Sharing some top-level Phillies analysis with my dad, as you do
A text exchange with Dad suggesting the Phils should stop giving up runs and score more runs. Dad replies this is like Mattingly saying they need to play better baseball. In other words I could be manager

“11 sperm whales huddled together at the surface, strangely still and taking occasional shallow dives. After about an hour, the animals seemed to start thrashing, and a plume of blood reddened the water. The researchers feared trouble, maybe a shark attack. But it was something else.” WHALE DOULAS!

During the Olympics my social media was flooded with content and jokes about how all the events are just death-defying feats on ice and like...I REALLY hope you're all appreciating that the Paralympics are the same thing but on one leg or in a chair on one ski controlled with your abs and arms

The purest motive for a James Bond villain is profit. All other options are inferior. Sadistic delight enhances and elevates a profit motive. Revenge cheapens it.

Pre-Olympics PSA: For Your Eyes Only is partially set (and filmed) at Cortina D'Ampezzo. While it's a thoroughly middling Bond, it makes excellent, unusually extensive use of the Olympic facilities there! And it's currently on Netflix.

Worked with @juanpab.bsky.social @izzyjross.bsky.social @stopitkatie.bsky.social (with a clutch assist from @rahulbali.bsky.social) on this story about grants to help farmers and small businesses save on energy...except now the money is frozen grist.org/food-and-agr...

Thank you, @ejreports.bsky.social for localizing this story. "'A private company’s not going to put a gauge on the Ogeechee River or on Lazaretto Creek,' Watson said, naming two smaller waterways on Georgia’s coast. For nearby residents, though, such gauges are critical in the event of a flood."

I do think it's incredibly unfair that Instagram for MONTHS relentlessly fed me ads about the Importance of Being Earnest with Ncuti Gatwa and Hugh Skinner showing in US theaters but then none of those theaters turned out to be near me

I'm over on the other app posting a long thread about how history and reality are much more nuanced than you think because what am I if not a journalist and history major screaming futilely into a void like

Georgia was going to retire its coal plants, but then the data centers arrived. AI is pushing energy providers back to fossil fuels.

Last time the Eagles made the Super Bowl, my Amoroso's order arrived late and I was forced to serve roast pork and broccoli rabe on Publix rolls. This time, it has arrived early so I am forced to freeze the rolls. This is obviously a good omen, right?

There's a point late every workday when I get up to get water or go to the bathroom or something but because it's late in the afternoon, my dog thinks we're signing off and going for a walk. He gets up and stretches and then when I sit back down he's SO sad. The worst.
