Eurorack, music, games, sports. Leftist. He/Him. Yes, I'm aware of what's going on. No, I'm not going to post about it. Everyone else is, and neither you nor I need more of that.

This probably says something about me, but I don't think I've ever had a hero, per se. Definitely people whose work I admire, but hero? That feels like a high bar.

PLU Softball's goodbye ceremony to outgoing seniors is a tear-jerker. I dunno if I'll make it through next year.

Well, you can't win EVERY game....

Powell's.

A little purr for you from the galaxy far, far away. (Sound on) 🐈‍⬛🤍 #cat #purr #maythe4thbewithyou

Very happy the M's won, and another series! Eight in a row! And welcome back Matt Brash! I feel like we struggle a bit vs. lefties, though. Looking forward to DMo coming back.

The Donovan Solano experiment can end any time.

Watch the catcher. Classic.

That's just good parenting right there.

I don't remember who made the post that made me open a tab of Happy Rhodes' bandcamp page. But holy shit. I am _extremely_ picky about vocals. 90% of what I listen to is instrumental. But this is an otherworldly voice. Thank you, whoever you were. happyrhodes7d.bandcamp.com/music

Angels bullpen this week: Fri: 8-run 9th Thur: 5-run 8th, 3-run 9th Wed: 6-run 7th Tues: 2-run 7th

Well, that was fun! #TridentsUp

Dammit. Wanted the shutout.

As long as I've been watching the Mariners (and we're around 40 years now), I don't think I've ever heard the clubhouse carpet fire story before.

I think this is the physically smallest outfield we can possibly put out there. Mastrubuoni in left, Taylor in center, Thomas in right.

Julioooooooooooooooooooo!!!!

Bats Bats Bats!!!! Love this! #TridentsUp

Jeez, Cal! That ball had a family!

My #MLBPlayerRespect choice for the #SEAvsTEX series goes to Jonah Heim. IIRC, he hit walkoffs against the M's two consecutive days a couple years ago, and I still fear him coming to the plate against us in clutch situations.

I really can't complain too much about how my life has turned out. One thing I regret, however, is that I didn't take the chance on working on the Human Genome Project coming out of college. Because I didn't want to live in Hanford. But if that had happened, my life would be completely different.

This is one of the best baseball action shots I've ever seen.

Running out of bagels AND cream cheese at the same time is some god-tier synchronicity.

A chat on discord caused me to do a little research. Of the last 7 pitchers to win 20 games in a season (back to 2018), 5 of them were injured the next season. Of the two that weren't, one is Gerrit Cole who missed half of 2024 and all this year. The other is out of the game for DV and SA. (Urias)

The Angels don't play another game outside the state of California until May 30. Nearly the entire month in-state.

Staying in the Rock genre, because Jazz and Classical make it too easy. Fish's Weltschmerz Tangerine Dream's Optical Race Porcupine Tree's The Incident Vangelis' Blade Runner OST Kate Bush's Aerial GY!BE's ’ALLELUJAH! DON’T BEND! ASCEND! It's actually a bit shocking how difficult this is.

So many of the ones I looked at were 13-14 years after debut.

The White Sox are now 8-23. They've had ONE win with a margin under 3 runs. Their average winning margin is over 6.

I know it's a warm-ish day in the Portland area, but damn did that hot pastrami and mustard sandwich hit the spot.
