🏀 Fifth #Euroleague win in a row for my @ParisBasketball tonight against Kaunas Zalgiris and our French point guard Sylvain Francisco Not a great game, lots of small mistakes and inaccuracies, but if the season was stopping there we’d be Playoffs bound so… 🤷‍♂️

🏀 Hi #ParisBasketball, and welcome to Kaunas Zalgiris for this 9th round of the Euroleague

A little late but finally finished Season 17 of #GreysAnatomy (aka the 2020 COVID Season) Been watching since Season 3, what feels like multiples lifetimes ago! One of my favorite shows ever, one that has seen me grow from a teenager and into now a grown adult and family man.

Something’s to look forward tod to with extreme excitement: the new trailer for the final installment of the #MissionImpossible saga has dropped! youtu.be/NOhDyUmT9…

My wife is watching #HowIMetYourMother for the very first time. It serves as a rewatch for me. But damn Subway Wars might be one of the all-time best episodes of the whole show!

I’m not one to run away from hardship and try to escape my problems, but with the shit that’s been going on with my family these past few months it’s hard not too think that living abroad would make certain things easier…

🎶 📚 Finished reading “Walking Disaster” a few days ago, the autobiography/memoir by Sum 41 founder Deryck Whibley. As a huge Sum 41 and pop punk fan, this was great and revealed a lot of things I had never heard of before. Highly recommend it for likeminded fans! #BookThreads

Day 1-3 of a 4-day weekend spent ailing from food poisoning while the baby is recovering from something else too

🏀 Incredible night at my @ParisBasketball @Euroleague game against Partizan Belgrade. 7000 people with about 2000+ Serbian visitors that made themselves at home. No incidents but a tense atmosphere all game long… and we got away with another win, making it 5W-3L in our first #Euroleague campaign

Damn you all to Hell!

Everyone wish a happy birthday to @adders :)

Such sublime moments require no justification beyond the pleasure they provide to viewers. And if you like action movies, John Wick: Chapter 4 will give you a lot of pleasure — literally, …

AO Scott on ending his career as a Film Critic: I’m not a fan of modern fandom. This isn’t only because I’ve been swarmed on Twitter by angry devotees of Marvel and DC and (more recently) “Top Gun: Maverick” and “Everything Everywhere All at Once.” It’s more that the behavior of these social media hordes represents an anti-democratic, …

Lovely lazy Sunday

What a lovely day, @FranceRugby #FRAvWAL

Always great to get back to #QuaiBranly but even more so for this Kimonos exhibition!

A propos of nothing, it seems that Micro.blog now supports a feature around Bookshelves & Reading List — the rationale being that keeping track of books via @microdotblog is a good way to then share thoughts, which is a very nice idea… I wish there was a way to sync w/Oku tho…

Yesterday was a good day!

Really happy to finally be able to put these frames up @FrenchTeam 🤩 🇫🇷 ⚽️ #AllezLesBleus

After an unprecedented winter window in which they signed seven senior players for over £280million, there is one question dominating the sport: How are Chelsea able to embark on such a spending spree while abiding by UEFA’s Financial Fair Play (FFP) regulations?

Shout out to @PetBerisha for the fantastic breakdown on the @Sorare x @PremierLeague deal

After the @WSJopinion piece called “Are there too many Asians?”, I’m seeing a piece called “Are French People just lazy?” in @nytopinion today. …Which begs the question: are there any good editors left?!

If you’re able to watch it on Apple TV+ (which is a service I definitely recommend), “Super League: The War for Football” is a fascinating look at what happened in 2021!

Unsurprisingly, the Twitter layoffs are even worse than you could imagine. In the court of Public Opinion, I don’t know how you support Elon after this.

Related to @microdotblog: just renewed my licence for the year — that was an easy one 😅

Seeing my wife play around Substack + the Twitter shenanigans has me rethinking social media + communication with my friends & peers. There’s a world where I dedicate enough time across DayOne, Micro.blog, and Substack to link them all together…

Switching to a low-carb vegetarian diet (coupled with daily workouts) while my wife is away, and before the upcoming US trip. Recent meals include: fried curry tofu, lots of konjac, healthy salads, peanut-gochujang tofu… And today: vegan bolognaise with konjac noodles 🍝

Very excited to finally check out @Cinema_Louxor after 3-4 years living just a few blocks from it (to watch ”Wheel of a fortune and Fantasy”, thank you for asking!)
