Today in me being insufferable: A number of the zines and band posters inside that record shop, uh, belonged to me. The HF production design team borrowed* them from myself and other Chicago music scene/record store folks. The More You Know etc [*no I didn't get paid lol, I did it For the Culture]

Another neighbor foster will be at @pawschicago.bsky.social in the next few days, this tiny kitten is extra small, looks like Halloween and her name is Cappuccino. If you're in Chicago and looking for a tiny pal please keep an eye on their website

All four pictures are of a tiny kitten with orange and black patchy coloring, she is very small and looks a bit like a cute alien

I keep seeing people say this, but the Astros have had Satan on their side for a decade, and who do you really trust to deliver in These Times. bsky.app/profile/herr...

Been a while since the White Sox won the first game of a postseason series. I remember this feeling. It's a nice feeling.

Munetaka Murakami on how he deals with high pressure situations like the postseason:

"I think it’s important to just be honest with yourself about how you’re feeling in that moment. If you’re nervous, I don’t think you need to force yourself to not be nervous. And if you’re feeling the pressure, you don’t need to convince yourself that you’re not. What’s most important is to recognize and sort through those feelings, even while you’re out there on the field, and still be able to compete calmly. More than anything, I think it’s about trusting the preparation you’ve put in and everything you’ve experienced and fought through over the past year, and just continuing to do that without changing anything. That’s what I think is most important.”

Bro, the Pope sent the White Sox letter, they’re going to the World Series.

Letter:

To Jerry Reinsdorf
Chairman of the Chicago White Sox
was pleased to receive the kind letter that you sent following the game that took place at Rate Field on August 11, 2026. I am most grateful for this thoughtful gesture.
As I have noted,
"sport can truly become a school of life,
where all can learn that abundance does not come from victory at any cost, but from sharing, from respecting others and from the joy of walking together" (Letter Life in Abundance, 6 February
2026).
In this spirit, it is my hope that the White Sox will
continue to foster
bonds of friendship
and solidarity among
people, and thus bear hopeful witness to the possibility of living and working together in peace.
With
these sentiments, I willingly invoke the Almighty's
abundant blessings upon you and your loved ones.
From the Vatican, 9 September 2026
Pope Leo XIV

I am a little bonkers about food waste. But sometimes that means I will make a thing out of leftover other things and never end up using all of the new thing. Today those things are charred leek oil and blueberry miso hot sauce. So...what would you use those things for, if you had them?
