15 years. 10Ks of tweets. A library of #stlcards/#lost content. The only real evidence of how I thought during a really wild stretch of my life.
And I’m deleting this app. I allow far more in “discourse” than I should, but Sandy Hook deniers are a big, bright line I won’t cross.
But the planet’s early-to-mid 21st century forebears left one great gift to the people of a dying ecosystem. In what was formerly known as the United States, from one great ocean to the other, as far as the eye can see… all pickleball courts.
The year is 2154. Climate change and civil collapse have rendered most of Earth uninhabitable. The planet’s wealthiest inhabitants have fled to the moon. The remaining humans live a hardscrabble existence in subterranean cave systems and in the now-temperate polar regions.

With #stlcards out of it this year I am firmly on the @Rangers bandwagon. Put $10 on them a season ago at something like +2200. This would have been better year. My first live MLB was in Arlington. It would be fun to see them win it (sorry not sorry about ’11, tho.)
This is a thread of phrases similar to “a few sandwiches short of a picnic” from around the world, starting with this one…
There’s a colourful old Swedish idiom that goes hjulet snurrar men hamstern är död. It means “the wheel is spinning but the hamster is dead”
