whoops, vice versa actually. the result of the point is announced by the umpire as it starts. interesting narrative wrinkle
if i turn on a tennis channel stream, any stream, within a few minutes the audio is lagging ~an entire point behind the video, which, it turns out, is pretty challenging
they should allow lu dort and kat to whack each other in the face for 48 minutes in a separate room from the basketball game
absolutely
photo of a page of a book: “When I meet up with the group, there are five other journalists and a publicist. I recognize a duo from The Athletic, one from Defector, and the last two are joking around with each other and the publicist in a way that implies they're Vegas locals.”
it was also the funniest surprise to see our site turn up in a novel?? the “one from Defector” sounds extremely beautiful and smart, as well as kind…

family life has both complicated and relieved me of my fandoms. its crazy how much more i like my daughter than Karl-anthony

we are way too far into the mainstreaming of vegan food for restaurants to still be salting food to ocean brine levels. you have other tools!
I was very very close to namedropping her here, definitely the last time I had this feeling
does this resonate with anyone else’s Victoria Mboko Experience
by the end of this weekend my phone had learned "cablp" without autocorrecting it. please enjoy my trip report: defector.com/criss-angel-...
yeah, it was strange for the piece to not hit a traditional "new yorker eurostep" and give the historical context, acting instead as if this is the first moment people have given this subject serious thought
yes, have to go broader
completely agree, it was too narrowly circumscribed on the company and their circle. i would've preferred a version that abandoned the "i visited a place" mag structure and just surveyed the landscape of thinkers on the topic (and i think he would do a good job at that)
this is pretty much where i stand
i didn't find it all that handwavey tbh, and in general i enjoyed it more than writing that treats "learning" and "thinking" and "minds" as if they were crystal-clear concepts we fully understand in ourselves
