It's weird to me that any professional athlete would actually drink "Sprite®" and not just shill for it in commercials etc. (I'm kind of a hypocrite, though. I do enjoy a Diet Soda beverage on occasion; maybe once or twice a month. And those are pretty much equally trash.)

I'm in charge of my company's (day job y'all) Twitter account and there are certainly worse tasks in this world but jesus christ all of the Trump Thoughts™ I need to look at/consider. I've been able to successfully purge all Trump-related news / politics in general from my life, except for two arenas. This Twitter account and the stupid TVs at my gym, half of which are on 24-hour cable news channels which cover Trump roughly 98% of the time. I watch movies at the gym but these TVs are giant, looming in pretty much everyone's sightline (it's a Planet Fitness, if that reference works for you––I believe all of their gyms are set up the same way). My previous gym was $30 more a month but only had individual TVs on each machine. Starting to think the extra $360/year was worth it to save me from this hellacious distraction.
Here's an email I just wrote to my brother
re my thoughts on last night's 10-7 Giants victory over the Cowboys.
