I was on the golf team in high school, and became somewhat proficient despite all my efforts to not take it seriously. Haven't played in years, nay, decades

There are many p good reasons to find golf hateable. I love to play though and the one and so far only time I shot under par for 18 holes at my local course is without question the greatest achievement of my life and the 10 minute walk home from the 18th green to my house was the happiest I have ever felt about anything I've ever done in my entire life. I'm p sure I will never be that deliriously happy again.
That said I also remember playing with a couple of friends when I was about 12 and when they committed some etiquette faux pas that I managed to avoid a couple of adult members playing behind us shouted at them pointed to me and called out "don't walk over the green, look even the darkie gets it".

Whatever Chris Pratt and his wife did to this house they bought which apparently is upsetting the internet enough that I've seen this story 100x today.

I also don’t care for the conversation around it. is it “bad”? obviously, who cares. it’s for children. better than playing with guns or whatever

also, tumblr, and what people thought about it, and whatever cultural impact it might have had some some people at some time.

and fan fiction, and apparently, "archive of our own". I encounter a lot of people on bluesky (and previously, twitter), and when they start going on about this stuff I immediately think "LAME"

i suck at all games like that though. my brain doesn't do them right. i refuse to play scrabble. i have some sort of letter and number thing. a spatial thing. i can't see...the patterns. i am hopeless at anagrams. i would do the word search when i was a kid. that was fun. those and mazes. i could handle that kind of tedium. my brain loves maze tedium. i don't ever actually have to get to the end of the maze. i'm happy in there.

I make my entire living with words and word-based puzzle games are a complete blind spot for me. Can't do 'em, don't want to. I play solitaire and Tetris on my phone to drop my brain into a low enough gear that I can fall asleep.

kendrick, drake dis tracks

I'm bad at games in general, but word games kill me. My Brain is not wire in a way that will allow me to do a crossword puzzle.
Dis tracks are also beyond me. I'll read that Kendrick is killing Drake in some song and I get excited and when I listen to it... "Is that all there is?" Sounds like teenagers bickering, who gives a shit.
