You can actually do this FYI. It requires abusing a glitch in the backwards jumping mechanism which no 8-year old in the late 90's knew about, Read more
God bless Julius Hodge (and fuck Chris Paul forever). Read more
That’s true, but the way NCAA seeding works, sometimes a close loss to a good team is better than an easy win over a bottom-dweller, so while their W-L percentage might be lower, their overall RPI and SOS would be higher. Maybe it doesn’t work and everyone goes 2-2 over those games and then poops out in the first… Read more

I think if your biggest qualm with this particular item is, “ Well, actually, we’ll have to keep taking down statues forever,” then you’re missing the point, a bit.

Thanks, jamberg. Always nice to see you popping up under these pieces. I’ve got a much longer series on, uhh, basically everything in NC that’ll be going up soonish on Splinter, tbd on the date. I’m sure we’ll splice it over, but just a head’s up, in case you’re interested. Read more

Put on Lynyrd Skynyrd and just fucking get to clackin’. Also, stare at something other than a screen and walk around every hour, or so. My best ideas/sentences tend to come when I do this, then I sprint back to my computer or notepad to capture before it...oh, there it went. Read more
“Ride the big one” (if you’ve got a good story or are extremely good at something, lean into it), and “go where they’re not” (always look to write/report something different than what you’d normally read.) Also, what everyone else said: Read everything you can get your eyes on. Read more
All I know is one of them edited my Avengers blog and commented that it could have used 10% more heft to explain the Multiverse, and the other called me a nerd. Read more
I quit smoking and went to vaping and it’s made my life much, much better. Also, 420 is a day, and it is not unlike any other day, which is to say I’ll end up binge-watching the Boss Baby Netflix series tonight. Read more
