I’ve been hearing “this is the best US men’s team ever”, “a golden generation”, and other accolades every 4 years since 1992…and every time it ends the same. Even with a thumb on the scale we got clowned last night, that 3rd goal was just embarrassingly bad.
Monghetti workout this morning. My legs are tired but this workout isn’t about hitting certain paces, it’s just doing what you can today. No cardio tomorrow
Trump currently on the phone with Infantino "all I need is for you to find us 4 goals..." #worldcup2026 #worldcup #ettd
Being functionally dead and his staff refusing to admit it is the most Mitch McConnell thing ever.
He is dying the way he lived: Squeezing every drop of political power out of technicalities. https://www.huffpost.com/entry/latest-news-live-updates_n_6a4b6bc0e4b05c9d0338a117/liveblog_6a4bcfdce4b0c806bbeed2f9
Glad I decided to watch at the brewery up the road instead of traveling into the city
I think that’s that #worldcup
Final Troll Run. I took today off work to stretch the long weekend and possibly go to Seattle for WC watching which means I had time to drive 45 minutes to run. Started at the trailhead for Zoe & the Swamp Monster and worked my way around to Rainier Trail to Jakob Two Trees, I stretched it out to an 8 mile run. #running
Avatar gets a lot of hate but imo Fire & Ash is a legitimately good movie. I hope James Cameron figures out how to pay for this because I’m invested and want to see how this story ends #Movies
I think I’m going to skip my planned trip to watch the USA v Belgium game tomorrow, after the blatant corruption with the Red Card suspension the whole thing is dirty now. #worldcup

Normally I’d relax and watch a baseball game but f*&$k! Peacock has exclusive rights to all games today, everything on MLB network is blacked out 😡

“David Morris,
a journalist and author, also appeared to endorse the theory with a brutal jab at McConnell and his legacy:
💥“Mitch McConnell remaining technically alive for an extra three weeks because of a manipulative procedural maneuver is exactly how he would have wanted to go out,”
Morris wrote in a social media post on X.”
Having lunch on the deck and noticed this hummingbird going nuts in the flowers
Only got woken up a few times from fireworks, I’d call that a win. I do have questions for the person blowing stuff up at 5am: was this an all night affair or did you get up and start exploding things?
Meanwhile the Seattle Reddit reads like a police blotter, multiple parks left in shambles from revelers. Some jackases decided to start a bonfire of Lime scooters on a turf soccer field, so that park will be out of commission for a while.
No troll today, I thought about taking a ferry to get the one on Vashon but I don’t have 20 miles in me right now. Started with 7 miles of mostly trail in Point Defiance before joining Tacoma Run Club for the 5 mile route. #running

What better way to celebrate the 4th of July than by getting a bunch of my novels, with a big chunk of your purchase price going to World Central Kitchen, my selected charity for this bundle. Pay what you like (the more you pay, the more you get), and help feed people in need all over the world.
Dom Canzone is great but it’s funny how the Mariners act like he is the only Italian in #seattle 🤌
July 4th at a baseball game 🇺🇸 Interesting vibe, probably 25% of the crowd are Blue Jays fans down from Vancouver
The people whose ideas the Constitution is based on, were almost all anti-slavery abolitionists.
♥️🕊️
That's why these French abolitionists gave America a giant anti-slavery statue, called the Statue of Liberty, with broken chains on her feet, as a giant clue that we are starting to get it right.
I love my country. That means I love most of the people in it. Not everyone. I don't like everyone.
I protect the people in this country from those that would hurt them.
That means from the racists, sexists, transphobes, and false patriots that pretend to love America, but hate 70% of its people.
Today's #Muppets GIF of the Day is...
Called an audible and headed to Ballard for this morning’s run so I could visit Freddie Feetsplinter. 8 miles mostly along Burke Gilman, I’ll have to do this again so I can have brunch at the breakfast at the place I used for parking. #running
