I thought a gun was mandatory equipment in case of Moose Potential?

OK so I didn't do the exact math, but looking at the roster I saw 3 players actually born & raised in Italy. The rest were born in the US.

The main difference = the Italian football team has actual Italians on it. The Italian baseball team is 98% Americans.

Me yesterday: "there's a robin in the tree outside!"

@woj.bsky.social: "foolish bird."

T-Rex: There was a time the only way to contact someone was by walking up and saying something in range of their face! Things were SIMPLE. T-Rex: But then we got cocky!! T-Rex: But then we got SO COCKY that we invented WRITING!

T-Rex: And suddenly people from all over could contact us, but at least they had to buy a stamp. Dromiceiomimus: But then we invented emails! Fully electric mails! T-Rex: And that was FREE, but at least they all came to one place. But then we invented DMs!

T-Rex: Now people can direct message us on approximately infinity different platforms! Utahraptor: Eugh! T-Rex: And I have neither the time nor inclination to be handling infinity things on infinity platforms! From now on, talk to me in real life, send me a text or an email, and that is IT. I'm done, Utahraptor! I'M DONE. Utahraptor: Right there with you, bud!

T-Rex: ...Wait. Wait wait wait. Did Dromiceiomimus call emails "electric mails" earlier? T-Rex: Because that's awesome and definitely what I'm calling them from now on??

writing: some downsides?? AND YES I KNOW I'M USING WRITING TO SAY "WRITING: SOME DOWNSIDES??"

Didn't see this in time, so Not Pictured: toasted buttered bagel & mug of black tea.

In our house it's called "Forest Fire Tea" and it's not allowed while I am present.

I'd missed the news of the passing of Roy Book Binder. Had the pleasure of helping present a show of his here in NHV years ago - he was a really nice guy and a heluva player. RIP.

(Laurie Anderson did midi gloves before Imogen Heap was even born, too.)

Oh yes absolutely!!!! But if this writer doesn't know who Kate Bush is I wouldn't expect him to know who Laurie Anderson is, either.

15 Women Who Pushed the Boundaries of Live Music Whether on the stage or behind the scenes, the history and future of live music is being shaped by a strong female presence, even if credit doesn't always get issued to such figures.

This article omits Kate Bush -- whose groundbreaking Tour Of Life invented of the wireless headset microphone years before Madonna's career began -- therefore it is invalid. (Points for being aware of Imogen Heap's existence tho.)

Calm down everybody, Team Italy is a bunch of Americans

AL East this whole tournament on Cornholio shit

Not only did team USA lose to Italy but now we have to do math, which is even worse.

Aarpn Judge strikes out to end the game LOLOLOLOLOL

On Expedition X? That’s how I found out about him. (He said that whole crew were very lovely people.)

Tiebreakers make my brain hurt :)

Eamus Catuli!!!

If Aaron Fucking Judge turns out to be the one to win this for us tonight, istg

There’s also the guy who lives in a trailer on the very northern shore who has been searching for Nessie full-time for the past 30 years. He makes & adorable wee Nessie figurines out of the lake mud & sells them to support himself. Fascinating chap.

Yep.

Boom! Had a great ight show over the skyline tonight. Here’s my first big lightning shot of the season.

This is a 2-frame composite. Best as I can tell, two large, branching bolts struck the eastern antenna mast of the Hancock. #wxsky #ilwx

a guy named roman doing something to team italy is *chef's kiss*

I’m sure the Dodgers will be getting him from the Red Sox in exchange for absolutely nothing any day now.

It’s been getting nailed repeatedly for the past 7+ hours. It got knocked over this morning HDT & it was a while before they were able to get it pointed the right way again.

98% of them were born & raised in the NY metro.

There has been a lot of confusion. The Fox commentator has spent way too much time tonight trying to explain all this to John Smoltz.

They need to beat Italy tonight, which isn't looking likely. In which case they need a combination of things to happen in the Italy-Mexico game tomorrow.
