Finally got around to downloading Reeder 5. It’s been a wild ride.

I’ve decided the Brooklyn Nets should only wear last years white Bed-Stuy Biggie jersey or their new black Basquiat jersey moving forward. No need for the regular black, white, grey, or future City editions. They have two perfect jerseys. Don’t fix what isn’t broken.

Just sent out the final beta issue of my newsletter, The Weekly Variable. Will have a full post next week as I gear up for Season One kicking off 3/15.

I started to think maybe the entire team wore them on their left in solidarity or something. But that’s not the case. Now I’m just focused on figuring out the shooting sleeve situation with the rest of the team.

The Dallas Mavericks have a group of five guys who are all on the court right now all wearing shooting sleeves on their left arms. There are four righties and one lefty. It’s freaking me out a bit.

Given his offseason comments though, I don’t know that Wilson would be very happy with the Bears O-Line.

Here’s to hoping the Bears can somehow come out of the offseason with Russell Wilson (sorry fellow Seattleites…) or Deshaun Watson. I’m wary of what they’d have to give up, but they have all the parts in place to be a good team and have just been (perennially) missing a QB.

So Ta-Nehisi Coates is writing a Superman film reboot. Incredible news.

Add another one to the Ballard Brewing District as Bale Breaker announces a taproom coming this summer. 🍻

Anyone here used to read The Awl? Has any site/blog filled that hole for you?

While we’ve had our differences, I’m excited to see Zach LaVine make his first All-Star team. He’s putting up numbers not too dissimilar than Bradley Beal (but winning more) and Kyrie Irving (but without star teammates) and not playing any worse defense (although still terrible.)

Hey World, blogging from Hey/Basecamp, actually looks pretty cool. I don’t think I’d abandon Blot or Buttondown for it, but an option if I ever wanted another space…. via: Colin Walker

As much as I’ve tried, I can’t get behind the idea of digital collectibles on blockchain. And I love to collect things.

Between the way my mind works and all the stuff to consume, I’ve found myself turning everything, even the most enjoyable experiences, into tasks that needed to be completed in order to get to the next one and I’m not sure how to stop. Movies, comics, beer, books, tv, music, etc.

Billy Donovan has done a tremendous job with the Bulls this season. It might not stand out too much in the standings or the stat lines, but you can see improvements across the board. Taking care of the ball, decision making, hustle, making the right pass. A world of difference.

Kyrie has been magnificent offensively this year. Some of the things he’s doing… just 🤯. Not only is he a wizard on the court, he’s shooting 50/40/90 for 28ppg and nearly 6apg. But he’s worse than my cousin’s 3yo on defense. The kid can at least follow the ball, albeit slowly.

Hadn’t watched tennis in forever, but Serena/Osaka felt like a must watch. Glad I flipped it on, but disappointed Serena couldn’t force a third set.

Need to find some time to update my About page and External Places one of these days…
