All time ethical hooper tape

Been off this toxic hellhole since November but there is simply no way I'm not going to be here for the next three weeks. March just matters more.

@RyDogFav "going to be"?

@the_SAND_ @RyDogFav US Open was a relative high but yeah dude has been struggling on everything that's not indoor hard courts

@brooklynbrunts @RyDogFav Tough few years for FAA

@the_SAND_ @RyDogFav Entertaining but mentally unstable. I fuck with the fact that he's doing it with the most unatheltic build of all time

@RyDogFav @brooklynbrunts It seems silly now but I got on the train in 2021 and I just can’t get off. I’ll stick with him through everything

@nathan_h_b The next guy to hit a home run needs to take that HR trident and ritually sacrifice Humpy and then we can get back on track

The Mariners let Humpy win again, an egregious and insulting indulgence that almost certainly directly led to yesterday’s loss. Only ritualistically sacrificing him can balance the humors and guarantee a victory this evening. Humpy must die.

@david_perell If Moses just stuck to parks NY would be a much different and probably better place.

I recently moved back to New York, and wanted to share some observations on my first few months in town: - Much of what makes New York great is that there’s a large contingent of people who donate money the city and its institutions once they’ve made it. John Paulson made a fortune during the Financial Crisis, and subsequently donated $100 million to the Central Park Conservancy. - My biggest complaint about New York is the ambient noise, especially the way subways screech as they turn and siren sounds reverberate between the skyscrapers. New York’s always had Main Character Energy, and all those noises are its way of being heard. - It’s rare to hear a thick New York accent below 34th street these days. - The lifestyle can be exceptionally decadent. The dinners, the drinks, the shows, the sports. - People talk about New York being one of the most diverse cities in the world, and in some ways it is, but I’ve been struck by how segregated the ethnicities are as well. There are Russian neighborhoods and Jewish ones and Puerto Rican ones and Greek ones and Chinese ones, and the list goes on and on. - People here are much more flaky than they are anywhere else, presumably because of the number of options available to anybody at any given time. - One measure of social trust is how many products stores like Duane Reade and Best Buy can keep out in the open. On that measure, social trust has fallen. My local Duane Reade has an always-on security guard. At Best Buy, the headphones have been removed from the shelves and you have to talk to a clerk in order to buy some. - CitiBike has crossed a tipping point where there are enough places to rack your bike that you never have to worry about if there will be one next to where you’re going. That, along with all the electric ones, makes cycling (as opposed to the subway) my predominant mode of transportation for longer journeys. - The name Manhattan literally meant “Island of Many Hills,” and a long bike ride will give you a visceral sense for those elevation changes. - I have a drive to work and workout 30% harder in Manhattan than I do anywhere else. - Charles Taylor wrote about “thin places” where you feel closer to God just by being there. New York is the opposite: a “thick place.” God feels more distant here, maybe because everything around you is man-made or maybe because the city lights blind you to the infinite cosmos. - New York restaurants are strangely reluctant to adopt Apple Pay as the default. In cities like London and Amsterdam, it’s the default. Waiters and waitresses bring the terminal to your table and you pay right there. In NYC, you have to specifically ask for it, and sometimes you even need to walk over to the cash register to pay with it. - New York has suffered from many infrastructure-related failures over the years, such as Robert Moses refusing to build a single inch of subway track during his time in power. But the one that irks me most is the dearth of public transportation options between Manhattan and the three major airports. On a busy day, an Uber from JFK to the city will cost you north of $200. - It is exceptionally easy to meet people in New York, but quite difficult to turn those into deep friendships. People are too busy and too scattered, which means you’re less likely to consistently see the same people. Then there’s the transience of the city. A bunch of people have two homes. A bunch more leave once they have kids. - Perhaps the biggest quality of life boost on the west side, as opposed to the east side, is that there’s a boardwalk on the west side between the highway and the river, while the highway runs right along the river on the east side.

Must have for balls and strikes tho. We can’t have these dudes continue to change the game while we have the perfect technology already.

VAR kind of sucks? Yeah it’s good for balls and strikes but just like the kneecap offside call in soccer these razor thin margins on a stolen base sort of go against the spirit of the rules.

@rationalyankee Man so many salty yankees fans. Its the same MVP fatigure that happens in the NBA. Bron deserved another 2 MVPs in his prime and Jokic should've had four straight. If Cal wins its a great story for baseball and Judge still has two MVPs already anyway.

This is actually insane and just shows why we shouldn’t care about league awards. Judge and Raleigh come into tonight with even odds to win MVP. Judge hits two HRs. Raleigh hits two HRs. Raleigh’s odds jump to -200 and Judge goes down to +160. If that doesn’t tell you that voters are looking for any reason to give it to someone besides Judge, then you’ll never be convinced. None of this changes that Aaron Judge has been a better player than Cal Raleigh this season. It takes two seconds to look at the numbers and figure that out.

Microdosing the weekend by setting my alarm 15 minutes early and pretending I don't have to get out of bed

Had to happen this trend sucks

I recently discovered just one beer™️ and I have to tell you it's a delight. Take the edge off without disrupting anything. Cannot recommend just one beer enough. sent from Austin-Bergstrom International Airport

Waking up early is always beneficial you just gotta make it passed those first 10 minutes of being irritated
