Hoops, cycling, and random moments of comedy genius. Skeeting is done by professionals.
Not a huge gels guy but their chews are awesome and the carb/electrolyte drink mix is top tier. Definitely going to keep buying from them to get my fitness up.

Rode 40 miles between Saturday and Sunday and still feel pretty good. Got me some stuff from Precision Fuel & Hydration and I can feel the difference.

Really really want to go back to Japan again soon. Crazy cool place. But the weather in Cali today got me like "I don't miss it THAT much" it's hot there in summer bruh

About to have a folding fold for the first time and I'm stoked. Can't wait to be the guy with the 8 inch tablet next to my face with the speaker phone on taking calls.

Spent an evening driving home from ice cream with 2 tweens in the back row of my truck scream singing along with songs from KPop Demon Hunters. My life is officially over.

I'm a Jedi Survivor - I'm not gone give up, I'm gone work harder, I'm gone be stronger.

About to watch #Fantastic4 with the kiddos. Bummer it's down bad right now I can't wait for this show to start after the first 37 trailers.

If you're not putting chili on your pastrami burger from the Hat, can you even call yourself alive? #theHat

Trump is a joke. And a pedophile to boot. All it's going to take is for a few Rs to be done with his nonsense and everything is back on the table. Impeachment. Removal of these corrupt members of SCOTUS. And it looks like it's already started...

Tied for worst - the jet lag coming back from a 16 hour time difference is crushing. I was at least 2 weeks trying to get right. Just brutal. Working, even from home, the next day was a rookie move and a mistake I won't repeat again.

Worst part of the trip? The freaking Thunder won the 2024-2025 NBA championship while I was on a train going to Nagano and YouTube TV isn't available there and I had to suck it up and watch via game cast from NBA dot com. #ThunderUP

3) other than in 2 instances I can think of, most people were super respectful and helpful, but you need to be able to speak a bare minimum of Japanese and understand the culture to be able to participate. If you make an effort, most will respect that and give you their best.

2) having a payment card system for trains, stores and the aforementioned vending machines is a game changer. You get a Suica or ICOCA and you load yen on it and you're good. Truly transformational.

Spent 3 weeks in Japan recently, and had a blast. 11/10 would visit again. Top 3 things for me that as an American, I didn't get until going there - 1) vending machines everywhere are a life saver in the summer months...

Superman was good. Just good. I like some of the things James Gunn does with his films, and GotG 1/2 were legit, 3 was a bit of a whiff for me. I would see Superman again with the kids, but I'm not sure it was the "reboot" the DCU needed. It not being a huge flop is a start, I guess?

Typical 19-6 Oklahoma City run in 5:33. Three Timberwolves turnovers in that span after making it to the first timeout of the period without a giveaway.

Thunder steals lead to death.

If the #Thunder can start making layups, they might just win this game instead of being down 4.

Only in the darkest corners of the latest nights did I dare whisper that the #OKC #Thunder might run the Nuggets out of the gym in a game 7. But it happened.

I don't want to hear about "playoff Jamal" ever again.

Tatum’s durability is probably the biggest reason Boston has consistently enjoyed so much success since he entered the league. Life could be very, very different without him.

Look at all those minutes!
May 13, 2025 at 2:21 PM
The salary cap issues and new ownership concerns were bad enough...so why not add a major injury to it? Smh - hope Tatum is okay!! 🙏
Fucking nightmare scenario for the Celtics. Absolutely brutal.

As we all expected, the ECF of Knicks and Pacers. What a time to be alive. Prayers up for J Tatum though - hope it's not what we all fear.
