Watching bad baseball in dark times

If you spend any time on Bluesky (or, in the old days, Twitter, but I can’t speak for that anymore), you’ll see a variation of this kind of post-and-response.

Original Post: I made a really good pizza today, nailed the crust!
Response: How can you celebrate making pizza when [terrible thing is happening in the world]???

Usually, the respondent is pretty roundly mocked, and not only because this has become the equivalence of correcting grammar on social media: There are always terrible things happening in this vale of tears we call life, and, despite that, pizza is still always good.
