Last month, we refurbished 10 tennis courts in Crotona Park — the only public tennis courts in the Bronx with lights for night play. We stopped by recently to see how things were going. Thank you to NYJTL, USTA and Yonex for helping us deliver high-quality public spaces that New Yorkers deserve.

This is why Spotify et al suck, they only play you songs resembling ones you already like, they take away discovery which is - no exaggeration - one of life's greatest pleasures

this is the ultimate end point of capitalism, ai will completely atomize everyone and there will be zero shared experiences. there will be no culture, only pure consumption. this must be resisted

Bella is such a loss to the show and they shone as a presence in those four episodes. Great fashion choices, great attitude towards the game. The Traitors’ biggest problem is the best players always go in the first half.

You wouldn't tell blind people there's been an overdiagnosis of people who can't see. The diagnosis makes no difference; if you have autism, you have autism.

I don't think autism and ADHD are over-diagnosed so much as day to day life stubbornly refuses to tailor itself to those outside of a small but influential and prevailing norm.

Emily✨@emilyoram.bsky.social · 2d ago

OK, probably true, but this isn't the fault of being diagnosed is it! It's the fault of social attitudes to these disorders and the way they're dealt with which isn't helped by people saying they're being overdiagnosed which just makes people think someone's looking for an easy way out.

The trend continues that the worst thing you can do in the first few Traitors eps is be not white.

Put him back in next year now he knows the rules #CelebrityTraitors

Wasn’t able to secure any review code for HELLRAISER unfortunately. But I found this amazing FB clip of Doug Bradley doing a Scouse Pinhead and now I’m crying from laughter. He’s amazing. (Source: YMH Podcast.)

Kemi Badenoch labels Andy Burnham a 'Paddington Bear Prime Minister'. What is that even supposed to mean?

this will be funny to like 3 people but I’m one of them and that’s all that matters

My interview with Maria Lessing from the awesome Future Palace is now online. We chatted purpose, ADHD, and the joy of making things with no audience in mind. distortedsoundmag.com/interview-fu...

I can't stop thinking how wrong the tech bros have understood creativity and creators. Or even just having hobbies. #erliart

I didn’t need much from The Last Blockbuster, just a lot of blue and yellow, the clicking sounds of a VHS case, and the nostalgia of wandering video rental aisles, and it has that! Not a great film, but a nice wistful vibe.

Also, pretty clear HBO Max is using AI to translate its show descriptions into UK English, because look what they call John Candy…

I may have figured out how to use something that rhymes with “BC-10,” and I’m jealous of the cool stuff UK HBO Max subscribers get: cheesy 90s TV movies (branded as HBO Originals lol), different classic films, and The HBO Young Comedians Specials, like this one: youtu.be/EwsHY0bb-gU?...

All gut, no thoughts:

I'd love to know if you took today's most popular songs and compared them to those ten, twenty years ago, if today's had more lyrics. Everything sounds so wordy lately.

This is a beautiful read about a generational artist (by a generationally lovely man):

I chatted to the incomparable Susanne Sundfør about faith, collaborating across centuries, and how her 14th century co-writer is ‘like the Beatles’. www.clashmusic.com/features/des...

I bring a little Ross Kemp energy to the party [convinced everyone is trying to kill me]

The thought of 8.9 million people seeing me out myself as a traitor in the first five minutes of the game keeps me awake at night

Jake Kanter@jakekanter.bsky.social · last wk.

Wow, massive start for #CelebrityTraitors. Season 2 premiere was watched by 8.9m viewers on the BBC, nearly 3m up from last year. A record season premiere rating for the show.

Spoke to @kevinwalls.bsky.social about Premature, his Glasgow-set rom-com (that's really a coming of age story), millennial anxieties, and romantic chemistry. takeonecinema.net/2026/prematu...

Premature: Kevin Walls interview | TAKE ONE Magazine | Interviews

Director Kevin Walls talks about his experience finding the right leads, doing Glasgow justice on screen, and why, to him, PREMATURE is a coming of age story at heart.

If I’m in that castle I’m keeping in whoever I wanna play with, so Richard could keep saying he’s a traitor and I’m still not writing his name til the semi-final #celebritytraitors

Happy Celebrity Traitors day to all who celebrate ⚰️

My teenage years were well spent hacking and slashing through the Dynasty Warriors series, will be picking up the DW3 remaster for a nostalgic no-thoughts-head-empty weekend.

Finished up my comms job today. A three month contract turned into seven years. Went by like that. I'm only moving desks and joining the fundraising dept tomorrow. Something new!

I mask pretty well, but there’s loads of paddling below the surface, and in private I find normal things to be disharmonious with my brain. @pierrenovellie.bsky.social's Why Can’t I Just Enjoy Things? is a real companion to those discovering their neurodivergence untypically and later in life.

Gutted to lose the greatest contestant in week 2. We'd love to be friends with her! #GBBO

Thank YOU. I believe profoundly that the only correct response to pleasure is gratitude rather than guilt
