It’s time to take a break from watching basketball for about a week during All-Star Weekend. Although I may catch the Dunk & 3-PT Contests on Saturday as per usual, I don’t actually watch the games bc it’s not competitive. I dunno if that’s a hot take or not but it is what it do 🔥 🏀

Many have been hurt by reality so they turn a blind eye to it. Instead, they meet it w/ fear, hate, & ignorance. You’ll understand their hypocrisy when you realize they don’t have morals & values, only an agenda. To be fair, you can replace the word “vaccines” w/ “supplements” & this meme still hits

The 2025 NBA trade deadline will go down as one of the most WTF moments in history. I lowkey like De’Andre Hunter to CLE & Mark Williams to the LAL but the BI to TOR & Middleton to WAS trades don’t make sense to me

This NBA trade deadline has been one of the most bonkers I’ve seen a minute. Luka getting traded reminds me of when Jason Kidd went to PHX. Fox to play w/ Wemby is a crazy PnR nightmare. Lavine to the Kings + 6 picks 🤯🔥🏀

I love video games so much because they can be all so different and tell amazing stories or just be silly. Am so grateful to the people that create them and share their art with the world. Thank you

I didn’t watch any ball last night & instead went to bed after the Rumble only to find out Luka got traded for AD?!?!?!? WITAF?!?!? 🤯 🔥🏀

The Rumble was pretty good & had some awesome moments. It started out 🔥 then the finish was 🗑️ I think Jey Uso is an amazing talent who deserves it but, at the same time, his matches don’t excite me. It’ll be interesting to see where this goes tho. Fatu & Breakker were memorable

Yo Penta & Rey Mysterio to start? Take this in! This is a dream match!

Time for the Men’s Rumble. My predictions are X-PAC & Chris Masters, CM Punk or whoever the #27 pick is #RoyalRumble

That was a very good match between KO & Rhodes w/ Cody retaining.

Anybody else get the feeling that the belts are gonna drop in this match? #royalrumble

Sadly, I missed the MCMG vs DIY but I’m here for KO/Rhodes
