“just don’t steal our money” and “don’t end up in federal prison” are the absolute minimum requirements for Illinois voters when picking a governor.

I’ve been thinking about this for a while now. He’s the perfect free agent add for a team that wants to be competitive and make money. Easiest path to 90+ wins & 3.2 million fans at Wrigley is giving Kyle Schwarber a bag.

I’m very much into this Bader idea. It’s sensible and it would keep him from being a pain in my ass while playing for another team.

I just don’t want the Cubs to be that one bad and expensive stretch of Phillies teams they had after they won their WS. I’m not here for that.

I’m on on Schwarber and Bregman. You wouldn’t have to work hard to talk me into Cease because if they can turn Boyd into an all-star, then they could get Cease back on track.

Let me get weird. Bo Bichette at 3B? Dustin May as Brad Keller 2.0?

but also, I don’t want them to spend just to spend because we’ve seen that work out poorly for so many teams and I’m not about that life.

we’re adding this to the list of “ok, so i didn’t properly process my mother’s death and didn’t know that would come back to haunt me years later.”

better late than never, i suppose

it’s funny to me that we got pope discourse today because, ironically, today was the 1st time i’ve discussed religion in therapy.

“yeah, so my mom died on ash wednesday and that’s a big deal because i still went to ash wednesday services that afternoon because that’s what i was raised to do.”

a poll idea that just popped into my head: since we've collectively been doing 90's nostalgia for awhile as a culture, what's your secret/stealth best 90's album? not something necessarily widely super critically beloved but is nonetheless great and defining for you?

I think I've written all I can about the Caleb Williams-Troy Aikman stuff.

Thankfully, I've saved my best for last.

the thing that intrigues me most about this is that my generation is the one that has left so many social media platforms behind. friendster. myspace. google+. tumblr. xanga. xuqa. i could go on. and yet, twitter still lives. kinda wild to think about in the grand scheme of things.
