I'm bored so I'm going to pick random ticket stubs from my envelope every day I remember and share a memory. I'd it self indulgent? Yes. Does that bother me? Absolutely

I feel so bad for the kids growing up who don't have ticket stubs. We used to be a proper country

That's entirely too many networks and streaming services

This is not morally or legally different than lining up two dozen men and shooting them in the face.

Unless and until some kind of compelling legal and moral argument is presented as to why this is a legitimate use of deadly force, this is just…mass murder.

Greed

I'm guessing it has something to do with the running of 26 miles at once

I, too, had fun watching them in 2016

Bluesky's first Demetri @demetri.bsky.social · 1d

Probably a cliche answer but the Grit and Grind Grizzlies.

2006 Suns

2007 Warriors

Here's a fun NBA question: not including past teams of the franchise you're a fan of, what was your favorite team to watch of all time?

For me, my favorite non-Timberwolves team to watch were the Adelman Kings. No team has ever had a prettier half court offense

Luke needs to retire from posting using a Walkmen song to overtake Matt for me

@mikeferguson.bsky.social LMFAO at your username

Obviously I enjoy following you and @thefarmerjones.bsky.social but I was a little worried when hours would go by and I wouldn't see a single new post on here a few years ago

Bluesky's first Demetri @demetri.bsky.social · 1d

When I first joined I would check this place out after hours of not doing so and there wouldn't be any posts that I missed. It was just me, my friend who invited me and Luke Bonner. This place is active now, content is way better than I expected. Wish more would make the move like you did

I'm sure it was unintentional but props for listing NPR, Atlantic, WaPo, and NYT alongside Examiner, Politico and Newsmax as conservative outlets

Kyle Griffin @kylegriffin1.bsky.social · 1d

Pete Hegseth has set a 5PM deadline for media orgs to agree to unprecedented new restrictions on their coverage.

Dozen of outlets — including conservative ones — have said they'll refuse to sign: WaPo, NYT, Newsmax, The Atlantic, WSJ, NPR, the Washington Examiner, Reuters, POLITICO, and more.

The Cleveland Browns are immune to parity

Mark Dziak @markdziak.bsky.social · 1d

And then there are the Browns

JP Acosta @acosta32jp.bsky.social · 1d

Parity in the NFL is so fun. Feels like this year if anyone can get hot going into the playoffs they can make a deep run

The fact that top Republicans are already fearmongering about, lying about, the No Kings rallies this Saturday, across the US, tells you how worried they are about public pressure and protest against their reactionary, autocratic, anti-American agenda.
