So I agree with a lot of your player assessments but I still don't see how the defensive side is going to improve without further player acquisitions. Werner offering more against the ball vs. Chicho is a start but only a small piece of the equation?

fyp: *while* they are in prison. the rest is an "if", not "when".

Might be more a case of RB Omiya inventing a title for Hamada to get his feet wet in the front office. Note that Hamada is a native Californian and English speaker (involved in the US youth setup at one point) so I wonder if the job involves interfacing with other RB clubs.

yeah you even see female athletes posting tons of content with their female SO and their fans are just like…wow!! what a beautiful (platonic) friendship! idk if this is a *wink wink* thing or like willful denial.

it’s really nice to see warm congratulations pouring into his feed from fans and former teammates. japanese fans of women’s sports often seem willfully or obliviously ignorant to queer athletes?

My theory is that we need a Democratic Trump in the narrow sense of being unvarnished and comical instead of being uptight and/or decrepit. Newsom is cosplaying a weird resistlib version I guess?

Stefanick’s campaign proved to be more pathΓ©tique than eroica. But if you asked her why she dropped out, she’d probably plead the fifth.

i wonder if there is any literature on how rich people used to be big on supporting the arts but newer generations of billionaires dgaf. granted old money has more leisure time to devote but feels like there is a cultural explanation at play too

seems like a perfectly sensible hire given his track record. Not sure they needed to bid against themselves and pay the dude 6 oku/yr but idc about MickeyBucks

Once I delayed my resignation date from a job so that I quit the same day the company rolled out a $3k "enrichment" budget, which I managed to spend in a single day

I feel like Biden did kinda capture that demo only because he himself seemed kinda dumb. Ideally you want to do this without being actually dumb

this is kinda wild bc they prominently advertise HVAC installation services (Lennox equipment) in their services corner. also interesting that they seem to intentionally avoid calling it a "heat pump" everywhere

pulling the music degree card automatically earns you the fraud label. Almost as bad as putting "born with perfect pitch" on your bio

Wikipedia screenshot: FrantiΕ‘ek Kočvara, known later in England as Frantisek Kotzwara (1730[1] – September 2, 1791[2][3]), was a Czech violist,[1] virtuoso double bassist and composer.

His death was one of the first recorded instances of death by erotic asphyxiation.

Typical violist death

Japan has this problem with manufactured anti-EV propaganda and it annoys the shit out of me. Sure it’s not an easy economy to decarbonize but they should get their shit together

Frontale failing to qualify for the 2020 ACL bubble tournament was a sort of sliding doors moment. I think about that a lot.

Hasebe sure made some ballsy calls. Throwing Kanda and Ozeki out to buy time for the tired vets, while cutting off Brozović's supply isn't a card Oniki had up his sleeve.

generally best to reserve any kind of sit down meal in Kyoto, not just kaiseki/course dinners. easier to wing it for lunch

in Tokyo: any kind of show/experience/game. more flexibility with dining on the fly
