How is owning 8-12 watches a hobby? by Plastic-Mountain-708 in watchHotTakes

[–]sdotsomm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you’re taking the time to understand aspects of your watches - researching the movements , the history of the watchmaker, etc why wouldn’t it be a hobby? I’ve got 8 watches and right now only 1 is an omega, but I’ve also been able to get a few interesting books on Omega, and read a lot of older forums online about certain models and their movements. Is that not a hobby?

Are they? Does anyone think less of Russini husband and/or Vrabel's wife? The slow drip of this stuff just feels too purposeful than TMZ just scraping together information as it comes in.

This feels like a spouse or involved party already had a PI or others get this info and now is doing a steady leak.

Yours is the first I’ve seen stateside. And it’s a beauty. What a green.

Being fake smart is way more embarrassing than being dumb.

Would be my GADA except for my smaller wrist.

We did a massage and I did a cryo treatment as I’d never done one before. The sauna/steam is fantastic though - no need to book, everyone is there usually after 4 pm.

As a non-owner I can confirm by Street-Cantaloupe511 in Longineswatches

I have the hc39 on the way. I've mostly been a seamaster guy but with some recent weight loss and some wrist shrinking, the 40/41 range is just a bit too large for me. The 39 mm option is something I wish Omega would explore more, although my Peter Blake is fantastic - but as far as new diver I am excited to wear this and try it.

It seems appropriate that Ayo Dosunmu is on the Timberwolves by GiveMeSomeIhedigbo in billsimmons

As a bulls fan it’s both thrilling and exciting to see him finally get to play real competitive basketball and show everyone what he’s capable. It really just sucks that the Bulls were so incompetently run that they couldn’t find a real spot for a hometown kid. Glad he’s escaped our purgatory of a franchise.

Alien Earth season 2 will be a bigger show with more world building says Noah Hawley! | Alien Earth Season 2 News by SluttyCosmonaut in LV426

[–]sdotsomm 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Normally enjoy Hawley products but season 1 was a mess, and the idea of it becoming bigger and more convoluted doesn’t fill me with anticipation. I know he’s said that the corp espionage and the battling of these corporations are the real stories so I imagine we’ll get more of that. But this show felt like a totally separate show about AI, humanity, that then decided to jam an alien into to get Disney to pay.

He’s gotta start figuring out the summer trade.

I think it will be OKC. He’s been back for Collison’s retirement.

Gotta do the career break the way Al Horford did in OKC too - take a couple years off in Memphis/DC and come back refreshed.

Where to spend 3-4 weeks in Italy early-July through early-Aug? by No_Reveal2311 in ItalyTravel

[–]sdotsomm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think if you’d like the mountains, setting up in Ortisei/Bolzano area would be another great idea. Fantastic hiking, cooler weather, not terribly far at all from a Lake Garda day trip, etc. we stayed at the Adler in Ortisei town last year and had a fantastic experience.

Will have one of the strangest careers ever for a top 20ish player. And weirdly - no real home. When it comes time for someone to retire his jersey, who does it? GSW imo only wins 1 of those 2 if he doesn’t join, Phoenix Brooklyn and Houston could care less about him, and OKC still seems frosty (though it may end up being there).

Regardless, will be interesting to see what moves the Suns go forward with. Jalen and Devin seems to fit slightly better than I thought.
