What a trip. Thank you to @franklinleonard.bsky.social and our team and mostly thank you to having a shower and coming up with great ideas. See you at the movies.
We can complain about the Dodgers losing to under .500 teams, but the more alarming thing is that since June 1, they have been essentially the same team as the Pirates. Woof.

Phoenix @ Hollywood Bowl, 2010. Splurged on box seats. Couple ask us if they can swap seats to sit with their friends. Their seats? In the pit. We say yes very quickly. During the encore, Thomas Mars brings the whole pit ON STAGE for the last 4 bars of 1901. Will never be topped.

Noooooo don’t do that, people would hate it if the industry trying to ruin all other industries ruined itself in the process noooo
AI advocates have warned that if every author in the class action filed a claim, it would "financially ruin" the entire industry.
Authors celebrate “historic” settlement coming soon in Anthropic class action
Advocates fear such settlements will “financially ruin” the AI industry.

Lakers-Knicks-Nets is a 3-way trade. Heat and Rockets are separate trades. But this allows the Lakers to refresh around Luka and get more assets, NYK a different look in the playoffs and $ next yr to extend Bridges, BKN get center with all those young PGs (lol). Someone pour cold water on me.

If you were too young in 2003 here is what Bush told the American people:
1) The Iraq War won’t cost a lot of money
3) We won’t need a lot of troops
4) We’ll bring peace and freedom to Iraq
5) We’ll find WMDs
6) We’ll be welcomed as liberators
7) It will be easy
8) It won’t take long
All lies.

We need to build some real social stigma around being afraid of cities. You don't have to like them or live there, but a politics built this strongly around watching TV and going "ewww" is embarrassing, and people should be embarrassed by it. It's like "fear of werewolves" being your top issue.

The technocrats that have binded to MAGA are perverts who want to convert their coveted trad-wife fantasies in to having sex with robots that will run every aspect of their lives and allow them the time and adoration to feel like gods.
It’s like they sit around tossing out ideas like “what’s the absolute worst thing we could do?”

Everything being visible & available all the time -- creators, actors, execs, fans, they're all out there f'ing talking constantly, nothing left unsaid -- drains mystery from art. It makes everything feel shallow & self-referential & meta & derivative.

it's important this go as viral as the original story for morale purposes if nothing else. despite the image they project these people are NOT unaccountable. consequences CAN be forced. focused anger and outrage MATTERS.

I meant this as a sign and trade, but now realize that a team above the first apron can’t execute a sign and trade because WHO AUTHORIZED THIS F$@KING CBA??
Myles Turner, come on down
The final margin is going to be slightly inflated by Minny shooting > 50% from three, but that should not obscure how bad this matchup looks on LA’s defensive end of the floor. Major offseason priority is obviously defensive paint presence who can also play pnr with both main guys.

The worst writing advice is “kill your darlings.”
It’s not wrong, just incomplete. Because it doesn’t say *when* to kill your darlings.
Sometimes your darlings are the only thing keeping the rest of the script - and you - from collapsing into despair. If you kill them, kill ‘em last.
