PNW native. I love my Seattle sports! I play tabletop games and Pokémon Go. Cat dad to 2 amazing furballs, Meeps and Squeeky. Finally cut the cord from Saruman the Tweeterer.

Just got my ballot and voted for you (and Princess Donut). Good luck!!

“Meatspace” 🤣🤣🤣👊

Got it in 3 as well. Incidentally, it’s hot as the blazes in Seattle this weekend. Y’all really “lucked out” with the mild weather last weekend. 🌧️

Virtuous solve.

Errors in the 500’s usually means it’s their fault. 🤓😎

This was my first, and perhaps, only WorldCon. I’m not “in the biz”, but I had the good fortune of living 10 blocks away from this one. I vaguely remember what your article referred to, but I heard nothing about it all weekend. All I did was have an amazing time and met amazing people. Yay books!

Can you only catch one? You need a silver bottle cap.

Hey @maryrobinettekowal.com thanks for chatting about talking cats today! I’ve added a “bored” button to my palate, so let’s see if Squeeks picks up on it. Give your tortie a scritch from me. 😻

Was just going to chime in and say ice cream. It was a hot day and it hit the spot. The rest? Boots... So. Many. Boots.

This is also Rosie, my Kitty Emeritus from 2002-2019. Yay torties!!

I swear I was on the escalator in the convention center behind you an hour ago. That jacket is impossible to miss. Have fun at the show!
Matt Winberry (@mattwinberry.bsky.social) reply parent
I mean, I get it. This is escalating to 11 right off the bat (pun definitely intended). But you gotta do what you gotta do to camp in peace. 😆

Hang up a sign that says “I’m a Mariners fan”. That’ll scare them off.

Also, awesome panel today on sports in writing. I was there and thoroughly enjoyed it.

This time of year, weather like today is very unusual.

Have so much fun!

I’ve been stuck in LAX “The Horseshoe” traffic before to the point where I just got out and walked to my terminal, but I agree with you that I’ve walked just as far if not farther at ATL. At least Atlanta has Cool Stuff decorating that huge underground terminal connector tunnel thingy.

So Helsinki Central Station is your Roman Empire, is what you’re saying? 🤣
Matt Winberry (@mattwinberry.bsky.social) reply parent
This means nothing. It’s been like this for 10 years now. When it gets below 30, then something has changed. Until then, it’s business as usual.
Matt Winberry (@mattwinberry.bsky.social) reply parent
That one just now was a screamer.
Matt Winberry (@mattwinberry.bsky.social) reply parent
Meeps and Squeeky, two other SAFR AlumniKitties, are similarly miffed.
Matt Winberry (@mattwinberry.bsky.social) reply parent
I wish Caltrain went closer to downtown. The switcheroo to BART is awkward. But at least it’s there so I never have to rent cars when I visit the Bay Area.
Matt Winberry (@mattwinberry.bsky.social) reply parent
Caltrain?

Omg you two are adorable. 🥰

Naylor and Julio have been mean to baseballs tonight.
Matt Winberry (@mattwinberry.bsky.social)
Hang a curve to Julio at your peril. 😁
Matt Winberry (@mattwinberry.bsky.social) reply parent
Not sure. We definitely need videos of him to see more of his personality before we can render name suggestions. 😁

It’s a legit question. Guys kept breaking their fingers sliding head first, so that’s why these gloves came into being.

I am definitely a “vote blue no matter who”.
Matt Winberry (@mattwinberry.bsky.social) reply parent
I think we’re going to have to agree to disagree here. Personally, I feel like enough people in swing states like MI and PA sat out this last election to affect the outcome. Either way, I feel like you and I will agree on 95+% of issues. And I also feel like we agree that we need new strategies.
Matt Winberry (@mattwinberry.bsky.social) reply parent
If that means that they say what they need to say in order to get the low info middle to vote for them, then maybe they need to do that. As it stands, their “lead with Thor’s Hammer of Anger” method of politics makes it simple for the right to come in and scare low info voters. 🤷♂️
Matt Winberry (@mattwinberry.bsky.social) reply parent
I agree that the dem leadership is spineless and the worst, but that doesn’t mean that the far left isn’t blameless. In order to win elections, I feel like they should do whatever it takes to actually win those elections.
Matt Winberry (@mattwinberry.bsky.social) reply parent
Agree. I was largely silent about it until this last election. The far left is SO BAD at politics. They lead with blunt anger and have no savvy whatsoever. And we got Sippy Cup Caligula as a result.

Is there a smaller dog named Gimli?

Anyone at the Mariners game tonight? I have on-field fireworks passes that I won’t be using (4 total). If you’re there and want them, hit me up and they’re yours (free, of course).

I’ve been to Toronto once, and it was also in July (for Blue Jays games, no less). It was face-meltingly hot then as well. 🥵 Good luck!

Sunglasses at Night by Corey Hart or Big Love by Fleetwood Mac. I loathe them both equally.
