Was supposed to see Pusha-T live a few years back but gig got cancelled, so extremely happy to have seen him in my hometown.
Given that Pharrell Williams is now the Creative Director at Louis Vuitton in Paris and that they recorded the album in the offices, I was low-key hoping for a Pharrell appearance. And not only did he show up, he also came on stage for the very last song!
About last night: #OuiPlay #WNCAA College Basketball opening night, in Paris!
Baylor vs Duke
Cal. Berkeley vs Vanderbilt
Great to see the future of Women’s Basketball in my hometown, for a special double-header! Great performances from Taliah Scott (Baylor #0) and Mikayla Blakes (Vanderbilt #1)
Sheridan’s rise is one of the craziest things to happen in Hollywood this century, (…), I think his billion dollar market value is a tech story in one respect that’s obvious, and one that’s less so.
America is the land of the free and the home of disposable stuff. There’s not much sentimentality about dropping your platform thingy like a rancid steak tartar left on the countertop overnight.
Nothing to add here: moving to/from Silicon Valley and/or the US seems cyclical — there’s clearly success stories coming from all schools of thought, whether SV-based, Europe-based, remote or on-location, etc. At the end of the day, only execution matter
Loved reading about the people behind the movement. Been hearing about most of these places and have them all in my ever-expanding list of places to try :)
Been a huge fan since @hernameisbanks was putting out her first EPs.
Glad to finally see her live — and what a show too:
a great voice live, great choreography/dancing, lights show, in an intimate venue known for its historical significance in the Parisian cultural scene!
Stopped today’s run at 5k:
between the recovery from leg injury + being under the weather this past weekend, having just eaten lunch, and the windy weather, I’d rather hit my weekly goal by pushing later this week than pushing too hard today.
There’s rarely been such an influential artist who’s been as influential as he was reclusive especially with 3 albums over 20 years. (Maybe Jeff Buckley comes to mind…)
Incredibly excited to finally get to my #ParisBasketball home opener tomorrow! Hype’s been building up, the team is playing faster than ever, and while this promises to be a challenging season, our roster is overall more balanced than the past 2 seasons. #Euroleague and #BetclicElite, here we come!
I believe this might be the first time ever, or at least in the past two decades, that I’ve completed a 10k run (and also managed to run over an hour, which is unprecedented for me, especially without any interruptions).
The course had minimal elevation, and the weather was cold and slightly humid. However, I think the temperature at least helped me maintain my pace and push through. Once I completed the larger loop around the lake, I realized that I needed to push just a bit more to reach the 10k mark as well as the hour mark. So, I continued running.
Proud of myself for reaching this milestone. It wasn’t easy, but I made an effort to pace myself more and ensure that I could complete the longer distance and time.
Turnstile was already an all-time Baltimore band.
This year, though? The city’s veteran hardcore quintet was transcendent, reaching levels of rarified air reserved for acts that do more than simply release a great album — they shift culture.
First run for these next couple of weeks in the US.
Overall, quite happy about the performance, especially given that this was a longer run than usual .
Nice to see some bike lines that I could use however, being in the suburbs is definitely not ideal at with regards to running paths.
But if our childhoods were that wonderful, why didn’t Generation X replicate our own experiences for our children? Why did so many millions of free-range kids grow up to become helicopter parents?
🎵 Whenever September comes, I get into a crisp Fall mood and one of my little rituals is to listen to Springsteen & Prince endlessly. Can’t explain it, it just brings me joy!
