Patrick Willis talks about the severe pain in his feet that caused him to retire at 29 years old: “I would say 'I don’t know how much longer I have to play this game', I would say it to my family, to my teammates. I would say it for years. I was saying it probably after my third year— where I was more vocal about it. That’s how bad it was hurting. It was to the point where I had to put numbing cream on my on my big toes just to go out and have walkthroughs. I used to dread walkthroughs. I did not want to get on these feet.” This is a pretty long clip, but I strongly recommend listening to it so you can understand what PWilly went through and why he retired after 8 seasons 🎥: Bussin' With The Boys | Will Compton

The Lyrics of Imperfect Mew : Every moment in the song is based on a true story. 🗣️: Can you share some of it with us? Mew : Looking at the lyrics, the first verse starts from the moment of waking up. I wrote it when we were on a cruise, we went to the Caribbean together. The image of sunlight shining on his face, that messy, bedhead look right after waking up... just how incredibly cute he was 😆 Mew : The next verse talks about things we’ve experienced together, such as when we went traveling and missed a train. When we look back on it now, it’s actually funny. Or when it suddenly started raining and we didn’t have an umbrella, so we had to take off a shirt and cover ourselves. In those moments, the imperfection somehow became perfect for us. 🗣️: So this is all based on a true story? Mew: All of it is real. 🗣️: Not a scene from a series? 😂 Mew: No, it really happened. The train incident happened in Munich. Usually, he’s the one who checks the schedule. Like, where to go, which platform and what time. But that day, it looked like he read it wrong, so we rushed because we thought we were going to miss it. But actually, he didn’t read it wrong, the train changed platforms. We had to go to another one. It was funny. No one was at fault… the platform was the one that was wrong 😂 Mew : When I told him which moments behind the song, he related to it so much. He listens to it every night now. He probably knows the lyrics better than I do 😂 Mew : Usually when I write a song, I let him listen to it first. He relates to this one so deeply that he especially loves it.

This needs to be talked about. In Kate’s newest TikTok, she talks about how Liam encouraged her to do social media, how she wanted to give up and he wouldn’t let her. Liam actively tried to stay off of social media and Kate wouldn’t allow him to, forcing him to be in her videos for the attention it gave her. Liam also mentioned that his team tried to push the TikTok wave onto him, but that he just didn’t want to do it. He openly spoke about how this caused tension. Kate then goes on to talk about how she took “about 8 months” off. She didn’t take an actual break. All she did was post less than she does now. Right after Liam passed away, Kate admitted that she deleted social media for about THREE DAYS. She said that she was “ashamed” because of how quickly she redownloaded TikTok. Her “8 month break” wasn’t an actual break; it was her posting ONLY Liam-related TikToks that centered around HER — not Liam himself. She never once spoke up in his defense, she never once tried to keep his legacy alive. That was just when she started making up lies after lies, contradicting herself, and being unable to keep track of her previous stories that she had already told. She immediately knew that she had to do something to keep her relevance and to keep her name attached to Liam’s. If she had taken a proper, REAL break, her money would’ve taken a big dip and she would’ve had to fly economy more than just once (oh no!). Not even a year after Liam died, Kate showed that she was out partying and drinking constantly, she was posting with several different guys every night. And only when she got called out for it is when she would put up another self-centered, Liam themed video as a way to manipulate the public. #JusticeForLiam #StopExploitingLiam #ExposeKateCassidy

Lady Gaga spoke about her grandmother, Angelina Calderone Germanotta, who passed away earlier this month, before dedicating “Joanne” to her during Night 3 of the MAYHEM Ball in Barcelona: “My grandmother passed away. But she actually passed about a week ago, and I didn’t say anything ’cause I just wanted to keep it private with my family. But it became more public today. It’s hard when these big changes happen in your life and they’re not private, when family is such a private thing. But I wrote an album many years ago for my family called Joanne. My grandmother that passed away — her daughter passed away when she was very young, and her daughter’s name was Joanne. That’s who the album was about, that’s who the song is about. Needless to say, that my grandmother’s passing, as well as my other grandmother’s passing too — this was very big for our family. But I was thinking about how strong she was, and what a hard, hard thing that she endured, and all the strength that she gave to our whole family, and the strength that she taught me. So last week I decided to play “Joanne” during the show, and I didn’t know that she was gonna pass away. It was just a coincidence. But when it happened, it felt like she was talking to me. So, I thought since some people now know that my grandma passed, I’d like to just share this moment with you, and I would like to sing “Joanne” for my grandma — my father’s mother.” 🎥: notolsennchris/TikTok

Latest J.Crew campaign looks like their 90s catalogues mashed with a teen streaming show like Outer Banks or TSITP The thing I keep wondering about them is how they’ve leaned on the prep catalogue aesthetic of eras past. Is this the key to growth? Do American shoppers today want northeast bubble culture enough for it to drive commercial success? A&F has notably not clung to their 90s/00s identity, transitioning into a world of faux-tree camo, sporty and rich lookalikes, and sweat sets. This paid off American Eagle has been sort of saved by Aerie, which succeeded by positioning as Gen-Z Victoria’s Secret (IMO) Gap on the flip side is seeing a turnaround of its own, returning to their dance-ad roots — but only emotionally, as their distinctly TikTok generation feel is not the Gap aesthetic of the 90s. (This thanks to former Aritzia CMO and former Yzy Gap creative lead) While J.Crew’s prep catalog aesthetic revival may reinforce brand heritage —something the brands above haven’t been precious with — I can’t help but wonder if what they’re reaching for still exists

This amazing video shows the incredible oral skills of a petite Indian teen cutie. India is fast becoming a nation of hot teen smoking addicts, and this girl is an absolute GOAT. She lights up her bidi (Indian cigarette), takes a massive triple drag, arches her lovely mouth, and immediately sends a series of perfect rings our way. Then she talks for about twenty seconds but after that, the true magic happens. She starts doing massive inhales in quick succession, starting off with a huge quadruple drag. And every time she blows massive plumes of smoke and perfect rings into our faces. In total she does eight drags is seventy seconds; she scorches her lungs so intensely that she needs to grab hold of her chest towards the end. Oh man, she must be feeling a humongous nicotine rush inside that cute little head of hers. And just look at the way her amazing lips are moving around. When you look how wide she's able to open up, it makes you wonder... I mean, it's almost a perfect girth... You simply can't imagine that smoking and blowing rings is the only fun she's been having with that gorgeous mouth. #smoking #smokingfetish #sexysmoker #sexysmoking #cigarette #girlsmoke #smokingwoman #smokinggirl #smokingbabe #smokingbeauty #cig #chainsmoker #heavysmoker #girlswhosmokecigarette #chainsmoking #girlswhosmoke #smokingmodel #smokinghot #smoker #smokergirl #cigarette #addicted #smokingaddiction #lightingup #inhale #deepinhale #exhale #smokerings #blowingsmoke #blowingrings #oralskills #bidi #teensmoking #teensmoker #smokingteen #cutegirl #coolgirl #hotgirl #sexygirl #indiangirl #desi #desigirl #indiansmoker #desismoker

Okay, so explain to me how this man remembers my legal name after only *two* interactions where he actually learned it. 😆 One was a year ago when my friends ordered my first Bohen Cameo, and the second was when he asked my real name in Detroit. Yet somehow, after the request was made out to "Wolf Feller"... he still starts the video with "Melanie." Sir, what kind of memory is that? 🤣 And he called me "darling" again. 😅 Why is that my favorite term of endearment when it comes from him? I don't know, but it is. 😂 Anyway, my best friend Laura got me another Cameo from Bohen for my birthday. Then he proceeds to go on what can only be described as an extremely focused yet completely chaotic journey about... birth-day time travel. 🤣 I genuinely think he confused himself for a second because I definitely got lost somewhere along the way. According to Laura, he also mostly ignored the actual request this time around, so I may just have to ask him about Noah or Roy in person. I'm honestly not sure if he rambled enough to forget the request halfway through or if he just wasn't feeling those characters. 🤔 He calls himself a lunatic, and... you know what? He might be a little. But in the best possible way. 🫶🏻 Thank you, Laura, for such a thoughtful birthday gift, and thank you, Bohen , for another entertaining Cameo . ❤️ #ianbohen #Cameo #birthday #timetravel #chaos

Trying to catch up on the entire interview with Heart Radio but absolutely LOVING the segment of him gushing about Catherine and the children❤️ His entire demeanor and body is very relaxed when he talks about them and you can tell he cherishes and adores them to pieces👌🏽 I love him imitating Catherine asking "Where is my husband?"😚 Of Course he is proud of Catherine, what husband would not be if she were his wife? I LOVE how warm his deep tone is when he speaks of his wife, one can feel there is a lot of love, respect and affection there, especially he talks about her passion for her work, her reading her research in their bedroom and how he was so proud as a husband to watch her shine in Italy ❤️ I especially love that he mentioned how stunning she is and looks. He seldomly talks about her physical appearance but he is very conscious that he married a very beautiful woman and as I watched her so radiant, so incredibly graceful and gorgeous in Italy, I was thinking William must be feeling like a King right now at seeing his beautiful wife glow out there especially after her health journey to get there❤️‍🩹 I laughed at him replying to Holden that "he did not even know Catherine spoke Italian and that she must have dusted it off from somewhere"😅😂 Good girl, she keeps some tricks still hidden and keeps her husband surprised🤭 Finally the most beautiful part is thim saying how " she is an amazing mother and wife and that they could not cope as a family without her and also him wanting to make sure she is alright before she gets back to a grueling international traveling schedule"❤️‍🩹🥹 Indeniably, this man adores his wife and the family they have created and does not take them for granted. On the contrary, he prioritises them, provides for them and protects them as a Good husband should do. In that Catherine lucked out too with William, not because he is the Wealthy Heir, because Diana married the Wealthy Heir too and we saw the result.. No Catherine lucked out because she truly fell in love and married a good man who loves her too, who adores her, respects her and to whom she and her children are the centre of the world. That is one of the greatest blessing in life❤️

The number of people in red hats that visit my timeline to be dicks, are often disparaging to Europe. That’s OK because Europe has public toilets older than America and let’s face it, when it comes to art culture and architecture, there really is no comparison, but we’re fine with that. America is a young country and all teenagers can be a little boisterous and do stupid things. It has to be said though, this latest prank of going scorched earth on Representative Democracy really takes the biscuit. It really is often wiser to take advice from your elders, you know, the guys who have lived a little, experienced a holocaust and fascist dictators, seen revolution up close and personal. Countries that have gone through the rise and fall of empire. As with all drunken teenagers you never seem to listen, preferring instead to throw your weight around believing you are the big I am. From one friend to another we can see where this is going, because we’ve lived it and it’s not going to end well. All this ‘my cock is bigger than yours’ is really silly. It really is not about how big it is, it’s what you do with it that matters. Yet you do things like sending your cock to Greenland to look every bit a big cock. As with all bullies, there are always bigger and smarter bullies than you. And Lord knows you are being played by one in the Kremlin. Even more worrying, while you’re doing the Hokey Cokey with tariffs wiping trillions from the stock market, the real danger already owns almost a trillion dollars of your treasure notes and operates a global trade surplus of almost a trillion dollars. They’ve built infrastructure in key locations where rare minerals exist, built direct trading routes to the biggest consumer market in the world and done it all without a military base in any of those nations. Who’s the idiot now? They are a decade ahead of you on infrastructure and nuclear power. Oh and did I mention probably have the most educated population on the planet. They’re simply waiting for the dollar to lose its position as the world’s reserve currency. Then you’re toast and you’ll have no friends to help you out. Like all errant teenagers you spend more than you earn and are now running a debt to GDP ratio of 123.1% with a national debt of $36 trillion, which you want to raise to $40 trillion to hand tax breaks to those that bought you the White House. Based on that fiscal management, you should be grounded for a decade. The bond markets and fund managers are loyal to no man. They will drop you at the drop of a hat. Investors have already started fleeing back to London. China will be waiting to fill the gap, as they are now you trashed USAID. So it’s time to stop being an ass and recognise that as the Talking Heads said, ‘You’re on a road to nowhere’. Don’t make us have to tell you we told you so. You can do things better if you just learn to read the room. Which is tricky I know when 21% of your population is illiterate and your president commits crimes against the English language every day. 🎥TikTok -

The number of people in red hats that visit my timeline to be dicks, are often disparaging to Europe. That’s OK because Europe has public toilets older than America and let’s face it, when it comes to art culture and architecture, there really is no comparison, but we’re fine with that. America is a young country and all teenagers can be a little boisterous and do stupid things. It has to be said though, this latest prank of going scorched earth on Representative Democracy really takes the biscuit. It really is often wiser to take advice from your elders, you know, the guys who have lived a little, experienced a holocaust and fascist dictators, seen revolution up close and personal. Countries that have gone through the rise and fall of empire. As with all drunken teenagers you never seem to listen, preferring instead to throw your weight around believing you are the big I am. From one friend to another we can see where this is going, because we’ve lived it and it’s not going to end well. All this ‘my cock is bigger than yours’ is really silly.

In this sea of uncertainty and confusion surrounding Trump’s new world order, I feel sympathy for the millions of Americans that did not vote for this. It must be like you are living in a never ending nightmare. I can’t imagine for a moment what it must feel like to be at the mercy of a narcissistic sociopath, not knowing what disastrous thing he will do next. It is evident having listened to JD Vance in Munich, he is not just trying to subjugate America, he is trying to subjugate the world. This is a man who wasn’t joking when he said ‘We love the poorly educated’ he meant it. According to available data, approximately 43 million Americans are considered functionally illiterate, meaning they struggle significantly with reading and writing skills to the point of not being able to understand basic texts or complete simple forms. 54% of adults have a literacy below sixth-grade level. American education has failed half the population and that’s a blight on the houses of ALL politicians. America it seems, has been living in denial for far too long and a monster has come along as the pied piper and infected the minds of around 30% of voting age Americans. As a result of people who should know better sitting it out, 30% has been enough to have tyranny come knocking. Trump has decided not just to test the limits of his domestic power, he’s testing the limits of his global power too. Domestically, his own party is terrified and cowering silently in a corner. I am so angry that Democrats allowed this to happen. They left it too late to provide a compelling argument for a better tomorrow. The ‘vote for us because the other guy is a fascist’ was stupid, it was never going to work, but they marched on believing that talking to each other and receiving self congratulation would win the election. I want you to stop and think about this for a moment. The Democrat campaign didn’t just lose, it handed power to a convicted criminal. It handed a criminal the White House, Congress and The Senate and just as a bonus cherry on top, it handed him the popular vote too. Now that’s what you call f*cking losing. Their big response? Chuck Schumer dad dancing, chanting ‘We will win. We will win’ It’s like a Monty Python comedy sketch. Then I see Dem activists saying it’s the fault of those who sat it out. We warned them they didn’t listen. How f*cking arrogant can you get? I was one of you and I FAILED, because I went along with the rage tweeting and the delusion that a tweet-storm could deliver a win. Jesus WE GOT IT COMPLETE LY WRONG and until we own that, nothing will change. If they get the budget through using reconciliation American families will be crushed. I’ve said it and I’ll say it again, until a leader appears that the American people can believe in, Trump will have his foot on our neck. So decide who it is and LET’S F*CKING GO. Otherwise it’s game over. Right now, Wun Dum Fuc literally stands on the precipice of shattering every global alliance, leaving America completely isolated in a world where China is just biding its time. At this point, American allies would not piss on them if they were on fire, that’s how bad it is and I am witnessing it first hand in Europe. Guys it BAD, really bad. I believe there is going to come a moment when the 25th Amendment is required, but even then, I believe Vance would just pick up the baton and march on. I stumbled on this very articulate young man who perfectly articulates just how desperate the situation is right now. He is referring to Trump’s social media post in which he used a quote attributed to the Emperor Napoleon “He who saves his country does not violate any laws”. Take a listen. 🎥 TikTok - @jjgreen1313

the way seungmin talks about music and performing 💞 🐶: when i am not prepared or haven't practiced hard enough, the stress level of making a mistake is very high. so before i leave for a concert overseas, i train to be 100% ready. 🐶: there's always pressure, and i know my role is big. i try to prepare through continuous practice and by believing in myself. 🐶: i try to sleep regularly during the tour. there is a limit to the human body, so when i'm tired, my throat closes up or the sound doesn't come out right. i invest a lot in sleep during the tour so that i can fully recover my body and mind to perform at my best in front of the audience. i thought i wouldn't be able to recover if i fall apart. so instead of falling apart and being down, i didn't give myself a choice but forced myself to practice more or train harder. i was very anxious about going up to perform. even after rehearsing with the members, i stayed afterward. 🐶: i know this opportunity is not to be taken for granted and should be held with responsibility. with so many people coming to our concert, i want to give every fan at the concert satisfaction when they go home. i tried my best to hold up my end of the performance. 🐶: performing on a huge stage, like at an outdoor festival with the crowd bouncing to our music and their hands up, is the image of a singer that i have dreamt about. throughout our stadium tour, there were overlapping scenes. it's so similar to what i've been dreaming of. 🐶: when i'm on stage with the members, i realize how happy and sincere i am about this job that i have. 🐶: ever since i was young, i could feel the strength of music as being powerful, and its presence must live on. i want to preserve music and believe it's my role to immerse people in it. 🐶: music is my life.

We have Jalen Rose on record saying he purposely injured Kobe Bryant. “I didn’t want him to get injured, i just wanted him to get hurt” “Times were different, you gotta do what you gotta do to try to win the series, I was thinking he’d probably miss the entire series” Think about that! A 21 year old was so great that he put fear into the opposing team. They felt they could win if they took Kobe out the series. Laker trainer said, his ankle was almost the size of a volleyball! And somehow Kobe managed to return game 5 and step up big in OT once Shaq fouled out. MythNix the fake data guy, somehow can’t grasp how an ankle injury like this can effect your gameplay, especially your averages. Why? He only looks at stat sheets. He probably didn’t even know Kobe got hurt 😂 Has never played basketball at a high level so there is no way he can understand it, no matter how much data he looks at. This is why no one takes these people seriously. They’re dishonest. In sports, data isn’t enough by itself. You have to watch the games and understand the context. When dealing with Data, it’s very easy to manipulate it to fit the story you want to tell. We call this confirmation Bias. MythNix is the CONFIRMATION BIAS KING👑 🎥 👇👇👇

Jim Jarmusch on how he got the idea to make "Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai" (1999): "It really came about from wanting to work with Forest Whitaker, who I met when I was going to the Super-8 lab when I was working on 'Year of the Horse' (1997), or maybe on the video. I ran into him a couple of times and we would just start talking and he said to me the first time, "Hey, if you ever think of anything for me, let me know, I'd love to work with you." I couldn't get him out of my head, certain qualities that he has and it was more from talking to him as a person than his work. I was very, very moved by his portrayal of Charlie Parker in 'Bird' (1988). I thought it was a beautiful performance, although I'm a big be-bop fan and I did not like the movie in terms of its slant on depicting the life of Bird - how can you make a film about Bird in which Miles Davis is never even mentioned? There were a lot of things really odd to me about it. Miles' estate probably refused to let him use his name. With good reason. They usually use this very soft, gentle, poignant side of Forest and he gets cast as the loveable soft guy. And I'm really attracted to that quality, but there is a whole other side to him, just physically, his presence, there's more there than that and I wanted to get both of those things in a character. So I started thinking how can I do that? He should be a warrior and I thought he should be a hitman, that sort of cliché and then the samurai thing came to me because in eastern-culture warriors, there is a whole spiritual side to their training. If you look at the Shaolin monks in China, they're martial arts experts, but they are priests; they are enlightened religious teachers, but the physical side is also completely intertwined. So that gave me the idea to give him some depth. Then the book 'Hugga Kurai', because it's a text from the 1750s written by an old samurai as a guide to samurai life and philosophy. It contains so many things, minor, mundane details about the food you eat, or how your house is built, how often you clean your armour, to incredibly deep Zen philosophy, and it's all in this book and it jumps from one to the next. Then I just started collecting disparate ideas; I was interested in the decline of organised crime families in New York because I used to live right across from the Gambino family social club in Little Italy, and in the late 70s and early 80s when they were unravelling, and I would always see them on the street - John Gotti and Sammy 'The Bull' Gravano and Neil Belacroche and all those wise guys. So I collected some ideas about them, and the idea of pigeons came from the fact that on the roof behind me, there was an old Italian guy who had a pigeon coop for years. He died just before we started filming actually, and his birds were moved away, but I used to watch him fly his birds a lot and there was something very beautiful in that movement. Sometimes I'd just look out the window on a Saturday morning and see them moving, and the light would shift and they would go from black to white to black to white to black to white, and that was a detail. I would just collect and collect, and then I sat down and tried to weave all these disparate things into something." ("Jim Jarmusch - part three", The Guardian, 2000) P.S: On this day, 27 years ago, "Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai" (1999) premiered at the Cannes Film Festival, France.

500k people are confiding in an AI alien—and it's on track to generate $4m this year. It’s called a Tolan: an animated AI character that can talk to you like your best friend. The company behind it, Portola, has 4x’d their ARR in the last month from viral growth on TikTok and Instagram. Tolan isn’t just a hyper-growth startup—they’re also exploring AI as a completely new creative tool, and storytelling medium. Their goal is to help their users go from overwhelmed to grounded, and it’s working. Today, on AI & I, I sit down with two of the minds behind Tolans: My good friend Quinten Farmer, Portola’s cofounder and CEO, and Eliot Peper, their head of story and a best-selling science fiction novelist. We get into: - How to build AI personalities users love. During user onboarding, the team gathers information—through a light-touch personality quiz—and then uses frameworks like the Big Five and Myers-Briggs to shape a Tolan that mirrors the user; like an older sibling might. The aim is to create someone who feels familiar enough to be safe, but different enough to be interesting. - Why AI characters are “improv actors”. Rather than scripting detailed prompts, the team trains Tolans to improvise—inspired by Keith Johnstone’s book Impro, where he talks about building strong narratives through free association and recombination. - How “memory” is critical to developing compelling characters. Tolans develop their personalities through “situations”: small narrative setups (a memory, a joke, an embarrassing moment) the Tolan reacts to, remembers, and gradually weaves into its character; accumulating into something that feels like a real lived experience. - Why response time is everything for voice AI interactions. A Tolan has at most two seconds to curate the right context about a user and deliver a reply that feels genuine—the team has found that even half a second slower can break the user’s immersive interaction with the AI. - The future of AI as a totally new creative medium. New technologies bring about new formats and new mediums. AI creates the opportunity for creatives to tell completely new kinds of stories—if they’re brave enough to try it. - “White mirror” technologies that make you feel more like yourself. Amid concerns that tech drives polarization and isolation, Tolan offers a counterexample: a tool designed to make the best of what humanity knows about being a flourishing individual available on demand. The company’s north star is helping users go from feeling overwhelmed to feeling grounded. This is a must-watch for anyone exploring AI as a creative medium—or curious about the future of human-AI relationships. Watch below! Timestamps: 1. Introduction: 00:01:30 2.

These were the words of Senator Blumenthal earlier yesterday and it stands as testament to the total disdain Trump holds for Congress. He is intoxicated with power and appears to have a blatant and reckless disregard for the safety of Americans in the region and for military personnel that have no choice but to follow the orders of a convicted criminal. The big problem now is that he has rolled the dice on something that could spiral out of control very quickly. Once again arrogance has blinded him to the real threat American interests in the region and around the world. He has chosen to attack a regime that had no problem killing tens of thousands of its own people when threatened. It holds a formidable arsenal of weapons that could be used against his carrier strike group. It’s a nation where suicide bombers are happy to become martyrs to kill their enemy. Has Trump learned nothing about how wars have changed, Iran needs to get lucky just once to cause chaos. He’s lit the fuse on potential catastrophic retaliation for yet another made for TV moment.

That’s no premise on which to go to war without making clear justification for preemptive strikes, it’s speaks to his malignant narcissistic illness for which others may well pay a very heavy price. 🎥 TikTok -
