New dad!

@HeyImVeryDrew Will do. Thank you for flagging this and hope you have a good day.

[Peter Fenzel @fenzelian]

@HeyImVeryDrew You have every right to be upset. I am mortified and very sorry for this garbo.

There is a conversation to be had about how Scary Spice would not be given that nickname today because it reflects white anxieties but I’m not the one to lead that conversation. I’ll take my L.

@wluera Do you have a go-to Three Kings’ Day dish?

[Peter Fenzel @fenzelian]

@emilygmonster Congratulations!!

I don't blame the 76ers for choosing Ben Simmons over Jimmy Butler. After all, all is vanity, and humans are terrible at making smart decisions, if the ability to make decisions exists at all and isn't just a comforting fiction. They were just living their truth.

When I was a child, #HarryBelafonte showed up for my family in very compassionate ways.

In fact, he paid for the babysitter for me and my siblings.

Here he is mourning with my mother at the funeral service for my father at Morehouse College.

I won’t forget…Rest well, sir.

@clairewillett "The scenery was just so pretty
Boy, I wish the kids could've seen it
But you can't see out of the side of the car
Because the windows are completely covered
With the decals from all the places where we've already been"

@clairewillett You could build a whole undergraduate course on postmodernism around an in-depth close reading of "The Biggest Ball of Twine in Minnesota."

@Legend_Ori Either Ice Climber or Gyromite with a second kid controlling the pipes instead of the robot. I think I tried them both in the same day.

@AustonHab "M. Chomet - Triplets of Belville was a triumph, to be sure, but you haven't completed a feature film since 2003. Why did Nintendo ask you to tell Kirby's story?"

"Il se dandine mais est perdu. Il mange mais n'est jamais rassasié. De plus, la pâte... ne parle pas."

[Peter Fenzel @fenzelian]

@AustonHab I am both thrilled and saddened by the possible future where the Kirby movie not being nominated for Best Picture let alone Best Animated Feature is the biggest Oscar snub of all time.

For better or for worse, the Warriors are the Andrew Wiggins team, the Clippers are the Eric Gordon team, and my Knicks are still the Evan Fournier team.

If you want to know if an NBA team is good or bad and why look at the third-highest-paid player on its roster. That tells you how the front office is prioritizing their resources.

[Peter Fenzel @fenzelian]

The Bucks are the Jrue Holiday team. The 76ers are the James Harden team. The Suns are the Deandre Ayton team.

The Wolves are the Mike Conley team. The Mavs are the Tim Hardaway Jr. team. The Wizards are the Will Barton team.

NEW BLOG -- THE LYRICS TO GOD OF WAR:
https://t.co/eVnUv57EJs

After months (even years!) of fan requests, I am thrilled to partner with my friends at @SonySantaMonica to release the official Old Norse lyrics and English translations to #GodOfWar and #GodofWarRagnarok.

@annielkozak The Houston Rockets and Boban Marjanović.

@mattcolville To me the point of Luthen being Jedi-adjacent in some way would be to bring in spiritual and religious practices and mythologies as part of the social and discursive universe of individual and collective will - if it were the solution to their problems that would suck.

[Peter Fenzel @fenzelian]

@mattcolville We have never seen a Star Wars character turn to the Dark Side as a personal, spiritual act - what it does and what it costs. We have only seen the Dark Side articulated in post-Arthurian allegory and magical symbolism.
