Love this. So relatable, and so true: the crux of the issue is people's reluctance/refusal to change. Tom Scocca's story is harrowing.

Just want to say that in the glut of coverage regarding a certain odious ESPN story, I had no idea a long-dormant part of my brain would immediately and automatically append "—Norby!—" to every mention considering it's been, I don't know, 17 years?

Is William dressed as 90's/2000's Will?

I never beat my teenage gamer son at any game - I feel your pain. I am most amused by NBA2K24 programming a point guard to cry - brilliant!

This is great (although I still had the upper hand at FIFA against my 21-year old over the break, so I've still got it)! The older I get (I'm about the same age as you, Will) the more I realize that it takes hard work not to become a throw-the-controller-across-the-room person.

I actually beat him today with the Suns over the Cavs. Last second jumper by Durant!
