A thread: My best friend took his life in 2013, shortly after a Pennsylvania climber went missing in the Sierra, and I bound their stories together. I spent 8 years on it—giving up often-and only @AlpinistMag saw what I was trying to say. alpinist.com/doc/web23w/wfea…

Apologies for not being across a busy few days of Eagles news, but I do have something exciting to share … I won’t be at the stadium today. Gonna watch this one with my daughter (!) and I’ll see you all next week.

There’s a great DJ Quik song about this.
Thought this was satire but no, just a real article by the new head of the American Psychological Association. This shit gets branded as “far left” but it’s just Influencer Slop gussied up with academic jargon. “Doing me unapologetically” and “hyping up my friends” is “science.”

😮 Katie Zacharia crashes and burns on [checks notes] Hannity 😮 If you had the "over" on Zacharia lasting more than one Scaramucci, her epic flame out on Hannity just now won't help your cause HANNITY: You said you consulted with people who advised you it was okay to call yourself a lawyer but not an attorney, correct? ZACHARIA: Correct HANNITY: There's a report out tonight showing 15 social media posts where you identify yourself as an attorney ZACHARIA: I think they were retweets Here's the whole interview:

"No, ’cause I don’t trust Him." Billy Crystal gives a blunt response when asked whether he still talks to God after losing his home of 46 years in the Pacific Palisades wildfires and grieving the death of longtime friend Rob Reiner. "Too many bad things have happened," the 78-year-old comedian says, describing the world as a frightening place and admitting his relationship with God has changed. Crystal also reveals he saw Reiner at a holiday party just one night before the filmmaker and his wife were killed. See how Crystal is honoring his late friend while finding a way forward: foxnews.com/entertainment/bi…

What were humans meant to do?
