Hi, Baseball Mom here. Trophies don't mean everything...but if you have a minute to get some construction paper out and make John Schneider a nice card, I think he'd appreciate it.

I shouldn't have to dig so deep or really even care to find out about whatever Oates drama is going on now, and yet

Rosie got my phone AGAIN, and took another chip out of the brand new screen protector I just installed. I've ordered a wallet case cuz clearly she's fixated on my phone and can't leave it anywhere.

Few months ago my father, aunt and uncle went to Norwich, England and gave a little talk about my grandmother who served as a Red Cross nurse during World War II, including excerpts from her wartime letters to her family back home. The video is here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=gMOI...

You're at Ernie. I need you at Bert.

If for some reason you aren't sick of my face and voice, I showed up on someone else's show tonight

The bombastic side eye Rosie gives me when I put on her winter gear...

Giving high marks to the first 2 eps of #Plur1bus

Nah, No Wri No Mo Fo NaNoWriMo. Instead, Wri Fo Yoself, Go Pro. No FOMO, Homie!

Rosie broke my cell phone screen protector AGAIN. She just keeps taking my phone! Nothing is safe! She's also destroyed a THIRD pair of my house slippers AND her pretty collar! At this rate, she is getting NOTHING for Christmas!!!!

Everyone this morning is cursing not getting new snow boots/winter tires on.

The weather sucks, but I am so ready for coziness with Rosie.

First snow means blasting Mariah Carey's "All I Want For Christmas (Is You)" at top volume and dancing with the Biped in the kitchen because joy is the only antidote to despair.

You can't buy taste

Can confirm. Would recommend.

I've gotten this fortune before, but it's nice when you finish writing a book and this shows up.

academics are higher income and thus likelier to own cars and thus likelier to suffer from undiagnosed car brain, so

Me: $5.99 for 6 croissants? That's highway robbery! Also me: Mmm, $3.75 croissant from coffee place

I have finished Ghost of Yotei.

Thanks @benjaminahr.mobi for the Sheng Wang rec! The Biped fell in love with his special so we're seeing him live in Toronto Dec. 13! And All Ages event? In stand-up comedy??? Unheard of!

Winterizing checklist: - disconnect garden hose - cover/put away patio furniture - clean up yard - get shovels and salt out

New from me at TVO, regarding today's fall economic statement: www.tvo.org/article/anal...

Is ordering nachos for the table the "order a round of shots" for 40-year-olds

THIS! Personal bests should be celebrated. We should encourage everyone to help others, to help them obtain their own personal bests, their own reasons to celebrate.

I don't understand the people who are against participation trophies. Do you tell all the marathon runners they don't deserve recognition because one guy was faster than all of them? Do you tell your kid not to join a team cuz if they lose the championship they're not worthy of acknowledgement?

Nothing quite as humbling as finding your first white pubic hair.

BEAVER MOON. That's it. That's the joke.

Man, I hope the Jays are still getting together at each other's houses, cooking BBQ and playing Mario Kart or Guitar Hero or something. I just want them to be happy.

Huh. Dick Cheney's dead.

Your reminder that COVID and flu shots are now available! Get them so we don't all spread it around and kill your grandpa or baby.

But wait, it CAN get worse!

APPEARANCE UPDATES: Added NYC in late 2025 plus the first wave of 2026 shows to effinbirds.com/appearances See you soon. If I'm not a guest at your local comic con, make sure to let them know how much you'd like to see me there!

“She violently resisted, kicking two agents and causing injuries. This agitator was arrested for assault on a federal agent,” McLaughlin said. If men with masks and guns hit your car and drag you out without identifying themselves, it’s now US policy that women should just … let it happen?

THIS! I'm all on board with the Jays float in the Santa Claus parade!

Just saying, it's not too late to put a float together for the Jays to drive ahead of Santa at the Santa Claus parade this year!

REPOST if you think we should have a parade for the Blue Jays anyhow! Champions of our hearts!

Awww, Ernie. Baseball Mom here. You go ahead and cry. This is all so hard, but I just want you to know how proud we are of you, how much we love your heart, how we see you and your passion. We'll miss you too, but rest is important! You're always welcome to come over for oranges over the break.

Look folks gen AI videos are out in the wild so if you weren't already being careful about sharing rage bait videos then now is a great time to start If you can't trace a video back to a trusted source then I recommend leaving it where it is, like a slice of bologna you found on the street

Great job Google

Listen, if every kid out there made the Jays a trophy, not for the World Series, but for BEST TEAM EVER, they would champions of something even more important: our hearts. I'm serious, today is a great day to get the scissors and glue out.

This is the ideal time for someone to put together a montage of this season's greatest Blue Jays moments set to Green Day's "Good Riddance (Time of Your Life)"

Today is the perfect day to listen to this banger. www.youtube.com/watch?v=8SbU...

I still think George Springer should get to ride a horse downtown. I mean, I think we should still have a parade, cuz the Jays deserve their flowers. This was a hard team to beat. This whole season was ups and downs, but look at us! As close as it gets!

Hey. It's okay. I'm sorry. I love you all. We're so proud. I had so much fun this season. We can still go to the Mandarin. Get some sleep, okay?

Fuck you, 20 innings. #DecemberBaseball

Baseball Mom here. Y'all make me so proud.

Ok, we're back. I'd be mad if I didn't get to hear Buck and Dan call this game.

Can confirm

Omg our Sportsnet just cacked out
