To every Blue Jays fan, whether your first post was #WANTITALL in these playoffs or you remember a time where Fred Lewis was leading off a game that featured Randy Ruiz, cherish this moment. I'll be with you a mile away from the 'Dome.

OK. Blue Jays. Let's. Play. Ball. 7/7

For decades, the Blue Jays had the moniker of "perpetual 4th-place team" in a division built to devour dreams and dish out disappointment. Today, they have the chance to win the World Series and prove they're the best baseball team on the planet. 6/7

While I moved on to places that pay living wages (FanSided, eat your heart out), I never stopped following the love responsible for my entire career. Names like Gift Ngoepe, Reed Johnson, Gustavo Chacin, and Junior Felix were precursors to today's Bargers and Clements. 5/7

Without support from @bluejayhunter.com, @taoofstieb.bsky.social , @kodiakroland.bsky.social, others, and a site that gave @keeganmatheson.bsky.social his start, I'd never have had the support and drive to write about the team I loved for $0. To pour my heart into a team while on social services 4/7

"The Toronto Blue Jays have not made the playoffs since they won it all in 1993, and will not make it again this year." Decades of heartbreak dripping from the pen to the paper like venom, biting back at a team that traded in failure while trying to prove my writing "merits." 3/7

My first post? A late-season series preview in a lackluster Jays season of letdowns. McGowan injured his shoulder. Morrow, Drabek, and Hutchison all got injured over the span of four games. Litsch succumbed to zombie arm from a PRP injection. The lede? An understatement. 2/7

"Everything that could have gone wrong, has gone wrong."

Those were the first words I ever "professionally" wrote for Jays Journal on Sept. 27, 2012, as a 22-year-old fool covering the @bluejays.com after filling a position posted on Drunk Jays Fan (!) by @stoeten.bsky.social. 1/7

me to my brain reminding me of all my past mistakes before going to sleep

One of the biggest reasons I'm not heavily involved in reality TV anymore is because so many of its fans take things way too personally or parasocially.

Most of the glaring criticisms made within fandoms have an obvious tilt that can be summed up, at its core, with "it should have been me on TV!"

The streets were not ready, my friends.

It's going to be a long week of posting bangers in chats that don't get the flow until Northernlion comes back.

Watching @northernlionlp.bsky.social got me cooked, mannn
