Lots of folks want to have a gotcha, "did you know: America has always had corruption!" No shit. But did you know: a huge reason millions of people came to this country was because it was *better* at things like the rule of law and not being openly corrupt. For real. bsky.app/profile/anil...
as good as they uh, can be
hallelujah he is risen
(hope you are well, my friend)
lots of excellent touches to this local desi gay wedding but my favourite detail, by some distance, is the officiant being a desi drag queen named RuAfza. π shit. 16/10, no notes.

crazy that we have the level of talent in our ranks to be sort of holding onto the series and winning the occasional test even with these unbalanced XIs, questionable selections and tactics and drama. imagine what can be achieved by a competent coach playing a sensible XI
besides, not sure that a guy who tries to win tests by sacrificing bowling depth for top-heavy XIs can even be said to understand cricket, let alone be qualified to coach a test team
100%, I have been yelling about his unsuitability as a leader and mentor since the day he was first rumoured, and that was when Rohit/virat/Ashwin were still around. If anything, the loss of those 3 makes it even more important for gambhir to be neutralised
GG was explicitly stated as being safe for now, supposedly because no one wants a change at the top with a team in transition
did you see the report that says a review is basically assured after this tour⦠but only morkel and tendo are in danger, as are a couple of the selectors
to hear sitanshu kotak tell it, there was likely a genuine issue with the groundsman being unreasonable. but of course GG has to barrel in, in the most grossly inappropriate way imaginable, surrendering whatever little high ground the team may have
a-grade asshole
i have still not forgiven the conniving bastard for the toss piss-take in the 2011 world cup final and do not believe that i will ever do so in my lifetime
sanga being alongside the king of spain in menswear guy's fit pantheon might be cricket's greatest moment on the global stage
* core dump memories
and who can blame them
arshdeep arshdeep arshdeep. arshdeep must be given a shot
but who are we kidding, they will scapegoat siraj and one guy will find a way to shoehorn harshit into the XI

oh no you don't! claim them for NYC, I mean.
madras dosa co is owned by flying lion hospitality, from boston.
they own a crazy number of concepts around these parts, all 21st c. takes on indian cuisine
some scammers have a dataset associating numbers with places and name the local toll system based on that. i get scam texts naming EZ pass MA specifically, despite my number having a non-local area code
this is a recent national scam, it is not NYC specific. MA eliminated tollbooths nearly a decade ago, we also started getting these texts only recently. i've seen texts from other places too.
gaurav don't you have an elaborate meal to cook, preferably one that has a lot of steps and allows for no downtime to do a quick post
ah, you meant the F-35s were coming to westfield, not the KC-46. the F-35s i saw today were likely nowhere near their limits, they were gently strolling over fenway park. that's another reason why you shouldn't look to my opinion on the noise :)
loud like someone else said, but I was up on my roof specifically to watch this, plus they were flying very low on purpose. if you're asking how you'll find living next to them, you'll probably have a very different experience
yeah I don't get to pull up ADSB during work as often as I want to. I think I'm a bit too far inland to see an Otis to Portsmouth convoy shadowing (didn't know that was a thing)
