You can tell a True Wife Guy then by the way he never *tells you* he’s a wife guy. This is really the truest distinction: if you can tell a guy truly loves his wife, then he’s a Wife Guy. If he has to tell you, then he’s a Wife Guy *eye roll*. Anyway, hope this helps 5/5

Haha we’ve got a clogged sink and we are rolling the dice sometime soon with ‘will unclogging it break a pipe and everything that will lead to’ which is in that same vein. At some point we are going to remodel which will more or less only be getting everything up to code.

lol I did remember there was a third (non twin) after I posted, so consider this officially meaning a set of triplets rather than twins.

lol yeah, exactly. In this case instead of making holes large enough to be standard they sort of just didn’t? So I’ve been slowly trying to increase the size to make things fit and align and I’m just over it

The combination of me *knowing* I’m not handy and the previous home owners *thinking* they were handy makes even the smallest project—like replacing a doorknob—and absolute living hell.

New people on Bluesky, welcome. This is the most important podcast you can listen to. These words all make sense to everyone else here.

Tech CEO and kitchen oaf Rachael Leigh Cook gets Hallmark-wasted, Leans Out, and, with the help of Bobby Bacala's calzone triptych, learns that McKinseying her little sister's love life only puts her in the path of wine clowns.

Note to self: probably a better idea to do home repairs sober.

Kids do stupid things, and then they're supposed to get in trouble and face consequences so they don't do the stupid shit anymore.

Trying to live my life in a way that when I die people only have nice things to say about me

Hell yeah

Also grateful to have found a pet sitting service with the patience and care to deal with this handful. @wraithmetal.bsky.social and their company has been absolutely invaluable in helping us feel like we can go live our life without worrying about these two while we are away.

Every day I’m grateful I found two dogs that care for each other like this two do

I’d say I’m good at good at being sneaky, but I’m about as conspicuous as they come. I may have to move now.

Ordered a salad for lunch and then walked to the place next door and ordered a corn dog: I think this does a good job of illustrating where I am emotionally right now.

back at @lookoutlanding.bsky.social for a day, because eduard bazardo rules. his numbers, pre- and post-change:

xERA: 70th to 77th percentile
Strike%: 43rd to 92nd

Lookout Landing @lookoutlanding.bsky.social · 12h

The world has gotten to know Eduard Bazardo in these playoffs. But the Mariners’ fiery Venezuelan reliever wasn’t always this guy.

@ajeto.bsky.social is back to tell you how Seattle found its stopper. www.lookoutlanding.com/mlb-postseas...

Eduard Bazardo Has Been a Life Raft

The unheralded Venezuelan mixed up his pitch mix midseason and has become invaluable for the Seattle Mariners.

This is great. I'll take all the Remember Some Guys-style interviews with character actors that you've got, and this is an especially good one.

Luckily they don’t taste that way, but they taste _just_ off enough to create an uncanny valley effect that I find entirely off putting. Meanwhile they’re everyone in DC’s favorite donut, so what do I know.

Mack @wifeguy.org · 13h

I’m sorry, but I refuse to recognize a ‘vegan donut’ as an actual donut. What you have produced is an abomination.

10/15/15, Howard Unruh’s “Walk of Death” story @smithsonianmag.bsky.social. Labor Day 1949, he murders 13, including a 6-year old. 2018, an escapee’s granddaughter survives Parkland.

I’ve forgotten a million words but this one haunts me. We’ve done nothing.
