Imagine the want ad: Qualifications: The ability to smile and shake hands. Preference given to those with experience operating comically large scissors.

And tracks back late in the game to break up a counter-attack when necessary.

That's a terrible tackle by Brewster. As for WHam they got exactly what they deserved. Go to the bottom club and play the same shite Moyes hit-on-the-counter-and-pray football.

My condolences to bossy beef and suzy as well. YNWA

Great play by Nunez. He don't quit.

Yeah, a bit of early pressure from them, then totally controlled the match and scored the goals. Textbook. And the cherry on top.

I think that dingo just ate your baby. Not just the scoring, but the link-up play, particularly recently.

AfD: Germans float ban on elected far-right party after scandal Austrian far-right activist Martin Sellner, who has previously been barred from the UK, is alleged to have presented the mass deportation "masterplan". It reportedly included details of moving people to a "model state" in North Africa that could provide space for up to two million people.

The last episode was like the last season of GoT: more a highlight show than anything else.

Ditto for me re Fargo S05. Just petered out--too long, too many characters, and no finish. Though the look on Hamm's face, right at the end, was absolutely perfect.

Right-wing pundit and former book-ban-supporter Bill O'Reilly hoist with his own petard: https://pen.org/conservative-commentator-bill-oreilly-hits-the-roof-over-his-books-being-banned-in-florida/

Mane scores Senegal's third in ET with a very nice finish vs Cameroon. Decent second half, Cameroon should have equalized a couple minutes earlier.

Barely gets a mention in the news. They've normalized their incompetence.

Has anyone done any research into their destination? Reading a book about the c. 2000 wars in the DRCongo, both of which were driven, in part, by Kagami and Rwanda. It doesn't make for pleasant reading. The idea of sending refugees to a place with such a history is unbelievable.

I used 25GJ of natural gas last January's billing period. This January? 14.5. Global warming for the win.

This must be the biggest money-earner by far for the federation (79m of 125m), so they're going to milk it for all it's worth. Every two years.

Madness. There was a 4-2 earlier, but it was never a contest.

Why didn't the Egyptian keeper extend his arms and stop that shot?

Well, fuck. Hopefully bad enough to keep him from trying to come back later half-crocked, but not so bad that he misses anything with LFC. Obviously.

Hope Sandoval from "Mazzy Star". Tony posted one of their videos here.

Though calling him "Cassius Clay" is definitely on message.

Cue William suddenly complaining about prostate problems.

They're tied, or Trump is up by 16%. https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/polls/new-hampshire/

Heard my first story on the situation on the ground in Gaza, complete with the voices of the victims of Israel's bombardment, on US media today. MSNBC, which is the leftmost of the networks, but one which, to this point, has been only covering the dispute, other than in the broadest details, from the pro-Israel side. Note: I'm not listening 24/7, and it might be that they, and others, have been doing these stories. But this is the first one I've heard, and I was struck by it, particularly the children's voices.
