Love that for the beard and funny moustache guy

Open world quest life, but instead of coins or potions I collect pizzas

Books.

Living the dream

This is an amazing piece of writing, but let's also celebrate the photo selection here www.basketballfeelings.com/p/jesus-was-...

Street Fighter-style NBA All-Star weekend where it's just one-on-one battles filmed live by auteurs. Brunson v Ant by a Safdie. Robert Eggers does Chet-Wemby. Luka on Giannis gets Emerald Fennell. SGA v Maxey, presented by Ryan Coogler. Spike Lee would 100% do one.

If they stick around, Max Bassin becomes the next canon drummer

Presently have Celine going all the way. But "Brick" might actually be the saddest song of all time, so not 100% decided yet.

For @marchxness.bsky.social, so I wrote an extracurricular about Mimi Parker, Low, love, sadness, and Minneapolis. Side note: Minnesota gave us Prince, Low, Bob Dylan and Husker Du. We owe those people. marchxness.com/the-essays?u...

Level of Excellence calling

Raptors need shooting, just sayin

Videodrome (1983) more prescient than ever

Get his ass

Escorted over to Ward’s Island this morning #Toronto

A hilarious, comforting presence for my whole life, and a Canadian legend who leaves a massive legacy behind. Damn. www.youtube.com/watch?v=GMVr...

Remembering when truckers descended on Ottawa to protest Covid vaccines and these two guys set up a hot tub

It is his time

MAMU

Funniest possible arc for this NBA season would be for the Raptors to trade Scottie for Kawhi, then win the championship

Vincenzo Natali's CUBE (1997) has proven to be one of the most prescient films of our time. The line "You have to use it, or you admit it's pointless," applies to almost all of the tech foisted on us since 2000. It's perfect for generative AI. It works just as well for ICE. We live in a giant cube.

Good one from @wtevs.bsky.social this morning in Basketball Feelings, about being stuck in the snow, and the psychological grind of the NBA's trade machine. www.basketballfeelings.com/p/relentless...

Abandoning literacy was a critical mistake.

Toronto should be positioning itself as THE alternative for any conference looking to move out of the US. Major economic opportunity.

Not beating the alien allegations anytime soon

What time is it, Mr. Wolf?

Still blows my mind that Dexter Holland made one of the most successful independent albums of all time, spun a couple novelty hits into a 30-year career as a punk musician, AND did a PhD in molecular biology on research that likely contributed to the treatment for HIV. What a dude.

Really, is there anyone in the NBA who looks more like a wizard?

Goddammit it I love Mamu share.google/ibxces08ZfPC...

Someone should finance this before I have to find my giant Mandy chainsaw

Sandro Mamukelashvili should be in the discussion for NBA sixth man of the year

CMB gives off big Predator vibes. He's gonna be a force.

Feel like I've read this somewhere before. @johnvaillant.bsky.social

Bukowski reputedly said of Al Purdy: "I don't know of any good living poets. But there's this tough son of a bitch up in Canada that walks the line."

Not just perfect. Best album of the 90s, period.

Classic Jim Henson ad.

I just did it. You can make your dreams come true, kids; you don't have to wait.

My New Year's resolution is to upgrade my trial to a paid subscription to Basketball Feelings. Original ideas, great analysis and insight, and writers that care about basketball and sentences. This is now I want sports media to work. Gotta support it.

I sent this video to my friend and she got mad at me

Merry Christmas, lads and lasses, a reminder that Lamar Hurd went on a legendary tangent about the Grinch, while still calling the game properly back in December 2024. Will forever be a goated moment in sports broadcasting.

I like peas, but I'm sort of baffled by the idea that the Raptors are bad. After being legitimate crap last year, they've been consistently in playoff position for most of the season. Yes, they're in a rough patch; RJ matters. But they're fun and good this year. Can we enjoy it? Toronto, man

Happy World Basketball Day

Now a pizza company is publicly calling out #Toronto ‘s long-delayed “rapid” transit lines for slow delivery. (A+ trolling, by the way)

For real, though, NBA should just change it to one free throw worth two points. Even if only for the last five minutes. Won't solve the problem but will make it all go faster.

The Knicks winning a title of any kind is a sign the apocalypse is imminent, unforch

Mick Foley's a big, awesome teddy bear of a dude. Probably one of the smartest guys in wrestling, despite the mauling he took in the ring. I got to trade Macho Man impressions with him once and I'm glad I can remain proud of that moment.
