Spending a lot of time in Fenway during the last month of the season between vacation trade-ins and being slow to redeem my NESN vouchers. Right field roof today.
Allston Christmas: All leases in Boston begin and end on September 1st. Tons of stuff is on the sidewalk. Help yourself. Storrowing: Missing a dozen signs and driving a truck into a bridge or overpass on Storrow Drive, Memorial Drive, or Soldiers Field Road.

(sighs) Sure, he's thrown the ball well, but it's the best season of his career at 37 and somehow the cool intro video calling back to Luis Tiant only makes the ick factor worse.

I love when I'm online at just the right time for wisdom from Coach Gowron without (differently) goofy replies.
Doing the right thing, making the right decision, can still fill you with regret and sadness. That does not make it any less right, but reminds you there may be a cost to doing the honorable thing. A true warrior accepts that hard decisions, like hard truths, can wound.

It's like the folks making #StarTrek have spent 60 years telling the actors who play Spock that the character is witty and gets a quiet kick out of being funnier than humans expect but telling the rest of the cast that he's weird and awkward.

Not entirely sure whether that actually caught the back of the plate, in which case it's a beautiful eephus, or if the umpire just wanted to go home.
A comic book retailer I know mentioned that the Watchmen trailer was the biggest boost his shop ever got from movies, and trailers dropping in general did more than the movies, but you can't really stock up for that.
Perfectly imitates any voice, always wins at things like rock-paper-scissors, never forgets names, animals always like them, sneezes vaccinations, fine-motor telekinesis that can't lift much but can let them manipulate the lock inside a doorknob they're holding, that sort of thing.
Briefly read this as "Unremarkable X-Men" which could both be an enjoyably snarky dig or a fun book about mutants with abilities that are maybe useful but not flashy, which could be a fun spy book. (Not a critique of GS's run, as I haven't even finished Hickman's yet)

Like, that business is probably a couple of guys in a Ladies' Market basement shop. They need stuff to settle down. I'm kicking myself for not having things shipped to Montreal for when I visited a month ago and figuring out how much I'd need to order to make a bus ticket worth it.
And a lot of small businesses elsewhere have been doing this for a while; the place I buy movies from in Hong Kong, for instance, stopped shipping here a couple months ago because they don't have the bandwidth to deal with changing rules and what happens if I don't pay the tariffs on my end.
