As someone who just binged all of Steel Ball Run after watching the first anime ep and thinking “wow, a Jojo story that’s also sort of a Western and doesn’t go crazy with Stand stuff is super cool,” I really REALLY can’t wait to see people react to the absolute batshit directions this thing goes

Good time to remind yourself that Polygon got bought by an evil media conglomerate that buys outlets, fires everyone, and turns them into clickbait/SEO slop content mills powered by freelancers who are paid basically nothing

OOT Remake take: This is such a stupid thing, but the fact that they removed the ability to equip multiple items simultaneously is baffling to me. Now I have to pause mid-fight to scroll through some overstuffed quick menu to go from Nuts to the Bow?What???

I can’t stop thinking about Omega vs Ospreay. The match itself was brilliant, but the presentation and the way it built on more than a decade of these two performers’ incredible careers…god, everything about it just really worked for me. It felt like a monumental event in wrestling canon.

I’ve had my highs and lows with AEW over the years, but man, when it hits, it just hits. You can feel the love and admiration and respect Tony has for his wrestlers—as artists, as people, as figures in a broader history of the form. That Ospreay intro and entrance was a peak example. Beautiful stuff

Nothing has made me feel more “old man yells at cloud” status than GTA6. Every new detail I read just makes me angrier and angrier at how much labor and money went into something so god damn boring.

I understand the existence of The Duskbloods is controversial for some FromSoft fans, especially the beleaguered Bloodborne lovers, but this is exactly the kind of weird, modestly budgeted multiplayer experiment that the games industry has largely lost in the last decade, and I am here for it.

This was always the most obvious outcome, and this right here was my take from the beginning. If the threshold for punishment is “we need to find a document that literally says they were circumventing the cap,” then the league does not actually care about cap circumvention.

The Thunder WOULD sign the LinkedIn guy from Denver lmao. I’ve never thought about it this way before, but they are such a LinkedIn-ass organization.

So I’ve been making my way through Naoki Urasawa’s manga series, and I gotta say, nothing could ever EEEEVER have prepared me for this moment in Billy Bat.

People can feel whatever kind of way about him as they want, but Dort is, in many ways, the symbol of the heart and ethos of this era of Thunder basketball. See you down the road, king 🫡

It’s just Summer League BUT I hope all the freaks out there who were questioning Darryn Peterson and saying he should never be picked first are feeling all kinds of embarrassed. That kid is and has always been a killer, and he’s going to be so good in the NBA.

Stupid, horrible, totally predictable bad news this morning. If there’s any sort of silver lining, it’s that Compulsion and Double Fine are being granted ownership of their IPs on the way out. But this line about Arkane is odd:

From an Xbox mass layoff announcement: Compulsion Games and Double Fine Productions will return to management and transition to independent studios with their IP, catalog, and runway for their next games. Ninja Theory and Undead Labs have entered terms to join new ownership with funding to complete and grow Senua and State of Decay 3. In France, Arkane’s management is beginning required consultation with its Works Council to review potential strategic options

Happy Independence / Don’t Overreact to Summer League Day, Thunder fans! (Seriously do not overreact to Summer League, especially if our guys put up a stinker against Memphis; this Grizzlies SL team is freakin’ STACKED)

I know jackshit about football, but why does offsides count if the pass occurs inside the penalty area? That just seems silly.

The transformer outside our place blew up and now everyone is without power on the hottest day of the year so far, so that’s fun

“A healthy Jalen Williams is the Thunder’s big offseason acquisition,” I keep muttering to myself as I watch the rest of the league have fun shuffling players around

I thought the Rui to San Antonio thing was a done deal, so imagine my dismay when this Tobias Harris deal came through and I thought they were somehow acquiring BOTH of them

That bit from the Brunson/Hart podcast with Mike Brown where he tells the story of talking to Dillon Jones throughout the playoffs and asking “Hey, what did Mark and Sam do?” is VERY funny

Everyone is talking about Trump’s mock up arch at the Great American State Fair, so I filmed it from top to bottom and front to back for everyone who can’t see it in person.

Gotta wait things out, but rumblings (The Oklahoman’s Thunder beat reporter) that OKC is “likely” to pick up Dort’s team option…which doesn’t change the calculus on his future in OKC all that much, ha. A trade is still very much on the table and always felt like the most realistic option.

Of course it might not work out, but I think the LaMelo trade is low-key smart as hell for Minnesota when you bother to think about it in the greater Western Conference context. That’s a bet on playing fast, shooting deep, and the power of pull-up threes, all things that are critical against OKC/SAS

I’m gonna miss Isaiah Joe’s end-of-quarter buzzer beaters. I swear, he never missed a single one.

gerardi.bsky.social @gerardi.bsky.social · 26/06/2026

I will never forget being in Madison Square Garden and watching Isaiah Joe absolutely obliterate the Knicks with 23 points in the first half

gerardi.bsky.social @gerardi.bsky.social · 26/06/2026

The inevitable follow-up after the Wiggins move. Same deal, same situation. The value for OKC is in moving Joe without getting a player back, which is exceptionally hard to do. Joe should be a killer in Detroit. Great fit for him.

I’m hearing reports that they removed that one dude’s “cocky little freaks” line in the Star Fox remake, which, if true, instantly flags this thing as a massive, pointless failure. Sorry. I don’t make the rules.

I can’t believe Berserk and Hunter × Hunter returned in the same month. What a time to be alive.

With NIL creating a strong international-to-college pipeline, weird domestic draft-and-stash picks like this are going to start popping up (especially when you factor in the current CBA, too). It’s going to be interesting to see how this plays out.

gerardi.bsky.social @gerardi.bsky.social · 25/06/2026

Mara, Stirtz, and now, reportedly, Creighton’s Josh Dix as a UDFA signed to a two-way. They’re calling it the whitest draft of all time.

Creighton guard Josh Dix is reportedly signing with the Thunder on a two way contract

Spurs take one of my favorite second-round guys, Maliq Brown. Another big, high-motor, physical defender. So…they basically took three of the same guy ha.

010

gerardi.bsky.social @gerardi.bsky.social · 25/06/2026

Oweh is a fun pickup for the Thunder in the second round. Former Sooner, of course, but a good defender who plays with a lot of force on offense. Yes, he’s kind of “Dort-esque.” I imagine he’ll get some run on a two-way.
