Things I like; Arsenal, my family pets, your family pets, making my coworkers feel bad for interrupting my exotic vacation adventures to help fill in when I’m actually just at home.

Possibly jumping the gun here but I’m speaking from the experience of seeing people I went to HS with: Gen Z, do NOT enlist Do not do it You’re not fighting for freedom. They’re gonna use you up for their war and discard you like an old broken toy. Don’t do it

They’re going to try to make you feel insane for opposing this war. They’ll ignore protests and downplay any opposition. They’ll try to strongarm you into submission. They did it with Iraq and they’ll do it again. And then a few years later they’ll pretend they were with you all along.

Can I put in a word to the American Pope for my Jesus wishes? God please make him drop dead this very second. And also all of the other ones I don’t like thank you amen.

The racism is off the charts with this regime.

Alexi Lalas pronounces Saliba as “Solly-bah”. Why can’t the American commentators and pundits PRONOUCIATE NAMES CORRECTLY?! Please man. Learn the names.

Idk why anyone would stay in an Airbnb. Do they not know that hotels have ice machines? Endless ice, perfect for crunching.

If that woman tells you her hobbies are going to the movies alone and going to the library just know she’s going to drop you at the first sign of any bullshit. A woman that knows peace don’t fear loneliness

amtrak’s marketing team gets it

I’ll say a nice thing about Chelsea. I liked their white kit today. Very nice. Spurs should take notes.

Chelsea forgot they weren’t playing in the UECL today. Flamengo is a serious team.

Robert Sanchez buddy. The bench is calling for you.

Chelsea. Melt. Down. Atrocious defending folks.

Well Chelsea found out about Ivan Barton. He’s awful and would fit in perfectly with PGMOL referees. Btw Anthony Taylor has graced the CWC with his spectacular refereeing skills. They have a lot in common, Anthony and Ivan…

I hope Flamengo win the whole thing Jorgi deserves it.

okay and here is my ‘sounds like a shitpost but it’s genuine’ UK heatwave tip: if there is a Saxon or Norman church near you, and it’s open, go sit in it. not gothic, they have too many windows, get you some thick stone walls with some high up tiny windows. they stay cold. and you can just sit there

I told myself I’d never rewatch the City v Arsenal 2-2 match and yet…

It’s your morning Space Needle

Tifo

Sergio Ramos threw out the first pitch at a Dodgers game! Awww he did good.

Omg Anthony Taylor is reffing in the CWC. This guy…

I haven’t seen an Arsenal jersey in the wild until today. Probably going to CWC Sounders vs Atleti but nice to see a random person supporting the club here. Sometimes I feel like I’m in an Arsenal desert.

The US has denied the visas of all 12 members of the Senegalese women’s basketball team who were scheduled to travel to the country as part of their preparation for the Afrobasket tournament that begins in August. Afrobasket is also the African qualifiers for the Olympics. #wnba

Even though I work in a basement floor with no windows look what engineering deigned to give us?! I feel the fresh breeze on my face already! It should be rain though.

Comms asking why the ref blew the whistle if he’s not giving a card? Because it’s just a foul buddy. Even I know that and I’m not very smart about football rules.

“What is common knowledge in your field, but shocks outsiders?” Most drugs have several activities in the human body, and discovery of these effects goes on for years after they are on the market.

America is one of those countries where if you host a global sporting event, inclusive messages have to be censored to so as not to anger the central government. In this case the message is “racism is bad” www.nytimes.com/athletic/643...

North Korea out there calling balls and strikes.

Absolute scum organisation.

Jorgi played!

In other news, Saudi Arabia, which has done as much as anyone to ensure the financial success of Club World Cup for FIFA, has executed a journalist, who was tried in secret, and sentenced to death over what activists say were tweets critical of the regime.

As the end-of-the-line person who treats poisonings & answers questions about poison, I use chemical sunscreen every day & would not use this product because it’s just a scam. No commercially-available sunscreens are “poison/poisonous” no matter what influencers say to get you to buy their products.

Found out my coworker just got covid for the first time this past week. Btw we work in a hospital. Congrats to him for lasting this long. He’s okay now but said his whole body ached and was in pain in his joints more than anything. We’re getting more cases again…

So is DAZN pronounced DOZEN?

Well well well. The Sounders are making a go of it and they got a goal back. Way to put up a fight guys.

Is this fun to watch? I don’t think so and I’ll bet it’ll be pretty similar for some other teams to come. One of the best teams in the world vs a semi-pro team. What a shit thing to do.

Proud to have been in this crowd estimated at 70000. This is Cal Anderson Park in Seattle. During my hours there I never saw a police presence. Right on!
