Cryin' on a Wednesday. This guy should be put in a clubhouse or in a commentary booth (if he so desires) immediately. This can't be the end of Joey and baseball.

Joey Votto Announces Retirement

Joey Votto Announces Retirementwww.mlbtraderumors.com Joey Votto, who had been on a minor league contract with the Blue Jays, announced on Instagram that he has

Philippe Escargot will outlast us all.

it’s kind of wild that keenan thompson has been a top tier on screen comedian for like, 30 years and he’s only in his mid-40s

FACT CHECK: This claim is exaggerated. Henry II did not identify the "turbulent priest" by name, nor did he specify the meaning of "rid."

Playing WoW after 10 years out of the game is absurd. I leveled up to 10 in an hour and poof, I have a griffon mount?? Back in my day you had to GRIND TO 40 and PAY A ZILLION GOLD and decide between two colors of plain old pony!!!

Didn't realize they were poly, grats!!

Barack Obama and Vice President Kamala Harris's husband, Doug Emhoff, are set to address the Democratic National Convention on Tuesday, a day after President Biden closed the first night with a fiery speech. Here's what else to watch for on Day 2.

What to Expect at the Democratic National Convention in Chicagowww.nytimes.com On Day 2, Barack Obama, the nation’s first Black president, is expected to deliver soaring oratory as he implores the United States to elect its first Black female president.

Just did the bedtime walk with the dogs and thought, for the first time in 4 months, "I wish I had a JACKET." 🍂🍁

Heartbreaking: affable coworker just insisted he's the "least political guy ever."

I am sure the weather in this one particular spot is FINE, just fine.

*posts a mild banger and then immediately departs on an 8-hour road trip*

Be your partner's Gomez, not their Darrin.

I am in the same room as Caitlin Clark!!

Be your partner's Gomez, not their Darrin.

Man, I loved Bewitched as a kid, but rewatching an episode just now, I realized that I was always— ALWAYS— hoping that Darrin would realize how wrong he was for trying to make Samantha reduce herself for him.

The saddest thing is that none of these people have ever had a friend to lightly tease them about stuff.

Walz's joke about midwestern white guy tacos has triggered the very pale and pallid snowflakes, who are all aflutter.

Yeah, I do, Etsy dressmaker, but thanks for checking??

Stayed a few extra mins to help a distressed customer with work stuff, shared my cookies to help her calm down, and when I got home there was A LARGE DENOMINATION BILL stuffed in the box. She KNOWS I can't accept tips so she hid it. Of all the sneaky underhanded kindnesses!!!

If you can't get your act together, can't wake up on time or turn in assignments or remember midterm dates, and you have no idea why, you're not a failure! But it's time to make an appointment at the university clinic for depression and ADHD tests. Trust me on this one.

Hey academicsky: Lots of new students starting college these weeks. What's your top tip for them? Mine: going to class prepared and focused is the absolute most efficient use of your time. You'll do 2-3x the work trying to study what was covered on your own. The professor is paid for a reason.

Oh, you want me to *work* today? Don't you know we got a Veilguard release trailer?!?!

Just saw a doe with THREE fawns in my yard, and I'm pretty sure one of them was my orphaned Bambi. The relief I feel is making me almost as teary as the worry was.

Today we got "it's a series of two word titles and his first name is Stanford," and within 5 minutes the two of us on duty had deduced that it was John SANDFORD and sent her on the way with a book. It's SO fulfilling, honestly.

Discworld QOTD, from Going Postal

(Cw: animal death) Homeownership achievement unlocked: call police to haul away the deer carcass from your backyard. (Yes, I asked them *and* the DNR if they were testing for CWD, and the answer was "nope," so that's fine I guess.)

Customer came in today to scold me because I recommended the Temeraire books and he'd run out of them. Yeah bud we all feel that way, just go back to book 1 and you'll feel better.

If an author talks about their book it's like throwing a stone in mud. Bit of a splat but no great impact. If a reader talks about that book it's like throwing a stone in a lake. Decent splash and ripples that go for miles. Please, folks - talk about the books you love. Your power is magnificent.

Anti-gif pedantry: Pronounce it however you want, but don't pretend that acronyms have to be pronounced like the letters in the original phrase.

What would your pedantry bot be, friends?

I could chew on that cat I would spit out the fur But it climbed up a tree Like it was a squirrel... #DogSongs youtu.be/FEHQnTXC3SI?...

Mom called at 2am to tell me there's aurora. I have more light pollution, so I couldn't see it (or any Perseids, so far), but I love that she wanted me to have the chance.

My hobby is rolling up to trivia with some friends, laying waste to all competition, and riding off into the sunset, never to be seen again.

Oh this Reds-Marlins 10th inning is the gift that keeps on giving. The Marlins walked in a run, hit a batter for another run, collided in the outfield and dropped a fly for ANOTHER run...I honestly have lost track of the actual score at this point.

Taking my work break to watch a former schoolmate play Olympic volleyball and scream into my hands about service faults. Normal day.

In 2004 our university GSA sold shirts that said, "Gay? Fine by me!" which in retrospect is absurdly twee and ally-centered, but it WAS the start of a break from the DADT style of midwestern queer tolerance/avoidance.

It's wild how even the mainstream PRO-LGBTQ+ position in the 90s was "just don't talk about it and we'll leave you alone"

Possibly the most damning Vance fact for Millennial nerds: If he's standing that close to an aircraft engine, he has NOT seen Firefly.

Out on the town having the time of my life with a bunch of friends. They're all just out of frame, laughing too.

It's true. I went to the Art Institute, not knowing they had Seurat's "A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte," and when I saw it I cried a little.

Aster is glaring at me to go to bed so I'll make this quick: if you're ever in Chicago for an extended period of time, go to the Museum of Science and Industry, the Field Museum of Natural History, and the Art Institute of Chicago. They are WORLD CLASS Museums.

This week-old lil shit just looked in my window, made eye contact, and did the warning stomp at me.
