Had so much fun winning the West last night I went back and relived the other three times the Mariners have won the American League West Division Championship. It's a brief history, but a fun history!

I also love this picture so much, there was no question which one would be the main photo!

From 19 long years of frustration to a 24-year drought, a celebration of Seattle Mariners division championships.

This is incredibly hard, and I come with no expectations. But my family needs help. We need it fast, by this Wednesday, or we will be homeless with no options. If you can help, please do. We just want to keep our family together and safe. #mutualaid #helpsky

Oh, that’s fascinating! I think my issue is just that my ADHD makes me bored of watching after a while.

They have also tied their win total from their last ALCS appearance 😏

I know the rest of the games won’t be like that; Blue Jays are gonna put up a huge fight. But that was fairly low stress and weirdly normal after the last game!!

See everyone, that’s why you don’t freak out about a lead off home run. Bet you all feel veeeeerrey silly. Definitely not me. Nope, nope, no catastrophizing over here. No siree.
