'Shoresy' is Better Than 'Ted Lasso' 'Shoresy' is one of the best shows airing right now, an emotionally satisfying, uplifting, and singular merging of sports drama and comedy.

New at @popheist.com, I wrote a thing I've been thinking about writing for a long time, because SHORESY Season 5 is great.

Go 'til you can't go no more!

POP QUIZ HOT SHOTS: what are some of the most stylistically bold and formally daring music docs you've seen that are about specific scenes or eras (as opposed to hagiographies on specific artists or bands)?

(Signal boosts greatly appreciated for this one!)

Trying to leave lasting memories of us for our neighbors before we get out of here so I just went out to the garage while BLASTING Steve Winwood's "Valerie."

Gonna be like "Whatever happened to that Super Cool Guy who used to live across the street?"

The lust people have to argue online is in itself a weird bubble. I don’t wake up hoping to have arguments with people, I wake up with the idea that I’m probably going to talk about sports or movies & say weird shit and sometimes arguments arise but usually from annoying assholes, it’s not a virtue

Sorry I'm not more open-minded about LLMs, it's just some fucking maniacs shoveled out a bunch of useless bloatware featuring that technology, did not give me any chance to opt out, reorganized the entire economy around it, zeroed out gains made by green energy, and made it impossible to buy RAM
