Glyphs or no glyphs??? That is the question…

the news vol.021 from awhile back

Recent print deliveries from Are.na, McSweeney’s, A24, and Paris Review.

Some really interesting stuff out today. Hoping to get through a handful of these and get a real post up about what’s really worth checking out.

Saw the Kraken were up 2-0 so I decided to support the local team and throw the game on… within two minutes of turning it on it’s 2-2…

I still think about The Awl a lot.

Anyone read ESPN the Magazine back in the day and remember what the back page was called every issue..? I remember it being something like “:01 second” or “final second” or something like that and it was maybe a humorous, illustrated image related to sports…? But I can’t find anything online…

Finally remembered to switch Substack from receiving via app to e-mail. And I’ve added Curated and ConvertKit as possibilities of where to move my newsletter (alongside Buttondown, which is still my preferred, but pricier for what I want to do…)

It’s honestly really cool to see the blink guys back together on the Coachella stream.

Bulls are in a rock fight right now in Miami, currently up one, 68-67, entering the 4th quarter.

Feeling pretty good about the Bulls chances against the Heat tonight. Bulls swept them in the regular season and the Heat can’t hurt the Bulls downlow and on the boards.

New music I’m checking out today.

It is Proven! 😝

LaVine with 17pts in the third quarter (26 total so far) to cut the lead to 9 entering the fourth quarter… there’s a chance…

If you want to know how I’m feeling about the Bulls after one half tonight — I just ran to the grocery store for a 12-pack of Rainier during halftime…

The Raptors are just getting way too much, way too easily right now while the Bulls have been settling for mediocre shots. If it continues at this pace, we are in trouble. And I’m going to need more than just this Negroni.

As I’ve been trying to move away from Substack, I started playing around with Buttondown. Currently just using it to summarize posts from my blog, but I’ve got some other ideas as well, maybe…

Planning to live blog the Bulls game tonight, just not sure what to use… my blog (like I used to…), Kinopio, or something like Discord/Wavelength…

Nevermind… it’s $30/mo just to have multiple newsletters on Buttondown… 😩

I’m this close to moving back to Buttondown from Substack, but I really don’t love the idea of paying $10/mo for 80% of the functionality I’ve come to rely on with Substack…

Things like Notes and Threads make me not want to use Substack anymore…

I’ve slightly changed my internal thinking about how I use my various places on the web and so far I’m super happy with it and have felt the urge to actually post, blog, and link more. The eternal question is how long that urge sticks…

Sounds like Bob Odenkirk might show up in S2 of The Bear.

Updated The Independent Variable so it matches and aligns a bit better with foofaraw.

Little zine shop set-up

It’s pretty amazing how easy it is to set-up Stripe to sell stuff. Being able to embed something like this on my site is incredible.

Quality isn’t quite where I wanted to be, especially considering it ended up costing more than I planned. Still super satisfying to have a little zine I made in my hand. Three more left. If ordered after 12:00 tomorrow it’ll go out Monday when I’m back from Portland.

[[Rodrygo]] missed Brazil’s opening PK;
[[Casemiro]] made the second;

[[Marquinhos]] missed the fourth - and final - with Croatia making all four of theirs.

This review may contain spoilers. I thought this was absolutely terrific. Angela Bassett gave an Oscar-worthy performance and given the pivot that must have been made given the tragic death of Chadwick, the story felt seamless to me. The tributes they paid were touching and emotional, the building up of Shuri and Riri were great alongside the stalwarts of Okoye and Nakia (played by Lupita who was terrific and stunning as well).…

The only thing this movie needed less of was white people and Marvel tie-ins. I really enjoyed the Namor/Aztec background story they created for the film and Huerta played Namor terrifically, as one of the better Marvel villains, better than Killmonger even?

The last battle did seem to have some stilted timing things going on and there were a couple odd character decisions in the middle, but I’ll forgive them for that. 

It sucks that it takes having to be Marvel to get an epic story of Afro-futurism and Aztec-futurism (is that a thing?) made in Hollywood because it’s really just the Marvel aspects holding this film back.

[[Bulls Win!]] @ Bucks
8-10
COBY!!!

Missed posting after Monday’s win vs Celtics.

• Fun game that came down to the wire. First win for the Bulls this season in a close, clutch game 0-7 previously.
• Had moments where there was actually defensive effort.
• Fell in love with the three ball, which almost killed them. Think their final 8 shots were threes and all misses until [[Coby]] (4/7 from 3) hit one to tie, and then another on the next possession to take the lead, and then [[Vooch]] hit the nail in the coffin from deep as the shot clock dwindled.
• All starts but Ayo hit double digits, with Coby and JaVonte reaching that mark as well and [[DeMar]] leading with a 36/4/8 line.

[[Bulls Lose]] vs Magic
6-10

Starting to feel like they will never win again.
Only watched the first half tonight.
Honestly, didn’t hate how they played tonight; [[LaVine]] just couldn’t get anything going (1/14)… even with [[DeMar]] going for another 40 piece they couldn’t overcome that poor shooting.
Continue to like how [[Ayo]] and [[PatWil]] are playing. I think the high end goal should be for them to combine for ~30 — they went for 13 and 12, respectively, tonight.

They host Boston on Monday…

Bulls Suck

[[Bulls Lose]] Vs Nuggets
6-8

Tough night for the Bulls yesterday. Only watched the first half, but the Nuggets are just a much better team and Bulls couldn’t really get anything going on either end.

• [[DeMar]] has been struggling to get things going after a fast start–very well could be age a bit starting to show.
• [[PatWil]] and [[Ayo]] continue to have moments and progress.
• Defense continues to be the Achilles heel + lack of real PG in the starting line-up. Both of those things get solved if/when [[Lonzo]] ever returns (be it at full strength)…
  • Not that it will make the Bulls a real contender either way.

[[Bulls Win!]]

Only got bits and pieces of this one…
Not the best game for the Bulls, but they got the win and that’s all that matters.
6 guys in double-digits, none over 17, and DeMar and Ayo only had 9 and 8, respectively.

[[JaVonte]] led the team with 17pts followed by [[PatWil]] with 16.

[[Bulls Lose]]

@mintie and the 76ers are now my worst enemies.

If you erase Q1, I was overall happy with the way the Bulls played. Ultimately, Philly has Embiid and that’s all that matters, especially when the Bulls get stagnant in Q4. Bench didn’t show up much today either given [[Ayo]] and [[Drummond]] being out.

3-4

[[Bulls Lose]] …

Missed the first half…

No [[LaVine]] tonight and disappointing shooting night for [[Vooch]]. [[DeMar]] came through again with 33 and [[Coby]] dropped in 19 along with a strong perf from the Dungeons and Dragon duo off the bench.
Despite the Bulls winning major categories: bench points, fast break points, second chance points - it wasn’t enough to win as Spurs edged them out in 3pt shooting.

3-3

[[DeMar]] DeRozan becomes 50th player to score 20,000 points

Another [[Bulls Win!]]

Shotmaking and ball movement was working on a whole different level.
Slower game for [[DeMar]] , but [[LaVine]] was firing on all levels and I think we had 7 guys in double digits, including [[PatWil]]!

3-2

The late Hollywood heartthrob turned salad-dressing entrepreneur left behind a billion-dollar food empire and very, very specific instructions for his estate. But even the best laid plans can go awry when there’s money on the line.

The Bulls stormed back from a big early deficit and flipped the contest into a 120-102 blowout victory over the Celtics.

Andor, one of the best reviewed and most ambitious Lucasfilm projects in years, is also one of its least watched. But as Disney+ looks to expand the Star Wars audience, there’s more to success than just ratings.

[[Bulls Win!]]
Huge comeback - note to come

Welcome to the world, from your friends at Gawké

Kathleen Kennedy’s stewardship of the movie franchise continues to baffle as a key right-hand exits and a new film, perhaps the one in development with Damon Lindelof, isn’t expected until at least 2025, six years after ‘Rise of Skywalker.’ With Marvel churning out multiple movies every year, such a massive pause is borderline corporate negligence.

Massive cost-cutting is only the first of the palliatives planned for Musk’s privately-owned Twitter. Plus, the inside conversation on Wall Street about Netflix’s stock rebound and Larry Fink’s Marshall Plan.

Chicago was missing Lonzo Ball, while Cleveland was without Darius Garland. It won’t get any easier: the Bulls face the Boston Celtics next.

Martin McDonagh, the man behind ‘In Bruges,’ ‘Seven Psychopaths,’ and ‘The Banshees of Inisherin,’ thinks he might be mellowing out.

[[Bulls Lose]]
Rough game… [[Cavs]] couldn’t miss a shot, which wasn’t helped by the Bulls low energy on D. No Garland for CLE either.
I actually liked the approach to start, with [[LaVine]] running the show a bit and getting [[Vooch]] some early and easy looks. But it was all down hill from there.
Worst games of the season for [[DeMar]] and [[Ayo]] . And we don’t even need to talk about [[PatWil]] …
But when CLE shoots 60% from three with no corner threes, it’s going to be a rough night…

Not expecting better results Monday vs Boston…

News and notes on the industry’s inside conversation: a check-in on the Tapper experiment, Murdoch curiosities, and Semafor’s launch.

After a yearlong humbling on Wall Street, Reed Hastings and Ted Sarandos’ victory-lap earnings call was both offensive and defensive—an F-U to the haters who cast doubt on the company’s ability to remain disruptive. Some arguments landed more solidly than others.

[[Bulls Lose]]
No LaVine again and obviously no Lonzo… but bad defense and bad ball movement in the 4th along with an over reliance on [[DeMar]].
Solid night from [[Vooch]] 24 next to DeMar’s 32, but basically no production from anyone else.
Have actually been pretty impressed with [[Coby]] ’s improved decision making and learning to pick his spots off the bench to add in 10pts.

Russia, which sees itself as an unjustly deposed military superpower reclaiming its rightful place on the world stage, views Iran as a small regional power that can be used as it sees fit. Ironic, then, that Russia has turned to a junior partner for basic weapons as it runs out of its own.

A new three-part Netflix docuseries, Eat the Rich: The GameStop Saga, captures the essence of how the collective action of retail investors, relying largely on Reddit posts and their own desire to “stick it to the man,” nuked Melvin Capital. Bob Sloan, a star of the film, explains what the industry has learned ever since.

The humble email newsletter, which became a star in its own right, appears headed back to earth.

Netflix naysayers suggest that the forthcoming ad-supported tier will cheapen the brand, lead subscribers to downgrade, and lower the ARPU. But it’s actually an opportunity for the company to accelerate its pivot to its own O&O sitcoms, procedurals, and other content that its users already crave and its future ad partners lust over.

Look beyond the print question

A crackdown in August on voter fraud announced by Gov. Ron DeSantis seems to have ensnared former felons who were puzzled that they were accused of violating voting laws.

Each player on this season’s Bulls roster carries questions only the upcoming 82-game ride will answer.

News and notes and underground rumblings on the far- and center-right, from Kanye buying Parler to the Tucker Carlsonization of McCarthy’s G.O.P.

Let’s go! [[Bulls Win!]]

No [[Lonzo]] - out for a couple months. No [[LaVine]] - out for who knows how long… starting to feel like the knee is worse than they are letting on… So [[Ayo]] and [[Caruso]] get the start.

Slow start for the Bulls, but they managed to keep it pretty close throughout the first half (after some really poor shooting) while being saved by [[Dragic]] being able to knock down some threes.
In Q3, [[DeMar]] went absolutely crazy, which the Heat could never really recover from. Ended up with 37pts and 9asts plus 2/3 from 3!
Shot wasn’t falling for [[Vooch]] , but he rebounded especially well (17) and played some really solid D on Bam, notching in 3 blocks.
Big surprise of the night was [[Ayo]] , who was 3/6 from 3 and went for 17/6/4 as the starting PG. He played aggressive all night, which was great to see. If he adds some real playmaking to his game he can be something.

If ever healthy, the “Bench Mob” could be back in Chicago. If you slide [[JaVonte]] In as the starting 4 to give that group some energy, you could have:
PG: [[Dragic]]
SG: [[Ayo]]
SF: [[Caruso]]
PF: [[PatWil]]
C: [[Drummond]]
The Dragic/Drummond combo is already humming and would give PatWil an oppt to play away from DeMar/LaVine so he can be more aggressive. Plus Ayo/Caruso on the wings who can shoot, play make, and defend. [[Coby]] ends up the odd man out, plus I think [[Dalen]] Terry will ease into some productive minutes as a rookie.

Great win for the Bulls to start the season in what will be a competitive East. Giving me a ton more hope than I had going in.
Felt so good to watch this group run again.

I enjoyed this quite a bit. Austin Butler is sensational as Elvis. It’s definitely style over substance and I tend to like music bio pics when the focus is more on the music, which isn’t the case here, but I still found myself pretty enthralled. There’s probably a good 25min that could be cut from the second half of this movie alone, and I would have much preferred that time be focused on the music earlier on in his career.…

A standup comedian’s drink is much more than a prop or a thirst quencher. It’s a stealth statement.

The logic of scale is imposing a copy-paste sensibility on San Francisco.

I really really really liked this. I don’t think they nailed the hero’s journey in a really satisfying way a bit there in the middle, but still loved it. Behind the scenes stuff is my jam. NBA is my jam. Seeing. Actual basketball and training is my jam. And Adam Sandler not making a shitty comedy is my jam.…

Batshit crazy.…

A ton of fun, brought the nostalgia and vibes; not only that it’s a sequel to an old movie, but had shots and music that made it feel like it could’ve been made in the 80s. But even without the nostalgia, thought they did a great job at telling a compelling story, with some great emotional and action beats throughout the whole film. Never a boring moment.…

This review may contain spoilers. It was fine. Some cool horror elements and some creative deaths, especially Black Bolt and Mr. Fantastic. The music battle was pretty cool too. Still just the marvel formula with a horror twist. Kind of getting tired of everything having to be so tied to the MCU, but the incursion stuff from Hickman’s Avengers run, which seems like it might be the path to the next End Game, was cool.…

I loved the opening; there were some really great shots that felt pulled directly from comic book panels. Hated The Riddler costume and bane-ified voice. Loved The Riddler without those two things towards the end. Colin Ferrel and Zoe Kravitz were by far the best parts. The emotional scenes at the end felt unearned and unnecessary. Overall, it felt almost right up my alley except for some nitpicks and going a bit long.…

Some really great performances and an interesting story, shot in a moody way that I've come to love from GDT. However, it often felt stilted for me and the motivations for characters seemed to fall in the realm of "camp" at times.…

This review may contain spoilers. It's PTA so it's obviously pitch perfect in almost every way, but there was just something about it that prevented me from really being invested in it. I think the conceit of the relationship between a 15yo and 25yo kept me out a bit and I thought it should've just been a friendship between very different people rather than a romantic/jealousy thing.…

This review may contain spoilers. Found this exhilarating. Thought the performances were amazing and so much creativity, especially in blending the times early on. Probably doesn't deserve a full five stars—maybe it's realistic, but there was a heightened level of hysteria that felt a bit too much and made it drag at times.…

This review may contain spoilers. There is an obvious fun that comes from "the multiverse" and bringing back all of these characters and just being in this world that I love, but there wasn't much else there for me. Felt like they started with wanting to bring all of these actors back and then worked backwards to make it happen.…
