Warren Towers forever! A great look by @wbur.org’s @moranwriter.bsky.social at the 21st century makeover of the giant residence hall on the @bostonu.bsky.social campus. And stay for the quote by a Warren alum. 7B & 10A forever!

A screenshot from a WBUR article. The text reads: Some BU alumni can't wrap their heads around the transformation. WBUR Executive Producer Dan Guzman lived in Warren Towers for three years in the 1990s, and nearly blew a gasket when he heard about the adjustable thermostats. “That's not what Warren Towers should be about,” said Guzman. “ It's not supposed to be nice. That was part of the charm.”

Had a blast at the Garden today with @fusillithekid.bsky.social, @sararose37.bsky.social, and Mr. Sara Rose watching the cast of #Shoresy take on the Bruins alumni. Amazing how some YouTube jokes led to this.

Bring Nat, Miig, Ziig, and Laura Mohr next time!!!

Because the one about the moon landing has a few too many swear words for this very professional account (but I highly recommend you find it), this is the other one that lives rent free in my head:
A mock news story from The Onion. The headline reads "NEWS: Kitten Thinks Of Nothing But Murder All Day." Below it is a picture of a very innocent, wide-eyed looking gray kitten sitting on a plush white rug or carpet.

You will be visited by three spirits.

The three spirits:
A still from the movie “Clue” showing Col. Mustard (Martin Mull), Miss Scarlet (Leslie Ann Warren), and Prof. Plum (Michael McKeon) at a dinner table. They all have soup spoons in their right hands, paused halfway between their bowls and mouths, as they stare in confusion at the unseen speaker.

And yes I am familiar with the work of Miss Ivy Winterrrrrrs in Season 5.
A shot of Ivy Winters from RuPaul's Drag Race season 5. She is walking down the runway in a blonde wig with an orange dress that resembles a goldfish in a fun, campy way.

My desk now contains an amazing gift from coworker Katie Cole who (legally) grabbed me a pine cone from this year’s Tree For Boston, the annual Christmas tree given by the amazing people of Nova Scotia as a thank you gift.

I am infatuated with this joyous tradition:

A picture of tchotchkes on a work desk. Center is a small pine cone. There is also a Jacques Ze Whipper mug, a tin of Old Bay, and a small jar of white glitter I was given in order to throw in the face of my oppressors. That day hasn’t come… yet.

My kingdom for sports journalists to stop lumping Washington and Baltimore together with one “beltway.” There’s the Capital Beltway (95/495) and the Baltimore Beltway (695).

Also they are two very distinct metro areas, albeit less than an hour apart.

Yes I will die on this petty hill.
A screen shot from the Boston Globe’s website. The headline reads “Nationals, Orioles leadership changes see Beltway baseball teams turn to younger voices.” The byline is Peter Abraham. Below is a photo of the Nationals introducing new GM Paul Toboni. The lead sentence says “It has been an offseason of many changes on the Beltway.”

Huh. I really felt like I did better than this on today’s Immaculate Grid. Oh well.
A screen shot from the game “Immaculate Grid.” It shows a 3 by 3 grid of green squares. Below that text reads “Rarity Score: 135400.”

My goodness. This is poetry from @chelseajanes.bsky.social on last night’s NLCS Game 4 performance by Shohei Ohtani.

Gift link:

This is too good to be true with no reason to doubt it. This is the beginning of every baseball conversation and the end of the debate: Shohei Ohtani is the best baseball player who has ever played the game, the most talented hitter and pitcher of an era in which data and nutrition have made an everyman’s sport a game for superhumans. And Friday night, when he helped his Los Angeles Dodgers win the pennant with a 5-1 victory over the Milwaukee Brewers in Game 4 of the National League Championship Series, was his Mona Lisa.

My baseball-loving time line has a much different (and correct) definition of "smoke show."
A screen shot from Blue Sky of two consecutive posts. Kat, Ghost of HelenRuthsGhost: "Once again begging Ben McDonald to stop saying smokeshow." Linda Holmes: "There is an ESPN commentator insistent on referring to Mason Miller's pitching for the Padres as a "smoke show," and I need somebody to pass him a note."

Thanks to the amazing staff at the Commonwealth Avenue Starbucks for all the coffee and smiles over the years. It’s one of nearly two dozen Boston-area stores where workers got just a couple of days’ notice they were being shut down & laid off.

Big, if true, for the Nationals. (h/t @spencernusbaum.bsky.social)
A screen shot of the Washington Nationals TV broadcast. Josh Bell, #19, has his back to the viewer. On the bottom left is a graphic which says KEYS TO THE GAME / BRAVES vs NATIONALS. The two points are "Don't Chase" and "Score More Than The Other Team."
