Wow 👀 the #PorVida fans who made the trip... to OKC just broke out in a loud “Go Spurs Go!” chant that echoed through the arena. During a late timeout, Wembanyama and the team turned to acknowledge them. In all my years covering this team, I’ve never seen a moment like it. 🖤🤍show more

HEEEE.. STRUCK! HIM! OUT! The 7 Line Army has... been cheering together since 2012, and our official strikeout chant is all thanks to Mike “The King” Casiano. Mike has been celebrating strikeouts forever, and once our group started, his chant migrated throughout our crew as well.

Today he's a superstar who made it from scratch,... he went from patching his football boots to rebuilding the Football Academy where he started in Kwara under the same coach who believed in him to handle it. Now his parents live worry-free as he has paid off all the debts his father borrowed to train them in school and he did this from scratch. I ask again, “HOW BIG IS YOUR DREAM?”show more

Another example of Drake rewarding loyalty on ICEMAN. Russ... has consistently said that Drake is his favorite rapper. And on "ASTALAVISTA," Drake finally gives him his recognition: "And people are overly invested in what happens to Drake, but nobody invested like us / The way things are going up, I might start posting all of my publishing checks like Russ." Drake could finally relate to the level of hate and mischaracterization of someone like Russ, when he was experiencing it firsthand from all the PDF allegations and people wishing such ill will on those around him, even his family and child. From 2017 to 2020, Russ was arguably the most hated rapper. So much so that people were wishing that he had died instead of other rappers when they would pass away. This was a recurring thing. You can look up tweets from back then. Russ would talk about how much pain this caused him. Now, rappers like Smokepurpp (struggling to perform in front of 7 people), Lil Pump (relegated to 6ix9ine territory performing 2017 songs), and all of the other SoundCloud, face-tattooed, Xan-addicted rappers are struggling to have any of their albums stream as much as a Russ single. It's never over.show more

Yasiin Bey (fka Yasiin Bey) made a surprise appearance... at MIKE's Young World Festival Saturday night at Herbert Von King Park in Brooklyn. He came out following sets from SALIMATA, Niontay, ERISTHEPLANET, and MIKE's Band of the Century.⁠ ⁠ Bey's set was as a homecoming to Bed-Stuy.

He also performed "Auditorium" in full, along with a dance remix of "Umi Says," and led the crowd in a "Free Gaza" chant. See clips from his performance below.show more

The other night I was home alone and turned... the dryer on before I went to bed… there was a blockage of lint on the external line (I had even just cleaned it recently 🤯) and it started smoking, and the dog I rescued from the shelter alerted me at 2am and saved my house from catching on fire. As of today, he has had a cheeseburger everyday since in gratitude of his protection of our home. The person that had him before thought he was worthless, but to me Jack’s is priceless. ❤️🐶show more

😂 When meeting your favourite character gets a little... too overwhelming At an anime convention in Guangzhou, a guy went up to take a selfie with a Tifa cosplayer from Final Fantasy VII — and visibly started freaking out.

Grok 4.5 in Grok Build created an FPS game... in under an hour. The prompt was simple. I told it to write a game design document and pull free assets from the web. Then I had it create a TODO.md with implementation phases and run a loop to build out each phase. SpaceXAI and Cursor cooked here. This model is insane.show more
