I choose to believe the new movie is called this because Spider-Man will be facing Elton Brand in it

Oh I'm sure it'll still be Hanson, I think that part is safe.

They're putting SAS on their NFL coverage starting next year too, I believe. Bad signs all around.

If nothing else, it's incredible how much ESPN has allowed their brand to be deteriorated that people now see them as an outlet that will actually ruin preexisting good sports shows.

My first instinct is to say "There's no way ESPN would ruin NFL RedZone," but then I remember Pat McAfee having a giant role in the Home Run Derby for no reason and I think "Well......."

It's not about adopting that strategy so much as just communicating with guys better. Rn the male-advice industry is completely blanketed by right wing influencers, the right is gonna win on this purely by default so long as that's the case.

Exactly. The default opinion of young men rn is the left doesn't care about the things they enjoy in life, like sex and sports and meat. They see liberals as scolds who want to take it all away from them. It's not real ofc, but it's foolish to deny what a massive motivating factor it is for them.

My default take on literally any discourse from now until the end of time

It's funny how you can post the most innocuous thing in the world and if a thousand people see it, at least one is going to form the most deranged interpretation possible of your post - whether they share it with the world or not.

For real, because it's hard to turn off the part of your brain that's like "wait, are other people like this too?" Like it can throw off the way you go about your life.

Whoever came up with that "sticks and stones" idiom was wrong as hell. By all means throw stones at me, it won't have one-millionth of the impact that a really, really mean insult can.

I revisited Space Patrol Luluco the other day - an anime series so short that you can watch the whole thing in an hour - and what's funny is that while it's a very silly show, it has one of the coolest, chillest outros you'll ever see.

An NFL game in July? Only in Trump's America

It's pretty cool how July 2025 was officially the month of big name athletes returning to their former teams

Ooh nice, haha

You can scroll down his Twitter feed and you won't see even a single graphic. That's like... almost unthinkable for a sport's top insider nowadays.

One way you can tell ESPN doesn't really care about baseball anymore is they don't even bother making BREAKING NEWS graphics for Jeff Passan bombs the way they do for Shams and Schefter.

A lot of ppl see social media as like the vanguard in the fight for good in the world, and it *can* be once in a while, but more often than not, the ppl most plugged in on major issues spend all day just griping about other ppl's posts - and I promise you that that's not actually changing anything.

Using the internet becomes infinitely more pleasurable once you accept that your posts probably aren't going to change the world and that trying to convert people to your way of thinking is almost definitively a waste of time and that you might as well just post about what makes you happy.

Being outside is good for you, but it's extremely hot outside, which I don't like. A classic conundrum.

Huh, Shams said on NBA Today the Kings have offered the Warriors a conditional first round pick and a vet player for Jonathan Kuminga and the Warriors turned it down because they're looking for an unconditional first.

Yeah but I can tell you didn't try to upload a custom gif because it's not a video

Why don't you... try it?

Bluesky fun fact of the day: did you know that it's possible to upload gifs on here? You can only do it via a browser atm, but if you select a video to upload and choose a gif, it uploads the gif as a video.

Me firing a musket: Haha fuck yeah!!! Yes!!

Me reloading the musket: Well this fucking sucks. What the fuck.

Every other mission in Death Stranding 2 is like, "Sam, we're gonna need you to transport this loaf of bread to The Baker. Unfortunately, the DHV Magellan is incapable of transporting bread for some reason, so you'll have to make the 50-mile journey up the mountain yourself."

Every day, the Nuggets check their phones in mortal terror that Jokic will post that he's discovered Uma Musume, followed by an immediate follow-up post announcing that he's retiring from the NBA.
