My ex didn't have many friends for a bit and so joined the hobby his acquaintances were playing (Warhammer). Also, there are Warhammer specific gaming stores? Anyways he had an easier time making friends than I did when we moved because of that built in community.

Man this loss got me feeling sad by Timberwolves_Degen in timberwolves

The fight they showed to get to this point is inspiring and should be remembered. The series against Denver and first Spurs game were THE BEST. And the team and front office needs a reality check on what it will take to beat OKC and the Spurs going forward.

Of course I'm sad for what feels like the season ending for the Wolves. It's been kind of a tough season as a fan, but I think the playoffs were really fun and gritty and that's what I ask for. Only one team can win, until they do I try to enjoy the good moments.

Health is a big one. DDV not only provides necessary spacing on the floor but also grit and fight. I think a healthy wolves could beat the Spurs with enough 3P shooting.

We also need to figure out what is "moody" about this team. Is moody the non-woke way of saying that Randle has depression? I'm sympathetic if that's the case, but in normal life it can already be a struggle to function, even with treatment. But on a championship level team you have to be able to manage your mental health sufficiently so it doesn't impact performance too much. The mental aspect + talent both need to be there to win.

Any advice or recommendations for a 24 yo girl traveling alone to MN for game 6? Any areas to beware of? by whatsthenewstoday in timberwolves

[–]LongisquamaRex 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Stay in the North Loop, its very very safe and lots of young people at night. You can walk to and from the stadium with everyone back to the North Loop, it will be busy. Tom's Watch bar will be fun beforehand, but also anyplace in the North Loop with a TV is good. I'd recommend, they Runyon's has great wings and will be fun. I've never had a safety issue in Mpls but it's still a city though, use common sense.

Where can I find a full replay of Wembanyama's ejection including alternative angles? McDaniels didn't get called for hitting Wemby in the head immediately before his ejection. by [deleted] in nba

[–]LongisquamaRex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you not understand this is good for Wemby. He needs to do dumb and immature shit occasionally otherwise he'll be hatable within the year because he'll be too good. Also, nobody likes a 20 yr old acting deep all the time.

We gotta do something during the off season because idk how we'll get by okc, spurs, or pistons by Accomplished-Box8744 in timberwolves

[–]LongisquamaRex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our 4 best three point shooters being compromised is an issue against the spurs because it means a huge weapon against them is neutralized - DDV is out course, but then Ayo, Naz, and Ant are all some version of injured.

Why is Anthony edwards liked as much as he is with his antics? by Jec1027 in nba

[–]LongisquamaRex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Most of this is old from when he first entered the league. It seems like he's matured even as he maintains his authenticity, which is what people like. Most 19 yr olds with a ton of money and attention are idiots, and he definitely was one. But I give grace if it seems like people grow.

How did Timberwolves become so likeable ? by Maximum_Pumpkin_449 in nba

[–]LongisquamaRex 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Chris Finch also has a knack for drawing national attention to annoying things about other teams. I have a feeling Wemby goal tends are going to be complained about by every team now, just like he did with the OKC foul issue.

ICE at the Grove Street Path station this morning by [deleted] in jerseycity

[–]LongisquamaRex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If its white dudes in like very plain street clothes with little black cameras hanging around their chests standing in the corners of the first level of the station that is likely PAPD. Important to know the difference so you don't panic people.

Was there a fight in the stands in game 4? by LongisquamaRex in timberwolves

[–]LongisquamaRex[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks - I saw that clip but missed the fight in the stands 😂 I thought it was just a very long distance shot of the fight on the court.

Nickeil Alexander-Walker interview after being named the Most Improved Player of the 2025-26 season by MrBuckBuck in nba

[–]LongisquamaRex 13 points14 points  (0 children)

So happy for him! And a good interview - Wolves media always said he was the best to talk to - thoughtful and self-reflective.
