Bending the rule a bit here, but missing a screening of “Beavis & Butthead Do America” ended up being the catalyst that broke up a promising new relationship. My then-roommate jokingly suggested seeing it days later; seeing the movie in that context became a lesson in correctly reading tea leaves

Vance is a troll. Stop reposting his troll videos and stop getting mad at them. Stop. And. Think. That’s the entire point of making the videos.

WASHINGTON—With the United States facing a daunting array of problems, leading historians reminded the nation that when making tough choices, it never hurts to stop, take a look at similar situations from the past, and then think about whether the decisions people made back then were good or bad.

Good thing Durant didn’t want to play in MN, as any package close to this from the Wolves would have set the franchise back three or four years. Lots of Wolves fans will be happy with this news.

The trajectory of the NY mayoral race has made it ridiculously clear that the Dems are operating as (at least) two parties—the one that has the money and entrenched power, and the one that has the broad constituency and forward momentum—that aren't really even coalition partners

Can't imagine why he picked this holiday of all days to talk about people not wanting to work it is a mystery

It’s really discouraging how racist everything is and is getting with no apparent formidable opposition to it

the destruction of chattel slavery is one of the great accomplishments in our nation's history and the reason conservatives hate celebrating it is because doing so legitimizes the black counter-narrative of the united states

I just opened Bluesky and the first thing I saw was not news of Sly Stone’s passing, which feels wrong. RIP to the giant.

Great unconventional call to not cover Caruso inbounding in favor of having an extra defender at the rim.

Why am I seeing a Fantastic 4 graphic on an NBA basketball court during the NBA Finals, on multiple possessions?

No matter the outcome, I’m grateful for the distraction of basketball in the midst of moving, hectic work obligations, a mild but pesky cold, and long-term physical therapy

Rooting for the Pacers but they’re on, what, a 34-turnover pace? I hope the Wolves are feeling a little better about themselves seeing what’s going on

If anything this should give the Wolves some hope that they can still play hard and win, but it’s going to take a Herculean effort to win three in a row.

At least Jaden got a well-deserved “Bang!” from Mike Breen for that corner 3

Spent the entire day beginning a big move into a new house, so I have only been able to be stressed about this game for about ten minutes. Wolves keep hitting shots, but just cannot get enough stops

I think the Wolves are on a 20-4 run after the 11-2 OKC start?

Win by 50, because OKC can. It is a show of respect!

Finally got a glimpse of our new home today since my work schedule hadn’t lined up for it. I’ll miss Costa Mesa but the have/have-not line can be stark there, and it was impossible to find a rental home with a yard at a “reasonable” price by Southern California standards. Anaheim will treat us well.

Welp, looks like the Wolves found something, but ran out of game clock. Now down 2-0.

Lo! The foul merchant hath stumbleth yet again and baited the refs successfully with another fraudulent self-kerfuffle. I didn’t think anyone could be worse than Harden, and yet.

They are trying, that is for damn sure. Down to 13 a second ago

OKC is very good and SGA’s foul baiting is bad for the game of basketball. Both can be true.

Busy day, just tuning into Wolves/OKC. Seems like a combo of OKC committing a half-dozen uncalled fouls on every possession which consequently gives the Wolves no ball movement, and now they’re down 17. Do I have this right?

Tough to win when shooting only 34%. Hoping they can force the lead down to single digits

Randle is such a wrecking crew by himself right now that the ESPN crew seemingly did not make a big deal of Edwards getting back to the court?
