My fellow Baltimoreans, this hurt too much.
I’m gonna have to take a leave of absence from Ravens fandom for a year or two. I can’t go on like this. The guys really did it all tonight. To lose that way is crushing. I feel for them. 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
But I need to protect my heart. Lawd.

I guess I'm petty enough to be happy that the ghost of the Falcons reached from beyond the grave of playoff elimination to knock the Buccaneers out of it too by beating the Saints. 😂

Today I was talking to my boss about getting some time off around the anniversary of Butterbean's death, and I just lost it. I don't expect I'll ever "get over" her, and hope I never do.

A salute to this Ravens squad. I was beginning to doubt they'd find a way to blow this one, but they dug deep. Cursed team.

This has bothered me since I've seen it. I work in clothing retail where there is a kids section, and there are NO pictures of children in underwear, not even on the packaged underwear for product information purposes. Maybe it's different at other stores. I hope not. Because…

Every time one of Musk's cons starts to get stale, he just ups the ante with something shinier & more farfetched. Full self-driving? No, now it's robotaxis! No, now it's Optimus! Then investors say shit like, “The car is to Tesla what the book was to Amazon.” But Amazon actually delivered the books!
