enrico/eric @tonymac.bsky.social · 29/08/2025The impression I get from YouTube essays that I’m made to sit through by young people in my life is “why would I spend 80 minutes figuring out something to do after reading a ten minute article when instead I can just watch a 90 minute video.” 😐 020 0
enrico/eric @tonymac.bsky.social · 25/08/2025Maybe something folks are uncomfortable with is that in sports, if you win we’ve kinda decided it doesn’t matter if it’s against the rules or the rules are wack. It only matters if you’re caught (Balco, Armstrong). Brady’s 1st ring still counts even if the tuck rule was changed. But why moralize? 020 0
enrico/eric @tonymac.bsky.social · 25/08/2025It’s like “that was a terrible decision… but moving on because there are systemic issues at play that I have no influence over and someone smarter than me will write that essay.” And meanwhile folks in the group chat/discord/social platform say they’re just so mad, but like… ok. 110 0
enrico/eric @tonymac.bsky.social · 25/08/2025I’m surprised by how many tennis fans really seem to love the order and decorum. Like if referees were cops, NBA and soccer fans are like ACAB and tennis fans are like blue lives matter. One of few sports I can think of where heckling the ump isn’t a time-honored tradition. 041 0

enrico/eric @tonymac.bsky.social · 01/03/2025O also: yeah the headline sucks. I hope that by calling it clickbait, my agreement was apparent. You may be much more generous than me if you take the account’s question about who she is at face value! 🙃 Maybe you value public convo as a principle more than me who misses expertise in the discourse? 010 0
enrico/eric @tonymac.bsky.social · 01/03/2025Again, editors write the headlines not writers. It would be nice if huge accounts (i.e. whoever runs the beloved Mr Takei’s social) were more knowledgeable, on account of their influence. Ignoring the shade in their question is willful ignorance. Instead of screenshots, how about links+commentary? 120 0
enrico/eric @tonymac.bsky.social · 01/03/2025Even if he could read, it seems like he would very much choose not to, which is probably the bigger problem for a head of state. Not being able to read fortunately takes that choice off his plate, which thank goodness, he’s such a busy man. 040 0
enrico/eric @tonymac.bsky.social · 01/03/2025Twenty three years ago, a friend’s roommate, an investment banker, went into the office on his first day off in weeks because he didn’t know what else to do with his time. It was then that I realized I would never understand people who aren’t curious to try new hobbies, to take leisure seriously. 120 0

enrico/eric @tonymac.bsky.social · 15/02/2025It’s basically pistachio Nutella. I’ve had it for about 9 hours but you can put it on toast, stir some in your coffee, eat it straight from the spoon, rub it on your face like a mask and let the oils hydrate while the sugars exfoliate, etc. 120 0
enrico/eric @tonymac.bsky.social · 15/02/2025I learned today that jars of pistachio cream are at Costco. Nuts are healthy. Green things are healthy. This is a green nut product suited for both breakfast and dessert: incredible range! Point being, it may be mid-winter, but it’s going to be Pistachio Cream Spring N Summer. 110 0
