Priest. I don't take social media seriously, and my low-effort posts prove it. Decentralize the Internet. Nostr Acct: https://bsky.app/profile/npub13tahtl9pjw9u5ycruqk84k6sfmkyljsr7y2pc4s840ctlm73fxeq3j6e08.momostr.pink.ap.brid.gy

Arise, fair nectar, and take your place among the stars. www.nytimes.com/2024/11/15/d...

Well, it's the second half and the Bears haven't embarrassed us yet, so at least there's that.

As much as I like to rag on Bluesky for not decentralizing, don't sleep on what others have built to fill some gaps.

Not feeling well, so rewatching Tarkovsky's brilliant "Stalker." Nothing like befuddling movies to heal what ails.

Hah, and you think your Amazon order is delayed.

What do I miss living south of I-80? One thing, and precisely one thing only: good hot dogs. These murmurs of a Portillo's coming to the county haven't amounted to anything yet.

Bluesky just received massive funding from a crypto financier, so uh... that's gotta not be good.

The White Sox have lost their 120th game, tying the '62 Mets for the most ever. It's been a long road, but I knew they could do it. The record will be all theirs this week.

Congratulations on these very centralized (cough) efforts.

Amazing, how the White Sox's best pitcher makes them even worse: his pitch count is limited due to age/experience, so out he goes in the 2nd inning, and in comes one of the worst bullpens ever devised. It's an auto-loss, every time.

How everyone ought to view this team: I wouldn't be surprised if you're statistically more likely to get struck by lightning than to ever witness a team this bad again. A cause for joy.

Hate-watching the Packers is so much easier in the Love era.

Hate to be that guy, BUT: for our new Brazilian friends, there's nothing stopping a judge from doing the exact same thing here. Yet.

The 1899 Cleveland Spiders. The 1962 New York Mets. The 2003 Detroit Tigers. The 2024 Chicago White Sox. The only teams to lose 100 games before September. In their expansion year, the ’62 Mets became the losingest team in modern baseball history. The ’24 […] [Original post on coracle.social]

Well earned, unfortunately. I loved the story outline, but an absolute masterclass in bad writing and lore development. Give the rest of the story to a competent author for a novel, please. I'd read it. www.indiewire.com/news/breakin...

History for this White Sox team is inevitable.

Clarefontaine paper is just the best. I've scrawled across some pretty good stuff, but nothing beats it. Pencils, pens, whatever.

Saw "Twisters." Good gravy, if this storm frequency were reality, Oklahoma would be totally destroyed. That fantasy is going a little too far, even for a Nebraska boy.

1:20p on Fridays is one of the coolest traditions in baseball. Wish the Cubs still played 'em all during the day.

Have said for many years that Post Malone's heart and talent is with alt-country/rock, and that he was wasting his talent chasing pop trends. F-1 Trillion is almost an excellent album, if not a bit overproduced in the Nashville Country way. But hey, it's a start.
