Cool. Have a good day.

Not everything is a binary, my dude. We’re not all different kinds of stans.

The Kings? At least make it a little bit of a challenge.

Also anything that takes some shine off Kobe is good, imo.

Exactly this. Bam’s a great player but more than anything, this should recontextualize Kobe’s 81. It’s not a mark of greatness by itself, but the product of a particular context and set of circumstances.

One day, they’ll even unload the dishwasher. (Kind of badly, but still.)

Like Corey Brewer or Tony Delk scoring 50, it doesn’t so much raise them in your estimation as diminish the achievement itself.

Mr. Beast-ass scoring record.

I can’t explain it, but Bam scoring 83 is the most Adam Silver-ass NBA era thing I can imagine.

If a group called the Wrecking Crew looks like this, you’re going to die in that pit.

Probably because the Hendrix original is obscure and the cover is mega-obscure, coming last on a tribute album from 30 years ago that's not on streaming services. But it's beautiful. Mike McCready plays his ass off and I love that there's no rhythm guitar. And Chris Cornell is lovely.

M.A.C.C. - Hey Baby

In the pantheon of "covers better than the original," this version of Hendrix's "Hey Baby (Land of the New Rising Sun)" by (more or less) Temple of the Dog is underrated. youtu.be/7mVZyPSaYug?...

I went to college with her and immediately pegged her as annoying and fake af, then she became successful and I was like, maybe she knows what she’s doing. Been gratifying to know I was right all along.

I don’t want to climb a mountain but I do want to hang out at basecamp. That seems fun as shit. Sleep in a colorful tent. Drink hot cocoa. When are you going to the top? Soon.

City Center used to be the center of our scene. Now City Center’s over, no one really goes there.
