Derek Jeter has only 4.7 sec of charisma at a time. That’s why these commercials only show him close in quick cuts and then linger over distant shots: they’re trying to stretch that 4.7 sec of charisma over a 30 sec commercial.

I can no longer tell when Apple Music offers me a specific song because of my highly curated musical choices from over the years or my 9yo's garbage taste in dubstep.

We lived on this corridor for 11 years, and it is 100% this one dude banking on Hopkins expanding its real estate holdings a few blocks east of Homewood. Which they’ll never do because their campus cops dont want/aren’t allowed to go out that far.

Among the wise men of this world
Escapes the snares set by these two?

The preacher told me, "Give up wine" - contempt was in the saying;
"Sure,

donkeys braying?
No, I won't do it.

O God, I pray, give me 
A wine that will not make 
Me drunk and crapulous, 
Or cause my head to ache.

The man who'd criticize
Hafez's poetry
Must have a brutal soul
Devoid of charity!

Come, sheikh, and join in our 
Carousing - you'll be given 
A draught of wine that you 
Won't ever find in heaven;

WINE IN MY GLASS, AND ROSES IN MY ARMS,

On such a day the world's great king would be my slave and fear me.

NOT A METAPHOR
المنة تن كدوميكده بازاست
THANKS BE TO GOD NOW THAT THE WINE-SHOP DOOR
Is open, since it's there I'm heading for;
The jars are groaning with fermented wine, 
With wine that's real, and not a metaphor,

So take the laughing wine cup, raise it in your hand, 
Caress your lover's curls, and say Hafez has spoken;
How many vows of abstinence the world has seen 
So fervently affirmed, and - like Hafez's - broken.

The Boron Sheikh @dasfuller.bsky.social · 30/09/2026
Hafez, just like us.
Final couplet of an English translation of a poem by Hafez:

Fate drags me to the wine-shop's door - 
  And though I turn and twist,
That's where I always finish up;
  It's useless to resist.

Munetaka Murakami on how he deals with high pressure situations like the postseason: 

"I think it’s important to just be honest with yourself about how you’re feeling in that moment. If you’re nervous, I don’t think you need to force yourself to not be nervous. And if you’re feeling the pressure, you don’t need to convince yourself that you’re not. What’s most important is to recognize and sort through those feelings, even while you’re out there on the field, and still be able to compete calmly. More than anything, I think it’s about trusting the preparation you’ve put in and everything you’ve experienced and fought through over the past year, and just continuing to do that without changing anything. That’s what I think is most important.”
