Orioles shortstop Gunnar Henderson will represent the U.S. at the World Baseball Classic, the club announces

And we begin our #WEDReads Discussion of Scoundrels Villains & Knaves with author @foxxnolte.bsky.social with Part One: Lost Down Pirate Alley, and the journey from real life pirates to our modern interpretations. What questions might you have? What stood out?

a glasses case is a great vehicle by which one may reintroduce a spider to the outside of one’s house

Honestly, so glad this means we’ll get to see Ceddy in the outfield at Camden Yards several times this season 🥹

Happy Thanksgiving

My annual reminder that I didn’t learn until college that meatballs weren’t a traditional Thanksgiving side dish in every family #ItalianAmerican

Not to get lost in all the other news today, but I must also alert all of you that we’ve gotten our first new Strong Bad Email in THREE YEARS:

The advocacy and work of accessibility continues, regardless of anti-DEIA. But the work can be harder, less resourced, more diminished. Oppressive systems weigh heavily on the advocates still advocating. So if you can, take the weight off us by helping where you can, regardless of your job title.

Is today an inverse full moon or something?

Wooooo!!!!

Who else is doing the Ryan Mountcastle Refresh right now? #Birdland

Here's a must-have book for anyone working in digital accessibility -- INCLUDING marketing and communication pros who create digital content: www.linkedin.com/feed/update/... #Accessibility #DigitalMarketing

I would argue that those folks are already being rewarded by not being born with genetic conditions that disrupt their day-to-day life, but what do I know? 🙃

I absolutely feel like Grayson is going to follow Arietta and Gausman and get it going after leaving the Os.

Quite a surprising trade here. 26-year-old Grayson Rodriguez, '18 1st-round Draft pick and former top prospect, showed a ton of potential in '23 and '24, just hasn't stayed healthy. Taylor Ward, 31, is entering final year or arbitration. Hit .247 over 8 seasons with Angels.

What are we doing here

Wtf is happening

Sometimes you’re in a line to celebrate Life Day and you run into @pinkbunny.bsky.social!!!

So I made this EPCOT VHS graphic based on blank VHS covers years ago and decided it would make a pretty cool shirt. www.teepublic.com/t-shirt/8338...

I’m watching Thunderbolts for the first time and I just died watching one of my favorite gifs play out

Don’t threaten me with a good time

I can’t believe I’m about to watch Kevin Gausman start a World Series game 🥲

Look, someone just get me video of Caleb Joseph interviewing Kevin Gausman in the Blue Jays clubhouse, giving him two claps and a Ric Flair (how I imagine the scenario going). I’ve decided that is the only consolation prize I will accept right now.

Me!

Don’t make me start calling on you individually! Help a friend out:

I read the second part of this post too quickly and it came across as “who is going to punch the Blue Jays in the face”

And not only a factor with age - mine is caused by severe myopia, but mimics the same symptoms.

GIVE IT TO ME NOW

Gertie the dinosaur fuckin yeeeets this woolly mammoth in an early animation from the 1910s

Have a day, Vladdy

Thanks to @gertiethedino.com, discovered that Timberform still exists and makes these "block of wood" playgrounds. Amazing! #RetroMagic

I can't say enough about what @retrowdw.bsky.social pulled off with #RetroMagic. A smooth and polished event with an array of legends. I If you're at all into this kind of dorky nonsense you owe it to yourselves to check it out next time. The premiere Disney history event.

Did I just walk to my car with 1 shoe on to preserve Tony Baxter’s autograph? Sure did

I still can’t believe I found an adult version of this hat 💛
