Starting to percolate a theory that dismissing other people as "attention seekers" is actually way more harmful than good and we should stop doing that, actually.

Are we just doomed to discourse about this annually for the rest of our lives or

Didn't expect to write up this many words about my mental health journey in the comments section of a baseball blog tonight but here we are.

I honestly don't know if I can be friends with the people who are annoyed by the shirtless men at sports game trend. I just don't know what you want out of sports if you don't find it awesome. Sure sometimes the chants can be cringy but you gotta experiment, this is a whole new energy.

Currently in the booth at Taproot melting my ass off since the HVAC is even more broken now, watching a bunch of men with their shirts off, envious since if I did that right now I'd probably feel better but also suffer consequences.

Sometimes the ADHD means you're productive but not necessarily in the ways you started the day hoping you'd be. Anyway I'm off to finally get groceries after spending all day cleaning my apartment and organizing my Discord servers.

I guess my "controversial" baseball take of the weekend is that it's actually really gross that PCA shouted "suck my f*cking d*ck b*tch" at a woman in the stands and he should absolutely be fined for that. I'm all for saying "don't bring the heat if you can't take it back" but uh, there's a line.

Just watched someone learn a harsh lesson about standing on the yellow line at Westlake when the operator clanged the bell extremely loudly as they drove by and then hopped on the intercom to scold them, lol.

Jesus Christ Superstar at the 5th was so fucking good. Absolutely worth your time and money if musicals are your sort of thing.

I'm generally for reusable cups but I feel like such a dork with this thing on the light rail.

Today I: * Woke up at 8:30 on a day off (big deal for me) * Helped my mom organize my late grandmother's things at a storage locker * Shopped at Michael's for a craft project * Put together a #TransitTracker * Cheered the boys on to victory in the Brougham End Full-ass day. Hell yeah.

Best $18 I ever spent

Jesus Ferreira just ran straight towards me from the other side of the pitch and scored an amazing goal right in front of me that was awesome

Singing with @weareecs.bsky.social for the first time in a year: "Oh, this is easy! I can definitely keep this up all match." "Wait, actually, my throat is starting to hurt a bit, better take the occasional measure off." "Holy shit we're doing this for ninety minutes?"

Up to some mischief again

Had fun today building the #transittracker from @eastsideurbanism.org ! Unfortunately having network issues so I don't have the money shot of it hanging on my wall yet but that's forthcoming I'm sure.

Neither pro-AI nor anti-AI but some other third thing I'm waiting patiently for someone to give voice to

Man I'm happy that Cal got that monkey off his back, good for him.

This is a bad graph for a few different reasons but like, people understand that wages *are* part of GDP, right? Like, it's weird to compare two numbers' relationship to a third number if one of your two numbers is a direct component of that third number and the other one isn't, right? That's odd?

Where do people buy rugs? I want a rug but I don't know how to go about doing that.

Well nothing bad has ever happened in Houston with Alvarez up in a clutch situation so this should be fine.

Turns out sort-of-accidentally inviting your mom over for Mother's Day is an amazing way to motivate yourself to clean your apartment. Pretty sure this place is cleaner than it's been at any other point since we moved in.

watching baseball @jonbois.bsky.social

Wasn't expecting to see a picture of The Growler Guys when I tapped this Seattle Times notification. Devastating news. Many a good time with @lookoutlanding.bsky.social folks have been had here. www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news...

I wrote a lot about a thing that pissed me off today. www.reddit.com/r/Seattle/co...

I swear I used to get consistent reception through the tunnel between Capitol Hill and UW Station at one point, these days it drops every time. Did T-Mobile have a tower down there and now they don't? Am I hallucinating my old memories? What happened?

Lmao

What a great song from 2011 that surely doesn't sound extremely different in 2026! youtu.be/kSQ8tZ35t4U?...

Maybe it's just been a while since I had to buy cables but I feel like a 3ft USB-C to USB-C cable was a lot cheaper than $21 on Monoprice in the not-too-distant past.

Fernando Tatis Jr. has an elite hard-hit rate ... ... and 0 homers. 340 players have a homer. He's not one of them. What's going on here? On changed stances and oppo swings.. --> www.mlb.com/padres/news/...

There's a gleeful tone to some of the conversation about cancelled concert tours in left-y spaces, probably because they see it as a blow to Ticketmaster/Live Nation or some other faceless corporation, and I just see cancelled concerts as money my union kin aren't making.

*looks at my pinned skeet for inspiration in this trying time*

I'm on a train where it's fairly packed, there's still quite a bit of standing room but all the seats are taken. All of the people standing are by the doors. Nobody is standing in the middle of the train. Is there anything we can do about this?

I saw a criticism of AI doomerism that was basically "why are you worried about AI telling people how to make bombs when it can't even do math right all the time" and I feel like that misses the fact that it doesn't really matter if the AI tells you how to build a bomb *correctly.*

My friend recently lost their sister to military violence in the Philippines. I don’t typically post fundraisers but this sweet human sends me letters and I care about their family. Please share if you can. (I wouldn’t trust msm coverage of this, it’s being suppressed/misrepresented intentionally )

Had one of those days where I mostly just slept yesterday, which was great because I had a lot of sleep debt to make up, but terrible because it was my one day off and I didn't get groceries 😅

Just absolutely perfect.

Randy, what, like, how, what, no, don't, no, bad, be better, wow.

They're shooting another one of these on the floor as I skeet

i hate getting out of bed and i hate going to bed, i’m a real fuckin tsundere for bed

Is this just, where we are these days? Is this what social media is? Is this what we want? Is this good and healthy for anyone?

The most important lesson I learned in film school was that if they’re portraying something in a piece of media, that means the creator approves of it, unless the characters end the piece by turning to the camera and saying “I understand that what just happened was bad and shouldn’t be done”

Yeah, this. youtu.be/-pTjwWTQZqs?...

there really is like a society wide, party neutral affliction of people not caring whether something is true or not and I can't say I care for it!!!!!!!!!

Oooooooo

This is not what AI psychosis is and I'm pretty deeply annoyed that the original poster of this thread used that term to frame this article.

Getting settled back at my station at work and checking the score of the Mariners game

Very wild to be having this set of thoughts and then watch Hank Green and Simone Giertz talk for an hour.

I've been low-key grappling with the fact that I'm actively taking steps to be a "public person" lately - I made a video that got 14k views, which isn't a lot but it's certainly not nothing. I'm writing high-effort posts on Lookout Landing. I'm putting myself out there, so we'll see what happens.
