re: “Why use Claude to help build a vinyl collection?” Why use Google search to find books you might enjoy? Why find recs on Goodreads? Why trust “You might also like” suggestions? Just talk to a friend instead. Just go to the library and ask a librarian. Computer bad.

Had a blast last night at Boswell for the launch of DOG'S DAY! If you missed it, you can still pop in and get a signed copy. It can also be found almost anywhere books are sold... prison commissaries, pornography stores, garage sales, pawn shops...

Del Crandall named Scott captain, but Alex Grammas stripped him of the title in 1976. Grammas named Sal Bando captain during Spring Training in 1977 and Bando presumably held the honor through his retirement in 1981.

Every possession in football should start at the 1 yard line. You don’t start a book on page 45 and count it as finished if you get to the end.

Why come they call it ‘grounding’ when it’s on purpose but ‘incomplete’ when it’s on accident? someone needs to address this.

The Brewers can clinch tomorrow and knock the Pirates under .500, which would give the Dodgers a losing record for the year v .500 or better teams, so clearly there’s a ton at stake here.

The Dodgers are barely over .500 against winning teams this year and having a losing record against the other NL teams currently in playoff spots.

the super bowl should work like mlb hall of fame voting does, where every few years they decide that no one will play in it. they'll still have the broadcast and everything, but the broadcast booth will fill three hours with "well you know, the super bowl is really hard to get to"
