So, since a super is probably out of the running, AND because it’s senior day, they should just put The Old Man in for the entire game tomorrow. His bat can’t be any worse than some other dudes we watched t be naming, and I’ll be in the stands, so it will be a Specific Gift to Me.

I love baseball

“The Taylor Sheridan AI wrote the thing, and it does NOT takes notes!” Haven’t enjoyed much of TB post-s2, but that was a great line.

Florence is otherworldly; I imagine this is how it felt to see Bowie live. I am dead inside from my suppressed panic attack, but I can recognize genius when I see it.

Sometimes one is reminded that one is Too Old to Be Here (being forced out into the hallway of the Moda centre because even with your industrial-grade earplugs, the concert is Too Loud)

This is what you voted for, America

sign.moveon.org/petitions/pr... The library system I work for is making budget cuts, and it’s been very anxiety inducing wondering who and how it will impact myself and colleagues. If you’d like to take a moment to ask our board to reconsider how these cuts should be done, you’d have my gratitude!

*me reading any article about anything* you guys need to listen to more jazz fusion

Best character on THE BOYS, and every day I empathize with her more and more.

Much-needed series sweep. Now we need this buckle down for Tuesday. #BeaverBaseball

you know what the real data center is. the human mind. thank you,

I will never understand the (extremely male) impulse to hurt animals. What creates the desire to commit acts of cruelty against a creature posing no threat to you. Something deeply broken in this man’s brain. Anyway, they should’ve beat this dude up harder.

You could be a hero, Talty

Reminded today that Okkervil River’s THE SILVER GYMNASIUM is a perfect album; haven’t listened to it for far too long, and it’s one of my all time favorites.

Here way too early for the Will Sheff/ New Pornographers show. Maybe going to get some writing done.

Exchanged vm with a long -time long-distance Twitter friend today and it filled my heart to the top. For all the shit that the internet has brought us, the ability to connect with kindred spirits across the world almost entirely outweighs the bad parts, for me at least. Feeling grateful.

Now would be a really great time for everyone to read THE DELUGE by Stephen Markley.

None of us can cancel everything. But all of us can cancel SOMETHING. One eminently practical suggestion: Does your family have more than one Amazon Prime account? You absolutely don't need more than one! Cancel one of those tonight!

Look, the Republican Party is pushing white supremacist policies to destroy our ability to change the system through democratic electoral politics. So it's time to stop giving their billionaire benefactors our money. Cancel ONE THING from a billionaire today. You can do it! #CancelParty

AOC on possibly running for the Senate or President: They assume my ambition is a title or a seat. My ambition is way bigger than that. My ambition is to change this country. Presidents come and go, elected officials come and go, single payer healthcare is forever.

now thats an anecdote with a punch, from Gillian Tett www.ft.com/content/c0ae...

We need to start publicly shaming men again. Just start booing their asses in public spaces and calling them racists to their faces.

Things to bring back to entertainment reportage: - Shame - Courtesy - The 4th Wall - Common Fucking Sense

Cruelty is the base of the entire GOP platform and has been for my entire lifetime; these ghouls just feel emboldened to once again start exposing the rotten depths of their decrepit hearts in public again.

For my UK buddies!

Oregon candidates: if you do not submit any information to the voter pamphlet, I won’t vote for you for any office. I am too old and too tired to google all y’all to try and figure out why you’re running for governor with no previous governmental experience.

Aya Cash Tony nom, how fun

I’m always extra nice to people who roll through here wearing tr*mp merch because I’m silently putting a curse on them and their decedents and I don’t want them to trace it back to me.

Maybe one of those TikTok kids will run fast enough to find Shelly Miscavige.

Lotta fun cameos in this past week’s episode of THE BOYS, but no one told me about my guy W Earl Brown showing up and I feel like none of you know me at all #DEADWOODForever

What I’m learning tonight is that very few people know Tom of Finland.

Sell part of your soul to attend the met gala and then have the gall to be boring about it.

If schools have money for AI, I'd rather they use that to pay teachers more

Sandblast it back to how it was in 2029. I'm fine with my tax dollars going toward restoring what he's destroyed and removing his name from everything.

Series save. We may have lost Daxim Maxim for the season, but the pitching bench is pretty deep, so I have faith. #BeaversBaseball

Two show day; I am so excited for this production of RAISIN; I’ve never seen it live before.

Pulled out a win, so we need to win tomorrow. I believe in this team and I believe they can overcome this new obstacle to do it. #BeaversBaseball

My heart grows three sizes every time they put in Old Man Krieg 🫶

“Well what wld you do?!” If I was kn Maine now I’d vote for the shmuck, hope for the best but try not to tell myself lies, because doing so eases the way for the worst instincts of the Platners & Fettermans. You’re not voting for a friend. A senator is a tool in a broken system.

#ComeFromAwayOSF tonight; it’s good we’re seeing a musical because guess who had too much to drink at dinner 🙃

Great last shot

We celebrate wins

Gorgeous reading; very moving.

What would I do if I was in Maine, Platner supporters ask? I'd vote Platner, like I voted Harris. Voting Harris didn't mean I was going to shut up about Gaza &her complicity. Voting Platner doesn't mean you don't have to pretend he's not the lying fash-winker he's proven himself to be.

Seated for ANGELS IN AMERICA: MILLENNIUM APPROACHES. Met a man in line who’d seen the 1992 production in LA.

look i was a bernie supporter so i've had to reconcile the fact that a lot of his online supporters were dumb as rocks but certain platner enthusiasts are really not doing their candidate any favors by advancing the "all american men have a nazi phase" argument

The lampshade in this hotel room is giving Ed Gein.

Props to the solo woman bravely standing at the stoplight before the freeway entrance in Roseburg holding a giant sign reading TRUMP FUCKS KIDS. We gave one another a big thumbs up.

May Day protests tomorrow, and I’m scheduled to see Rogue Theatre Company’s reading of ANGELS IN AMERICA and Oregon Shakespeare Festival’s COME FROM AWAY, but I also support everyone’s right to free speech in what’s left of our democracy, so if the companies strike, I’m here for it b/c #solidarity
