My goodness, what an incredible moment. After Justin Verlander secured the final out of his career, Tigers manager A.J. Hinch came out of the dugout...to summon Verlander's daughter out to embrace her dad on the mound.

To test Muse, I experimented with it nonstop for two weeks, giving over many aspects of my life to it. I had to trust Muse with my most personal data, which included connecting it to my bank accounts and email. Then I had it perform dozens of day-to-day tasks, including ordering my groceries, scheduling my meetings and setting my fantasy football lineups.

i do not think people should be allowed to choose only the good seasons of anthology series on the silly ny times tv show ballot. if i have to live with the dan harmon-less seasons of community, you're stuck with the shitty true detective seasons! be bold!

the main thing that surprised me about 'life of m' was how empty or flat out wrong basically every observation about other people or the wider world felt. not particularly interesting or good to read but it did have a uniquely alienating effect lol
