reliably funny thing in every documentary about WWE history is a bunch of talking heads going on and on about what a genius Vince is, followed by a cut to some big new angle that's like "next Stone Cold started a feud with the Puke Monster, a monster who pukes." Also the puke monster is a pimp

The writing coach trying to get me to go upstairs, then looking very disappointed as I walk past him to leave the house

Tom McAllister

I've been on a regular writing schedule this summer, going upstairs to my office at 10 and doing a few hours of work. The dog has so internalized this routine that now if I haven't gone up, he stands at the stairway, guilting me. Sometimes he just runs up and waits there for me to clock in

Received an advance copy of @adamoprice.bsky.social's collection from @autumnhouse.org today. Adam is one of the best living short story writers, no offense to other living writers who are reading this, and also he's coming to read at Rutgers-Camden in October. Excited to read this one

[Monkey's paw curling as I wish for the Eagles to be coached by a crusty old south Philly Italian guy]

Vic Fangio’s press conference not yet half finished and he’s already invoked Fauci as a synonym for ducking the question and stumped for Pete Rose as the best sports signing in Philly history. Welcome to Training Camp.

lamest Sixers take circulating is people going "oh no, we're going to be on First Take every day now." Folks, this actually doesn't affect your life in any way. Legally, you're not required to know anything about this
