the world’s richest man buying a website to make people like him and then running said website into the ground is just incredible.

I’m no businessman but it seems like the equivalent of the final screeching noise on the submarine before it implodes

hmmm

fresh cut

@JakeEdelstein25 @DylanLaney9 you’re both on thin ice for not telling me it was Aidan’s birthday

happy birthday to our own Aidan Gorny!

there is something deeply human about feeling “survival stress” like when I had to venture into mountain lion territory late at night vs the artificiality of “fake stress” like when money is tight one week or my job is overwhelming. Puts a lot in perspective.

getting nostalgic again. I enjoy the trappings of modernity of course (especially medicine!) but it is deeply relaxing to have your only stressor being whether you can find a running water source to drink from and your only problem being the trail you’re hiking is covered in snow

the bad dog has been found guilty by the ICC and is awaiting his sentence (having his hair cut)

Made the team pic my desktop background and I just noticed the terrifying smile Perlish chose to put on his face

D.C. had the second-worst air quality in the world Thursday morning, according to IQAir. nbc4dc.com/KYdtZg6

FCPS has cancelled all outdoor activities today due to the code red air quality. Athletes are strongly advised to erg indoors and limit time outside.

Code Red over most of the area this morning. Code Red begins at a 151 Air Quality Index. Many spots between 155-165. Bad air lasts through the day. Unhealthy for the general public. Limiting outdoor time is a good idea in Code Red or worse. washingtonpost.com/weather/2023/0…

@jkirk700212 go recruit some!

@rowcoachjack (I also don't know any other freshmen joining crew)

me waiting for the season to start so I can get the official Jack Kirk Fr8 Sleeper Pick

@jkirk700212 Mario and Karan both come from big rowing families. Feel like the sleeper pick should be someone totally out of the blue.

@rowcoachjack Currently on my radar are Mario Peale and Karan Suri, expect that list to grow as recruiting gets underway.

polling data is very interesting so far

🚨🚨MCC CHECK EMAIL FOR VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITY🚨🚨 and important poll

sometimes I think the stuff we say or do as coaches doesn’t have a huge impact on the athletes but then I remember I still have an Arby’s free meal card my college coach gave me after I PRed on a 6K in 2015
