So Philip Glass just joined TikTok. He only has like 4 posts and they’re simply him in what I assume is his living room playing the piano. First comment on one I saw was “your piano is too close to the fireplace, you’ll dry it out” and if that’s not the internet in a nutshell I don’t know what is.
Let me take a moment from promoting myself to promote my amazing wife, Laura Amoriello, who was profiled in the most recent issue of The Penn Stater.
I truly believe she's doing work that matters with musicians looking to find their groove. Please spread the word.
Today I Will Look The Burrito Man In The Eye and other stories of manifesting success
Nah, they're just trying to wake him up.
Fan giving Russell Westbrook the double bird.
Mostly because of what preceded it.
What athlete's expression will stay with you the rest of your life?
Has this call out ever worked on here? Of course not! But, remember: I'm a large idiot.
This month is packed. But I have openings in April and May. Let's get to work!
Once again, I remind you all that I'm available for assignments big and small.
If you want to know why summer 2025 was a load, the Unrivaled piece came right after I had filed this colossus.
Would I do it again? Hell, yes.
Another Unrivaled season is in the books. If you want to learn about how Napheesa Collier and Breanna Stewart created a popular, innovative league from the ground up, I wrote about it last year for UConn Magazine. magazine.uconn.edu/2025/10/07/u...

You could also watch OUT OF SIGHT, which might be a perfect movie.
Good reminder that we all need to log off and read a book.
On @pablo.show I talked about the limits of generative AI, and why the brainstorming process—which LLMs mostly eliminate, imo—is fundamental to doing *good* work.
And this is reflected at the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame. When I visited in September 2022, there was barely any mention of the ABA or the ABL or any of the predecessors to the NBA's (and WNBA's) flight.
I never thought I’d say this, but stick to sports.
How to win in November
I’d have bumped you up half a grade.
It’s egregious. And the delayed payment to retired ABAers.
It could very well have been my introduction to Doctor J, too.
That's a really good point.
This is something @vincegoodwill.bsky.social has long said about the current player -- there's no understand/desire/need/want to look out for the league as a whole, where it's going, what it's doing. And that trickles down to what we see on the court at times.
And, I nearly forgot, thank you.
Thank you, Michele! I'm sure you'll enjoy @lukeepplin.bsky.social's book as well. www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/luke-...
Yeah, do this. Odyssey Books in Ithaca is my go-to bookstore.
That's lovely to hear. He might be the last easily accessible superstar athlete. And him being from L.I. and playing for the Nets was just an amazing alignment.
Also, if your library doesn't have my book—or any book that you want to read—ask a librarian to procure a copy. They do that on the regular!
