This is an incredible story. This American Life did a piece on this exact case. So interesting! Here’s the link: https://www.thisamericanlife.org/631/so-a-monkey-and-a-horse-walk-into-a-bar

Aw she’s so cute! Our dog is a rescue as well and had a bit of a rough past, although to what degree, we’re not sure. But it’s amazing how much dogs come around once you’ve earned their trust. So rewarding!

What a cutie! 😍

Wow this is really big news! I too was a SmugMug employee (for 5+ years!) and loved working there. This could be a big win for both teams. Wishing them both the best!

Words With Friends is definitely a fun one! While the design of that app is way too noisy, the game itself is pretty fun! I mean, who can argue with a knock off version of Scrabble? My favorite iOS game has to be Two Dots. It's a superbly designed …

My fiancée flew Southwest to Vegas for work only hours before this incident. After learning about it, she was very shaken by it. The details are harrowing. I’m such a nervous flyer that I can’t even fathom going through something like this. …

I was a big fan of the most recent Planet of the Apes movies. San Francisco was pretty heavily featured throughout. Another movie I sincerely enjoyed was San Andreas starring the Rock. It was a big, dumb, ridiculous blockbuster but I loved every …

A Pilot Wings remake (or even just a straight up port) for the Switch would be so awesome! I loved that game as a kid. I’ve never played Elite Dangerous but it looks cool. No Man’s Sky is a game I think about a lot but I find that I get bored by …

Haha yeah the Angels were also pretty low on my list of teams to follow before this year

When I first played Shadow of the Colossus for Playstation 2 back in 2007 or 2008, it was a revelation. I'd played open world games before, but this was the first I'd ever encountered that seemed to find the sweet spot between grandeur and …

NHL playoffs are definitely one of my favorites of any pro sport. I remember when the Blackhawks won their first Cup (of the recent era) and how exciting it was to be living in Chicago and watching every single game with everyone on the edge of …

I agree, transcendent players are one of the things that make sports so captivating. Every once in a while, someone comes along and breaks a sport, and it’s so fun to watch! Hopefully the Angels make it to the playoffs this year so Ohtani can …

While the comparison to Babe Ruth is obvious, he wasn’t the last to excel as a two way player. As pointed out in this article by Mike Duncan, there were also black and Latino players who excelled on both sides of the plate in the Negro Leagues …

Over the last couple of seasons, Shohei Ohtani has dominated the Japanese professional league on both sides of plate, where he was arguably the best hitter AND the best pitcher over that stretch. As of today, he's only 23 years old, throws 100 mph, …

I like the update for the purposes of the show, but if ignoring this context, the ridiculous name, and judging the logo only on its merits, (independent of the show) it’s just ok. There is one thing that’s particularly clever about it: the …

I agree! Monopoly isn’t that fun! It’s kind of fun at first but after not too long it starts to feel like a slog, especially if you’re not rich. Funny how that works 🤔 Another game I’m not that into: Apples to Apples. I enjoy this format of game …

This is a great observation. Regardless of one’s political leanings, it’s certainly noteworthy that the president seems to react directly to sentiments expressed on cable news and turn it into actual policy.

Defnitely agree about Zelda games. Zelda: A Link to the Past for Super Nintendo is one of my favorite games ever and arguably the best in the series (although Breath of the Wild was incredible). Also I think Wii Sports is one of the most fun …

After a couple close calls with cars out on the road, I’ve grown wary of outdoor riding (unless on super safe routes). But I would also get so bored on indoor rides. It was a perfect storm that stopped me from biking for the last couple years. This …

Agree! I would’ve definitely watched another 30 minutes.

Really want to see this! Heard great things.

HBO’s new series, Barry, starring Bill Hader, is a dark comedy about a hitman who decides to take up acting. It premiered last weekend and I really enjoyed the first episode! I’ve always liked Bill Hader on SNL but never realized how good of an …

It's funny because looking back on this, I actually like it better not aligned. Not only does it look more like a box, as you mentioned, but something about that little hiccup in the alignment actually gives it a little more character.

Funny becuase I'm actually doing a bracket for the first time ever and since I don't follow college ball or know who to pick, I just copied Obama's bracket. Was looking good for a minute there, but we're now in the Sweet 16 and I'm not doing so …

I just started using Zwift and it is really fun! Still tying to dial in my setup and make it comfortable, and honestly it's been several years since I've been in good shape, so it's taking me a while to ramp up in terms of logging mileage. But I'm …
