Throwback Thursday to my writing days. I was particularly proud of this one, an experimental piece that put you, the reader, into the mind of Billy Beane after the 2014-2016 franchise meltdown. You'll probably enjoy it if you're a lifetime A's fan

Finally finished Hollow Knight Silksong. An amazing game. Probably a clean 10/10. Enjoyed every minute, including the hours I spent on the last boss. Thank you for everything Team Cherry.

How about we shut down the government for this very popular and specific goal and then, hear me out, we hold out for like a month and a half and then, ok this part is important, after a watershed election where we ran the table, ONLY THEN, fold and don't get the one thing we said we wanted.

I don't think Al Michaels is capable of saying Darnell Washington's name without preceding it with the phrase "Big man"

The dichotomy of Steam User Reviews:
A positive review purely based on the fact that the piece of paper says it runs well on Steam Deck.
A negative review with what appears fully fleshed out take based on 0.1 (6 minutes) of gameplay.

What are we even doing here, gamers.

Every day we get closer to peak prospect lists

This is the key point here. There's just no real incentive from an ownership standpoint to win, outside of them just wanting to inherently. When Baseball teams are just naturally profitable, ownership groups are just going to act more like Private Equity firms.
I don’t know how you fix a sport where almost everyone is turning a massive profit regardless of the win/loss record

Baseball Card was the carry here, but this was a really wild and fun way to win Gold Stake.

On a roll lately. Orange Stake. Mostly posting because negative Chicot looks cool.
