[ESPN Stats & Info] The Padres fell to 7-23 in 1-run games following Monday’s loss to the Giants. The Padres are on pace for the 2nd-worst record in 1-run games since 1900. However, San Diego’s overall run differential of +90 this season would be the 2nd-best in team history (+114 in 1998). https://www.rawchili.com/3083812/

I love the randomness of photos. The moon was up at the Miramar Air Show, so it was fun to get this Blue Angels #F18 flying past it.

[Higgins on Twitter] OK, so if the Cubs, Marlins and Padres all finish at exactly 82-80, the Padres could win a 3-team tiebreaker on best overall record in head-to-head games among the three. So not eliminated yet. https://www.rawchili.com/3083204/

[Passan] That is 19 runs — 18 earned — in 135 innings. A 1.20 ERA. A historically great run that will end in the National League Cy Young Award as Snell hits free agency this winter. https://www.rawchili.com/3083081/

I know it's early, but I won't be in the paleo lab tomorrow.

This is a left femur from a #mastodon found by SDNHM Paleo Services at a construction site in Carlsbad, California in September of 2021. The exposed side was up when it was discovered. I think it was scraped by a dozer. The other side is in much better condition.

Any #LGBTQ, #Trans, #Nonbinary, or #Queer people in #SanDiego, CA that would be interested in practicing or learning martial arts?

I've been thinking I would like to get back into practicing martial arts and would love to maybe host an informal group so I have people to practice and learn with! I practiced Taekwondo and Judo for over a decade, once upon a time, and used to teach back in my early 20s....but I am really out of practice and out of shape, so I need folks I can feel comfortable exercising and learning with.

I have a space in my garage and could easily get some mats and a punching bag. I would host and teach for free, and would be happy to adapt what we do to anybody's accessibility or disability needs. Not a sure thing yet, but would there be anyone interested in these parts?

(Please Boost to help me find people)

@salad_bar_breath Hmmm...Maybe I should just get back into teaching martial arts? 😅​

I've been out of practice for over a decade, so I've been eying some of the more sport-oriented martial arts groups and schools, but really wasn't sure if I really wanted to put up or feel a bit ill at ease in that environment. But like, I practiced taekwondo and judo into my 20s and had been teaching for several years at that point. There's definitely some things about learning how to do things in ways that are less likely to injure you and correct your technique that is hard to pick up from videos. At least if one is more interested in the "art" side of martial arts more than self-defense.

I guess, are there any #LGBTQ, #Trans, or #Queer folks in #SanDiego that would be interested in practicing with me to get myself back in shape and learn some stuff? I just need people I can do it with and can teach for free.

San Diego is a really fun place. I have visited many times over the last 5-10 years and plan to go back often now that my daughter is living there.
Love the Gas Lamp District and Old Town is a fantastic place to grab a good Mexican dinner along with a margarita or a cold beer.
The area has many beaches and the weather is almost always just right.

Another from our trip to San Diego last week -

We went whale watching but didn’t see any whales. What we did see was about 150 dolphins when our raft ended up in the middle of their pod! 🐬

Sunset Cliffs

Sunset Cliffs in San Diego is a stretch of rock on the Pacific Ocean in the Pt. Loma area of San Diego California.
Some areas of the cliffs have undeveloped trails that allows access to the Pacific Ocean but they can be dangerous if one is not careful.
The view from the tops of the cliffs is very beautiful as the cliffs seem to change color as the sun sets.

Sunset Cliffs

This is an image of Sunset Cliffs in the Pt. Loma area of San Diego.
This is a sunset picture even though the sun is not seen directly in the image. 
To capture I had stepped out on a rocky ledge and shot the rock lege to my right that had the last rays of the sun shinning on them. 
The rocks have a brilliant orange glow from the last light hitting them directly. 
Because the light was low I was able to slow my shutter so that gave the waves a washed out, kind of a gaseous look.

Hey Fediverse! There is a San Diego Mutual Aid organization called We All We Got San Diego. This org has bi-weekly, free food distribution, with no questions asked or gatekeeping, just free food given away in San Diego. They do incredible work.

I have just heard from their Discord channel that they are currently low on funds, with not enough in the account to handle even one of the bi-weekly distros they do.

If you could spread the word and possibly donate, they would be incredibly thankful!

And if you need food in San Diego, check them out!

"Low Tide Treasures"

A detail of the Point Loma tide pools at... you guessed it, low tide, revealing beautiful rock layers and colorful rocks, smoothed by aeons of sand and waves.

The water is rendered very smooth from an exposure time of ~80 seconds.

A personal favorite from my collection: https://www.alex-kunz.com/portfolio/color-portfolio-gallery/

At the bottom left is fine sand, on the right side smooth colorful rocks in the water. The water is rendered soft by a long exposure time. No sky is visible in the photo.

Why does the company Delaware North sound so familiar? They’re in the news right now because they’ve allowed a fake charity to rake in millions of dollars from concessions at #Padres #PetcoPark but I know I know that name from another #SanDiego scandal -- does it ring a bell for anyone else here?
