50501: The People’s Movement ❌👑 @50501movement.bsky.social · 7h

The Portland Frog army has now infiltrated Tulsa, OK and they’ve made an unlikely alliance with the T-Rex infantry and Sharks on Hoverboards mercenary forces.

This is truly terrifying.

A better question is “name an Italian LESS worthy than Columbus and why does this list only have Mussolini”

name an italian more worthy of an american holiday than columbus

This feels like they’re throwing a perfect game and we’re trying hard not to say it much less think it

And the Jays are 0-2 since Cal Raleigh Buttplug T-Shirt Guy showed up to Rogers Center to watch Cal Raleigh smash a homer in front of him

I can’t believe the Mariners got out of Toronto with a 2-0 lead. Holy crap, it might actually be happening. Maybe. Or maybe not.

And now we see which Emerson Hancock shows up, the one who can mop up, or the one who makes a total mess of it

7 runs in six outs? It can happen

And this is what being a Mariners fan is like, expecting the most ridiculous version of the worst all the time

Seattle is going to be bonkers this week if they escape with this 2 games to none lead

Also, baseball players are generally creatures of habit on the road. They are going to eat the same thing and avoid novelty

Well, Montreal moved to DC in 2005 and it’s only been a thing in Toronto since the 2010s

No, it’s heaven

Well, helps when the offense shows up 🤪

I don’t care if it’s petty. I don’t care if it isn’t nice. We absolutely will not move on until we agree that you just repeated what I said in your own words and are calling that a criticism. Nope. I am not scheduled for a zoom until tomorrow. I got all day.

I'll also say Wilson is abysmal at managing the bullpen. It's Piniella-esque -- going back to the well one too many times, quick on the hook without consideration of future games

Dylan Wilbanks @dylanw.social · 9h

I mean, Gilbert got pulled too, but I think part of that is he threw 3 innings on Friday

If they go all the way, Polanco won't pay for a drink in this town ever again

And now we have reached that time in Seattle where the house is getting cold but you don’t want to turn on the heat just yet so it’s a weeks long struggle between “higher power bill” and “just one more sweater”

Oh we posting brassica memes?

Ladies Get you a fella who can do it all

And it's a illustration showing the wild version of Brassica oleracea with arrows pointing to different vegetables it had been bred into.

Cabbage, selection for terminal buds. Brussels sprouts, selection for lateral buds. Kohlrabi, selection for stem. Kale, selection for leaves. Broccoli, selection for stems and flowers. Cauliflower, selection for flower clusters.

And then you go into your password manager to change old ones and you have 250+, most from apps you only used once 10 years ago… there’s just too much comm cruft

Looking at this again… he has to be the most miserable boss to work for, throwing out bad ideas and insisting people work on them

Downtown could have "like, a 10-foot wall" where people could talk to AI versions of historical figures. "How cool would this be if we had like, a 10 foot wall. It's interactive and it's historical. And you could talk to Martin Luther King."...

So when it’s a stump speech, it’s all optimism and Trumpian everyone is against me. When it’s a debate it’s darkness, doom, and Sit Yourself Down There Little Missy

Big clueless CEO energy there, Mr Mayor.
