  1. have a night. nobody gets hot like kyle schwarber.
  2. i tried to watch your honor last night. had to turn it off after ~12-13 minutes due to writing so lazy, unoriginal, and insulting to the viewer that there was no way to keep watching.
  3. game is now tied because a runner who was clearly oit was allowed to stay on third because HW wanted to show how great he is at being an umpire.
  4. miggy rojas/LAD just got boned by hunter wendelstedt, who, as per usual, was both wrong and a colossal prick about it. he’s on the short list of shittiest active umpires.
  5. pirates hitters choked like dogs late.
  6. big argument breaks out between pitt manager and the umpiring crew, so the scoreboard/music operator plays 3 Non Blondes and gets the entire crowd chanting, “what’s going on?!?” lol. well done.
  7. couldn’t have said it better. and one of those societal benefits? a huge portion of the mentally ill population who currently (and rightfully) distrust the system and don’t want to comply with their doctors or take their meds would suddenly become willing to accept care and then in turn would gain actual knowledge, skills, and the ambition to improve themselves. before you know it we’ve got thousands upon thousands of sick people getting the help they need and becoming contributing members of their lives and society in general. wouldn’t that be something.
  8. first off thank you for that, that kind of response/empathy/commiseration means more than you know. and you really pin pointed one of the major issues that most folks don’t think about- my mom, psychiatrist, therapist, and friends all want to help me, and i want to help myself, and these are my options. there are no actual real-time solutions. my mom is still messed up. just earlier today she was visibly upset and still apologizing to me (of course i’ve told her repeatedly that she was just trying to do what she thought would help me), but she can’t help but see how different i’ve been since i’ve come out of that place, and (at times) she’s still wrought with guilt from her decision to try and help me. beyond that, a common refrain that i’ve hopelessly/helplessly expressed throughout the years is that, “everyone else who’s sick has a place to go when they get sick- their doctor, a pharmacy, the ER, the hospital- there is something out there that’s designed to take care of them when they get the flu, when their blood sugar drops, when they have an ibs flare up, etc. but i don’t have any such place.” there is no place for people like me to go when i haven’t gotten real sleep in over a month and now my mental illness is “flaring” as i call it. i can either try and ride it out at home/in public where i may genuinely be a threat to myself and others, or i can check myself into some place where ill be taken off my meds, mistreated, neglected, and then released in 7-10 days worse off than i was before. those are my options. hinestly, i take great pride in how far i’ve come, as well as the fact that i’ve never quit trying to improve myself and my life, considering what my life has been like, and the obstacles that i still face daily. i really am proud to have grown this much, and it means a lot to me when someone here mentions they’ve noticed. so thank you again for that. 🤘🏼
  9. guy takes a girl who is way out of his league on a date and she gets to flirt with a no-no and then catch the HR ball that broke it up. if he doesn’t go for the gold tonight he might never get laid.
  10. you just knew seager was going hard when framber walked the guy in front of him.
  11. david hamilton on the other hand…wow, what a pro. looks like he’ll be around for many years to come.
  12. i doubt bryce elder saw his career going this way when he made the all star team as a rookie. 😬
