I honestly try not to be surprised anymore because the bar these days is so, so low… but what the fuck possesses these people to say shit like this on national television?

Laura Bassett@lebassett.bsky.social · 3w agoOof. Good luck football Spurs fans… have you considered enjoying basketball instead?
Michael Caley@michaelcaley.bsky.social · last mo.good lord this is a disheartening article -Lange still in charge of football operations -plan to focus near-exclusively on PL transfer targets -belief that problem in the past was lack of funds rather than quality of targeting and squad-building www.telegraph.co.uk/football/202...
Do we think Wemby will get a block for stopping that last second heave lol #nbafinals #nba
Ran out of gas a bit, but SGA can hold his head high. Great game from him. He needs some backup to be able to beat these Spurs though, it seems. #wherewasChet
Jay@lansdaal.bsky.social · 2mo agoAlso SGA showing his MVP level skills. First time this playoffs; let’s see if Spurs can withstand that - could be a problem in a tense 4th quarter.

Breath of the Wild was one of the first games where I went in thinking I would like it, it was hugely praised, and I… just didn’t care for it at all. Weapon degradation wasn’t the biggest issue but it didn’t help with my frustration levels.

Obviously OKC (and especially SGA) can play better than last night, but it’s gotta be worrying for them that Spurs won G1 while shooting 30% from 3, and with Fox out/Castle having 11 turnovers. #nba
Shannon was really good for Minnesota, I hope he can keep getting better. Not sure what the market looks like for Randle but I would try to get Ant some other help so he isn’t congratulating the opposing bench with 8 minutes to go again. He doesn’t deserve that.
My most common thought these playoffs: “Dylan Harper is *so* good” #spurs
These Waymo vehicles… one started to move into my lane while I was in its blind spot (?), then seemingly spotted me (thankfully) and swerved to the other lane instead and … just stopped. Blinker on, three quarters in its own lane, a quarter in the other, not moving, blocking traffic. The future!
That last dunk was insane; what a performance!
NBA@nba.com · 6mo agoStephon Castle ERUPTED for a 40-POINT TRIPLE-DOUBLE in the Spurs win 🤯 40 PTS (15-19 FGM) 12 REB 12 AST 3 STL
Riveting television right now on NBC. Who hung on the rim too long??
Tom Orsborn@tomorsborn.bsky.social · 7mo agoOpening tip delayed due to work needed on one of the baskets.
… while Spurs are -23 with him off the floor. Crazy!
NBA Stat@nbastat.bsky.social · 8mo agoVictor Wembanyama has only played 7:19 minutes so far in this NBA Cup semi-final. He’s +20. Absurd. #NBA
Playing in a “Premodern+” event (Premodern with enemy fetches) this month. Gonna play this list that I’ve been playing in regular #Premodernmtg with worse mana. Love drawing my whole deck and then forcing my opponent to draw theirs +some
We found a forever home for Dante! I think Winnie is going to miss him though 🥲
We are currently fostering a 13yr old grey toy poodle mix, he’s getting along great with our own two toy poodles. Here he’s featured cuddling up against our old gal Winnie.
ESPN we really don’t need to keep seeing the pain over and over. There’s plenty of exciting action to replay.
Two recent #premodernMTG decks I’ve had some succes with. Basically took the Tireless Tribe deck, yanked out Quiet Speculation and put that in WGU threshold, replaced it with Armadillo Cloak, Sylvan Library and Flesh Reaver.
Premodern is such a fun format!! To all those that would like to try and are on the fence: there are several decks that you can build on a budget to play with friends, especially if you don't care about the original old border printings. Below, some low to medium budget decks I've built in paper:
Jumped into the #mtgPremodern Unchained event last minute and decided to run back BW Necro with Diamonds. This time also Lotus Petals.
Sharing this quote from “Origins of Totalitarianism” today for no reason at all: Totalitarianism in power invariably replaces all first-rate talents, regardless of their sympathies, with those crackpots and fools whose lack of intelligence and creativity is still the best guarantee of their loyalty.
My deck for the last week of #mtgpremodern Spice Paradise. This deck was based on an old Inquest Invasion Block Domain deck that I always kept together as one of my first “real” decks. I updated it with some insight from Kai Budde’s GP London winning deck.
