robot dogs made for killing people tossing tshirts, steph curry saying the game felt like it got in the night’s way, a corporate catchall and brand fever dream — wrote about the dark heart of the all-star game
By trying to please everyone, the NBA All-Star Game serves no one
The NBA All-Star Game was designed to serve a handful of different functions on the fly, so no wonder it’s a haphazard mess.

This is a program for teenagers with serious disabilities who are finishing high school and transitioning to their next steps in life. Trump just axed it, effective immediately, in the middle of the night, with no notice.

The NBA Dunk Contest is just as good as ever. What’s changed is the world around it
The annual discourse around "fixing the Dunk Contest" misses that it’s never needed stars. It used to create them, and maybe in some ways it still can.

Since the 'My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy' era, major statement rap albums have favored blow-out spectacle and obsessive curation. These records run counter to that impulse, giving the artists space to be messy and contradictory. www.hearingthings.co/pink-siifu-a...

I agree with Mark on a lot of stuff, but scores and AI summaries are like 1736282738272th on the list of things I think matter to people using social media for sports!
80m as it stands now. Anyone interested in sports and integrated AI summaries, still goes there for scores and more in-depth summaries.
The sooner @bsky.app adds those features, the more users twitter loses, lowering the number of users @bsky.app needs to supplant Twitter as the first app opened

Mark how many users do you think Bluesky needs to be considered a peer competitor to X? I was thinking about 50 million.

Is LL the most important* rapper/emcee EVER? NO. Is he arguably the one who ushered in the 1st Golden Era at the top of 1986 when “Radio” climbed into the Top 200 after “Krush Groove” before he hit “American Bandstand” & crossed over without a video on MTV as Rap became an LP based genre? YES HE DID
LL recently said in an interview that one day ppl will realize he’s the most important rapper ever. I disagree. I think as time goes on and he gets pushed farther and farther out of ppl’s consciousness, that realization will be less likely. BUT he didn’t lie.
