Later, when I was old enough to worry about ear damage, friends gifted us tix to gf’s favorite singer. I returned the favor, wearing earplugs. Heard the whole concert just fine. And everyone rejoiced.
Damn. No need to wonder about the “at the time.” My gf, who neither liked nor understood his music, took me to his first E Street reunion tour at the meadowlands for a big birthday. Said she looked at it as an anthropological journey, loved watching the audience.
Don’t know if this is because it’s a good movie, but I sobbed so hard at Field of Dreams that I’ll never go near it again
Welcome back GKR! @snytv.bsky.social
Keith: I understand they have underwater drones now
Gary: Well, that wouldn’t work very well in baseball.
Hey - that’s tough work. The wear and tear on the fingers…
He’ll keep you laughing, for sure!
“Take Me Out to the Ballgame” sung as a lullaby always calmed my late pup. Then again, her name was Fenway.
Looking forward to the first GKR game as they begin their third decade together! #LGM

Calling the 3-run scoring play, Howie had Alonso following Soto. Sigh. But Bichette’s not a bad replacement. @metsradio880.bsky.social #LGM
Happy Opening Day of the Baseball Season to all who celebrate. Especially the Mets fans #LGM

Also in England, it’s still the equivalent of our F-you single finger, as archers (back in the way-back times) held them up to say, Nope you didn’t get me. I can still shoot
I hope that woman knew the shouts of “unamerican piece of sh’t” we’re not directed at her.
Thank you for today’s excursion into film history, and yours. Well worth the read.
Fascinating bit of LGBTQ history. 🧵
Many elected officials (and CEOs too) use speechwriters. It’s an effective use of their time. Would you rather have them governing or struggling with writers’ block?
This man is a first-class communicator. Also a great teacher. #stpatricksday
Clearly she never heard the suspicion that if you touch an Oscar before you win one, you will never win one.
Not to mention it wasn’t released until 2026, so even if it were the greatest masterpiece ever filmed, it wasn’t eligible this year
Yes, the Dalton School in NYC. Barr’s father hired Epstein to teach math.
What’s the reasoning behind this?
At #awp26, loving all the queer panels: publishers, poets using humor, Dorothy Allison memories. But my kingdom for a chair massage! #wueerwriters

The problem with mass firings of ICE agents is that you then create a massive pool of unemployed, violent people. Agree absolutely ICE must be stopped, dismantled, crushed. But also plan for what’s next.
This is where all the bogus anti-trans rhetoric has gotten us. Who has ever been harmed by sharing a highway with a trans person?
I understand Tourette’s is a disability, but before he said the word, it had to be in his mind. That’s my challenge with this.
Agreed. And working it, I promise
You know, it’s okay to just pass by and not comment. It’s a very different slog for us (the folks who invented racism) than for the folks impacted daily BY racism.
You mean people are supposed to read ALL the words?

Small red dog with white face shows of her feathered ears as well as her love of bow ties, this one grey with white and red baseballs printed on it.
Had to say goodbye to my sweet puppy today, just a couple of weeks shy of her 17th birthday. RIP Fenway.
