⚽️ The attack is not coming together at the moment. Just a little off. A little soft. A little hard.
⚽️ The stationary nerd in me wants to grab EtH and upgrade his BIC multi-pen (and whatever paper he is writing on). You deserve better.
⚽️ Close one for United. Glad for VAR for once.
⚽️ This is the big one…so early in the season. My prediction? 2:1 United.
@mike wabi sabi. Just change the way you’re thinking about it I guess. You now own a unique piece…
Finished reading: The Algebra of Happiness by Scott Galloway 📚
The perfect scoop. Lemon meringue from Zuzus.
Last days of summer.
@kaa Really unlucky result. Bad defending in two moments but chances taken away is just blah. Still team will bounce back.
⚽️ Really close game so far. Should have been ahead (or at least level at the moment). I hope they make a proper game of this and just go for it.
First day back at work. I feel refreshed and ready to go. Game face is on, let’s see how long I can keep my holiday calm in place.
Procreate’s Stance on generative AI. Straight to the point and totally on point. Love this company and both their products.
Finished reading: Shubeik Lubeik by Deena Mohamed 📚. Great summer read. Can totally understand the praise this work has received. Fantastically original, great scope, well written and drawn. Celebrating Arab culture as it is now (rather than as it was). Highly recommended.
Yes, People Do Buy Books. I also buy books, but nowhere near as much as I read and listen - mainly because of the insanely great public library system. To get into my personal collection, that book has to work overdrive. Thankfully there are those books, but they are the exception.
Just finished reading the first chapter of Shubeik Lubeik, and it was exceptional. Been a long time since I read a black and white comic with such emotional power.
⚽ I love Onana. Now Sancho messed it up…poor.
Summer in Ontario.
@manton I think the yearly security certification issue is happening again :). Me think you might want to find a way to automate that bastard...I could be completely wrong and it's just my site that is down....
⛈️ Damn is absolutely chucking it down today.
@JohnPhilpin there is a great video about this. all foul and rainwater overflows head into the seine. they built a tank to mitigate this. clearly it didnt work hard enough or there was too much rain. https://m.youtube.com/results?sp=mAEA&search_query=seine+river+olympics+2024+wsj
@mbkriegh this one is definitely on the monetary side, but also the freedoms that this brings with it. The book calls it f-you money :).
@dennyhenke Also like Blair (going into Iraq under completely false pretences) his legacy will be tainted by his actions - not that I give a shit about his legacy but change is made by those bold enough to make it happen.
@dennyhenke thats what infuriates me about my relationship with America (for reference my wife is half American). On the one hand I like Biden and can see the stability he has brought to the US in times of polarization.
On the other hand this is the man with the fucking keys and he’s supporting and enabling the daily systematic murder of innocents. The definition of schizophrenic.
@jthingelstad and it doesnt hang its hat in Minnesota :)
@jthingelstad cute, but there is only one United :).
@bryan yeah I hear that. Thankfully I’m not the hoarder (I have no sentimental attachment to stuff, but that wasn’t always the case). My wife however tries to keep some things which is ok I guess (but my view is that it’ll we will get rid of it at some point).
@skoobz its soo true. the officiating is also a little off (lets plenty of shit through).
@thestevepbrady went for an Addisdive field watch. Knew the bracelet was going to be garbage (it is), but the actual watch is great…except for the mechanism (that us Japanese) and didnt work for setting the date.
@numericcitizen sometimes availability is an issue, most times price is an issue, but options that tick these reasonably limited criteria is the most limiting factor.
@numericcitizen I’m looking for a reasonable summer break for the family (2weeks tops). Has a pool for the kids, is somewhere in nature (so dofferent to the concrete jungle we live in), and its not been an easy find at all. We’ve spent hours this weekend and havent gotten very far…
