This one brings all the feelings. Watch “Roger Federer | Our special #18” on #Vimeo vimeo.com/202270931?ref=…

How can we still live in a world where Israel is allowed to murder hundreds of people, at least 250, — with 100 bombs dropped in 10 minutes across Lebanon — and there is not a single word of condemnation from Western government? How can we live with such abomination?

@pavyg @ROLEXMCMASTERS Does Djokovic have any morals?

🚨Jannik Sinner who asked Zizou Bergs to be his doubles partner at @ROLEXMCMASTERS has sensationally withdrawn from the doubles event after just 1 match. Does Sinner have any morals at all?

@pavyg @fealori2012 Oh, thanks but I’ll go with what young and old Parisians consider an afternoon well spent. You can do what your average blue -collar Brit would do for fun—go to a pub, watch men punch each other in the face, and place bets on who’s going to win. How does that sound to you?

@VolleyMePlease @fealori2012 Go read a book BG. 👍 What's the most exciting thing you will do when on holiday in France? BG "read a book." 😂😂 Live life a little mate. 🫶

I do suspect that Tennis is unfortunately rife with match fixing, doping, draws being fixed and surfaces/balls being tailored to the preference of certain players. Tennis has an anti corruption unit formed in 2022 called the ITIA but I have reasons to not trust that unit either.

@NO1VAK_ Not even by Djoko fans. Federer and Nadal. And now Alcaraz and Sinner are creating their legacies.

Years from now, this era will be remembered for one name. Novak Djokovic 🐐

@pavyg @fealori2012 Yeah, they really scripted the game to benefit that guy with the most grand slam titles… I mean talk about corruption. 😆

@fealori2012 💯

The city of Andernach, Germany planted 101 varieties of tomatoes in the town center and told everyone to take whatever they wanted. It was such a hit they did beans the next year, then added onions, fruit trees, lettuce, zucchini, berries, and herbs. All free to the public and maintained by the city. Andernach is now known as the "edible city." Philadelphia has been doing a version of this since 2007. The Philadelphia Orchard Project has helped establish 67 sites across the city with thousands of food-bearing trees. Baltimore is planting fruit trees on sidewalks. Seattle, Boston, San Francisco, and Asheville all have public urban orchards. A mature apple tree produces 400-500 pounds of fruit per year. A mature pear tree can produce for 75 years. We've decided our cities should have trees. We just haven't decided those trees should feed people. Would you support urban fruit trees and vegetables in your city?

There are so many ways of being despicable it quite makes one’s head spin. But the way to be really despicable is to be contemptuous of other people’s pain. —James Baldwin

Matteo Berrettini defeats world #10 Daniil Medvedev 6-0, 6-0 in 50 minutes to reach the last 16 in Monte-Carlo for a 3rd time. What the...

Everyone has their own way of solving problems..🦙😅

@pavyg @festivetables You’re hopeless.

@VolleyMePlease @festivetables So at least you admit Alcaraz knows! Finally. 🙏

Alcaraz knows....

@NickRussoMma @DoggieBonkers @FurkanGozukara @grok Of course. It’s a medical term. They didn’t teach you that?

@VolleyMePlease @DoggieBonkers @FurkanGozukara @grok LMAO "the r word" 🤣 😂

Hey @grok what education level writing is this

@pavyg @festivetables Only Alcaraz knows. Stop assuming.

@VolleyMePlease @festivetables You?

@NickRussoMma @DoggieBonkers @FurkanGozukara @grok I don’t know. You’re the guy using the “r” word and acting very emotional.

@DoggieBonkers @FurkanGozukara @grok If you think thats how it plays out you a truly retarded. Its funny how all you liberals only think with your emotions. Do I have to explain or can you figure out how it works on your own? 🤦 its pretty simple lol

@pavyg @festivetables To you.

@festivetables Seems that way.

@having__fun Transforming into Rafa.😉

wait what is wrong with iga's finger

@festivetables @pavyg And you, Nole fans?😏

@VolleyMePlease @pavyg Calm down. You come off unhinged. 💉💉💉🦊🦊🦊

Non stop Jannik Sinner propaganda.

@festivetables @pavyg No. It’s you consuming Pavvy’s pablum that seems like it’s nonstop Sinner…

@pavyg Foie gras is made by force feeding geese with a funnel until they are stuffed. The tennis overlords are treating the public like geese Force feeding nonsense involving Jannik Sinner down our throats 24/7 🤮

@pavyg Looking at your Twitter, I’d say, yes. You write about him all the time. Now look at TennisTV account and realize you’re full of bs.

@FedlyneSG @pavyg @ROLEXMCMASTERS I’m devastated.

@VolleyMePlease @pavyg @ROLEXMCMASTERS At least if you had read, you would have spared yourselves from looking ridiculous. 🙄

Fan mania in Monte Carlo… …but who are they watching? Wrong answers only 👇👀

Andy Weir describing how he wrote The Martian and film got made is very entertaining. He said, “I wanted to make sure dorks like me would enjoy it, so made it as scientifically accurate as possible” Here the play-by-play: ▫️started writing full time in 1999 after getting fired from AOL (which had just merged with Netscape) ▫️he was a programmer and had a ton of stock options…because he was fired, had 6 months to excercise them and sold at AOL’s peak before bubble popped ▫️spent 3 years on book ideas that got “no traction” (and no agent wanted to sign him) ▫️went back to work as software engineer and wrote online as a hobby (webcomics, short stories, serials) ▫️The Martian was one of three serials he was working on 2009 (other one was about alien invading earth, another about a mermaid in 19th century New England) ▫️sent stories to a mailing list of 3,000 readers he had built up over a decade ▫️took 3 years to write The Martian, “posting a chapter at a time [every] 2 months” or so ▫️ “spent more time researching than writing, because researching was more fun than writing” (very relatable) ▫️readers corrected him along the way and when he was done, a bunch of them asked if he could make a Kindle version because reading it on his website sucked ▫️Weir didn’t want to charge because was making solid living as programmer…but Kindle has minimum of $0.99 ▫️all his fans started buying the Kindle book and leaving positive reviews ▫️this “sales spike” pushed book up charts and hit bestseller lists and just snowballed after that on Amazon ▫️within a short span, major book publisher reached out…then Matt Damon expressed interest on a film project…then Ridley Scott threw his hat in the ring ▫️Weir negotiated these deals while “debugging code” on his day job Described the process as “one of those things where everything just snuck up, bit by bit” before boooooooooom!! Film came out in 2015: made $630m on $105m budget (and Project Hail Mary might pass that now). *** Link to vid (2017): youtu.be/EXD3b6OLtsg?si…
