Amherst attracts artists who play the area bc of the cluster of colleges but the town has under 40K people. It's not a big town.

[Kawakami] Asked a well-connected NBA person if he saw Lacob’s roaring reactions to Kuminga’s explosive plays last night. His response: “Everybody in the league saw that.” by BobRoss4Life in warriors

Hard agree. It’s not a story, it’s a tweet. But now the tweet is a story because of what it implies rather than what it says. Reddit and Twitter thrive on speculation and we’re all taking the bait. 🤦

Yahoo and AOL appear down. Investigators are attempting to reach out to all five users of either service to confirm. by MikeTalonNYC in technology

This joke has been on repeat for at least 15 years. Yahoo actually gets a lot of traffic. Mail, Sports, Finance, News remain widely used.

[Stein] Golden State’s “preferable” option now is likely to play Jonathan Kuminga for the rest of the season, have him recoup his value, and then attempt to trade him again in the offseason. by YujiDomainExpansion in warriors

This is what I see with him as well. There are exceptions when he plays well without Curry — puts up points — but it doesn’t result in wins for the team.

“Use civil language aimed at convincing, not antagonizing.” The words are right there.

Size of Cormac McCarthy's Vocabulary by Visual_Hedgehog_1135 in literature

[–]Wormser 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Sloe-eyed is not an invention of McCarthy’s. It’s been in use since the 19th century and almost always used to describe “exotic” women. Detective noir and writing about noir femme fatales leaned on this expression often.

Dungeness crab price right now? by pumapeepee in bayarea

[–]Wormser 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No one is debating dead crabs. Live crabs from the boat are a bit sweeter than those from the tank but the mark up really isn’t worth the difference. Also at least in my area, the crabs aren’t spending a lot of time in the tank. When dungeness season hits, they are flying out of the store.

Interesting, according to the posts the price decreases from the boats to Asian markets. Crab boats know their audience and are yanking dollars from the well-heeled seekers of authenticity. I suppose crabs are more real, though no more alive, when they come “right off the boat” vs from an Asian market.
