Tired: giving hats to the Pope.
Wired: giving jerseys to the Pope.
Inspired: giving donations to your city's food pantries as a gift in the Pope's name.
Spike Lee just blessed Pope Leo with a custom Knicks jersey during his visit to the Vatican, just one week after the Pope was gifted a custom Chicago Bulls one.

It isn't often you buy a bottle of wine that has the phrase "rat porn" on the bottle. Happy to support a good cause though. Will age this and hope time doesn't do to the wine what the pandemic did to John Oliver.

One of the better "this isn't just burying the lede" passages you'll ever read.
This isn’t just burying the lede.

This is injecting the lede with arsenic, garroting the lede with a rope, setting the lede on fire, thwacking the lede with the back of a hoe, and distributing the remains of the lede over the Pacific Ocean, 250 miles from the nearest coastline

Had a really good Saturday in the Finger Lakes. Great experiences at Forge Cellars, Silver Thread's room at the former Dano's, & Kemmeter Wines. It was a really welcome distraction from, well, everything & at the same time a reminder of what a treasure of a region we live in. Definitely needed it.

Australia has so much electricity from solar power that it is going to start offering free electricity to everyone for at least three hours during the day as the wholesale price of power goes negative

Australia's extensive solar power penetration makes so much energy that the government wants to offer free electricity at peak hours.

Warning: #Springsteen Nerdery ahead
In listening to the Electric Nebraska box set, a few thoughts spring to mind:
1) While it was never going to live up fully to the mythology created around the idea of "Electric Nebraska" it is excellent. I always love a glimpse inside Bruce's creative process. /1

We're at the Tom Morello show in Kingston. Several "Let's go Blue Jays" chants have broken out and Tom is providing score updates from the stage. The show is also freaking awesome. #WorldSeries #Rock

RIT researchers have developed self-healing 3D printing resins that can repair damage and improve durability in printed objects! The new materials could lead to stronger, more reliable parts for applications like prosthetics, robotics, and electronics.

A note for sports: Bluesky’s engagement rate was x10 higher than X’s across a sampling of identical posts made on both platforms by @rapsheet.bsky.social (sharing with permission)

Fwiw we see a similar trend across all communities, not just sports. Real people, real conversations.
