Hey internet! You know how you love to be mad? Well now is a great time to put that skill to use and contact the FCC.

For some reason, the MLB app on my ipad shows me the score for Game 4 of the 2023 World Series every time I open it. IDK what's going on there. If not for this tech glitch, I would have completely forgotten that the Texas Rangers randomly won the WS, however.

The audiobook for RACHEL FRIEDMAN BREAKS THE RULES is currently on sale for 60% off--making it only $3.60! Great opportunity to read the first book in what SLJ calls a "charming and spirited series." #kidlit #Jewishkidlit #chapterbooks

If you're a book creator and you're mad about our latest scandal du jour I encourage you to channel that energy into: 1. Calling your reps (house) and demanding they vote no on HRs 7661 and 2616 2. Volunteering with AABB. We NEED more people. We NEED this energy. TLDR: Touch grass, call your reps

not a real yankee fan unless you once thought you hated john sterling and then eventually realized you loved john sterling

the Red Sox firing Cora would be chef’s-kiss enough but canning Literally Jason Varitek is making me ASCEND

Remember when bat flips were frowned upon and how dumb that was for the sport

Jackie Robinson grew up in a diverse Pasadena neighborhood, & when one of those neighbors, his baseball teammate Shig Takayama, was incarcerated at Manzanar with his family, the Robinsons helped take care of their home. For my new column, a story of the worst & best of America through baseball. 🗃️

Your @MLB leader in SLG and OPS:

Is there a way to turn off the AI in gmail? It is annoying the fuck out of me.

I'm very late in finishing Bridgerton season 4, but I have to say that I think it's a nice portrayal of a bisexual person who ends up in an m/f relationship. Do I think it should win any awards? No. But I liked it. Is this a niche take? I kind of feel like maybe it is.

Hey everyone! You have until MARCH 30, 2026 to file a claim in the Anthropic Settlement. If you have questions about filing--or if you aren't sure if you've filed correctly--call the settlement administrator at 1 877-206-2314.

Periodically someone will be all, "WHY DO ADULTS READ YA" and IMO the answer is that YA is great because it manages to have characters who have big emotions about what are generally low stakes (and usually relatable) dramas like being mad at your parents or having a crush

If this is you, I want you to know that the amount per work is very likely to be > $3000. Half that if you're splitting with your publisher.

If you entered a claim and didn't get an email with the subject "Your claim #XXXXXXXXXX has been received" from [email protected] with a claim number it might not have gone through.

The #Mariners' Josh Naylor provided a nice moment Tuesday by greeting history-making umpire Jen Pawol before stepping into the box. "It’s not hard to be inclusive and welcoming and happy. I think it could change the world.” (via @shannondrayer.bsky.social) sports.mynorthwest.com/mlb/seattle-...

ISU: our scores are very manipulable just so you know Also ISU: and there’s nothing we love more than handing it to abusers, abuse apologists, and rape deniers

The failure of our elites to hold Trump accountable for January 6th is as disgraceful as what happened on that awful day. Since 2010, 35 democratic leaders around the world have been criminally convicted. Only Trump went unpunished and unconstrained. Now he threatens democracy at home and abroad.

Lost Hal Steinbrenner's vote when he said NYers shouldn't ask for little and expect less.

Favorite books of the year--middle grade edition: TURNING TWELVE, Kathryn Ormsbee and Lee Brooks LOLA REYES IS SO NOT WORRIED, Cindy L. Rodriguez CRUISE LIFE: QUEEN OF THE SEA, Reese Eschmann THE TRUTH ABOUT THE TOOTH FAIRY, Leah Cypress SILVERBORN, Jessica Townsend

I really think it's important for these millionaire athletes, none of whom are children, to feel great shame for being interested in Adin Ross to begin with. Mookie Betts, you are 33 years old. You have a wife and children. You should not know who Adin Ross is.

No notes.

These are the "good and decent people" who didn't survive the Reagan presidency.

Um, yes, I'm okay seeing a PCP before a specialist. Assuming that I ACTUALLY get to see a specialist without having to pay a specialist out of pocket, plus literally thousands of dollars for testing that my HMO wouldn't do even though they should have done it. Ask me how I know.

Jenn's my agent, and she knows what she's talking about as well as anyone else in the industry. Read her Tumblr!

Ad-driven social media platforms pushing baked goods on me gives me a small bit of hope that maybe these platforms don't know me as well as I fear. Becuase I was recently diagnosed with celiac disease.

Writing question: Do the kids today know what Rick-rolling is?

“How are sales?”

Question: Is it possible to enjoy Heated Rivalry if you don't gaf about hockey?

We're officially in Hanukkah season, so I will promote RACHEL FRIEDMAN AND EIGHT NOT-PERFECT NIGHTS OF HANUKKAH. If you know a kid that celebratrates Hanukkah and is reading chapter books, please consider! Hanukkah is a holiday for fun and shenanigans. bookshop.org/p/books/rach...

The AI slop situation on Facebook is truly out of hand. I now REGULARLY see shit that has so-called "Aaron Judge quotes" accompanied by pictures of regular-sized, generic white guys. Is that what AI thinks Aaron Judge looks like?!

Today on Threads, I learned that Wicked ruined The Wizard of Oz. In other news, pizza ruined chicken teriyaki and football ruined rhythmic gymnastics.

I'm preparing a presentation on writing for middle-schoolers next week, and I decided to go all in on "Wicked." Truly, everything you need to know about basic character development and conflict can be found in "What is This Feeling."

are the fae open source

Another Game of Wool thought: Sorry, but the judge literally crying over fiber arts is incomprehensible. I don't even get THAT emotional when I see items from my late grandma, and I loved her more than almost anyone in the universe. Getting weepy over a porthole? Just, why?

Are you in Northern Cali? Please consider adopting this wonderful buddy

Disability education should not be put into HHS because it's not a health issue, it's an education issue. The idea that disability = health is dehumanizing and, frankly, simply wrong.

Never forget that just a week ago, Ross Douthat and the NYTimes were asking if women ruined the workplace.

Catching up on #stickergate. I think my first question is, how did people not know this was a hoax from the moment an AOL email address entered the story?

Aaron Judge is the AL MVP, and I'm sure Mariners fans are going to be 100% normal about this.

After seeing the online fiber arts community kvetch about Game of Wool, I decided to try it under the assumption that it couldn't possibly be as bad as people said. I regret to say that it truly is that bad. Holger is a star, though.

Authors, Beware! There's a firm called "ClaimsHero" doing aggressive social media outreach claiming to "help" you file to get $ in the Anthropic class action. In fact, it's a bait-and-switch, they are luring authors to sign up with them, then OPTING THEM OUT of the class action so they'll get zilch.
