2025-2026 NFL Season: The Kindness Thread Football • Page 579

Cane’s for lunch

 

If we only handled the parking for the arena it'd largely be manageable but we operate the lots for this entire complex, and there's 4 or 5 different events going on at the same time and the people running them have some of the worst communication I've ever encountered. I can't wait.

 

lotta folks like fishin' huh

 

been making food at home all week, absolutely shredding weight

 

The Athletic charged me for another year subscription renew without even sending

1) a reminder email
2) a confirmation email

shitty way to do business. Gimme my money back bitch!

 

I scoured the tri-state area and came up with no takers

 

Young Widows album didn’t do much for me, but I tried

 

you scoured the tri-state area for your mom?

 

lmao lil max is seething

 

Seeth deez

 

Just played drums for the first time in weeks. Sounded like dookie, felt even dookier, but going to challenge myself to play for at least an hour a day in order to stay active and creative instead of laying in bed depressed out of my mind

 

hit maker mention on big pic @JoshIsMediocre

 

I cannot beat orange stake in Balatro and it’s annoying

 

literal skill issue

 

This feels like employee error

which would totally happen at a U-Haul lol but there’s no way this is correct protocol. Probably just awful record keeping & communication between staff

 

Kinda just betting each U-Haul franchise is run by a competent worker who cares a LITTLE bit about their job and a lot of them aren’t lol. Lot of them are a tire shop with two trucks and if someone reserves the truck at an earlier date they’ll just shrug their shoulders and say okay lol

 

new music released today that I listened to:
My Morning Jacket - is: fairly standard MMJ - it's not bad and probably better than the last one but they solely exist now to be an incredible live act who sometimes puts out music

Japanese Breakfast - For Melancholy Women (& sad brunettes): pretty short at 32 minutes not a lot grabs me at first - very lush - miss the guitar stuff from the first two records. Honey Water is a keeper and the duet with Jeff Bridges is cool.

Weatherday - Hornet Disaster: will be one of the best emo records of the year - it's fairly long at 76 minutes but never feels draining.

advance music I've been listening to this week:
Planning for Burial - It's Closeness, It's Easy: been waiting 8 years for the follow up to Below the House and wow Thom has leveled up in all ways

Momma - Welcome to my Blue Sky: not a wilco reference unfortunately but one of the best rock bands of the 2020s has another heater on their hands.

Adult Mom - Natural Causes: Stevie's first release since 2020's driver and battling cancer. their best work by far and will end up on a lot of lists I think.

 

I support this wholeheartedly, music is the cure

I’ve started practicing when I’m bored or sad again now that I have a car and it’s 15 minutes to my space not an hour. Helps a lot. Getting better at recognizing that if I haven’t played music in awhile it’s probably because I’m depressed and I try to do things to counteract that rather than letting depression tell me “nah, you’ll do it tomorrow”

 

Re: lunch, it’s burger day at work for staff meal, very glad I toughed it out and didn’t pay for breakfast before practice

 

I also made it from the heart of DC to my job in midtown Baltimore in an hour flat today despite leaving late at 1:57 PM

Crazy how those few precious minutes before 2 PM on a Friday make a huge difference. Had I left 10 minutes later I’d have gotten stuck in like 30 more minutes of traffic. I was noticing traffic starting to get stupid (people stopping for no reason, trucks all in the way of clear lanes etc) and did some nice maneuvering and planning ahead to stay in the fastest lanes

 

how many cyclists did you run off the road

 

76 minutes is insane. what kind of emo are we talking here

 

yeah I've started getting scheduled for 2pm instead of 1:30 and that 30 minute difference is so insane I just told them to put me back at 1:30 cause i have to leave at the same time either way
