This is a pretty big deal. I haven’t had an Animorphs book actually in my hand for almost 20 years. Lying on the couch is different than staring at an ebook in a chair. I had the entire set and I eBay’d it around 2006-2008. One of the worst decisions I ever made in all areas of life. Legitimately.

🫡 @bearnurse.bsky.social @buttzilla.bsky.social I love this. An official acknowledgement of the long history of fan content, of which Animorphing Time was one. But there were many others as well. I only have one original book left, a random ghost-written one, but it doesn’t say this in there.

@lpavone.bsky.social I was working with middle school drummers today, assignment was to play drumming rudiments as a “challenge.” I was telling them, “okay, we’re on a live stream now, here’s attempt #1.” Instead of the usual “time to focus” speech “Gotta practice BEFORE you do the challenge!”😂

If Djokovic didn’t wanna play he should have stayed home. Just go through the motions in Geneva next week or whatever if the goal for Djokovic was “spend two hours on the match court before Roland Garros.”

Amanda Anisimova has withdrawn due to a left wrist injury. Elena Gabriela Ruse takes her place in the draw as a lucky loser. We wish Amanda a speedy recovery 💪 #IBI26

Tomorrow! 🧊🦎 As the series celebrates its 30th anniversary this year, the first three #Animorphs books are being rereleased with gorgeous new cover art by @creepcaptain.bsky.social. So happy to see the series live on in this way. Here's a link to book one: bookshop.org/p/books/anim...

GET A LEG UP ON THE PILE! 👍🏻

My current anthem. 🍎 It was an episode end credits song for “Twin Peaks: The Return.”

The rapid glow-up of the 90s, we will truly truly never see that again. In a 6-year span we went from an angular Nazi murder simulation with high scores and lives to a fully 3D with basic-AI cinematic film script. Six years ago was 2020. Nothing’s happened in the 6 years! (Shut up, nothing good)

Still have the original Wolf 3D manual.

“Instead of slowing down the action with laborious and complex controls… […] all you’ll need is quick reflexes.” Legitimately one of the biggest decisions in gaming history. Felt like Romero himself wrote that line as well. 😂 @johnromero.bsky.social @romerogames.bsky.social

A notable symbol on the first inside page of the manual. Obviously it’s plastered all over the game as well. And the anthem as the main menu music. We are hashtag Edgy AF now!

By the way! And this is very “in the weeds.” I saw that Damian Steiner was listed as a supervisor for WTA Madrid. Very very surprising. I didn’t know he was back in the game. (Google it if you don’t know or forgot)

Oh my gawd 🙄🙄🙄 Paolo Lorenzi? Seriously? This has gotten out of control. The tournament director role is now officially meaningless.

According to the ticket section of the Rome website, the WTA final is on Friday the 15th and the men’s final is on Saturday. What the……………………….

Antonelli has the worst stats this year on the first lap so let’s see what happens here.

This is how the cycle goes. Federer was not very popular in 2006. Djokovic 2015. Rafa 2013…. Ten years from now the crowd will be roaring when Sinner wins his last tournament.

Sinner’s immediate interview reaction: “just try to have good practices.” Okay. 🤖

ATP 1000s/Slams, 2026 Sinner - 4 Alcaraz - 1 Big events since Shanghai: Paris SINNER Turin SINNER Australia ALCARAZ Indian Wells SINNER Miami SINNER Monte-Carlo SINNER Madrid SINNER What else can you say?

Jannik Sinner wins the Madrid 1000 event. Who can stop him?

This is Roland-Garros-2008 bad. Not said lightly.
