In my loneliness
When you're gone and I'm all by myself
And I need your caress
I just think of you
And the thought of you holding me near
Makes my loneliness soon disappear
Though you're far away
I have only to close my eyes
And you are back to stay
I just close my eyes
And the sadness that missing you brings
Soon is gone and this heart of mine sings
Yes I love you so
And that for me is all I need to know
I will wait for you
Til the sun falls from out of the sky
For what else can I do

GAWWWWD!!!! 😍 😍 😍

So Cait ( @oldladyplays ) and I have been talking a little back and forth on my Pete Rose thread and I went to google what the official name of the women's baseball league was called back in the 40's

And I came across thisssss!!!!
There will be six teams and opening day is scheduled for 2026!
I'm so excited I'm about to cry!

What a fucking scam!!! 😡 😡 😡

So as I dig a little about this new women's baseball league I found out each team will have a salary cap of NINETY-FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS!!!

95K FOR THE ENTIRE TEAM.
FUCKING BULLSHIT!

They're only playing for a month of regulars season games, an all-star game and then two weeks of playoffs.

So disappointing. Now I'm really going to cry. I mean I get it. It's a new league. Interest has to be established but for just four weeks? C'mon. Gives us some women's baseball for a few months!!!

I was just reading about this because Mo'ne Davis from that Philadelphia Little League team that was in the LLWS in 2014 has now graduated college, got a Masters degree, and is going to try out for the league! She hasn't played baseball in a few years now, she played softball in college.

It isn't intact. The machine was painted with something.
The decoration is a decal.
The whole machine was lacquered, but we don't know the formulas.
It might be the same (bug) lacquer used in Asia, or something else.

Israeli settlers continue a long-term trend of illegally destroying or occupying Palestinian #water sources in the West Bank with no intervention (and sometimes actual protection) from the Israeli military or government.

Israeli settlers diverted water from the Ein Samiya spring near Ramallah into a nearby pool, vandalized pumping wells and launched a crowdfunding campaign, yet no arrests have been made despite repeated attacks

#OfficeSpace #IfYouCouldJustGoAheadAndDoThatThatdBeGreat
The image is a meme featuring a still from the movie "Office Space". The central figure is a middle-aged man with light brown hair, wearing glasses, a light tan suit jacket over a white collared shirt, and a patterned tie. He is holding a white mug that says "INITECH" on it. He is in the middle of speaking, gesturing with his right hand raised, appearing to be addressing the viewer. The background shows a glimpse of an office setting, with cubicle dividers and a window visible. The text overlayed on the image reads: "OH, AND REMEMBER: NEXT FRIDAY... IS HAWAIIAN SHIRT DAY. SO, YOU KNOW, IF YOU WANT TO, GO AHEAD AND WEAR A HAWAIIAN SHIRT AND JEANS." The words "HAWAIIAN SHIRT DAY" are in red font, emphasizing the key phrase. The font used is a simple, clear sans-serif. The overall color palette is muted, with the man's skin tone and clothing colors being the most prominent, contrasted by the red text. The composition is a medium shot, focusing on the man and his message.

Very interesting. It reminds me of some of the railing work at the Marin County Civic Center, which was designed by Frank Lloyd Wright. Closeup photo here:

Other similar railing work can be seen on photo 3 on this page (which includes the context for the above photo) along with many other interesting design elements:
