This Friday, I’ll be debuting my newsletter Double Drivel, in which I review a book and muse about basketball. It’d be pretty cool if you subscribed and offered up your email so you can get that good-good straight to your inbox.

Stunned by the early responses to my book. I wrote it for one person besides me--I don't know their name but they just get it. I'm beyond grateful for this generous and thoughtful read of Greyhounds!

I wrote about KiKi Iriafen, destroyer of worlds: theringer.com/2026/08/19/wnb…

Kiki Iriafen Isn’t a Unicorn. She’s a Destroyer.

Don’t sleep on the Mystics’ young star. The WNBA’s next great power forward is here.

Per Synergy, Sonia Citron has guarded more possessions as a primary defender than anyone else in the WNBA. She is holding opponents to 32.7 percent shooting from the field, No. 1 among the top 40 players in possessions guarded.

Replying to @seeratsohi
Genuine question-is Sonia that good of defender? I knew she was above average but THAT good?

I dedicated all of July to Updike's Rabbit novels. So my roundup is a little different this month.

wildfires becoming common enough that we should institute an annual reading of my story 'the american family robinson,' like bloomsday but for environmental catastrophe. burrowpress.com/the-american…

The American Family Robinson - Christian TeBordo

Animals scurried from wood to wood across the lawn. Flames flickered between patches and masses of smoke. It looked like someone had uprooted the Garden of Eden and grafted it onto hell.

Folarin Balogun will be available to play the USMNT’s round of 16 match against Belgium, with his one-game red-card ban that he received against Bosnia and Herzegovina suspended. Article 27 of FIFA’s disciplinary code states that “the judicial body may decide to fully or partially suspend the implementation of a disciplinary measure.” nyti.ms/3RkeoH5

Why is it ‘cancelled’ in the U.K. but ‘canceled’ in the U.S.? Because we gave them that L in 1776.

Let out an audible "wow" at the Mitchell Robinson/Celtics news, and then a much louder "WHOA" at the Walker Kessler/Lakers trade

Sonia Citron is the @WNBA Eastern Conference Player of the Week 🙌 New career-high in steals (5), tied career-high in rebounds (11), recorded the WNBA's first 15+ pt, 5+ reb/ 5+ ast/5+ steal stat line of the season (6/19), & helped lead the Mystics to a 3-game win streak on the road. Soni had quite the week!

friends, please read my latest autofiction. (and thanks to zh/burial for publishing and being rad.)

new in burial: it’s @xtebordo’s ‘is for real is not for real’—this story is totally hilarious but i also find it to be profoundly moving—tebordo goes for a berserk americana, but in a gentler way than that might suggest. and i never quite knew where this would end up. read it 👇!
