Well, bummer for the UConn ladies, but that furniture store has to be breathing a huge sigh of relief.

Watching the Artemis II launch was a lot more stressful than I expected. I see "Challenger Trauma" is trending and that tracks. Anyway, ultimately an awesome experience. I like NASA stuff! Go, astronauts!

Mayo looks better at 3rd than he ever looked at 1st.

Tomorrow is April Fool's Day, or as I like to call it, "People Lie Right To Your Face & Then Make Fun Of You For Believing Them" Day.

"Treatment" could literally be for anything, like a sprained ankle. So this is not a meaningful statement, not that I expected him to issue a meaningful statement. www.espn.com/golf/story/_...

You are not required to watch every Orioles game to be an Orioles fan. You are not required to finish every Orioles game to be an Orioles fan. You are not required to continue watching a losing Orioles effort in late innings to be an Orioles fan. Love to all my O's fans out there.

Okay, everyone, that's it for me. I'll be watching Friends reruns the rest of the night. Go O's.

YES! Nice work, Gunnar. (still really worried about Eflin.)

Jesus. (this is an Orioles post)

Is this Orioles game taking 7 hours for everyone or just me?

DTF St. Louis... I KNEW IT!!! But I'm still surprised how it all came about. Also still half an episode to go, so things could change.

Three games in and I'm pretty darn happy with "Mayo the third baseman."

I'm considering it a blessing that the MASN scorebug graphic isn't working properly today.

It's important for Orioles fans (myself included) to remember that there are new voices of leadership in that clubhouse, and the response/reaction to this loss is likely to be very different from previous seasons.

Well, at least Nunez looked great today. (plenty of other little things that I've liked--Mayo's catch at the nets, or Albie's pinch hit/run working out--but still felt like a game we could have won).

JJ!

Tiger Woods on the golf course: everyone can look up to him and emulate him. Tiger Woods off the golf course: no one should look up to him or emulate him. Building quite a legacy of bad role model behavior.

I see charts like these & just blink dumbly. I can't understand this data, am I really that old? (granted, I stopped following baseball for about 20 years before coming back to it three years ago). Am I "old man yells at clouds"?

So if the celebration for first base is hand gesture bird wings (adorable) does that mean the celebration for second base will be full-arm wing flapping?

Mayo!! Great play, sir.

Earlier today I said "tachnology" instead of "technology" and it appears as though my wife is never going to let me forget it.

Project Hail Mary rules.

As he should. www.slashfilm.com/2130386/sinn...

According to this interview, Drew Goddard (whose work I love) is, um... rebooting the Matrix? Do not want. variety.com/2026/film/ne...

Basallo could very likely be a difference maker, my lord.

Brief departure from Orioles posts... here are my cats, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, enjoying today's sunshine.

If I get sick in the next week, it will be the first time in 9 years that I've been sick (masks & hand-washing are your friends), and will 100% be the fault of the little girl two seats to my right at tonight's Back to the Future musical performance who kept coughing.

You'd be forgiven if you thought this was an Onion headline. www.reddit.com/r/Fauxmoi/co...

Michael B. Jordan, y'all!!! HE WON IT!!! HE DESERVED IT!!!

This skit with the 5 funny actresses reading funny cue cards is funny! But it's also the reason why the orchestra has interrupted several acceptance speeches tonight. We need to choose between presenter skits and acceptance speeches, and it seems clear to me which should win. Let the winners talk!

Gunnar is so good. Just... a beast. We all love Adley and Westy and Cowser, but I firmly believe this team NEEDS to lock Gunnar down for the long-term.

A little icky seeing Fred Savage up there with everyone else for the Rob Reiner tribute, but otherwise... solid tribute.

If there was one category I really wanted Sinners to win, it was Original Screenplay. I'm so happy.

Downey wearing a "Dr. Doom-green" suit to present an Oscar is either an actor loving his work OR a part of his multi-million-dollar contract. Or both, I suppose.

Yeah, that performance of "I Lied to You" from Sinners was outstanding. (Oscars) Hit that one out of the park. Damn.

Did Conan say the Oscars were "revelant?"

Wow. What an upset. (Venezuela vs Japan)

It's wild to me that so many baseball fans are NOT watching this Japan/Venezuela game, because the game is magical and not what was predicted!!

HOLY CRAP! What is happening?! (this is a World Baseball Classic post)

Would it be poetic if Canada came back and knocked out the US team? I don't know about poetic. But it would for sure be hilarious.

My brain read this as Tyler O'Neill, MLB player, and was momentarily quite surprised he would give a speech to the US locker room and then even more surprised to learn of his extracurriculars.

I find it odd that Planters' mascot is a peanut shell (presumably with peanuts inside) and yet Planters doesn't appear to sell a single still-in-shell peanut product.

For various reasons, I've been assembling some furniture this week (and disassembling a few other pieces), and... I am really tired of Allen wrenches. They look so harmless and simple and helpful, but you are going to drop that shit every half turn and you know it.

This is hilarious and amazing. My only nitpick is that the crab cake on the right should be part of a radar image, because a tornado warning doesn't always mean one is on the ground... but sometimes just that one has only been spotted by radar (and it might not be on the ground).

Alright, PCA. Nice work. US is showing signs of life. Is it too little too late?

At least Gunnar is showing some life in this game.

Team USA is getting STOMPED! Good for Team Italy. But wouldn't mind seeing our boys come back and win this one.

Me, an Orioles fan (moved away pre-Ravens; am still Colts fan), every time some major Ravens news explodes on my feed.

Witt Jr. with his second time on base for the night. It IS possible to wish Gunnar had started but also appreciate Witt. The U.S. team just has two badass young shortstops. Now... why one of them can't play 2nd or 3rd so they're both in the game... that's a different story.

Bobby Witt's glove definitely heard all us Orioles fans complaining about Gunnar not getting the start.
