My favourite thing in the world used to be the smell of vanilla. Now I can't even smell it.

As far as the recipe for any kind of tacos, i'm your man.

I think he looks kinda like the sniveling president from 24.

It's amazing!!!! The tougher the meat, the better. That's why chuck roasts and osso buco are so good. Just have to braise it to tenderize. I have a lb of heart in my freezer just for tacos.

It's like short ribs. Totally worth the wait. I mean look at these I made last night.

I'd go with Porgy and Bess.

Gershwin insisted only black actors play the parts and got a hell of a lot of slack for standing up to critics. This premiered in 1935, before Jesse Owens sunned the world and wasn't allowed to meet the president.

It was groundbreaking and needs to be remembered more.

And MAGA hates him for it. I've seen a couple of fox news clips where they tear him down after he died. One that stuck in my mind was someone saying that he turned getting a bowl of soup into a holy crusade or something.

All I know is I never would have tried tongue tacos without him.

You gotta give ‘em hop.

A tweet from the Anonymous account says, “Make sure the dude in the frog costume in Portland knows he's an icon.” The image is a stylized poster of a frog wearing a stars-and-stripes scarf with the word “HOP” below, in the style of the Obama “HOPE” poster.

Just a reminder to those celebrating Columbus Day in America.

He was a dick.

And MAGA wants you to ignore the truth and believe the lie about him.

"We are anti-fascists!!"
*Then you're an anti-government terrorist organization.*

"We say no to kings!!"
*Then you get no money and no government.*

When I left christianity I realized it was basically an abusive relationship. Now all these people already in one are begging for another.

Damn. Just saw the "measles" reference

That's AI created so I'm wondering if that's actually true and they just got lazy or if it's fake and somebody just got lazy.

The problem is you can't tell anymore. It's like no matter how crazy a religious claim sounds there's always a possibility that somebody actually believes it.

2nd inning and the Blue Jays are already on their second trip through the order.

Mariners are going to find out in the later innings how dangerous it is to let Toronto get this many at bats.
