Further evidence, as if it's needed, that I live in a shithole state.

It's unlikely, but mathematically possible for the Mariners, Rangers, and Astros to do the funniest thing. If the Ms win their remaining four games, and the Rangers and Stros lose their remaining four, they'd all tie for first with records of 78-84.

Learned today of the passing of Roberta Maguire. Like Viola Spolin's legacy in Chicago improv, Seattle improv owes more to Roberta than perhaps anyone else. Rest in Power and Peace.

Love this song, and great to hear from its originator. In my memory, I first heard it by Beru Revue, but damned if I can find such a recording. #ResistanceSongs

I suspect some folks are dunking on Bill for this, but he comes from good stock. His mother was the first female president of King County's United Way, the first woman to chair the national United Way’s executive committee. The highest giving tier at UWKC was named for her.

Dammit. First Dolly, now Tim Curry?! Nope, nope, nope. *sigh* As #ResistanceSongs go, we all know this one. www.youtube.com/watch?v=JWoY... I don't even wanna think about who might be #3.

Took a few days off to go to #ImprovCon, which was so full of love. And now, the world's lost a woman who radiated love in everything she did. Not a fair trade. Here's one of her #ResistanceSongs. www.youtube.com/watch?v=0QJX...

I'm mostly fine if the Mariners don't make the postseason this year. They don't really deserve to. But could it at least be the Rangers instead of the Asstros?!

I thought, a while back, of starting an account for Resistance Song of the Day, but I didn't trust myself to post daily, so it never happened. So I'm just gonna occasionally post videos with the hashtag #resistancesongs. Feel free to jump in. Here's the first. youtu.be/-DGY9HvChXk?...

Love the shout-out to MO at the end of this, but with a caveat: MO voters have voted against GOP interests on items like this for years, but then vote back in the same GOP assholes who override exactly how the electorate voted.

The best thing about ads for gambling apps is that muting them, the only message is the warning text about gambling addiction. They become PSAs that happen to have silent bro-dudes on the screen.

This is one of the most quotable essays I've read in a while. Here's one: "That’s the meat of AI technology: scraped flesh from fellow humans, molded until it’s unrecognizable, slick like plastic skin." And yeah, I'm Gen X. Why do you ask?

Cramer is late to the party in recognizing this. The Big 7 have been a massive financing circle jerk for a while now.
