If you haven't read the series already, don't forget to agonize over the choice of book first or show first as if there could be a wrong answer in this case.

Are you from the future? If so, please tell the production team that I 100% appreciate their decision to let the cast age naturally for seasons 7-9. A brave choice that (apparently!) paid off.

How have I gone this long without enabling ublock origin's "annoyance" filters? See you later, log in with google nag.

Ok, tears for fears. This has to mean a goal, right?

And of course The Cure gets us number three.

Reptilia for the Lavelle goal. Good to know that the team is good enough to overcome the early 2000’s.

The bar I’m at put the Aquabats on just before that last Girma goal. Causal.

This is going to be amazing.

Mamdani: When I ran for mayor, I said I was going to tax the rich

Well, today we're taxing the rich...

I was at a sleepover when I was seven and they put on Fast Times. Wat.

Okay CTA. This is a good sign.

Looks like Paris-Roubaix is going to have a pretty great finish.

You know you’re in Pasadena when the bar has Artemis II splashdown on multiple screens.

We just need a red card against the Reign for the win, right? (But also, when’s ACFC at Reign? Still need to see /some/ match with you.)

Happy Sunday night. First loss of the year stings, but when it’s away against a quality squad with Marta on it, it stings less. And still top 4 with a game in hand? I’ll take it! Next game vs Portland should be great. Can’t wait!

I got my olympic ticket allocation time slot today. Clearly I should focus on events that I can bike to from my house. (Sad that they moved the MTB events to from Puddingstone, but the course in Industry is still close enough.)

this is so much fun. Rocket launchers feel so different when it's "thing American public did together with their tax dollars and their government scientists" vs. "erratic billionaires with plans to replace us all with AI are lobbing more rich people or profit-making satellite into space"

It's Sunday night, Orlando and Gotham are all done and it's time for the weekly post. Still very early, but top of the table with a game in hand is pretty fun. Houston played the better game on Friday, but ACFC capitalized on some missed opportunities and got the win. Orlando this week. ¡Volemos!

Nice.

Ok I like this second half a lot more.

Ok, that first half was aaaaaaaaaalllllll Houston, but they’re only up by one. Let’s see some adjustments for the second half, coach.

Pretty great of ACFC to help plan a whole season of date nights with my sweetie.

Match night! @angelcity.com hosting @houstondash.com

I don't think people fully appreciate how apocalyptic things are for US science. I haven't had any new funding since 2024, but I'm still ok since typical grants are for three years. This means next year I will be completely out of funding and will have to fire everyone in the lab. It's not great.

BREAKING: Just five minutes before Trump's announcement to halt the attacks on Iran, massive trades hit the market.

$1.5 billion in S&P 500 (ES) futures was bought while $192 million in oil (CL) futures was sold.

These orders were 4–6x larger than anything else.

They made huge gains.

Unusual.

Sure, it's only two weeks and ACFC hasn't played any of last season's top teams yet, but it's still nice to see them at the top of the table. Really looking forward to Houston this Friday.

Savy coming on the field really was a great moment. That sort of crowd reaction is why you go to the game instead of watching on TV. That she did this just short while later was perfect.

The NWSL table after one week of play. ACFC leads with three points and a goal differential of four.

Sure, it's only one week, but it's nice to be at the top of the table for a change :)
