ICE using the same ruse that Ted Bundy used to kidnap people should tell you something.

A large portion of the male figure skaters this year look like long-lost Hanson brothers.

Finally! This is something umpires have been requesting for years now.

I engage with pop culture probably at least slightly more than most people. I had no idea there were any trailers releases at all. Just an absolute crumbling of a media empire.

Max was the first position player back at the stadium in the off season and has been putting in the work. Happy to see our werewolf staying where he belongs.

Some of the most fun sports are the ones that feel like they originated during a night of heavy drinking on a dare. Curling, biathlon, pretty much anything involving hurtling down a mountain.

I feel like every Olympics there’s a new ice skating term used that everyone pretends we all know and it’s a very silly word to describe something fundamental to the sport and I love it. Twizzle me hard, ice people.

CHOCK AND BATES!!!!!! WOW WOW WOW

Omg, that Starry Night performance was absolutely amazing! I got choked up right along with them.

The US Women’s Hockey team is terrifying. They have scored twenty goals in this Olympiad so far. Their opponents? One.

At this point, I’d let Noah Wyle perform open heart surgery on me before I’d let RFK sneeze in the same room as me.

If I was a skater and Johnny Weir called me “puppy paws” I’d die for both happy and devastated reasons.

I must admit, most of my sports references are falling short of the usual engagement but I’m currently tied for winning the universe so far. It will not last.

Y’ALL ALL NEED TO WATCH PALM ROYAL RICKY MARTIN IS DELIGHTFUL IN IT PLUS CAROL BURNETT ALLISON JANEY AND SO MANY MORE

It’s higher than my Bacon number so far at least. Considering I spent 20 years in film and TV, that’s a pretty big relief. ….so far.

breathtaking

Well, I guess that's SOME of the story. BTW, I didn't smile, I scream-cried in frustration in my kitchen.

Every day is a tug of war between refusing to give ground in a space that women and queer people have fought for and just a lot of bullshit.

Just did a very important thing I've needed to do for about 4 months and it only took about 14 minutes and I feel literally lighter in my soul. I will not learn from this.

*bumbumbum* "ONE EIGHT SEVEN SEVE-"

Maury Wills doesn’t steal 104 bases and win MVP without Jim Gilliam hitting behind him and taking pitches. Gilliam was the blueprint for a super utility man, a fantastic teammate who became a beloved coach. He’s the retired number people don’t know nearly enough about.

They changed the layout of our Ralph’s again.

Tonga Hut Nite

Slept terribly, running on white Monsters, a microwave burrito, and spite. Fanfest, LFG.

Tungsten Arm O’Doyle was only slightly parody.

1/29: San Fernando Valley today, be on alert! Confirmed seen in Panorama City, Van Nuys, and one other unconfirmed report of a sighting in Tujunga Canyon.

"The more things change, the more they stay the same" reposting an article from 1939 with people complaining about how the Dodgers are ruining baseball. Yeah, a great year to pull history from awesome rad cool.

June 26, 1939. The Dodgers were a joke. They called 'em the Flatbush Follies, the Daffy Dodgers, and other not-so-loving-nicknames. Then they pulled some (literal) stunts and got good because of the money it brought in. They would go on to win the pennant in 1941. Oldtimers gonna oldtime.

I was gonna say ain't it funny how words change meaning over the years but then I thought hmm wonder what Rickey looked like younger and OK YES I SEE THE VISION.

Photo selection master class

Corner of Vin Scully and Stadium Way, Dodger Stadium.

This is to specifically try and prevent black glove moments.

Seeing people complain about something and they don’t even know they should be complaining EVEN MORE about it but yes drag them through the mud take them down keep going everyone there is stupid incompetence personified.

DTLA

The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call “symbolic compliance.” That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.

Winter mornings in Los Angeles. Fuck ice, long live sunshine.

I do think that a possibly underrated dynamic in The Horrors is that the Right as it has reconstituted itself under Trump legitimately can’t understand sincere moral or physical courage

I spilled my coffee all over me while at the bus stop and now I’m sticky and smell like hazelnut and honestly it’s refreshing to have a bad morning for a truly banal reason instead of *points everywhere*

Heated Rivalry (2025)

Song of the day is Dr. Dog's Where'd All The Time Go?

Every time something goes even a little bit viral, I have to spend too much time blocking bots. I absolutely do NOT have that many actual followers and my block to keep ratio of new “followers” is like 15 to 1. Bots are so bad here.

A dozen plus reporters at the stadium to cover the signing of a multimillionaire. Not one single reporter covered how the Tours union was successfully busted today. Baseball labor isn’t just about the players.

Group one was about 75ish grade schoolers eating lunch and high on getting waves from Ohtani AND Muncy. They loudly informed Tucker he would hit 50 home runs this year. He waved at them so the pact is sealed. Group two is us Tours folk seeing “23” and going HMMMMMM.

I wonder if one single reporter has the balls to ask why the Dodgers are engaging in union busting today.

I’m not religious, but my breakfast reminds me of the biblical story of loaves and fishes, how if we share there can be enough for all. An ironic meal on the day my union might get dissolved because of selfishness and greed.

Kinda glad I missed The Turnaround because I feel like that much hope dying inside might just take me along with it right now.

Reiterating the idea that the Hall of Fame should be in a bigger, more accessible city so that more fans could have the opportunity boo an inductee for cheating in person.

When you thought you put a Cat Sebastian book in your bag for the day but it’s actually a Gil Hodges biography.
