Any time Mackenzie isn't on the screen, Samus should be asking, "Where's Mackenzie?"

Louis Varland has set MLB's all-time record with 15 pitching appearances in the same postseason.

Don't walk the leadoff hitter remains undefeated

Love me a good Django Django reference. Though this might be the only Django Django reference I’ve ever seen outside of my family.

Tonight's game was pretty similar to last night's game. Good scoring opportunities but good pitching shut down the rallies. It may be controversial to say, but I think one big difference between the two games is that tonight's game lasted nine innings while last night's game lasted fifteen innings.

I was disappointed that I got home tonight during the sixth inning. Thought I’d only get to watch the last three or four innings. I still saw ten innings worth of baseball!

Jorge!!!!

Pulp in Minneapolis tonight was legit one of the best shows I’ve ever seen. Jarvis Cocker is at the top of his game at age 62?

THAT SHOW is so fun! We get the stream every time it’s offered and keep finding new favorite comedians. Just good plain (weird) fun. Thanks, Chris, for offering the streaming option!

did you know there are a bunch of local mini print vending machines where you can get a handmade piece of original art for 50 cents or a buck? it's true! i chatted with the artists about what makes these machines so fun and why more of them are popping up:

"Ezra" My pre-schooler has a stuffed dragon named Ezra. Correction. He's got three stuffed dragons named Ezra. Only way to tell them apart is how worn the horns are. There's Ezra 1, Ezra 2 and Fluffy Ezra. What was I saying? Oh! Yeah. This is their portrait. #Art #Illustration #Painting #Rebelle

I’m going to assume this wasn’t purchased at the team store.

the jumbotron fallout continues

Honestly, this also gets us in line with the idea that pitcher Ws/Ls don't mean what they used to mean. The official scorer can decide which pitcher on the winning team was most responsible for the W, and which pitcher on the losing team most responsible for the L. New era for stats, but why not?

Help us raise money for @tigerrsmm.bsky.social this weekend!

"Triple Grackle" Some goofing around in the back yard. Me. Not them. But also maybe them. Who can say? #Art #Photograph

Not once, but TWICE!🏆 The @pwhlfrost.bsky.social defend their reign as 2025 Walter Cup champions!

Frost win!

KATY KNOLL WITH THE 3OT WINNER! 🗣️

"Pensive" 📷 Could not help but be struck by this person, sitting alone in this huge area in Grand Central Terminal, who was obviously in deep thought. Seems like all the cool kids are using hashtags I don't know anything about. So I'll just go with my usual and hope. #Photography #Art

THERE’S A FROST WARNING IN TORONTO It’s official - we’ll be facing off against the @pwhlsceptres.bsky.social in the PWHL Playoffs presented by SharkNinja. 🎟️ bit.ly/3Ytn0LY

Great Hold Steady show at First Ave tonight.

Home opener!

Ooooh, good reminder that I haven’t played this one in a bit. I highly recommend it if you’re into classic arcade single-screen fun! Will definitely drop some virtual quarters into it tonight.

Just about every Mario game has been my favorite the first time I played it, because there's always a sense of joy - throughout the whole game and especially in little details in the 3D games. SMB, 2, 3, World, 64, Sunshine, Galaxy, Galaxy 2, and Odyssey were each my favorite when they came out.

"All Aboard" See that on the tracks up ahead? That's Democracy. Sorry. Trying really hard [and failing] to be upbeat. Took this in Lancaster, PA quite a few years ago. #Art #Photography #BlackAndWhite

For real, am I the only one who hates AI? Because this sucks: thebloggess.com/2025/01/28/n...

The Twin Cities quickly stepped up to help TC Pride raise more than $60,000 to fill a funding gap without Target's sponsorship @startribune.com www.startribune.com/twin-cities-...

This is a great writeup! Gradius was my first NES game (aside from Super Mario Bros. which came with the system) and I have my dad to thank for it. He wanted to get me a game for Christmas and thought it looked cool. Revisiting the arcade version tonight on the Konami Arcade Classics Collection.

This morning after I put on my socks I looked down and the stitching made it look for a second like it said Hi! so I said hello and now I’m just a guy who talks to his socks, I guess.

Please give Raindrop Sprinters a shot! The perfect combo of "simple to learn, hard to master."

"Bela Bugosi" Although a much lesser known horror villain, I still felt fortunate to grab Bela Bugosi's autograph as writing isn't really in the mantis skillset. Any similarity to Bela Lugosi's signature is purely coincidental. #Art #Photography

I love me some Tetris but still have not dived into all of these. Just started with Tetris Forever and am loving it. Trying to watch doc footage before playing the games - should get easier as the month goes on...

Artwork for the 11th Annual Record Store Day, commissioned by Eclipse Records in downtown St. Paul. Metallic silver ink; looks great but clogs up the screen if you’re not careful.

Did you know that @nytguildtech.bsky.social created a few strike-related games that you can play guilt-free while respecting the picket line? For example, you can play Strikle! Or you can help Scabby cross 8th Avenue to the picket line guild-build.netlify.app

Always 💖 Don't make me tap the sign

I know it’s not over, but I’m getting ready to turn in for the night and thinking about all of the movies and shows and documentaries I watched growing up, painting the Big News Media as heroes for informing the American people and speaking truth to power. What happened to that?

Interesting to learn that being part of one of the greatest championship series in the history of sports does not actually make one feel any better about being a fan of the losing team. Loss still hurts. Good game/series/season Lynx!

OK...the NWS Bot collection is now fully populated and ready to go. I'm sure bugs will come up along the way, but I think it is 95%+ stable. There's an index page at nws-bot.us including a map (borrowed from NWS) to find the right bot for the area you want to follow.
