on my birthday I took to the newsletter to write about the AI commencement address backlash, and how growing anger at AI is now irreversibly tethered to justified rage at the extraction class -- whether AI boosters like it or not

When New Yorkers find out their mom threw out all those cologne samples they were saving from the magazines:

It feels almost insulting to allow either of these teams to take the floor against the Spurs/Thunder next round. #nbasky

Jesus. Fucking. H. Christ. #nbasky

SGA's body control when he's throttling game speed (speeding himself up or slowing down) is absolutely elite. #nbasky

What if all of #nbasky came together to crowd-fund a @modakhilnba.bsky.social possession by possession breakdown of Caruso's defensive possessions this game? Absolute clinic.

Watching Alex Caruso play perimeter defense is an absolute joy! #nbasky

Stop calling him Paul Reed, he's B Ball Paul! #nbasky

Any Pistons fans mad about Ausar not getting a ticky tack foul 80 ft from the basket with 0.1 seconds on the clock. Be mad your team had multiple shot clock violations in crunch time. #nbasky

Slightly increase a band Red Hot Habenero Peppers

I just contacted Squilla and all the At-Large council members about this continued embarrassment for the city of Phila. The office should be abolished, or at the very least Bilal fired!

You're telling me someone tried to kill one of he most hated men in the world? In a country with so many guns toddlers regularly shoot each other? I'm sorry, I'll need a moment to process this.

Watching Wendell Carter finally play with some fire and knowing it's cause Angel Reese got up in his ear, which is still kinda pathetic. #nbasky

Fuck it. Do the Magic City night back in ATL for game 3. #nbasky

Watching this Rockets team struggle to get to 50 points at the half, knowing Coby White got moved for 2 seconds, it's an indictment of the front office. They got high on their own supply. #nbasky

The Amazon Prime NBA experience is going awesome! Been loading for 5 minutes. #nbasky

The biggest Chicago Bulls win in years!!! #nbasky

Deni Advija's anger is white hot and 100% deserved. These refs have been ridiculous. #nbasky

My kid has a basketball fun facts book that features Alex Len and I think they should issue a recall. #nbasky

There are bad GMs, and then there's Arturas Karnisovas. The worst decision-maker in the league was way overdue to get fired: www.sportingnews.com/us/nba/chica...

We're all just waiting for that @rickyodonn.bsky.social take!

It should be an impossibility of physics for two of the shittiest basketball ownership groups to occupy the same terrestrial space. But somehow both the Chicago Bulls and Sky exist.

As a Sky fan living in South Philly, the arrival of a local WNBA franchise can't come soon enough. Sky are a clown-ass franchise (like their MNBA counterpart). Big fan of Angel and wishing her nothing but success. #wnbasky

There are so many funny comedians, so many stories about fucking wizards, so many good R&B singers. If you can't find one who hasn't famously abused women or kids, then you're fucking lazy!

These High Point kids are are a bunch of rat terriers. #marchmadness

Yes, more of this! Say, "this bitch is in the Epstein files!" if they're gonna protect pedophiles. No allusions or confusing turns of phrase.

Multiple sources report that Trump’s Federal Reserve Chair nominee, Kevin Warsh, is included in the Epstein files. It’s essential that the public fully understand the extent of any interactions or relationship he had with Jeffrey Epstein. I’m pushing for answers.

Rare night of NBA games with both actual playoff (Magic-Hawks, Lakers-Rockets) and tank playoff (Bulls-Grizz, Mavs-Pels) implications. #nbasky

I don't think many of my Trump cabinet revenge fantasies will come true. Justice is not for this world. But I do think this guy sees inside of a prison in my life. He's too stupid and no one cares to protect him. So many ppl will point fingers when a fall guy is needed.

Watching this TCU-Kansas Big12 game and guys are slipping all over this court. Maybe playing on a giant LED screen isn't safe?

Trying to watch the @nba.com and what the Hell? Just blowouts or two collection of G League guys slap fighting. Gotta fix this shit. #NBAsky

I hope the Celtics throw the book at SGA tonight in an effort to keep him below 20 points to not break Wilt's record. F it. We're in full on hater szn and all these teams should be petty AF. #NBAsky

Are you wearing too-big-shoes? Agonizing over Bam's 83? A member of the US WBC team? Log off now. Got get a smoothie. Today is not for you.

tariffs happening for no reason and theyre making your life worse, secret police kidnapping people for no reason and making your life worse, firing thousands of government employees for no reason and making your life worse, going to war with iran for no reason and making your life worse

In a surprise to absolutely no one, this Denver-OKC matchup has lived up to the billing. #nbasky

@inquirer.com: will you demand a response from Brian Fitzpatrick? He needs to explain why he's the member of a white supremacist party, or fully call for his colleagues resignation.

The only way we get our country to a better place is if some of these assholes go to jail. Ppl who think they're untouchable need to see the inside of a cell.

When Michael Jordan dies they should bury the Chicago Bulls with him like the Pharaohs of old. At least then they'd be serving a purpose. #nbasky

I'm assuming Alyssa Liu skated to "Blow the Whistle" and, even though I'll watch her actual performance, I will repeat it in my head enough times to make it true. Brain's fun like that.

Aw man, this one hurts. Residents of South Philly get to enjoy Zagar's legacy on a daily basis: it's glass art both big and small on private stoops and facades. I never met the man but he really did inject a public art style into the lifeblood of a community by hard work and collaboration. RIP

What are we even doing here? No one wants to participate in the All Star Game, a third of the league will be actively losing games, many stars will be ineligible for end of season awards due to time missed. 1/2

Happy Norm Macdonald hosting the ESPYs day to all who celebrate! www.youtube.com/watch?v=6X2i...

I'm really happy for Puerto Ricans and I hope they feel like they conquered the world tonight. #superbowl #badbunny

@rickyodonn.bsky.social is the voice of the collective bile of all Bulls fans everywhere and I appreciate it so much. Thank you dude. I'm too far gone to give up on this team (my beachfront property on Tyrus Thomas island is suffering from rot) but at least I'm not alone.

Colbert a real G for stuff like this.

Fucking Hell, man. That's some God-damn public commenting right there. Had to sit down to watch that one.

They're the same picture. But the old Nazis showed their faces. ICE Nazis know they have to hide their faces. But we'll hunt them down in Argentina or Tampa or wherever they try to flee. #prosecuteICE

Abolish ICE is now the cowards position. Prosecute ICE must be mainstream. Operation Finale (what Isreal did to ex Nazis) is where I'm at. #prosecuteice
