aces on their stop stop he's already dead type shit

Covering a football game tonight for the first time in a few years and I’m so excited! I miss journalism.

In the past couple of months I've had 2-3 friends tell me that they have a bottle of champagne they're saving -- or that, at the very least, they always make sure there is a bottle in the house -- for when Trump dies. The level of celebration that's gonna happen when he croaks is gonna be INSANE.

Fun fact: you absolutely do not have to stand for god Bless America.

So I watched the SportsNet (🇨🇦) feed of Blue Jays/Yankees for a bit last night … and the Jays get to have their team broadcast crew, not just the generic national ones?!? Another thing I’m jealous of about our friends up north. Don & Mud should be calling Padres playoff games.

I know the point of ads is to stand out, but man… the Nintendo ad patches on the Mariners unis are an eyesore. It’ll never happen, but if we have to have jersey ads, can they at least go with the team’s color scheme?

Ne-VAHH-duh

I’ve spoken at conferences in Athens and Prague because I was a “social marketing expert” in a past life. Athens was my first trip outside the U.S. and Prague is just an incredible city. I also had the dream job doing social media for a baseball team for a couple seasons.

me, a non-religious person (closes eyes): I am praying for Dolly Parton. I would like to put in a prayer for Dolly Parton. Make that lots of prayers. I would like infinity prayers for Dolly Parton. Give Dolly Parton unlimited prayers. All the prayers that have ever existed should go to Dolly Parton.

I have zero faith in Dems at pretty much any level to punish those responsible or reverse any of this. The guise of bipartisanship and big donor money, after all.

Gotta love my phone reminding me to give a birthday call to … my wife lol

Can’t decide what to buy on Prime Day? Try: absolutely nothing, and then go support indie bookstores instead 📚

I don't know if all of these people started out helpless, but these apps are certainly making them that way. "Ah but I'm training it" no I think it's training you.

Every time I see a person discussing use cases for chatgpt or whatever it's someone who has lost the ability to solve for their boredom in a way a child learns to.

Really tough to argue that generative AI isn't a net negative, even leaving aside the macro issues, when every time I'm introduced to a new user it's someone who has lost their ability to think basic thoughts on their own.

My redneck brother gave his newborn baby boy the middle name Capone. I’m bummed that my wife and I didn’t have a kid to name Bugsy or Machine Gun Kelly or something.

Getting so very close to picking up enough freelance work to leave my job. I kinda love it…

When Stephen Miller hijacks the Major League Baseball social media account

Dickhead In Sanchez Jersey Turns Out To Be Mark Sanchez

The Democratic politicking that apparently needs no changes:

🎶 we could be heroes, just for one day 🎶

Took enough edibles to hopefully forget that game and the shitty work day ✌️

Wow. Bullshit call.

Calling THIS the best era of Padres baseball feels a little cruel

Dansby Swanson turning into 1998 Derek Jeter for this series

at the ASG presser, I had mentioned in my question that Atlanta is the only city in the US where a journalist has been detained by ICE for doing his job. this is cruel and unnecessary and, plainly, a violation of human rights. it was the case months ago and still is the case now. fuck ICE.

Between work and this game, today is really not going my way lol

Lol timeline says fuck matt shaw

Shildt knows pitchers can’t re-enter, right?

So close. So far.

Could really use a Dairy Bonds dinger right here…

Noted free speech haven Saudi Arabia allowing all these canceled comedians the chance to tell jokes for the first time in years

Remaining teams ranked by how much I want them to win the World Series: 1. Padres 2. Guardians 3. Mariners 4. Brewers 5. Blue Jays 6. Tigers 7. Phillies 8. Cubs 9. Getting hit by a bus 10. Yankees 11. Red Sox 12. Getting hit by a second bus 13. Dodgers

Hell yes. Though a lot of the women at my gym are more “lions, not sheep” TERFy types 🫠

also, when you get that idea to post ai shit to make fun of it, please understand the people who make and proliferate this garbage only want your attention, not your approval, so don’t do it because you’re only helping the worst people on earth

Reviewing an article I’m writing about our company’s super transformative AI 🫠

We’re finally getting our two weeks of fall in Vegas!

Tomorrow. Game 3. LFGSD.

Why don’t they just make the whole plane out of Mason Miller?

104.5 MPH from Mason Miller lol

They have to retire the Vedder Cup shit when the guy is at a Padres playoff game in the opposing teams gear

Morejon with the assist on that out

now where i am from when someone in your office has an accuracy rate of 57.2 percent in editing spreadsheets we call them "fired"

Thanks to the MLB official account on Twitter, we now know Manny said "motherfucker". Nice try, Disney!

Runs. Plural!

Manny MAAAAAA-CHADO!

Rude that my work’s busiest time of year is during the playoffs

Honest post that sounds silly: After so many near-collisions already this postseason, I think that outfielders should move to noises or animal sounds to stand out over the crowd noise.
