fuck it, sign him

Excerpted from Sportsnet article, text only:
Carter, who ended the first World Series title with the ball in his glove, the second with a ball off his bat, will now connect generations in a new way with a statue of his celebration after taking Mitch Williams deep, standing by the southeast corner of Rogers Centre.

“When I go to that clubhouse, I'm talking to the guys and bringing a lot of fun and excitement and cheering those guys on because to me, we're still teammates,” he said. “When Vlad came out and gave me the home run jacket, I mean, I was ready to put the uniform on and go hit. I could probably hit. I can't run. But I could probably still hit. We're all intertwined together, and what they did last year was great. But now they have to get to that next step because second place is not good enough.”

Well, my mealy-mouthed 'friend', in order for that to *not* have been what you were saying, schumer's enthusiasm would have needed to be in any way relevant to what I was saying. It wasn't.

"A lot of people like to act like Schumer was behind Platner enthusiastically as opposed to only when it was a fait accompli and also Platner isn't Muslim. They shouldn't, it's dishonest."

leftist darling chuck schumer. like forget whatever podcast guys, you don't get to say "he wasn't with us" when the senate minority leader endorsed him until, uh, today.

also, from the article about this. there is no mystery about when this occurred, simply precisely why.

text:
Gingras called up Mahdi Khelfaoui, a fellow historian of science at UQ Trois-Rivières. “There’s something fishy,” Gingras said. The papers, both quietly retracted in 2011, originally appeared in the early 1940s in Naturwissenschaften, a German journal now owned by publishing giant Springer Nature. After some sleuthing, Khelfaoui determined one of the Planck pieces, a philosophical essay from 1942 titled “Sinn und

it is time for snail content

a picture of two snails hanging out on the side of a tree. the background is a forest lost in bokeh. a slim tree rises from the left corner of the picture and has a little fork about halfway up the picture. the left branch leaves the frame. the right fork goes up at an angle to leave the frame through the top, dead centre. the branches are a couple fingers wide.

clinging to the side of the branch at about the centre of the picture are two snail shells; both of their bodies face away and are not really visible. one is full grown, about the size of a us/canada quarter projected out as a sphere. pressed right below that snail is an absolutely tiny one. if the bigger one is the size of a quarter, the small one (baby?) is about half a dime.

longe

a view from behind a cat's shoulder. she's stretched out in a way that is long but also foreshortened and her front paws are doing the bunny thing. she's calico but her white underside is most of what's visible.

neongrey@neongrey· Jun 9

hooray! we lost! I learned it's very hard to actually hit the ball!

shot from a baseball game. a blue jay is at the bat. he will not hit the ball.

youtube said to me, well, I have something with a lot of stories and a lot of math. hear me out here, have you ever considered... this? And I said no, but I suppose I will click a couple videos. and that's how youtube tricked me into being right here

i love bridges

the bridge event from slay the spire 2 where you lose a card and pay an ever increasing hp cost to change out which card you lose. the current choice on screen is between Clumsy, a curse, and holding on for 3 HP, meaning on the first time it offered to remove something bad from me.

results not typical.

two cat feet side by side. one is an ordinary grey brown tabby foot and the other is white on the bottom with some orange cream, very calico like. both belong to the same cat.

I tell them how fancy their shiny purple feathers are looking today and take pictures

a large group of pigeons milling around a brick walkway with some decent sized rocks in the middle. there's a chain link fence in the background cordojijg) cordoning off some of the park. some pigeons are hanging out on it.

what a fuckin comparison, too! like a) fuck al franken, nothing of what he did was acceptable but b) afaiaa it didn't remotely approach, uh this

quoted from CNN article: A former staffer of Rep. Eric Swalwell, a leading Democratic candidate for California governor, says that the congressman raped her when she was heavily intoxicated and left her bruised and bleeding, an allegation Swalwell strongly denies.

“I was pushing him off of me, saying no,” the woman told CNN of the incident, which she said happened in 2024 after she had stopped working in Swalwell’s office. “He didn’t stop.”

currently being informed that the feeder absolutely did not go off an hour ago while I was out and she has ndver eaten before. I think I believe her. just look at how she's wasting away! all skin and bones!

An overweight calico cat stares into a room from the other side of a doorway. she has the kind of look on her face that people say looks murderous but bears no actual resemblance to the intent or state of the cat's emotions.

oh, usage 2c is also relevant ig

2.c.
1967–
slang. A young African American or Hispanic man, esp. one who is from an inner-city area or who is a member of a street gang. In later use also: a man or boy belonging to the hip-hop subculture (cf. sense 2b).

1967
The nurse nodded and the colored cat looked at her and began smiling... ‘Now, hon-nee, I may be dying and—’ ‘Don't put a brave act on with me, home-boy.’
P. Thomas, Down these Mean Streets xii. 114

1847 for this usage in the film, which is not precisely the same as the current usage, but it is related (there is another, slightly older version that just seems like a specifically masculine version of homebody, at least from eyeballing).

Quoting the OED. Formatting isn't exactly preserved from the images but i've done my best to keep the spirit of it:
2. Originally U.S. Also as a form of address.
2.a. 1861–
Chiefly U.S. and (later also) South African. A man or youth from one's home town, region, or neighbourhood; (also) a male from a background similar to one's own.

[In South African English partly after Xhosa umkhâya person from home, family member (< um-, class prefix denoting an animate being (e.g. a person) in the singular + ‑khâya home, abode, place of origin), and partly after its cognate Zulu umkhaya, in the same sense.]

1861 - "We welcome our cousins from the West, the pioneers of our New England institutions... We welcome the home boys, the New Englanders."
Independent (U.S.) 6 June 4/6

2.b. 1965–
slang. Originally esp. among urban black and Hispanic youths: a man or youth belonging to one's group of close friends; a member of one's gang. Frequently with possessive adjective.

(Often with admixture of sense 2a, referring to a group or gang originating from the same area or neighbourhood.)

(Since the early 1980s the term has become particularly strongly associated with hip-hop subculture.)

1965 - "What's th' long face fer, home boy?"
H. Rhodes, Chosen Few iii. 49

what a relief. it's great to see you back. Here's maddie and cassie doing what they do best!

two cats curled up into roughly beanlike shapes on a couch, presumably napping. Maddie, a brown tabby with one (1) calico paw (not pictured) is on the top of the image, and Cassie, a calico with tabby stripes on her coloured patches, is toward the bottom. they are sisters.

The "Cat Fud" Far Side cartoon-- a dog is hiding behind a washing machine inside a laundry room. The words "Cat fud" with arrows pointing towards an open dryer have been crudely written on the door, ground, and dryer door. A cat is looking dubiously into the open dryer. The dog has a thought bubble reading "Oh please, oh please..."

The words "Cat Fud" on the dryer has been replaced with "Prizes 4 Elon" and elon's head has been crudely pasted over the cat's head so he's looking into the dryer. The rest of the text is unchanged, including the other instances of 'cat fud'. look, i got places to be, ok.

neongrey@neongrey· Nov 18

hah. managed to fish up this old gem. so when *that* kind of thing never happened, or when people who knew this was impossible heard it... easy to see why it was called a hoax, at least.

The Year 2000 Problem as described by WXIA-TV, Atlanta, July 10, 1998:

"You open your eyes, slowly waking up. It's Saturday, January 1st, 2000. What time is it? You look at your bedside clock, but it's blank. Is the power off? You check your digital watch. It's blank, too. The coffee maker, which runs on computer microchips just like your wristwatch, doesn't work. The same for the microwave oven and the stove. Your three-year-old computer-controlled car won't start."

These were the exact words, transcribed from videotape.

oh, she has my sympathy, all right. my heart bleeds for her. But do I think it's inappropriate for her to experience even a fraction of the very thing she's made a career of enacting? Knowing she'll never make the connection? My heart will bleed until she drowns. I hope she chokes on it.
