@Bachscore This was such a great story I remember reading it then!

Four years ago, Sabrina Ionescu was the hottest player in college basketball. She led the preseason No. 1 Oregon Ducks to the brink of an NCAA title run—until the pandemic canceled sports. wsj.com/articles/the-h…

@AdamTrot @jenrunsworld @WSJ Oh noooooo!!! I loved that column! 😁

After a marathon run, What’s Your Workout has reached the finish line and come to an end. @jenrunsworld looks back on what she’s learned from nearly 20 years of talking to Olympians, national politicians and extraordinary normal folks. wsj.com/lifestyle/fitn… via @WSJ

I haven't seen a headline this good since 1999. 5⭐️effort, @WSJ

I thought I liked this story by @conniewang — but when I started crying at the part where all the Connies meet their namesake Connie Chung at the story’s photo shoot, I realized I LOVED it 😭 THE PHOTOGRAPHER WAS ALSO NAMED CONNIE!!! I’M SCREAMING nytimes.com/interactive/20…

@annehelen Shopping: in person or online, bargain-hunting and retail arbitrage. Some people make it a sport, keeping track of TJMaxx delivery days, which week/days of the month online markdowns hit, etc. Not just clothing/accessories, either--incl. home goods, decor, kitchen, linens, etc.

Just thinking of a hobby primarily practiced by women that takes even close to as much time as golf

So far this is the most share-worthy worthy royal death story I've seen! When the Queen Died, Someone Had to Tell the Bees nytimes.com/2022/09/13/wor…

@annehelen Jane Harper--either "The Dry" or "The Lost Man"--great "Outback Noir" :)

I need a good new thriller for vacation! I like: early Tana French like everyone & their dog, Ninth House by Leigh Bardugo, The Girl in the Mirror, House of Correction, Little Cruelties, Mexican Gothic

@annehelen Silent Witness! On Acorn! 👍 Start w Season 9, tho...

In search of a show to fill the space once occupied by Law & Order SVU. Needs: lots of seasons available via any steaming service (we essentially have them all), episodic closure but also (very) mild serial character development. Faves?

And Kane Brown’s “Like I Like Country Music” m.youtube.com/watch?v=ELZNCl…

I’ve become obsessed with country music’s self-referentiality lately - e.g. country songs about country music - it’s always been there but it’s ALL OVER right now Can you help me think of some pre-Taylor Swift’s Tim McGraw?
