I've been making YouTube videos of my latest obsession: Pinball. I get a little better and learn every video. www.youtube.com/@greenchile27

FIFA is such a joke.

From @theathleticfc.bsky.social: Cristiano Ronaldo has avoided a suspension for the start of next summer’s World Cup after FIFA handed the Portugal captain a three-match ban, with the final two games suspended for “a one-year probation period.”

If you need AI to tell you what sort of things to discuss, you're probably so incredibly boring that no one wants to talk to you anyway.

This is so soulless, I can't stand it. We have BRAINS. We can USE THEM.
Al is also changing how we communicate. With so little free time and so much pressure to be perfect, many who've never cooked a turkey might have a chatbot walk them through the steps, feeling safer asking "stupid questions" in private. People even report using Al conversation prompts to get lively discussions going at the table. Al can generate the toast, the prayer, the party games and the poem read before dessert.

Ben Smith after reports came out that Olivia Nuzzi had a relationship with RFK Jr.
Screenshot from Semafor: But now that we are in the full fury of American media prurience and self-righteousness, I am going to risk my neck on a slightly contrarian view. Reporters have all sorts of compromising relationships with sources. The most compromising of all, and the most common, is a reporter’s fealty to someone who gives them information. That’s the real coin of this realm. Sex barely rates. You won’t hear many American journalists reckon with this. (Some British journalists, naturally, have been texting us to ask what the fuss is about. If you’re not sleeping with someone in a position of power, how are you even a journalist?) The advice writer Heather Havrilesky texted me Saturday that “the world would be much more exciting with more Nuzzis around, but alas the world is inhabited by anonymously emailing moralists instead!”

There are two great SW movies (1 and 2 here) and one great show ("Andor"). The rest ranges from fun slop to awful slop.

haven’t seen ROS or Solo but this seems like a pretty ball-knowing list from Pritzker, particularly if he volunteered the name “Star Wars” rather than “A New Hope”
So, we asked Pritzker to weigh in on the go-to debate for every "Star Wars" nerd: Which movies are the best? Here's his ranking of the 11 major films in the series: 1. "The Empire Strikes Back" (1980) 2. "Star Wars" (1977) 3. "Return of the Jedi" (1983) 4. "Rogue One" (2016) 5. "The Last Jedi" (2017) 6. "Revenge of the Sith" (2005) 7. "The Force Awakens" (2015) 8. "Solo" (2018) 9. "The Phantom Menace" (1999) 10. "Attack of the Clones" (2002) 11. "The Rise of Skywalker" (2019)

Star Wars is just a bunch of bkinda ad to very good kid-friendly adventure movies that some people are very dedicated to pretending are more than that.
