The smell of smoking meat hangs in the air as you step out of your car, a signal of the work taking place inside Snyder’s German Sausage Haus in Yakima, where the day begins early and hardly ever stops. Story by @sararae-yhr.bsky.social, Explore editor at yakimaherald.com.
The same week the NYTimes was devoting its significant resources to producing this ridiculous piece about Lauren Sanchez Bezos's call for rich people to not worry and be happy, Ryan Hass, an independent journalist in Oregon, was investigating this horrifying story about a death in an Amazon plant.
Not having a very good mental day. Everyone seems to think their thing is the most important and don’t understand I’m only one person working on my section. Mistakes can and do happen but not just by me. Calling me a disappointment will not help anyone.

We mustn't dwell... no, not today. We CAN'T. Not on Rex Manning day!
Also… miss ya, babe!
I cherish these!
When @justicar.xyz made buttons!
Damn the man. Save the Empire.
Watching sports with my dad means hearing, “did you see that?!” after every big play, mess up, etc… and I always laugh and think to myself, no dad, I missed that while watching the exact same tv/games as you! 😂
Home.
Omg, yes!
OHMYGAAAAAAAAAAAWD! I finally finished Heated Rivalry!
😂😂😂
Walk through the gate in Houston and one of the first people I see is @gvbsea.bsky.social! Pleasant surprise! 💙💚
Are your lenses progressive? How long did it take you to adjust to using them? I’m not sure how I feel about them tbh, but it’s only day 1, lol
I am, admittedly, a very old person, but I miss the days of being like “oh the game is on channel 5,” and then turning on the tv and flipping to channel 5 and watching the game
Very excited to see if the Sounders' first half today will be less than an hour long.
This is the most obvious logical thing to implement. It's wild they haven't at least trialed it yet. I suppose I could see refs feeling like they have to make a decision quickly, but maybe they shouldn't see the clock ticking.
A reader had a good suggestion: Once the ref goes to the monitor, VAR’s communication should stop. If they can’t see the infraction without the help of the commentary, it’s not clear and obvious.

Tomorrow is March and my brain can’t fully comprehend that!
I swear, every night before a weekend shift, I have the worst sleep. Doesn’t help that I’ve been stuck at home all week, getting over some sort of cold. It’s been a crappy one.
Tix purchased to see The Hold Steady (playing Boys & Girls in America!) and the Mountain Goats in August at Zoo Tunes! I. Am. Excite.
Home.
Checking the YHR-news email and in the clutter folder is an email from ‘Bone Idle’ and that would be a great band name.
Starting “Reservation Dogs” again and the IHS episode in the first season is probably the best!

Benito carrying a football with musicians carrying flags behind him
Iconic moment as he says "God Bless América" and then names every country in South, Central, and North america in order
For the rest of the hemisphere, América doesn't mean the U.S.
It means evveeerrybody
