the win probability at 9:09 point of this game which lists the Minnesota Timberwolves being 98.1% likely to win the game which they would lose 119 - 115 to the visiting New Orleans Pelicans.

love how @neworleanspelicans were less than 2% likely to win 3 minutes into the 2nd half before coming all the way back to win in regulation. #NOPvsMIN

Live updates: White House blames 'staffer' for racist Obamas post shared by Trump Trump administration live updates: New Jersey's special House primary too close to call

Haven't seen this angle mentioned, but it's an extraordinary national security risk to have an anonymous "staffer" impersonating the president of the United States, posting racist memes, from his personal accounts, at 10 PM.

a lingering what if from that averted pop culture moment that has been denied from our ongoing darkest timeline is how had it been used, the feasibility that Radiohead likely would've garnered an Oscar nod for it, might've won and—along w/ their multiple Grammys—could be halfway to an EGOT by now.

YouTube video by GnC Films Spectre (2015) Main Title with Radiohead Song & Credit

the revelation that Steven Soderbergh & Scott Z. Burns had developed a STAR WARS project for Adam Driver that Disney's leadership failed to greenlight vaguely reminds me of how Radiohead took time to record what should've been a Bond theme for SPECTRE that EON then rejected.

living in an era where what if THE TERMINATOR but Skynet gains sentience while the human race is too busy speedrunning IDIOCRACY is exhausting.

as someone who spent a misbegotten year working at mrs field's stand in an otherwise posh mall, mildly never.

( that's what i thought, and the moment i had 1st noticed it made me feel such sympathy for you, a total stranger. )

all this video did at the time for me was induce FOMO & an insatiable yearning for all the different presentation methods for SINNERS that never played in my market and that i never got to experience.

( unrelated, how much does that "n" in "ratios" irk you now that this post is doing numbers? )

to while away shut-in time due to icy conditions, i rewatched THE KNICK, and conniving hospital administrator Herman Barrow's character arc of secretly enriching himself by skimming off budgets for otherwise legit construction projects felt uncannily reminiscent of tᴙump, the WH ballroom & now this.

coming off WONDER MAN, i'm rewatching SHANG-CHI & THE LEGEND OF THE TEN RINGS on Disney+ w/ Destin Daniel Cretton & co-writer Dave Callaham's audio commentary. my biggest takeaway is how a boutique blu-ray label oughta release a special edition of SHORT TERM 12 featuring new commentary from Cretton.

THE BEATLES ANTHOLOGY. 🤔🤷🏻‍♂️🍏

dunno how you feel, but burning one's tongue is marginally preferable to burning the roof of one's mouth & having what feels like loose pieces of skin suspended from one's soft palate.

it has taken what could result in my 50th year on earth for me to see a Nick Cave song nominated for Best Original Song at the Academy Awards, yet somehow it is neither the one i most want to win—"i lied to you" from SINNERS—nor the one i think will win & i'd be ok w/ that result—"golden" from KPDH.

love it. how i wish the bluesky mobile app had the facility for me to save it for later use!

i wish this were a GIF.

it was brought to my attention—and now i can't unsee it—how much Lewis Pullman resembles Bill Pullman, so now it's got me thinking…

w/ an impending winter storm & the usual advisory warnings that accompany it, is there anyone else who thinks that being told to compulsorily drip one's hot & cold water taps on every faucet in one's domicile is playing right into the hands of big wastewater & their sewage industrial complex?

the Quizmasters John & James while John explains when would be a good time to apply one's joker, which doubles the points earned in that round.

in an atypical reversal of course, @cecy.ai @markhardboiled & i jokered *correctly* to win tonight's @geekswhodrink as "🖕We've got your dark mode QR code ordering right here!🖕" (at The Highball at Alamo Drafthouse – South Lamar in Austin, TX w/ @JohnWSmith @JSterlingPound) app.foursquare.com/s...

please let it be known that this is how i want the news broken to me when It Happens.

during the 2016 u.s presidential election rhetoric, the side that won the electoral college threatened that there would be a taco truck on every corner if HRC had won instead, and that now feels like the inflection point away from the cyberpunk promises of cheaper street food.

welp, by once again jokering the wrong 16-point round as usual, @MarkHardBoiled & i finished out of the money instead of tied for 1st on tonight's @geekswhodrink (at The Highball at Alamo Drafthouse in Austin, TX w/ @JohnWSmith @JSterlingPound) app.foursquare.com/s...

based on the internal email that was sent to staff when this was announced, the staffing changes they're wanting to make to go along w/ mobile ordering is a bell that cannot be unrung, b/c what server is gonna wanna come back after they've being demoted to food/drink runners w/ no skin in the game?

if Sony were to want to distance themselves from this mess, it feels more likely in the current atmosphere toward dwindling profits from cinema exhibition to end w/ the drafthouse ceasing to be a going concern than these VC caretakers acting in good faith & reversing course.

how the public & media outlets have been responding to this mobile ordering news, leading to alamo's new business daddy Sony catching strays, despite that it's coming from soulless suits leftover from their previous VC owners, could ultimately result in Sony deciding to cut bait on all this bad PR.

as i stated elsewhere in response to seeing this announcement, Ludacris being a part of this lineup is all the proof i needed that FAST 11 is never ever gonna happen.

the part of their calculus that the creatives responsible for MERCY have in their favor is Rebecca Ferguson; however, that Amazon MGM has relegated its wide release to January implicitly informs its prospective audience a ton about what they think of what they've got on their hands here.
