At first listen, The Practice of Love, Jenny Hval's seventh full-length album, unspools with an almost deceptive ease. Across eight tracks, filled with arpeggiated synth washes and the kind of lilting beats that might have drifted, loose and unmoored, from some forgotten mid-'90s trance single, The Practice of Love feels, first and foremost, compellingly humane. Given the horror and viscera of her previous album, 2016's Blood Bitch, The Practice of Love is almost subversive in it's gentleness-a deep dive into what it means to grow older, to question one's relationship to the earth and one's self, and to hold a magnifying glass over the notion of what intimacy can mean. As Hval describes it, the album charts it's own particular geography, a landscape in which multiple voices engage and disperse, and the question of connectedness-or lack thereof-hangs suspended in the architecture of every song. It is an album about "seeing things from above-almost like looking straight down into the ground, all of these vibrant forest landscapes, the type of nature where you might find a porn magazine at a certain place in the woods and everyone would know where it was, but even that would just become rotting paper, eventually melting into the ground." Prompted by an urge to find a different kind of language to express what she was feeling, the songs on Love unfurl like an interior dialogue involving several voices. Friends and collaborators Vivian Wang, Laura Jean Englert, and Felicia Atkinson surface on various tracks, via contributed vocals or through bits of recorded conversation, which further posits the record itself as a kind of ongoing discourse. "The last thing I wrote, which was my new book, had quite an angry voice," says Hval, "The voice of an angry teenager, furious at the hierarchies. Perhaps this album rediscovers that same voice 20 years later. Not so angry anymore, but still feeling apart from the mainstream, trying to find their place and their community. With that voice, I wanted to push my writing practice further, writing something that was multilayered, a community of voices, stories about both myself and others simultaneously, or about someone's place in the world and within art history at the same time. I wanted to develop this new multi-tracked writing voice and take it to a positive, beautiful pop song place... A place which also sounds like a huge pile of earth that I'm about to bury my coffin in."

Good set of clubs for beginners to find out if golf is their game! You'll need a putter, though.
Hand Orientation: Right, Color: Blue/Black
This nice inexpensive set is great for a beginner at golf, which is me--never played before. I don't evem know if I'm going to like playing, but at least I have a set of clubs so that I can give it a try...it's the exercise from walking the course that appeals to me. My son says he can teach me, even using mens clubs. I figure if I like the game, I can get a nicer set of ladies clubs and pass this set to my grandson. If I don't like the game, I can still pass the set along to my grandson! My son thought these clubs were decent weight and quality and well worth the price...the only thing missing was a putter, but we found a cheaper one to add to the set.

Solid Paddle Solid Price
Color: Blue*1
I am a beginner with Pickleball. However, I started using a $5 from 5 below and this paddle was a huge upgrade.
The grip felt really good, solid in my hand with a little cushion. It was a solid and much sturdier than the previous paddle. This was a small investment in a great hobby that anyone can enjoy. I also think they really take care of you by giving you a case so it does not get scratched. I highly recommend.
There truly was no downside I could think of to getting this. If you are a beginner like me, its a quality paddle at a quality price. no brainer

Just what you need!
Color: Green Black*4, Color: Green Black*4
This set is just what we needed for the 4 of us to play a nice game of pickleball. The quality is good, the carrying case keeps it all organized, and we keep it conveniently in the trunk of our car. It’s held up well even though it’s taken some beatings. Unless you’re a professional, it’s just what you need! Nice grip, handle is the right size, the weight is light; making it easy to use, and it’s created no issues with gameplay. Great deal for good quality equipment!

Pickleball Pandemonium: A Hilarious Mother’s Day Misadventure with a Top-Notch Paddle Set
Color: Blue*4
Let me spin you a tale of how I, the hopeful boyfriend of my girlfriend with two adorable-but-feral nieces, ages 3 and 5, tried to be the cool guy on Mother’s Day with this USAPA-approved fiberglass pickleball set. Spoiler: it was less “heartwarming family moment” and more “backyard dodgeball with extra chaos.” This set, though? Absolute gold for adults—just don’t hand it to toddlers unless you’re ready to star in a slapstick comedy.
So, picture me, all bright-eyed, pulling out this slick pickleball set at my girlfriend’s sister’s place. The kit comes with paddles, balls, and a good-quality case that’s sturdy enough to survive a trip through an airport baggage claim. I’m thinking I’ll set up a mini court, show the nieces what pickleball’s all about, and maybe earn some “best boyfriend” points. In my head, it’s all slow-mo high-fives and cute kid giggles. In reality? I handed those paddles to the girls, and it was like arming gremlins with medieval weaponry.
These paddles are *chef’s kiss* for grown-ups. The fiberglass surface gives a satisfying pop when you hit the ball, and the handles? Oh, they feel nice—comfy grips with just the right amount of cushion, like shaking hands with a friendly lumberjack. Plus, they’ve got some good weight to them—not so heavy you’re winded, but enough heft to feel like you’re swinging something legit. The balls are what you’d expect: standard, bouncy, perforated orbs that do their job without any surprises. But for kids? Disaster. The 5-year-old, who I’m calling Paddle-Wielding Warlord, grabs her paddle and swings it like she’s auditioning for *Gladiator*. First shot, she nearly takes out her 3-year-old sister, Tiny Catapult, who’s just vibing with her own paddle. I’m ducking near-headshots, yelling, “Gentle! Gentle!” while my girlfriend’s cackling so hard she’s got tears.
Then there’s the ball situation. I lob one softly, thinking they’ll tap it back. Nope. Warlord yeets it across the yard like she’s gunning for the moon. It’s gone—probably chilling in the neighbor’s birdbath. Tiny Catapult, not one to be outdone, hurls her entire paddle, which spins through the air like a rogue frisbee. Flowerpots are in peril, my girlfriend’s sister is shouting about her azaleas, and I’m just trying to keep the nieces from turning this into a full-on demolition derby. The case, bless its durable heart, sat there safely holding the spare balls, mocking my poor life choices.
Later, when the kids were safely bribed with ice cream and the adults got a turn, the set shone. My girlfriend and I rallied in the driveway, and those paddles felt like an extension of my arm—smooth, balanced, and ready for action. The USAPA approval means you could take these to a real court and not look like a chump. But for the toddler crowd? Yikes. Get those foam kiddie paddles that can’t double as blunt objects. This set’s a 10/10 for adult fun, with a bomb-proof case and gear that feels pro-level. Just don’t expect the under-6 crew to do anything but turn your yard into a *Mad Max* reenactment.

Great for the amateur player
Color: Black*2
Good paddles, especially for people new to the game. Much better than the mediocre padel’s and not far off from the carbon fiber ones.
