lgm90.bsky.social @lgm90.bsky.social · 26/03/2026That’s fair. I pretty much only listen to radio feeds via the MLB iPhone app. 000
lgm90.bsky.social @lgm90.bsky.social · 26/03/2026This happened last season too. It did not feel right hearing Chicago-focused ads voiced by Pat Hughes during breaks in Red Sox games on WEEI. 100
lgm90.bsky.social @lgm90.bsky.social · 25/02/2026Well, I was 32, and probably the second oldest in my section, when I took that class. 100
lgm90.bsky.social @lgm90.bsky.social · 25/02/2026How could I forget reading this case in my torts class in law school? 110
lgm90.bsky.social @lgm90.bsky.social · 14/01/2026Definitely a British English thing. An American friend of mine in London once told me how odd that sounded to her. On the flip side, as a Brit now living in the US, it sounds so weird to me when I take my son to baseball or soccer and I hear someone say “listen to coach,” rather than “*the* coach” 000
lgm90.bsky.social @lgm90.bsky.social · 22/09/2025I lived 29 years in the UK and six years (so far) in the US and somehow I never knew Tylenol and paracetamol were the same thing 030
lgm90.bsky.social @lgm90.bsky.social · 21/07/2025I once saw someone say that Bluesky made them realize why TV comedy used to have laugh tracks, and I think about that fairly often 020

lgm90.bsky.social @lgm90.bsky.social · 06/07/2025I got the $1 trial for an article I was editing and it looks like it's still active for me, so I think I can help. 000
lgm90.bsky.social @lgm90.bsky.social · 03/07/2025It was the Queen Anne hotel in SF. This was 2017 but it appears to still be going. Not the kind of mental processing you're looking to do when you're coming off a 10-hour flight from London. 100
lgm90.bsky.social @lgm90.bsky.social · 02/07/2025I once inadvertently stayed in a Victorian-themed hotel in San Francisco and she looks like she’d be right at home in the second-floor hallway. 140
lgm90.bsky.social @lgm90.bsky.social · 27/06/2025I also—as someone who has lived in both countries—don't think the daily written press in the US drives the political agenda day-to-day in quite the same way that it does in the UK 041
lgm90.bsky.social @lgm90.bsky.social · 16/06/2025Probably wise, but as someone who just enjoys watching Ohtani do never-before-seen things, I'm all for it, so long as he is. 000
lgm90.bsky.social @lgm90.bsky.social · 09/06/2025I was spoiled a little (in terms of the traffic) because I moved to LA about six months before Covid hit, so for much of the three years I lived in LA it really wasn't bad. But when I moved there (from London) I remember thinking "How bad can it be?" about driving around the city and, er, yeah. 000
lgm90.bsky.social @lgm90.bsky.social · 06/06/2025Checks out. I know for a fact that the 4pm AA flight to ORD was boarded before they announced it was delayed to 8:15 and everyone was let back into the terminal 010
lgm90.bsky.social @lgm90.bsky.social · 23/05/2025I'm sure I've eaten similar at a country club wedding or two. 000
lgm90.bsky.social @lgm90.bsky.social · 23/05/2025Paul Joyce still the gold standard for something being a 100% done deal. 050
lgm90.bsky.social @lgm90.bsky.social · 19/05/2025I had to click through to check whether this was a bit or, in fact, real. Bravo. 010
lgm90.bsky.social @lgm90.bsky.social · 07/05/2025One of my most conservative-brained opinions, if you can call it that, is that the only things in a degree that should be graded (with the possible exception of a supervised thesis/dissertation) are final exams. No graded midterms, assignments, papers etc. Just one three-hour test for each class. 010
lgm90.bsky.social @lgm90.bsky.social · 21/04/2025I used to live close to downtown Culver City. It was a sad day when they brought back the full car capacity to Main St and Culver Blvd. 2260
lgm90.bsky.social @lgm90.bsky.social · 21/04/2025If you can think of more than one possibility then you're more imaginative than me. 210
lgm90.bsky.social @lgm90.bsky.social · 19/04/2025It’s 2025 and “open in app” still mostly means “open in App Store” 000
lgm90.bsky.social @lgm90.bsky.social · 14/04/2025The New Yorker using it (multiple times!) was particularly jarring. 110
lgm90.bsky.social @lgm90.bsky.social · 03/04/2025Could be a bad day for me to be flying to Louisville 010
lgm90.bsky.social @lgm90.bsky.social · 31/03/2025Absolutely. @sheehannewsletter.bsky.social has been banging this drum for a while now. 010
lgm90.bsky.social @lgm90.bsky.social · 27/03/2025Happy Opening Day! Any danger of being able to watch, @mlb.com? 010
lgm90.bsky.social @lgm90.bsky.social · 18/03/2025The New Yorker just updated (!) its style guide, but kept "per cent" intact. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/12/s... 000
lgm90.bsky.social @lgm90.bsky.social · 18/03/2025MLB should be ensuring that their broadcasters commit to on-site announcers when they award these games/contracts. 000
lgm90.bsky.social @lgm90.bsky.social · 18/03/2025I think people just think "Red Sox and Yankees regular for the last few years, World Series starter last October," and assume that means "good player" 010
lgm90.bsky.social @lgm90.bsky.social · 13/03/2025The two-factor authentication requirement wouldn’t be so frustrating if the website actually remembered that I’d logged in previously. 000
lgm90.bsky.social @lgm90.bsky.social · 12/03/2025Also, I think there just aren't enough stories using the word "corrupt[ion]" to describe what's going on. 040
lgm90.bsky.social @lgm90.bsky.social · 11/03/2025Always funny to see British commentators discovering the WSJ opinion section for the first time. 110
lgm90.bsky.social @lgm90.bsky.social · 11/03/2025If I ran an airline I’d be tempted to give everyone checked bags for free but charge for carry-ons, in the hope you’d deter people like this and generally speed up the whole boarding process. 1320

lgm90.bsky.social @lgm90.bsky.social · 07/03/2025Someone at the hospital called us on the phone in our room the day after the birth and I handled it in about five minutes. Everything then came in the mail in due course. 010
lgm90.bsky.social @lgm90.bsky.social · 05/03/2025Am I misremembering or did the emergence of “contactless delivery” during Covid absolutely ruin the last stage of every delivery. I can’t remember the last time someone actually handed me a delivery at my front door that didn’t require a signature unless I happen to see them coming and meet them. 120
lgm90.bsky.social @lgm90.bsky.social · 04/03/2025Biggest issue for me is that I cannot get the iPad app/Safari plugin to trigger Face ID, so I have to enter my password every time. Otherwise, I quite like it. I'd like a reason to switch to Apple Passwords, but it's probably not a bad thing to have it sit independent of my Apple account. 000
lgm90.bsky.social @lgm90.bsky.social · 03/03/2025Kind of astonishing that anyone with half a brain relies on this stuff for important work (court briefs, graded papers, etc.) 000
lgm90.bsky.social @lgm90.bsky.social · 03/03/2025I'm trying to use ChatGPT for a bit of research/inspiration, and when I ask for it to provide sources with its responses it is providing URLs that it subsequently tells me are illustrative examples and that its answer was, in fact, based on "internal training data and general knowledge of the topic" 100
lgm90.bsky.social @lgm90.bsky.social · 19/02/2025As a current 3L I have never heard of this kind of thing—student groups, sure, but not faculty—but I am now very concerned that it might exist at my school 100
lgm90.bsky.social @lgm90.bsky.social · 14/02/2025“to spare your inbox” has shown incredible staying power. You’d think some alternative would have taken hold after all these years, but no 010
