The only upside of this season ending so early? No more Byrna Less Lethal radio commercials.

Phillies. I can't deal with this right now. Next week is the most stressful week of my year and if I don't have baseball because our bullpen can't string 3 innings together to save their lives... It's not gonna be good.

Forgot how hard it is to get up for a run when it's still dark outside. At least it's not 80 degrees.

Huskies, I am sorry. But after listening to all 9 innings of that Phillies debacle I have had enough failure for one day. Not going to stay up till 2 AM to watch you continue to choke.

I am supposed to be going to tomorrow's Phillies game but with the massive nor'easter coming at any time and the way they've fallen apart the last few weeks... It's not looking good. With the lockout looming this may be my last baseball game in quite a while. Not how I wanted this season to end.

Today one of my coworkers said "I think I've dropped a few balls, but that's a Monday problem at this point" and I responded with "I'm basically standing in a ball pit at this point." ...if you wanted to know how Fall Publishing is going.

Reading MAD EDEN from the NBA list (fantastic). I looked up their previous book, from 2022, the publisher page cites 10 reviews etc excluding trades. MAD EDEN’s page cites… two. (Both from listicles I think.) It’s impossible to overstate how extreme the review crisis is, or how fast it happened.

Just spent 15 minutes yelling at Ted Cruz on College Gameday before 10 AM and that's not okay. The false binary of players earning money for playing their sport does not hurt sports in general! It doesn't hurt women's sports! I am angry! It's too early to be this pissed!

Rereading SWORDHEART by @tkingfisher.com in order to start DAGGERBOUND and I always forget how much I love this universe. Honestly, if I could join the Temple of the White Rat I might be more interested in religion.

People far, far richer than she was spend their entire lives fighting not to pay more taxes on their luxury planes, and she was like, “You need band uniforms? Medical care? Books? A vaccine? Help after a natural disaster? I GOT MONEY.”

Already a Natasha Pulley stan, but the narrator of her new book THE SALT KING sounds like Daniel Radcliffe in my brain so it's like being read a book by my childhood without giving any money to the evil TERF.

I love this so much. It was true for me, and it's true for the books I'm trying to get into the hands of more readers. Central PA schools were notoriously terrible at SexEd and I know they were MUCH better than other parts of the country. bookriot.com/ya-romance-e...

Why is it that whenever the psychiatrist asks how your mood has been and you respond with "pretty good actually" that you always hit the skids within like 48 hours? I swear. Monday: Pretty good actually Wednesday: why should I even get out of bed today

Obviously, Springsteen's Born in the USA is #1 on the list of "Songs You Think Are Patriotic Until You Actually Listen To The Lyrics" but I would argue Martina McBride's Independence Day is a close second.

So there was a book one of my direct reports was working on and I distinctly remember back in December saying "No one in America even knows that Cape Verde is a country, let alone where it is." Took 8 months but I am officially full of shit.

I absolutely do not know how to turn the anxiety valve down during USMNT games. I have been conditioned for the other shoe to drop since 2002. My brain is like "well of course the USWNT is going to win" and "of course the USMNT is going to fuck it up" What do I do when that's no longer true?!

Do we think we could stop dropping bombs on oil producing countries for just a second? Obviously, preferably, I would like for the US to stop dropping bombs on all countries. But I also have flights to book for the rest of 2026 and good goddamn is everything painfully expensive right now.
