At least he wasn’t a cartoonish villain, like, making his billions in fracking, or giving money to the Fyre Festival guy

i’m never gonna forget where i was for the Luke Kornet game

I love a crying winner, man

Hartenstein has to leave the country, I don’t make the rules. Luke “Pretend Block” Kornet gets you, we start removal procedures

We need Wemby to recreate this powerful scene

Jamal Crawford being a great ball-knower in real time >>>>

got that Chet Holmgren energy in me

i’ve gotten to the point where I laugh at an arena of Thunder fans doing “anxious sports parents clapping” at SGA feebly falling over and tossing a ball up. It’s an aesthetically unified text.

this is kinda breathtaking, chat. OKC in a blender

Bismack Biyombo is the last Charlotte Bobcat, we need to get this man a title

F: “oh, look, this you?” Me: “I am NOT little.”

You misspelled Australian

in re: last post, mountain climbing is one of the coolest and dumbest feats humanity does. it will always be impossible to simulate what alpinism is in a video game or movie, though, so some people will never get it

mountain climbing is cool as shit and I'm not going to tell anyone not to do it

i like reading and photography and radio/audio arts and film, and I like the Internet, but I think smartphones were a rough turn. this makes sense in my head, probably nonsense.

they sell a passport for people to get stamped at every baseball stadium, do they have a passport/stamp book for, like, train folks to get stamped in every metro’s light rail?

lord let me swing my axe. please. they’re letting guys with “gaming” in their handles talk like this, my bullying muscles need the work.

trying to be a “words matter!” person in a political campaign context is one kinda of foolhardy struggle. and trying to be a “words matter!” person on the Internet is pretty foolhardy too. Put the two together, and some people think it becomes Smart, I don’t get it.

sending pictures of beautiful Cleveland to my disbelieving Midwest-expat father like I’m a damned insurance investigator

Albuquerque tourism billboards : Denver metro :: Louisville tourism billboards : Cleveland metro

It is also tiring to have masculinity conversations tethered around food choices. I have strong views on what people should eat, but the whole “masculinity = meat eating” thing is so dumb and retrograde.

I didn’t learn how to become dateable from the Internet. I think my only saving grace was being more cynical than most, where whenever I looked for tips online, I thought “well, THIS online nerd can’t be right, he wouldn’t be here otherwise”. I figured it out by working as a cashier, barista, etc

being a dude born in 1984 has given me a lifetime of microgenerational peers to fume about, lol. Zuckerberg, JD Vance, Lebron James, etc

“Who should we let set the algorithms for young men of the 21st century?” “How about a lonely college CS major with a few classes in psychology who just ran a website to let people rank each other on attractiveness”

If you’re in a fishing tournament, don’t take tips from someone on the lake!

Am realizing that w/in this post is something I’d seriously tell a young man: don’t trust a man who’s just supposedly giving you “how to have it all”. That’s an unseemly generosity, aka bullshit. If they’re telling you about something (successful dating tips) they should be non-competing.

One reason why Danny McBride is such a compelling figure to me is: this dude has been lampooning Dumb Fucking Men since roughly the beginning of social media and the Web. And yet (through the power of stupidity and computer), we have millions who go for that stuff, earnestly.

I keep trying to think of a single subculture of men from back in the day that would have even tolerated these two coming to the hangouts, let alone some hepped up internet-based manosphere guy. not just saying it for rhetorical purposes: I truly can’t think of one, except for scared/resentful nerds

The thing about Chicago is: it was largely built on slaughter

[judges confer] “5.0, 5.0, 5.0. Clean double kill.”

Now I have 3 things I’m adding to the Star Trek universe if I get a chance: bicycles, more overalls, and a Hatin’ Officer staffed to every Fleet deck.

Sorry to do a weird infrastructural question, but: what’s the “kill confirmation unit” gig like? Has anyone written on it in this context in Ukraine?

Is the Body of Christ better for its marriage to any worldly power? SOME ARE ASKING

[eyes go completely black, filled with The Foresight] “PETA disrupting a Talarico campaign event with a hog outfit” counts

I’m happily engaged and can now blow up the spot for young men. You don’t even have to be fully plant based, but: actually the boys who like some soy? we do just freakin’ fine

sorry, was off baseballing, am I to understand that Talarico has pulled a “Will Ferrell in The Other Guys” on his opponent? and it ain’t even June?? lol

FUCKIN RIGHT

Just have to say, few things would irritate actually existing fundamentalists more than saying “there is so much more in common between fundamentalists than there is separating them.”

they call me the Great Lakes Baseball Slut, i love em all

There is no way to hold (i) all the food you can afford on Dollar Hot Dog night in your arms and (ii) your dignity, simultaneously

I think the rebranded “C” hat is one of the sharpest in the game, tbh

imagine a pro sports league tolerating this in their stadiums and swag with any other historically oppressed minority, besides Native Americans. imagine a giant grinning blackface or Scheming Jew on kids hats and grandma’s shirt

The times remain fraught, so I have decided to allay my fears with a show of Midwest Delights *Guardians hopefully beating up on some visiting street urchins from New England

they’ve completed the White House mma arena
