I feel like I haven’t even been properly lied to about the purposes of this war

I was convinced I was getting Rothrock for Christmas 🥺

Man the Covid vax just lays me flat out every time 😭

Never forget this iconic comment from 2013 🔮

Love that Isaac is sleeping just over 5 hours at a time now, but it is wrecking my sleep schedule 💀. Just long enough to give me insomnia after feeding him

You have to wonder if we will be able to field a team after facing Australia in the World Cup

Everybody involved will need to go to prison and if democrats in congress don’t have the stomach for punishing these people they should just resign now.

Good morning to what I’m sure will be a slow news day

Bringing these to the pod @puddi.bsky.social

Magic The Gathering and the Sounders are like my two personality traits, so I’m eating this up

Pretty cool that 12.99 will now get you access to a mind bending drama based on highly structured and inscrutable rules with themes of identity and free will set to a backdrop of corporate desperation and overreach and also severance is on there I guess

Isaac is sleeping better in the mornings, so I’m trying to get back into blogging. I’m trying to mix tech write ups / tutorials with other life stuff, but it’s hard to get over the “who cares” wall lol

I think Senate folders are significantly underestimating how fucking angry Democratic voters are at them

I was gonna say this even had we won, but I despise this playoff format

Man that sucks

This series is a damn soap opera

All I want for Christmas is for Doyle to go 0/2

lol we are up a man and there was no one in his orbit

Sigh. Cmon Sounders

Oof this is (unfortunately) good

I think it's pretty clear, Zohran Mamdani won the NYC Mayoral Election because he's a Sounders fan.

Rewatching West Wing and it’s pretty fun seeing Biden’s name from time to time in Josh’s office

Vargas has the gift of scoring fuck ass goals

How is Radford allowed near our team still

If you want to understand how certain people are radicalized, you can watch that foul no call and then look up who the VAR referee is.

Wait they pulled ALEX???

Two cats and a baby sleeping on me and this game is putting me through it. Haven’t woken them yet

Sheesh. Can’t let it go to penalties again

This coffee joint tricked my MIL into dropping $40 for beans and I regret to report you can taste the difference

Thanks to Alex Rubenstein and, of course, @jonbois.bsky.social for talking to me about making what not only remains the essential portrait of the team, the city, the state, & the country half a decade later, but most certainly will for many more decades to come 📽️ www.seattletimes.com/entertainmen...

I wonder if Mamdani hates Cuomo more than Newsom hates Trump

To be frank about it, if the court does what the court will almost certainly do, there's probably no way to oust reactionaries from power without a struggle to restore voting rights that could last a generation and change. Just like last time around.

@gruber.foo Have you ever watched an MLS game on Apple TV? Was reading daringfireball.net/linked/2025/..., and I think MLS is the sport where they have the freedom and ability to make that deep integration you described - but they've come up pretty short

Pochettino: "Cristian Roldan is maybe an example of if you want to build your perfect player...he has a little bit of everything."

CRISTIAN IS SERVING

Watching USMNT twitter turn on Roldan is wild

give me a double pivot of cristian roldan and marky delgado and i could move the world

It took two weeks for my cats to learn how to open closed doors 💀

GOOD. VIBES. ONLY. 🔱 The whole squad wanted in on the @mariners.com-inspired goal celly!

The Sounders doing the Mariners celebration is fucking awesome

My kid is two weeks old today and I will be telling him about this game for years.

mariners fans are my favorite bunch of fans of any team in any sport. i watched the bottom half of the last seven innings standing up in my living room. thanks for letting me hitch a ride

My newborn has this uncanny ability to rip farts when I die in Hades II

While technically it could have been the Vancouver game, I’m excited to watch my first ever Sounders game with my son tonight

BIGGEST WIN DANCE CIRCLE WITH THORNTON IN THE MIDDLE OF

I did not think this would happen at the beginning of the season. Not a chance.

CAL!!!

MARINERS!!!
