I'm too old and uncool to actually know what this means fully, but you know what, I'll take it.

Accurate. I'm having my whirling spike clubs installed next week.

All Christmas wrapping paper is actually a diabolical plot by Cthulhu to force the human mind to wrestle with unnatural, non-Euclidian geometries. Why yes, I'm wrapping gifts tonight. Why do you ask?

Ok, Zags. Time to finish it. #Zags

I am here for Braeden Smith taking this one over. #Zags

I swear that NBA 3-pt line is messing with us. Guys are lining up too far out when they take 3s. #Zags

Ike having a horrific game so far. #Zags

We cannot keep taking these shitty 3s. #Zags

I read way more fiction than non-fiction, but Crossings was one of my favorite reads of the past couple years. I can honestly say I don't go more than a week without thinking about some part of it, even now, a full year plus since I read it.

Well, hopefully that's the worst half we play this whole season? #Zags

Gonna be one of those nights... #Zags

Punch Deadlift, bruh. You gotta problem with that?!

Tron Grant-Foster had a monster game. Def my player of the game. #Zags

OMG this game. #Zags

Kind of damning Diagne hasn't played yet. #Zags

We do not need to be taking bs 3s with how we've shot from the arc this season. #Zags

Oh man. These announcers... #Zags

I clench every time I watch Harley take a ft. Love him, but... Sheesh. That form... #Zaga

Wait, Bobby Hurley upset with an official?! I'm shocked! #Zags

Not pretty for the Zags tonight. Gonna be one of those games. #Zags

Remember, parents! Check your kids candy tonight! (And maybe weigh down their bedsheets with heavy objects?)

Me after I buy a bag of Halloween candy at the store:

Getting a bit spicy out there early. #Sounders

Anybody else in here watching the #Zags exhibition?

Stand up on No Kings Day

Fyi for this weekend to anyone going.

The Chain Story Project has just released its latest offering: Two Stories this week, by gryphonrose.bsky.social and bobgreenberger.bsky.social Please enjoy, like and repost. It really helps. Thank you. www.chainstorycore.com/blog/free-fiction-round-nine

As much as I live and die, with the team, I don't think I could actually change my name to A. Seattle Sounders or anything. #Sounders Good thread, though!

Happy Indigenous Peoples' Day! (And fuck that other guy.) A nice way to mark the day is by supporting an indigenous creator. Last year, I got myself this:

Hopefully there will be fewer horrific headlines from Gaza once this current horror slows to a stop, but the need for support as millions of people need to put their lives back together will still be there.

Yup. 100% co-signed. Also, the stories in the comments rock.

Fuck Wells Fargo.

The best book-mail is the stuff that takes you unawares. Totally forgot I preordered this, but I'm soooo happy with Past Me rn.

This was on my timeline and now it's on yours. You're welcome! Somehow, this takes the original and makes it even awesomer. Which is realistically never something you can really ever say about Waterson's work.

I eat erős pista with a coffee spoon sometimes. (Fyi, for those who don't know what that is: Erős Pista - Wikipedia share.google/m5i5Ch77wbrg...

Game of Thrones. I always thought I should read the books first, so I never watched the show, but then I'm not all that into epic fantasy and they're really long, so... yeah.

1-866-952-4456 to tell Netflix that in no way do you want Elon fucking Musk determining what you watch. I just called, got through in about 15 seconds, and told them that I strongly support queer inclusion in their programming and that I will cancel my subscription if they cave.

Just in case anyone who follows me needs to make a dent in their TBR piles in October as the Long Dark settles in, you might give the OcTBR Challenge a go. I've done it for two years now and it's fun. #books

I think Scavenger's Reign got famous enough that it doesn't fit here, so I'm going to go with 1899. *Sigh* Netflix stole the rest of that show from us and I'm still pissed.

Hydrated. In his lane. Flourishing.

You can tell what people see in DeRo. He'll learn to make those two easy goals he missed. But you can't coach that goal he just beasted in.

Oh HELL yeah, DeRo!! #Sounders

Re: that last retweet. Omg. So stupid. I have amazing colleagues who teach at the same college from some of those countries. And they shouldn't be able to buy houses because... !? Obv this is only in Texas (so far). It's bad there, but hopefully it doesn't spread.

Y'all may not be aware of Senate Bill 17 in Texas, but you should be. In additional to certain foreign nationals, it will DENY U.S. CITIZENS, who have ties to certain other countries, THE RIGHT TO BUY HOMES. www.texasstandard.org/stories/texa...

Beyond all the other reasons this is absolutely terrible for any American, think about those Americans who have family and friends in these countries. Or people visiting or temporarily in the US who are from these countries. This will kill any remaining desire for int'l students to study here.

This. Exactly this. I cannot tell you how many times I have had this conversation with people. Thankfully, the college where I teach gets it. I wish the rest of the country did, too.

This would be so amazing. It would never happen in a million years here because the rich are cowards who probably all cheat on their taxes and don't want the rest of us to know, but at least it's happening somewhere.

This is pretty disgusting. After seeing to U of Chicago news earlier, you wonder how many universities will go down this path. Clearly, the Trump crap is just an excuse for many higher ed administrators to sharpen their axes.

The words to express how disgusted and shocked I am by this do not exist in English. They might exist in another language, but I guess you couldn't learn them at the U of Chicago anymore.
