Always really loved the Kiko Asics but damn are they expensive (probably worth it, but still).  Which is why I'm super pumped I found LI-NING badminton shoes.  100% not up to the quality of some Kikos given that they’re hot off AliExpress. But damn, crazy colorways, weird patterns, and decently comfy. I feel like they were prop shoes for a 90s movie about 2022.

Their shoes give me height yet comfort and stability. I believe the sole is 3D-printed; they're so light compared to similar counterparts in more traditional materials. I've had mine for about a year and while they're not the best-wearing (the inner sole is kinda wearing away...), it's still a zero-regret expensive purchase for how I feel in them.

I’ve been wearing these as kind of summer sneakers — they’re tan (color not linked, couldn’t find them for sale anywhere) and low key, which means they go with most of what I own, and they’re super lightweight and comfortable. The uppers almost entirely made of a netting, which means wearing them feels only vaguely different from wearing sandals. The breathability is insane and ideal for the summer.

It’s definitely not a (typical?) running sneaker but Hear me out ! I was looking for a new shoe, not a heel or fun thrifty thing, but smth I could wear all the time apart from my docs. I have old running sneakers and have used them for a few yrs now (they’re fine and good.. no issues) whenever I go on runs But I found out about Keen through Viv Chen’s substack - she recommended these for just having a good trusty and cool looking sneaker that are also used for Hiking! So I was like. Yeah I do walk a lot and I like the look of a cool sneaker let’s do it. and then I started wearing them to soccer, just wanted to see how they’d feel/if they were comfortable on the pitch etc. and 1. They were totally fine, felt like I was wearing running shoes and 2. I got many many compliments! I honestly can’t wear these anywhere without getting at least one compliment on them. They’re a hit!! And now I’ve been going on runs with them and they feel great. So I highly suggest investing in a pair o these😌🫧🙏🏼. Theres lots of colorway options too - I got these cuz I like writing with a purple pen so.. purple laces it is!

I had a friend introduce me to this years ago and it’s really gained a fair amount of traction since.  It's a facebook group where people from the North Shore of Massachusetts rate, review, and share pictures of roast beef sandwiches.  There's just something so unreal about the whole thing, especially with the amount of acronyms and depth to these reviews.  It's also really funny that over 20,000 guys from MA will base their personality off a sandwich.  I will say, the sandwich is bomb…  If you're ever in Massachusetts (for whatever godforsaken reason) and you want a good roast beef sandwich, hit up the page or go to a roast beef shop with an angry Greek lady behind the counter.

A dastardly meeting of the minds brought together by @pumpkinnguts, @nicobonaquist, and @orderbydisorder.  They bring together DIY artists and DJs every month for a flea market and after party (darkmart).  Bring your friends and fat wad of cash.

The Peak is great, all electronic dab rig, comes with a case and everything.  No need to stink up your house with bud or have to use a sketchy torch…  Just press the button twice and that's it.  I’m also pretty sure it connects to your phone, but I haven’t gotten that far yet.  Its true cross between being a weed connoisseur and smoking an NFT.  A bit pricey but I haggled with the guy at the local smoke shop for one.
