2024.05.20 03:20 Jason_with_a_jay What a trip! Photo dump and some thoughts for other travelers
What a great time in Manual Antonio. My Airbnb was basically on the border of the park. Probably less than 50 meters to the park entrance. Every day I hung out with monkeys, watched basilisks run across the water, and saw some amazing di̶n̶o̶s̶a̶u̶r̶s̶ birds. At one point I had a family of white tail deer within 10 feet of me, a black iguana within 5 feet of me, and a capuchin monkey within three feet of me. The photos of the capuchin monkey you see are not zoomed in. She ditched her troop and crossed the creek to hang out. I am in absolute awe at their intelligence and emotional ability. Her troop kept moving and when she realized they had left her, she got noticeably upset at not being able to find them. She kept looking from me to the jungle. Eventually I saw one of the babies playing in the stop of the palm. I pointed them out to her and she looked distraught about how far away they were. Then she sat on the rock next to where I was standing and clapped her hands at me. Clearly she thought I owed her something for her time and wasn't happy when I wasn't going to give her anything. It was the most amazing experience of my life with an animal, and I've befriended an elephant. The squirrel monkeys would come by my apartment every afternoon. I would walk around the corner and into the jungle, and we would just watch each other watching each other. And they stayed there playing and watching until I would leave. Then they'd continue their patrol of searching for food and avoiding capuchin. submitted by Jason_with_a_jay to CostaRicaTravel [link] [comments] I went to Costa Rica for the people, the culture, and the animals and everything exceeded my expectations. Ticos are amazing people. Kind and friendly. Everyone has jokes and you or someone in your group is probably going to be the butt of one. It's like an entire country of dads. They're hilarious and I love them. Did I mention kind? My flight home got canceled because of storms in Dallas. When I pulled up a day late to return the car, I told the guy what happened and that I was told to just drop it off and they'll charge me an additional day. Not a problem. He said that he saw a $45 charge for the extra day, which would be $51 with taxes or fees or whatever. And my guy went in and put a $45 credit on my bill and wiped out the charge. I love that dude. Shout out to the waiter at El Sitio in Cartago who refused to serve me an Imperial until I pronounced it right. Honestly by the end of the trip it felt like home. I was acclimated to the heat, comfortable driving and kept thinking about whether I could afford to retire there on a meager income. Some tips or thoughts for other people going. The tap water is safe and delicious. Don't go down there and waste money to create a bunch of plastic trash. When you ask for water in a restaurant or soda, ask for "un vaso con aqua" otherwise they're probably going to bring you a bottled water because you're a tourist. You always hear, "It's expensive there." No it's not. This is coming from privileged gringos who think because the people are poor, they should be able to eat and travel dirt cheap. You will spend far more staying in a US city for a week than you will in Costa Rica. The expense of Costa Rica is mostly upfront. Airfare, hotels/airbnbs, and transportation are the biggest expenses. Even then. I got very nice king hotel suites for under $150 in San Jose. The same or less than you'd expect to pay here in the States. Once you're in country, what you spend is on you. You can go on $200 excursions. Or you can take cheaper tours and chill. You can go eat breakfast at an upscale restaurant and pay 14,000 - 20,000 colones. Or you can go to a soda and pay 6,000. It's all up to you. I went down with $1700 to spend, and even with the added cost from a flight cancelation, I came back with over $500. And honestly I could have come back with more, but some opportunities came up that I didn't want to say no to. Driving in CR. If you've driven in other Latin American countries then you might be in for a shock. It's a lot more like driving in the US than some place like Ecuador. Traffic in San Jose is insane, but manageable. I don't get the complaints some make about the roads. Most tourists are going to be driving on highways that are pretty well maintained. Even the back roads in and around pueblos aren't bad. They're just unpaved gravel with the no more potholes than you'd expect on any dirt road in the US. You can drive at night in the city and around tourist areas. Don't try and drive outside of those areas at night. Costa Rica is dark like no place else I've been. I don't even remember seeing the stars there. It's definitely not safe. If you've never driven in Latin America, you'll do ok, but the traffic in SJ may be a bit much. Unless you've driven on around some plafe like LA/Baltimore/DC at rush hour. Then you kind of know what to expect. Converting money to USD. Too easy. Replace the comma with a decimal and double the number. 10,000 colones is $20.00. Speaking to people. A lot of people know English. Especially most of the people you'll interact with. I know enough Spanish to get myself around, but it's too easy to just say "hablo un poco español," and everyone will be happy to try and help. Just pull out your translation app and you're good. I also found that Ticos were happy to help me with my spanish and many had questions about English they wanted to ask. I didn't know how badly I wanted someone to ask me to define "cocky" until Chad at Donde Alex asked me. Go to restaurants when they aren't crowded. These places can get busy, and going when they're slow is a totally different experience. Like I said, Ticos are awesome people and interacting with the waiters, cooks, and the souvenir vendors on my way to the beach were some of the best times I had there. Go visit. Have fun. Interact with the people there. And no preocupados. Todo está bien en Costa Rica. Pura vida✌️and muchas gracias to all the Ticos and Ticas who made my trip special. |

2024.05.20 00:15 Due_Ant_8172 Preview of my "Italia" Mod
It took a long time to clean the borders submitted by Due_Ant_8172 to eu4 [link] [comments] Quick: I did resolve the crashing issue. Embarassingly, I had forgotten to add my newly added provinces to their respective nearest trade nodes after I ported them over from this mod's earlieoutdated version. At least that means I can use this beautiful (and "sold separately") map mod in peace. This is a mod I've been working on that is a conversion (using the fan converter) over from CK2 with a lot of tweaking to make it a more "sensible" alt history. I started as the Welf Kings of Arles (Burgundy) and established the Empire of Italia through both conquest & marriage, though King Otto of Germany hilariously died of a sudden illness without heirs so I never got the battle to throw off Germanic influence that I was hoping for. That happening is also why I divided Germany up into a bunch of successor kingdoms. I'm still trying to figure out how to slow both ERE and Italia at the start. I made a second bookmark but because I suck at event/decision modding it's kinda broken right now. Other tidbits: "Africa" and Egypt are both "Latinized"/"Italianized" (I added two new "latin" cultures) and catholic, and somehow both Morroco and Marrakech are Catholic but ruled by native dynasties. The CK2 AI also somehow pulled off an AI-ruled Nestorian Iraq so when I did my border clean up I honored that achievement and buffed them up some (Nizamids) so you do in fact have a Nestorian start (they and their vassals are the only starts. Due to crusades, Hejaz (Mecca/Medina) are also Catholic, but ruled by native Arabs (I purposely let a liberation revolt succeed at the end of the game). England actually starts as "Warwick", an AI made custom kingdom. They will literally just form England immediately though. I changed their dynasty name to "of Warwick". Also English culture, somehow, still emerged even without William's invasion (I forgot how, must have ended up with Norman/French rulers anyway). However, unlike in our timeline/vanilla the "Normanization" was not complete, there are small pockets of Anglo-Saxon cultures still present in "de jure" England. Wessexian, Essexian, East Anglian and Mercian as well as (the biggest remnant) Northumbrian. I edited the Weeds in the Garden event to where rather than Orthodox provinces going Catholic, they will instead choose one of the CK2 heresies the fan converter added to the game, and Catholic provinces pre-reformation will be the same; even Arianism has a (very rare) chance to pop up. Overall I'm still trying to figure out what else to do for this mod, I don't know if it's ready to be posted publicly just yet. |

2024.05.19 14:38 qiumo_talk 「苦难诗社:灰熊2024赛季总结」Grizzlies 2023-24 Season Summary: The Tortured Poets Department
写在最前:这是我在2024年4月19日写的文章。那天我最爱的艺术家霉霉发表了专辑TTPD,其中文译名为”苦难诗社“,我认为非常契合灰熊本赛季的主题。 submitted by qiumo_talk to memphisgrizzlies [link] [comments] Written first: This is an article I wrote on April 19, 2024. That day, my favorite artist Taylor Swift released the album TTPD. I think it fits the Grizzlies' theme of this season very well. 考虑到原文篇幅较长,所以我只会在这里发布英文版。如果你感兴趣,可以去我的微博看中文版: Considering the length of the original article, I will only post the English version here. If you are interested, you can go to my Weibo to see the Chinese version. - Remember the names of these 33 warriors. https://preview.redd.it/05zsptapld1d1.png?width=1920&format=png&auto=webp&s=5c9193aa7b5e49cee95cd2727c30aa4a5b4f9b79 After three hard-fought quarters against the Nuggets, the Grizzlies eventually lost. Much like most of the season’s games, they displayed convincing moments. Whenever the opponent attempted to push the game into a decisive depth, TJ would call a timely timeout to catch a breath and then immediately launch a counterattack. If you were an unfamiliar fan tuning in during the final moments of many games, you’d be puzzled: who are these guys? How are they tying the score against Joker, JT, Bron, and AD? But most of the time, effort couldn’t beat talent. No worries, I was just as surprised as you. But after watching the Grizzlies' final game of the season in the early morning, I took a deep breath as the fleeting memories of the past six months flashed before my eyes like a slideshow, and I understood them. This is the Grizzlies' second-lowest win rate season in the past 15 years. They had 33 players wear the jersey, missed 578 games due to injury, and used 51 different starting lineups (all NBA records). Even one of the league’s loudest home courts, FedEx Forum, often had many empty seats for most of the season. "For just $2, you can see Timmy Allen, Jack White, and Zavier Simpson play live!" This isn’t a joke. On April 9, facing the Spurs at home, all three played at least 25 minutes. They limited Rookie of the Year Wemby to 18 points on 19 shots but were still dominated on the boards by Sandro Mamukelashvili and lost the game. Despite several key players coming and going, last season the Grizzlies boasted the league's best home record (35-6), but this season they only won nine games at home. After back-to-back home losses to the Blazers (who finished last in the West with 21 wins but beat the Grizzlies three times) on March 2, GG Jackson admitted postgame: "You see your fans leaving with like 8 minutes left in the game, that really sticks us as players. They want to come see us play. And that's kind of like them slapping us in our faces like, 'We don't want to see you play.' We've got to change that." I understand these people. This has been a season full of hardship for players, coaches, management, the team, fans, and the city. From before the season, we were devastated by unprecedented injuries. Anyone still paying attention to this team is a true Grizzlies fan. Special credit to the players and coaching staff—by January, the season had already lost its meaning. The basketball gods didn’t favor them despite Ja’s season-ending injury but instead brought more injuries. Yet, even so, they fought on and never gave up. I don’t recall any game being "surrendered"—no matter how few players were left, they gave it their all on the floor. https://preview.redd.it/godn2cysld1d1.png?width=1024&format=png&auto=webp&s=88a5a76c9627381d1ec46d31f5875dfa10b2957c My favorite artist Taylor Swift released her 11th album, "The Tortured Poets Department," today, and I’m willing to call the 2024 Grizzlies "The Tortured Players Department"—injured, pained, struggling, liberated, relieved, and then filled with hope. I don’t know how fans will remember and evaluate this most painful season in NBA history ten years from now—but while the memories are still fresh, I’ll do it now. Two Black SwansIf we set the start of a season as the day after playoff elimination, then as early as last May, shadows had already enveloped the team. Like me, Morant wasn’t good at live streaming, and for the second time, he brandished a gun in a car. When I got the news, I was packing for a trip to Guangzhou the next day and nearly tore a basketball sock in half. Opinions on the Smart trade were generally positive, and Raymon and I were full of praise for GG and Slaw Dawg’s Summer League performances on the Chinese Grizzlies podcast. Missing Morant for 25 games meant we couldn’t secure home-court advantage like the past two years, but securing a play-in spot seemed reasonable. In an open Western Conference, all it took was a lucky playoff matchup, and a full-strength team could still achieve something. Then Stevo was out for the season. Unlike Morant's short-term impact on the record, this was a heavy blow to all remaining hope. I dejectedly said: "No matter what, they can’t play like last year or even the year before, and they can’t find another Adams through trade or signing. The Grizzlies’ new season hasn’t even started, but it might already be over." At this point, it was just three days before the season opener. The appearance of two black swans cast a shadow over the season before it even began. Finding Joy in SufferingThe Grizzlies' first 25 games were like me trying to stand on a balance ball in the gym for the first time—standing seemed not too difficult, but whenever I tried to squat, my legs started shaking uncontrollably, and most of the time, I fell off. After five straight losses, the Grizzlies quickly signed the overlooked Biyombo and then played some decent games, but the injury wave followed one after another. At the most extreme, the Grizzlies had to use their paper-thin fourth point guard—Jacob Gilyard, who should have shined in the G League—a player about my height and weight because Ja, Smart, and Rose were all injured. https://preview.redd.it/zmk62bq3md1d1.png?width=1600&format=png&auto=webp&s=4ee1bbd1eda0ba13c4715fcf15391b5fdc67de32 To be fair, the Grizzlies showed resilience at that time. Facing the "BIG4 Clippers," the Grizzlies won their second game of the season on the road. Gilyard (6+5+3+3) held his own against Harden (11+4+3); against a full-strength Celtics, Aldama put up 28+12+6 and almost pulled off an upset; Bane dropped 49 points to lead a comeback win over the Pistons, scoring in the fourth quarter as much as Cunningham, Bojan, Duren, and Ivey combined. The Grizzlies could keep up with most paper-strong teams and even come back from 15-20 points down but usually lost in the final moments. Bane took on an overwhelming offensive load, being the only consistent scorer, three-point shooter, and transition player, but he mostly held up; JJJ was often forced to play the five, which he disliked, making both offense and defense awkward and inefficient. As for the untested young players, they rarely held the ball securely in the fourth quarter. With a 6-19 record, second-to-last in the West, trailing the play-in zone by more than five games; Bane’s performance was the team’s lone standout, determining both the floor and ceiling; aside from JJJ, Aldama, and Roddy, almost no one was healthy. The Grizzlies’ net rating still ranked higher than their record, their defensive efficiency remained in the top ten, but they couldn’t score. A Brief SpringDecember 20—just an ordinary game day, but Grizzlies fans had been waiting almost four months. The Pelicans, with their formidable build, weren’t an ideal opponent after a long layoff, but Morant loved such games. He probed in the first two quarters and then started showcasing his signature gliding layups and near-basket floaters in the third. He almost blew past every defender, gesturing "too small" to Alvarado, laying it up over defensive player Herbert Jones. On the final play, he drove from the backcourt, bypassed the screen, and floated a shot over Jones, Murphy, and Daniels—off the backboard, into the basket, buzzer beater. This was Morant’s first career buzzer-beater. Interestingly, after the shot, even the Grizzlies players on the court paused for a second before realizing they had won, with Bane even freezing at the three-point line. I understand Bane. In the first 25 games, the Grizzlies didn’t have such clutch play; this was a moment where a superstar wielded his superpower. https://preview.redd.it/ivoxez05md1d1.png?width=1200&format=png&auto=webp&s=88313b44ea6967be3578b9d99f8eadcbd450a207 Morant posted the highest points for a player returning after missing more than 25 games in history, but more thrilling for fans was that the Grizzlies truly became competitive. They quickly won four in a row, beating the hot Haliburton, Trae, and Wemby, and winning twice against the Pelicans on the road. Bane and JJJ were in great form, and Smart’s fourth-quarter lockdown on Ingram was impressive. With the return of injured players, we began to calculate and discuss the Grizzlies' playoff prospects. Morant caught the flu and missed one game, played poorly in the next two—nothing to say as I was also down with the flu—recovered, and then convincingly defeated Bron and AD’s Lakers on the road. Smart scored 29 points (including a ton of threes), Morant’s scattered scoring and assists, JJJ turned into Curry, and Bane turned the arena into a library with a series of off-the-dribble threes in the fourth quarter. After the game, Nemo and JJJ sat on the scorer’s table for an ESPN interview: "You’re making a playoff push, what’s your plan?" https://preview.redd.it/mddc8fv8md1d1.png?width=2182&format=png&auto=webp&s=865924dab3881c277783c53a5f40acf1a53504b3 Jaren smiled lightly, and Nemo said, "Keep playing like this, 48 minutes of relentless effort every night, execute our signature defense, move the ball, and everyone being on point. Tonight, we had many guys scoring 20+, like Z. Keep this up, and we’ll be dangerous." We didn’t see Nemo play again; a few days later, he was diagnosed with a torn labrum and was out for the season; two games later, Smart dislocated his finger and was out for the season; another two games, Bane went down, and the season was over. The DawnJust two weeks after hope reignited, it was extinguished. What was left to see this season? I believe every Grizzlies fan asked themselves this question. At this point, you have to appreciate the basketball gods; when they close one door, they really do open another. ——Back on December 1, with no one available, TJ put Vince Williams into the rotation. As last year’s 47th pick, his rookie year saw no meaningful time, mainly playing in the G League. In the limited effective game sample, we considered him a wing “shooter” who couldn’t handle the ball or defend well—he hadn’t even shot well in Summer League. In his first effective NBA game, Vince scored 15 points on 6-of-9 shooting, adding nine rebounds. He stayed on in the fourth quarter, impressively defending Irving. The Grizzlies secured their fifth win of the season. Ten days later, facing the Mavericks again, this time he had to guard Luka, averaging 34 points. No one expected him to complete the task, nor should he, but he did great—the Grizzlies almost erased a 17-point deficit, forcing Luka to 4-of-12 shooting in the second half. They even exchanged trash talk during the game, but after the game, Luka said: "I think he’s a great defender." When Luka Doncic calls you a "great" defender, you must be a "very, very, very great" defender. https://preview.redd.it/6jn2grnbmd1d1.png?width=1919&format=png&auto=webp&s=566c59c5549e34a61c450230a88500215b38de49 Vince started the next game. Although he had some ups and downs briefly after Morant’s return, he quickly adjusted. He scored 19+9 against the Suns’ big three, limiting Durant; next time facing Luka, he won again (Luka 9-of-21); he scored 24+7 against the Warriors, winning, and in the win over the Heat, he outperformed Butler (25 points, JB 15 points). Just as we were marveling at his offensive and defensive performances, his pre-All-Star break streak showed us even more potential. Starting from February 8 against the Bulls, he averaged 14+7+8+2 steals over five consecutive games, including an 18+12+7 performance against Lillard/Giannis’ Bucks. He limited Lillard to 7-of-21 shooting and helped disrupt Lillard’s three-point attempt in the final moments. What, Vince can also moonlight as a point guard? The Grizzlies converted his contract in January to a three-year, $7.9 million deal with an option. Considering his versatility and level of play, this contract is so low it’s almost insulting. But if you think that’s exaggerated, wait, there’s more. https://preview.redd.it/wjpaxgqcmd1d1.png?width=1920&format=png&auto=webp&s=0352543f4be22abad934a7d796e6968d91e40156 ——When GG Jackson was drafted, few Grizzlies fans who knew about him were optimistic. Their reasons were solid: GG wasn’t even 19 when drafted, too young; he skipped a grade to play a dismal season at South Carolina, shooting 38%, looking like a chucker; he had publicly criticized teammates, posing a locker room cancer risk. These might be true, but I only learned about him after he was drafted—watching him tearfully talk to ZK on a call, watching his college highlight reels showcasing his versatile offensive skills and confidence, his enviable physique, these on-court aspects captivated me. I followed his performance throughout Summer League, and his smooth catch-and-shoot and diligent defensive footwork made me even more optimistic about his future. At the time, I was probably the only one publicly praising him. I voiced my support in every platform I had—podcasts, Weibo, even the comment section of the pay raise public account: Check out GG! He has a chance to enter the rotation! For the first half of the season, he barely played, putting up numbers in the G League. On January 13, 2024, with Nemo, Bane, and Smart all out, TJ had no choice but to put GG into the rotation, giving him 27 minutes. In his first effective NBA game, GG scored 20 points on 9-of-14 shooting; the next game against the Warriors, 23 points. He became the second-youngest in history to score 20+ in consecutive games, only behind Bron—TNT’s crew warmly greeted him on national television: Shaq: "I have nothing to say; I just want to congratulate you: now people know who you are." https://preview.redd.it/a22gjp4emd1d1.png?width=2248&format=png&auto=webp&s=1a59bc946a230ddb2108716ff9253ecc05c6592f GG looked both excited and nervous, reminding me of my freshman year. This is the genuine reaction of a kid this age when they’ve done something remarkable and are publicly praised for it. This wasn’t the last time. With Vince injured, GG became my sole motivation to watch the last third of the season. In 42 effective games, he averaged 16.4 points and 4.5 rebounds, hitting 36% of his shots, averaging 2.4 three-pointers per game. He scored 20+ in 12 games, 30+ in three, and posted 44+12 against a full-strength Nuggets in the final game. If GG had entered the rotation earlier, could he have made the All-Rookie First Team? Quite possibly, as he’s a natural scorer who excels in big moments and national broadcasts (how rare is this for the youngest player in the league?). His other contributions in games were limited, but considering the Grizzlies’ environment, their league-worst offense, the pressure he faced, and the difficulty of his scoring might have been greatly underestimated. GG dropped 31 points against a full-strength Lakers, almost the only player able to initiate scoring, making a top-five play dunk over Rui Hachimura. How many All-Rookie votes will he get? https://preview.redd.it/7obss9rfmd1d1.png?width=1600&format=png&auto=webp&s=dbe5d862cf5b5ca1ace44b70eabd533933563b5d Two experts stood with me: ESPN’s Bobby Marks placed GG in his All-Rookie Second Team a week ago, and The Ringer’s Bill Simmons said he would vote GG for Rookie of the Year in a podcast two days ago. Regardless, GG has earned respect. And for Grizzlies fans, even better news is that the team converted his contract to a four-year, $8.5 million deal with a fourth-year team option in February. As a Reddit Grizzlies fan put it, "This is Pippen contract level theft." Vince and GG, two second-round picks, played convincingly in ways no one expected. The Grizzlies have locked them in on affordable long-term contracts for at least three years, and they will undoubtedly be key rotation or even starting players for the Grizzlies next season—what did the Grizzlies trade to acquire them? Zero. Praying to the Basketball GodsThough Grizzlies fans' moods might be 1,000 times better than three months ago, this remains a completely wasted season. For a young team that matched up against the champions two years ago, this isn’t good. The Grizzlies still have plenty of draft picks, but their salary cap is tight. Their core 3 is still young and talented, but two other young core teams—at least the Timberwolves and Thunder—are ready. The Grizzlies are nowhere near their position two years ago. But this "wasted" season allowed them to eliminate many wrong options and secure several key players. Even if the offseason only brings an average starting center, their roster strength is very, very solid (I don’t think any current team could consistently beat a healthy 2024 Grizzlies). They maintained high defensive levels, forced turnovers, and blocks with many non-NBA players, and they possess better three-point shooting than the past two years. They can replicate the 2022 season's performance, and that’s a conservative estimate. https://preview.redd.it/xxiop63hmd1d1.png?width=1440&format=png&auto=webp&s=951528875c8ab351023e1f588ad3837f4c0d6661 But can they stay healthy? In 2022, Dillon played only 32 games and was out of sorts in the playoffs, with Morant also injured midway; in 2023, key players were in and out, losing inside reserves to the Lakers in a seven-game upset; this year, the entire team suffered the worst injury wave in NBA history. Like the Clippers in recent years, injuries are the easiest topic to discuss without being wrong because no one can control them, and they always happen. So, I can only pray to the basketball gods: it can’t get worse than this. I desperately want to see a fully healthy Morant-Bane-Jaren Grizzlies team play a playoff series, even if they are easily beaten by a better team. I don’t want to look back years later and be left with a pile of "what ifs." |
