I am cautiously optimistic that all the smoke about the #Mariners extending Logan will catch fire. Seems like the right risk/reward moment for both sides, and I want to believe having him start Thursday is a sign. And it would be fun symmetry with Cal’s extension last year. 🤞 #goms

Happy Opening Week! Come refuel your energy to combat The Horrors by finding your community with us, with baseball. For @lookoutlanding.bsky.social I kicked off our Seattle Mariners season preview by looking at their best position player group in two decades. www.lookoutlanding.com/seattle-mari...

It has come to my attention that another M's List has entered the chat. (I guess M's fandom has really started to mature On Here.) With great humility, here is the List that I've maintained for the past two seasons and will be updating again before Opening Day. bsky.app/profile/did:...

That's really good! Might be some folks you find here, too. bsky.app/profile/did:...

Here's a Mariners starter pack for people who still need more baseball accounts to follow. Doctors still recommend you read at least three things about Mitch Garver every day, after all

The baseball season is almost here, so it might be a good time to recalibrate your feed. @reneedechert.com has some starter packs pinned, so check those out. You can also find packs for Baseball Prospectus writers here:

My first act as an active #Mariners poster is to share my list (bsky.app/profile/did:...) and Starter Pack (go.bsky.app/7SAFvgx) of Mariners-heavy accounts on here. Let me know whom I missed! #goms

I believe this is the year that #Mariners Bluesky (Marinersky?) can reach critical mass. I delighted in being a lurker on Mariners Twitter, but left that site years ago. So I will try to do my part to make M's Bluesky happen by actually posting, even if just into the void. #goms

This is a horrible incident, but the screencap illustrating the story is chef’s kiss. gothamist.com/news/nyc-nix...

@nycsouthpaw.bsky.social I feel like this lede was written specifically to infuriate you. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/05/u...

@darthbluesky.bsky.social A legitimately good reason to use the coffee shop drive-thru.

AUTISM IS NOT AN EPIDEMIC, PEOPLE WITH AUTISM ARE NOT BROKEN

My daughter’s public school has a drag queen story night every spring. Usually, a nice but small event. This year, the principal got hate mail about it. This was the result. This is what it looks like when people love their kids.

made a meme about my mental state

The silly beautiful hope I feel on Opening Day is so irrational, on multiple levels, and yet to feel hope at all for any reason truly feels like a drink of clean, cool water after 6 weeks in the desert.

I am confident that witnessing the country steer directly into authoritarianism bordering on fascism would upset me regardless, but as a civil rights lawyer, federal employee, and Columbia (law) grad, the targeted destruction of the institutions out of which I built my life out sure sucks.

Fellow GenXers raised on college radio, please enjoy Tim Walz and Doug Emhoff having the best time as Michael Stipe performs “Driver 8” at a Harris rally.

Everything is terrible and potentially about to get much worse, but Cal Raleigh just won his first Gold Glove Award, and that is a Good Thing.

Why aren't you watching 1992 cyberthriller popcorn classic Sneakers, starring kind of everybody??

we're just innocent men

My first take was gonna be "oh good now even more people can know what a shit Robert Moses was," but reading the description of what they've done with the endnotes, this is going to be a genuinely useful research tool, *and* a far more accessible read. Plus: Knowing what a shit Robert Moses was.
