Is #Severance the most Twin Peaks-Ian show since Twin Peaks?
Very Online
The misogynists of Gilead say “Blessed be the fruit”; ours say “Grab ’em by the pussy.” Still, the sadism of the show’s fictional world finds ample comparisons in our own.
Kvaradona has arrived in Paris — such a great fit for them and a great career choice for him! #PSGAVL
Désiré Doué is special, man! #PSGAVL très très doué
Good Ebening, are we in for an Unai Emery masterclass?! #ChampionsLeague #PSGAVL
Humility, prudence, and honesty are not just nice virtues to have—they are practical tools that produce good outcomes. When you replace them with greed, lust, hypocrisy, and dishonesty, terrible things happen.

I’m no PSG fan, but my cousin took me out to the game today :)
With this 1-0 Win, PSG wins their 13th domestic title, league early
Never missing an opportunity to share fellow bon vivant Action Bronson’s adventures in Paris:
no one makes me want to roam the city [Paris] quite like American rapper and food enthusiast Action Bronson.

Life of a Sports Fanatic: chill Saturday night watching
- a doubleheader of the Riviera Derby between my AS Monaco and OGC Nice, ⚽️❤️🤍
- while catching up on my Orioles baseball game against the Toronto Blue Jays! ⚾️🧡🖤
This goes against a lot of things I believe in — which is unsurprising since it’s about New York-based corporate culture…

This #Orioles team is SPECIAL man! ADLEY and now O’Neill 🤩
Been stuck on something for work the past few days — something minor but couldn’t wrap my head around it.
Took some time to formulate it to my AI overlords, with the right context and suddenly things are cleared up. I love using it to help me gain clarity — feels kinda super power-ish

The Trump regime remains a shitty, segregationist enterprise that is unworthy of anyone’s respect or obeisance.
Finally took some time to open my @Topps Series 1 card packs today, ahead of the upcoming Baseball season :)
Been starved of Baseball — very excited for the start of the Tokyo Series later today between the Dodgers & Cubs!
Think of any game you played as a kid and I can almost guarantee you that you can play that game today “across new devices and in new ways” today. This doesn’t need AI at all, it’s been happening for decades via emulation.
Spent some time with the pals at Fixtured to tell my story of being a sports fan :)
¡Atléti por favor! Absolutely rooting for the Colchoneros tonight in the #ChampionsLeague return game against their archrival and perennial Karen-team Real Madrid
Very excited to open this baby up in the next few days: ⚾️ 🃏

📺 Onside: Major League Soccer ⚽️
3/10/25
Recently finished Onside: Major League Soccer, the documentary series on TV+ about the past MLS season.
It was a nice and refreshing view compared to team-specific documentaries I’ve seen in the football (⚽️) world, and I really enjoyed the variety of discovering different teams, personalities, and players!
For someone like me, based in Europe, it was super useful to learn more about this league and its personalities. I wish more teams were covered, but I’m assuming that this would be the case if the show was to get renewed for another few seasons… MLS has definitely had the perception of being the “soon-to-be in the Top 5 of football leagues in the world” for 15 years now and we’re still waiting to see it happen, but at least the marketing has been good and the level of play has increased significantly. Though there’s still a lot of work to be done at youth level for the sport to become as mainstream and universal as it is in the rest of the world.
Next up on my watchlist:
- Drive to Survive (Season 7), before the start of the new Formula 1 season, this weekend.
- The Handmaid’s Tale (Season 5) for research…
Fun day out today: friends, bike rides, and long walks in our former neighborhood 🌞 🧑🧑🧒
- Tibz, what is it like living in Europe?
- Like this…
Gonna be partaking in #FantasyBaseball for the first time this year (outside of Sorare)… anything I need to know? Any strategy or tips? ⚾️ 🧡 🖤
