You bring up a good point that I wasn't thinking about. Thanks. To be clear, I am anti-punishment for not holding up the hand. I am just pro "holding up the hand."

I generally agree. Tennis players often throw tantrums, but only when the are losing or, in this case, after they lost. On the other hand, showing humility when you are the beneficiary of luck costs nothing, and is generally pro-social and good karma.

It's very different in individual sports than team sports. It's an acknowledgment of the luck, a display of humility, not an apology per se.

Look up the author. She was a badass who wrote a bunch of cool books when women didn't really do that. PS loved Mike Mulligan as a kid and parent

This one is a total miss for me. It's not funny, it's not fun, it doesn't make sense. What is enjoyable?

Flicker?

Also seems to speak to the Pats falling apart when he started dating a 20 year-old.

Geezer, I hadn't even thought of the awful headlines if Journalism had stumbled and had to be put out of its misery.

This is so offensive. Hawaiian coffee is...fine, but expensive because of US labor practices and standard of living. Also, very small relative growing area. If you were to try to ramp up to the production of our main importers, it would take many many years. Not to mention, flover is an issue.

It's so fun! (Incidentally, we are politely aligned, though that shouldn't be a shock on bluesky)

Up in Vermont near Hanover, NH. Where are you?

Did you do the Dissect podcast? That got my guy way into them.

Actually a rare double-breaking-of-less-than-12-hours-of-silence!

KJ! My buddy wrote that book. Problem is, I talked about the upcoming show so much, my wife and son want to watch with me, but are never available.

Definitely secretly happy when my kid would insist on listening on a car ride.
