  1. Today, as I prep to listen to game 1 of the ALDS, I am reminded of being introduced during ScotlandJS 2018. I was (politely) dragged for being a fan of the Mariners (who had, at the time, been in the longest playoff drought in the three major US professional men's sports).

      I hung my head on stage and here comes jiggy_pete and he gives me a huge hug, commiserating as a fan of a team that has known mediocrity for decades. That was a good moment. It was fun and it was funny and it was human and I'll never forget it.

        The Mariners made to the playoffs. They won their first series. They're in the second round! I hope all of us life long fans of sad teams get to have this moment.
