Attorney (but not yours) with a sneaker and jpeg obsession. I mostly tweet about digital assets and Alabama basketball. Can't say I didn't warn you.

LOOK: Alabama HC Nate Oats pictured alongside former Alabama HC Anthony Grant during a team photoshoot for the 2026 USA Basketball Men’s U18 National Team. Grant will serve as the head coach and Oats will join the staff as an assistant coach. What are your thoughts on this? 🤔

@j_riley_key I was a Southwest boy for a while because they have the most flights in STL and I had priority/always got good seats, and thought a flight is a flight.
I’ve been converted to Delta. Customer support/service on the flight are also always top notch.
English
Idk about all of this, but I was on a Delta flight Friday and the internet was so good I was able to take a video call from the air.
So it will continue to be the first airline I search for flights on for the foreseeable future.

Americans tend to hate airlines. But Delta isn’t like most airlines. Through a combination of tech savvy, deft marketing, and opaque loyalty programs, a company that grew out of a Georgia crop-duster operation a century ago has made itself the most unlikely of things: a lifestyle brand. Its customers aren’t just loyal. They post their boarding passes as status symbols on TikTok. They collect Delta trading cards that can go for thousands of dollars on eBay. And they obsess in online forums over how to secure access to — then not get expelled from — its elite tiers. They also go to great lengths to avoid flying any other airline. Delta has the world’s most successful airline loyalty program, SkyMiles, with an estimated valuation of over $31 billion. Today it’s estimated that SkyMiles members have grown to over 120 million; the 360° program is estimated to have 5,000 members. SkyMiles members are so devoted they barely flinched when Delta did something two years ago other airlines had long wished to but couldn’t: It tweaked the formula of its loyalty program to reward travelers for how much they spent instead of how many miles they traveled. This was a significant pivot for the airline industry, but it worked. When consultant Peter Thorp got an email announcing an increase in the qualifications for his current status, he wrote a letter to Delta, saying, “‘Look, it’s your company, you get to do what you want. However, pardon my French, but don’t fucking tell me it’s a good idea to change it in a way that it’s going to be impossible for someone like me to continue at that level of status.’” Delta never responded. Still, Thorp sees himself continuing to fly Delta. Read Ben Ryder Howe’s report on how Delta Airlines is winning by catering to the elite: nymag.visitlink.me/oOYjpu

Not sure I’ve ever seen a 2 hour wait to get into a conference before @consensus2026. I didn’t want to see the first half of the conference anyway

you know the art hits different when your timeline is full of tweets like this
EJR@EJRWEB3
For everyone who panic sold the floor from 1.7 ETH down to 0.80 ETH: The floor is already back at 1.25 ETH. If you dumped into 0.71 WETH bids, someone smarter immediately relisted nearly 2x higher and it sold within 15 minutes. (see image ROFL) There was also a 3.00 ETH sale just 17 minutes ago. This is special art. Low supply, strong holders, and it’s dominating the timeline. Small tip: learn how to trade before you start trading.

@BirdnalsLAW Miami is a much easier sell to higher ups than Toronto
English
Maybe it's because of my new role, or maybe it's because it's in Miami, but seems like so many more people are heading to Consensus this year than last year?
Either way, looking forward to seeing y'all there! Let me know if you are going so I can be sure to connect.

@austincampbell @danielsgoldman You forget that Ben played a Gotham law enforcement officer on TV so definitely knows what he’s talking about
English
The GENIUS act, which was meant to stop scammers and which was based on NY state’s regs and came from Maxine Waters and McHenry originally, under Biden, is a right-wing giveaway…?
Hard to draw a conclusion other than @danielsgoldman is the vastly superior option.

Ben McKenzie says he's voting for @bradlander because of Dan Goldman's vote for the GENIUS Act—Trump's huge giveaway to the crypto industry. (via @BulwarkOnline)

@JacobRobinsonJD @BirdnalsLAW Don’t flatter him. His head is big enough

If you want to get caught up on the prediction market oral arguments in the 9th Circuit from last week and all the other crypto legal developments I'm tracking, you found the right place!
Here's everything that happened in crypto law last week: nfttorney.com/2026/04/22/off…

@HarperNation24 @Catsforthedub Fair point, but we don't have a Grant Nelson to play half the game at the 5 to make up for it. And we both know those were not the reason Bethea didn't succeed at Alabama. They were a good excuse for why he didn't play much through January.
English
@j_riley_key @Catsforthedub Bethea was hampered by injuries and didn’t have a full offseason basically. Alabama made the final four with Nick Pringle as the primary 5. That’s all they need.

This is a guy I really want
The Portal Report@ThePortalReport
Jamarion Davis-Fleming will visit Alabama tomorrow, he tells TPR.
English
@Catsforthedub @HarperNation24 Would be nice, but not counting on it. Jalil Bethea was a McDonalds AA too and barely played for us in his redemption arc season
English
@j_riley_key @HarperNation24 BG showed some flashes late in the season that can kinda give you guys a little bit of hope going into next season. He was a McDonalds all American so maybe senior BG gets it all to click
English
@HarperNation24 That was definitely effective with Bediako and Cliff over the years, but I don't think either guy are near those two personally. And we also had a very strong stretch 4 to pair with them, which we don't really have un less Jemison makes a big leap
English
@j_riley_key I think we just need to get more athletic bigs to play at the 5 to rim run and defend. That’ll be an upgrade
English
@HarperNation24 That wasn't really the point. If we are relying on backups from bad SEC teams to start, we are in trouble.
English
@j_riley_key Wouldn’t be worried about scoring at all lol

@BoggsUA @BurnerLJohnson @jd_smelser20 Fellas, the portal is open. We don't have time for this right now.

🚨BREAKING: Nate Oats has signed a new contract that will make him one of the top five compensated men’s basketball coaches in the country. Appropriate members of The Board of Trustees have been notified of the proposed terms of the new agreement and it will soon be formally approved through the Board process. @nate_oats @AlabamaMBB

@CoachBeaumont How is anyone focusing on anything to do with this story other than that the guys name is Cardinal Pizzaballa
English
1 cop made a mistake that the authorities have rectified. But yeah make it an international incident.
Isabel Brown@theisabelb
My heart is absolutely broken over the news from Jerusalem today that the Israeli government has denied access to the Church of the Holy Sepulchre to Cardinal Pizzaballa and 4 other priests to celebrate a private mass on behalf of the faithful denied the right to gather on Palm Sunday, and yours should be too. This is an unprecedented move that has ramifications and impact worldwide, and matters deeply in our continued fight for religious freedom around the world.
