good morning

tried for a walkoff steal of home in the 10th inning in my Strat-O-Matic league tonight

it required a 1-6 on a d20 to successfully pull off and win the game
I rolled an 8

the very next at bat? a fly ball out that would've given the baserunner a 1-17 chance to score instead

rest in peace, norm

and just who IS this totally unexpected candidate that’s going to emerge as California’s next governor?

you guessed it

last-minute prediction for the newsom recall election:

the insanely late push from Democrats to endorse keeping Newsom is gonna result in remove winning, and their dumb-ass strategy to endorse *leaving the replacement candidate field blank* is gonna result in a totally unexpected candidate coming from out of nowhere to take the governorship

sure, giant eagle

if you want a pretty good video that's especially relevant today, here's one, I think

Very disappointingly, this story isn’t actually true: https://defector.com/master-of-disguise-turtle-club-911/

but the shop was too good to not share

The scene at the Turtle Club happened to be filming on September 11, 2001. When word of the terrorist attacks reached the set, the cast and crew observed a moment of silence.

just unleashed perhaps the best-timed drive into deep left field joke I’ve ever done

I hate myself for loving you
Can't break free from the things that you do
I wanna walk but I run back to you
Cause I’ve been waiting all day for Sunday night
