Really experience the Gathering some day and you'll at least hold some (even minimally) higher estimation of ICP. Wild world but by-and-large friendly people
I’m more into literary stuff but I’ll throw some out there anyhow:
Recent stuff I hit:
Wandering Stars by Tommy Orange is decent so far.
Alphabetical Diaries by Sheila Heti is an oddly mesmerizing memoir.
Dirt by Bill Buford has great prose about the intricacies of learning French cooking in Lyon
All timers for me:
Preparation for the Next Life by Atticus Lish is a powerful novel.
Among the Thugs (another Bill Buford), a well reported, hilarious submersion into the Man U hooligan firm of the 1980s. As sports fans, do not sleep on this book
The Map and the Territory by Michel Houellebecq is a French novel about an artist whose fame instigates a police procedural that culminates with an extended meditation on nature and time
I will passively root for the Chargers now, just as I passively root for the Seahawks, Packers, Lions, Browns, and Raiders. I won’t go to bed mad when any of those teams lose but it’s good to see them win. With that said, I don’t care about the NFL and don’t fully understand how one’s loyalty to an NFL team could ever exist at the same level as loyalty to a school. Objectively, screw the NFL but it can still be fun to watch.
Is this osu's post-2020 do-or-die moment? Kinda feels like it. From my perspective at the Game this past year, their O line was moving our D line around quite a bit; the matchup was pretty even for most of the game. I still hope they all go gray at age 24 agonizing over M.
Gonna enjoy the result of the 2023 M season before expending any additional mental energy on those clowns in Bob Evans country.
I went to UW and so root for them in every instance outside of when they play M. Because rooting for them in this instance would mean rooting against M, which is inconceivable to me. As a quasi-academic stoner from Toledo, I understand why M did not admit me. But while UW is my school, M is my team. There is a dissonance if only because part of me wishes I went to M, but I'm also happy with my life as is and so don't regret not going as much as I did when I first learned I wouldn't be going. All of this is to say that there is no satisfaction without an M victory this evening. Every wish I have made since I was in fifth grade has been for M to win this title. The time is Now. Go Blue
Fwiw I thought of your line "star QB and the holder of the B1G's most unfortunate last name, Michael Penix Jr." whenever I thought of UW's QB this season.
The contrast and warm tones of those 07 film photos is amazing. I took a disposable to the RBG last weekend so hoping some of my shots hold a candle to those you posted (even though I never made it to center field, props on that btw).
Gotta check out Sethi myself. But I agree, spending money to bring joy is a good use of money (if all other basic needs like rent, food, etc. are covered -- but even if not!)
Spend your money to be there. Or you could end up waiting until "next time." I said next time prior to the last Rose Bowl Game we played in 07 and ended up waiting 17 years. Go now.
I watched at least one guy completely lose his temper after being unable to open his digital tickets due to a complete lack of cel reception in the arroyo seco valley. The WiFi the security ushers said was being set never worked. I was honestly surprised that a stadium in one of the most populated areas of North America had zero reception.
Alabama brought that same energy to the Rose Bowl Game. Their "Roll Tide Roll" skywriter was all I needed to see to understand that these programs believe they're entitled to spend enternity in the dark money prime of the 2010s. Now that we're all solidly in the 2020s they hate it.

Don’t go and get my hopes up like this

Kinda like when we hired nussmeier from bama
This could be, dare I say it, their Dave Brandon moment
Love the law library in the background

Anyone else notice a smile in the sound of Will's voice when he says he knows the answers to those questions? Or am I simply projecting?
You crushed it. Well articulated and formatted. Great entry.

Great line.
About dang time we make that string of words work for us. Tress was a prophetic weenie
Pristine shots of a truly epic outing
The orchestral sequence of the game is 🤌🤌

Let's win it
Let’s consummate the season and win the NC on Monday.

Thank you for the copious BBQ recs!
Where’s the best BBQ in the city?
Let’s keep it focused yet playful today. Perhaps a halfback pass or five! Go Blue

Seems like a convenient conspiracy to fire Day for some kinda cause
the Back to Back to Back shoulder prints 🤌🤌🤌
I love that they’re getting squashed by a team with a block M on their helmets
Vast Hollywood network
Indeed, ohio against the world!
Love me a good ohio state faux pas
The shoulder graphics are the real sauce honestly
M already went after them on 11/25
