I am just very happy for Team Venezuela and its fans. What a triumphant victory to win their first WBC title. 🇻🇪 🇻🇪 🇻🇪

No more apropos guy to be the final out of a dying empire than a Roman.

lol, again and again

GENOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Just figured out where I've seen the Team USA pitcher before reservationdogs.fandom.com/wiki/Kenny_Boy

Settling in for the World Baseball Classic final

I've enjoyed this record, and heavy and nasty are good descriptors of its sounds

!!! I had no idea that the cat who played Jones was named Boris when I named my new rescue kitten Boris in 2006, but it fits together perfectly because 1) I have always loved the Alien movies, and 2) my own Boris could really be an asshole, too

wait, fuck, this is gorillaz

Today I'm exactly halfway on my journey between ages 46 and 47. And like every other day, I'm gonna go through it with absolutely zero introspection, as God and Marc Andreeson intended

We hear “stick to sports” too much, but let’s be clear here: Team USA itself refused to stick to sports, eschewing representation of so much great American culture for, uh, Da Troops and nothing else.

Venezuela wins, advances to face Team USA in the WBC finals tomorrow!

Jose Altuve looking possessed in the seats for the Venezuela-Italia game!

The WBC is amazing? Correctamundo!

I found this guide to doing a clean install of Windows 11 to make it less bloated, less stupid, and faster. The author seems to know what they're talking about, and I think I'm going to give it a try. Cautiously. www.dedoimedo.com/computers/wi...

My entire timeline tonight

Mar 15th 1947 - It was around this time that former baseball pitcher Morris Buttermaker claims he struck out Ted Williams. 📽️📅 The Bad News Bears (1976)

Is not tomorrow, boy, the ides of March?

i actually think it's lowkey problematic to joke about stabbing caesar bc for some low income senators becoming tyrant is literally the only route out of poverty

Sad to see the Ides of March becoming commercialised like this. I really feel like we're losing track of the true spirit of the holiday. It's not about how many knives you can stick in a tyrant all at once, it's about the whole community coming together to stab the tyrant as many times as possible.

el punk no está muerto

Best 28 minutes of my day

Somebody should definitely NOT prank order a massive delivery of Dominican food to Team USA's clubhouse tomorrow. That would not be funny at all.

Picking up subtle signals that I should watch the end of Japan-Venezuela in the WBC

This is obviously not the question, but I often think back to high school and ask myself, "How the hell was I *listening* to Everclear???" Like, on CDs I purchased with my own cash money, not just on KNDD 107.7 FM "The End"

New from me in @mcsweeneys.net!

I think I figured it out. The real Cal Raleigh was replaced by a synth before the WBC. Really explains a lot.

Victor Frankenstein was really just fretting about his creation's mental well-being

If your Naylor be Bo, behind home plate he'll go If your Naylor be Josh, a Seattle dog he'd nosh

Extremely impressed that Sven and Freya made a snowperson

Canadian pitcher Macko just failed the Turang test

When I stayed a couple nights in Nelson, B.C., years ago, I found small note politely tucked under my windshield wiper one morning: "Go home Yankee" I'm still rooting for Team Canada

Hold on, hold on. Is Logan Webb a ... woke ginger

[News anchor voice]: "It was no *paradise* for *these* cheeseburgers. Tragedy in the drive thru lane tonight..."

Snowy day / gym day

Anyone else feeling a little too beaned up today?

how your email finds me etc etc

Power back at 6:12. The children won't have to eat cold breakfasts.

Fitzcarraldo (1982)

Hello darkness, my old friend... (we just lost power in the storm)

I'm biased, but this is a very nice read

but what was her name though?

I don't exactly know why, but this radar map is kind of sending me. It's like, "May we present to you... Everett!"

This is how you graphic design (complimentary)

I guess tonight is gonna blow

"Draw me like one of your wraith girls"

Felt like a pretty good day to delete the Grammarly account I forgot I was pressured to sign up for (and never used) at a past job

I'm suing Grammarly over its paid AI feature that presented editing suggestions as if they came from me - and many other writers and journalists - without consent. State law requires consent before someone's name can be used for commercial purposes. www.wired.com/story/gramma...
