Anthony Kiedis cries two tears

Timberwolves: 2 State of California: 0

Come back soon, Jimmy!

Sorry, but my job precludes me from writing about how the Minnesota Timberwolves are the greatest basketball team of all time. That's why I will def not be making mention that the Minnesota Timberwolves are super duper back. I would not endeavor to end any social post with the words Naz Reid.

The Timberwolves are the Knicks if they didn’t fuck around in Game 5s.

Yeah, yeah, Luka had a stomach bug in G3. Now imagine how sick he must be that Rudy Gobert punched his plane ticket to Cancun.

The most respectful strangers are now to one another is sharing a midnight Uber. 3 of us, completely respecting Headphones Law™. Worth it.

Reunited*!!! *featuring new knick-knacks

The boy has been on vacation with my folks this week. He returns this eve. While I've loved the extra calm to read and sleep, I'm giddy as hell we get to play Zelda together again in a few hours.

Well that settles it. The Minnesota Timberwolves are winning the NBA Finals.

Died today. Writing this from the grave. Coworker asked what this UX/UI in the Stay Tippin music video was referencing (she was also unfamiliar with the song).

I feel really bad for Drake's lawyers. Now he's got them working on Super Bowl Sunday.

BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA Drake about to be doing the most performative "unbothered" Instagram stories of his life.

Bahahahahaha Drake sweating when Kendrick gonna play "Not Like Us," and he hits em with "Euphoria."

Eugene Levy's eyebrows and Nick Offerman's moustache splitting the vote for VFX (Facial Hair Division) Cannes Lion.

Super Bowl Costco tip: go like, an hour before kickoff. Never been more empty!

Can't get over how good this post from the American Heart Association is. Props to their marketing team. So nice that Drake's death is actually saving lives.

In retrospect, this was a warning #SkyHoops

One flew East (Brunson) One flew West (Luka) One flew over the cuckoo's nest (Mavs fans) (This post is for anyone else at the intersection of #SkyHoops and #BookSky)

Timberwolves fans reappraising the Gobert trade after last night's events: #SkyHoops

The #SkyHoops after hours degenerates to the early birds when they wake up tomorrow

In an Mmmbop you're gone

Nah for real, did they think if they did it after midnight we wouldn't notice two of the most famous basketball players in the world in different unis on Tuesday?

Sorry for the Minnesota Sushi curse @dodgerindallas.bsky.social I knew I was playing with arcane magic.

What is happening #SkyHoops

Doomscrolling and hearing my son laugh in the other room. Dog just jumped in bed to lick my face. There's stuff in the fridge for a good breakfast. I'm clocking every atrocity. Of course I'm mad. But I'm not letting any of it seep the simple joys from my life. There's rebellion in that too.

Undefeated Dad move: napping at the movie theater.

Lunar New Year event at work yesterday: my coworker and I realize we're both Year of the Rabbit. "1987?" I ask, hope flickering in my eyes. Reader, he was born in NINETEEN NINETY NINE. Signed from my deathbed, -Jesse

I always feel strange doing this sort of thing but Defector.com has had an incredible January, just a ton of really good stories on a wide range of topics, and I suggest subscribing to it. I am biased, obviously, but I am really proud and grateful to get to do this the way we're doing it.

One thing that constantly fascinates me about living in NYC: your circadian rhythms adjust so that you wake up from a subway nap at precisely your stop.

Soft launching my new jersey. It's from Brooklyn (👀 @bipolrbear.bsky.social). Will be spending more time out there. Can't wait to share why with y'all #SkyHoops. Gpa's Kangol for @eleonor-rose.bsky.social @roxanenadeau.com & Wei. Sorry to my Wolves fam, but I look good in Black. #FridayFitCheck

Went to The Strand with the boy yesterday (been trying to get him to love books for 3 years). THRILLED to report he was enchanted by a copy of The Subtle Knife in the Rare Book Room. We're now reading the His Dark Materials trilogy (non $400 editions). Keep book stores thriving. #BookSky

Have a Minnesota sports fan in your life? GET THEM AWAY FROM SOCIAL MEDIA. Make them a nice mug of chamomile tea. Show them Randy Moss highlights. Remind them that Prince was from Minnesota, don'tcha know.

Sax national anthems suggest way more calm and smoothness than the country's current mood, but I still like them.

My guy @reubenclay.bsky.social I hope you enjoyed this evening. Y'all deserve the division. I hope the Vikes can avenge this game in the playoffs (or at the very least acquit ourselves better than whatever this was).

@robertmays.bsky.social your lovely tribute to your dog on this week's pod was touching. I'm going to hug my dog right now.

Everything bagels, the food world's middle finger to the vacuum industry.

Media: "He frequently played a video game where you wield dangerous metal rods" The game:

Massive back-to-back treys from McDaniels and Conley after a Curry 3 threatened to steal the momentum going into the half. #WOLVESBACK

Lest I forget: huge shout out to John Parker Romo for excellent backup kicking duties during Reichard's absence (including a game winner). Hope that dude gets a starting opp with someone soon. #Skol

Wholesome Minnesota fan moment: Aaron Jones leaps into the stands and the ball spins on the ledge. Instead of snatching it up for a souvenir, nice lady in purple stills it and pats Jones on the back. #Skol

And there's another one! Inject all the Kirko INTs directly into my veins!!! #Skol

One thing I really enjoy is that Sam Darnold is a better QB than Jordan Love #Skol

How bout that Sam Darnold

Love that in a game against Cousins, Darnold shows with that throw exactly what makes him so much more exciting. #Skol

That Cousins pick was all but guaranteed to happen, but was still SO satisfying #Skol

I think the Wolves have fixed the vibes AWOOOOO!!!!! 🐺🐺🐺🐺🐺

I'm old enough to remember when every NFL podcaster picked the Packers to win tonight

Okay now that it's a sane hour #RaisedByWolves, can we talk about my overwhelming enthusiasm for Josh Minott?
