  • The DMV I used to go to had a vending machine that said profits went towards supporting an all blind baseball team. I’m still not sure if it was legitimate: I get that “blind” could mean with 20/400 vision, which isn’t that difficult to correct well enough to play baseball, but that seems like one of the worst sports to play with limited visual input.

    Every time I saw it, I had this thought process, then scolded myself for limiting people, then thought about how dangerous a fastball can be, then scolded myself again. I haven’t thought about that in a decade at least.

  • My parents each had several siblings and they had normal sibling relationships, so they loved each other dearly, but were frequently rude to each other (with the sole exception of my mom’s only sister, who was always very supportive).

    This reminds me of being a little kid and trying to play them against each other (for tv time or candy or something, nothing serious), because I could tell how oppositional they were towards each other, only to be caught completely off guard when they all united against me.
