For all my fellow #Swifties, I have a project on Taylor’s life & work. Before the #ErasTour, I began a slide deck for some family & friends who weren’t familiar with all the lore & Easter eggs. It’s evolved into “the folklore of Taylor Swift” 🫶🏻

The line “if I loved you less I might be able to talk about it more” is one of her best lines but that doesn’t make it her best novel.

Henry Tilney seemed like the only one of her heroes I could actually imagine marrying. So witty!!

2) A condescending lack of agency given to the Mariners. Our wins are not framed as our successes but others' failures.

Debate question number 1: Who is the Mariners’ post-season MVP?

send me pics of where you are watching the mariners game. my nurse friend just sent me a picture of how they're using an empty patient room across from the nurses station so they could use the tv to screen the game

This Mariners team lacks many qualities of traditional Mariner teams. Things like ennui, hauntedness, self-loathing, gnawing doubt, obliviousness. They have none of those yet they are finding ways to win.

Probably Jorge Polanco.

Thank you!! Other pet peeves…
- they claimed Cal has “forced his way in to the MVP conversation” as if he hasn’t led the league in HRs since, what, June? May?
- they keep referring to SODO as “South of Downtown” 😑😡🤬

I’m not trying to give @pbs.org ideas for raising money—but I am. I would buy women’s fit T-shirts of all my favorite childhood shows. Reading rainbow, 321 contact, square one, zoobiliee zoo. I feel like two generations will run to donate even more money for shirts with Levar Burton on them…

I would have considered the “thank you for the lovely bouquet” tee if it wasn’t such a godawful color. Maybe would’ve considered the claw clip too but I have short hair 😆

As a wise woman (me) once said (right now) check out small business for their merch options you might find something cute you like there!
