My favorite part of the Magic-Bird rivalry is that two men from different worlds who competed like rabid animals came to legitimately love one another. That’s the best of what sports has to offer if you ask me.

I am so tired of living like it's the 1600s. Can I afford eggs at the market? Are my friends gonna die in the plague? Puritans coming for my sinful lifestyle. I want some modern problems. Modern Problems

Canadian thanksgiving is a tier one holiday. No gifting stress, no pressure to have fun like NYE, excellent food, feels "alt" vs the bloated American version, no religious stuff or pilgrims just a vague "harvest" theme, stuffing, 10/10

BREAKING: Donald Trump's personal library was destroyed in the FBI raid of Mar-a-Lago.
Both books are sadly beyond repair, and he hadn't even finished coloring one in yet.

Five kids risking their lives diving off some flimsy apparatus into head trauma water levels, while little Sally prepares to toddle on off out of the goddamn yard to god knows where. Just another normal 70s afternoon.

Thank god I was adequately prepared for the computer age by learning to write like some goddamn 18th century aristocrat.

“Well, lucky for you we have a thousand mini-cabinets filled with old lady recipe cards.”

Ban assault rifles, not books.
Regulate firearms, not women’s bodies.
Protect kids, not lobbyists.

It takes a monster to kill children. But to watch monsters kill children again and again and do nothing isn’t just insanity—it’s inhumanity.

If you didn't risk your life at least twice a day growing up in the 70s, you were doing it wrong.

I've been asked this a lot so it's worth saying publicly: you should never—like never ever—feel bad about getting my books from the library instead of purchasing them. Libraries are one of the best things in the world. It's a thrill to have my books in them. Support them always.

Neil Young is gonna regret this when his monthly Spotify checks for $1.37 stop rolling in
“They can have [Joe] Rogan or Young,” Neil Young wrote in a letter to his manager and label, “Not both." Young demands Spotify remove his music over "false information about vaccines" rol.st/3nXPaML

Throw up a hand if you pedaled around your neighborhood with no regard for the inevitable shin destruction …

There were more 3-pointers made last year in the NBA than in the ENTIRE DECADE OF THE 80s. Go watch a mid-80s Lakers-Celtics game and then come back and tell me it wasn’t way more entertaining than this glorified Pop-A-Shot they call basketball today.
