Pickford isn't good enough with the ball at his feet to play for many teams--even some of the teams around them in the table try to play out from the back.

hahahahaha

Iron Islands Drowned God style?

It was interesting to see Johnson demanding Biden call out the national guard to deal with these student protests. It's always worked so well in the past.

Rebel Moon 2 When it got to the point they were winnowing grain in slow motion, I figured it had to be the most expensive piss-take in movie history. Got a bit better/less unintentionally funny, but not much. 4 of 10? Meh. In order to restore my faith in American story-telling, I watched "No Country for Old Men" again. Just as good the sixth or seventh (or tenth?) time.

And in an effort to ease tensions, House speaker Mike Johnson will visit Columbia today. [<<<<< THIS IS SARCASM] Just another political football to be spun in whatever direction they think will cause the greatest outrage in their opponents. They are all cunts. Speaking of... Israel still going forward with their plan to somehow evacuate a million or more people into tents in the desert north of Rafah so they can destroy the city and kill whoever remains therein.

Not exactly a little thing, but didn't know where else to put it, and it definitely brightened my day: Passersby resccue a fellow from his burning car in Minnesota a couple of days ago. Men, women, white, black. I particularly love how all but one of them stay right in there when something explodes around the 34 second mark.

Leicester 2-0 vs Southampton. They look like they'll be back up. Should offer more of a challenge than the current three.

Why even show up? Gutless fucking cowards.

The eye-gouger can fuck right off.

1967: Israel, the War, and the Year that Transformed the Middle East by Tom Segev A detailed examination of the Six Days War, after which Israel annexed East Jerusalem, re-occupied the Gaza strip, and occupied the Golan heights and the West Bank. Deals almost exclusively with Israel, which is a limitation, but still an excellent book. In particular, the discussions of the top leadership before during and after the conflict. A book well worth reading if you want a better understanding of the modern world.

Appearing increasingly clear that those at the top have changed their minds on Ukraine. Taylor-Greene getting the Corbyn treatment now:

If the US and Germany/EU don't resume funding UNRWA, how will the Palestinians, in Gaza and elsewhere, survive? At least for the US, I think there is no chance that they resume funding, regardless of what happens going forward. Neither party will touch it. So the Palestinian refugees in Gaza are left to starve in the rubble, and those elsewhere, in Lebanon, Syria, Jordan and the West Bank, also face an uncertain future. I'm sure some in Israel, and elsewhere, will see that as a major victory, but will it lead to more violence or less?
