I saw my school picture for this year and have decided that I want the old Barbara Walters lighting for my school pictures. That HD shit sucks. It makes me look old, which I am NOT. Let’s get Glamour Shots in here next year.

@edsbs.bsky.social My grandmother, a two-time widow and massive Bridge fanatic, once told a 12 year-old me, “The only man under whose bed I would put my shoes is Omar Shariff.” When she said this, she was in her late 70’s, only wore house coats, and had both an oxygen tank and a hunchback.

I know I am late to the party on the Odyssey discourse, but this morning was the first real opportunity I had to see it. That was just the Iliad in disguise

And a Latin teacher friend of mine smartly said that Odysseus reminded her a bit more of Aeneas than Odysseus himself. I like that analysis. He was unsure. Vascillating. Sometimes confident, sometimes confused, sometimes tender, sometimes stolid, and struggling with the role of leadership.

Rooting Rules for the World Cup: Decision 1: Were you a colonizer or colony? If colony, I root for you Decision 2A: If you were both colonizers, do you still have royalty? If no, I root for you Decision 2B: If you were both colonies, then we go on vibes and/or chances to actually beat a colonizer

Before each game, they should develop a graphic with scores out of 10 for each team in the following areas: Athleticism: Size: Finishing: Passing: Defense: Organization: Depth: Ambition: Shithousery:

Just had my last class with kids I’ve taught for 4 years and I am a sobbing mess. I am so proud of them and will miss them sooooooooo much. I’m sure all my fellow “one teacher programs” are feeling the same thing this time of year. #Latin

Nothing like falling asleep on the couch during the 1st quarter of a west coast playoff game, only to wake up at 11:30 and get sucked into the second half of that playoff game. Good luck getting back to sleep, middle aged man.

I love the NBA but there are two things they have to fix 1) Too many 3’s. I get that they make math sense, but watching Andre Drummond and Time Lord take turns shooting corner 3’s is just not what I’m here for. 2) The forearm shove that Tatum, Brown, and Shai use on every drive. It is a foul.

@mattpt55.bsky.social Could the fact that the cars aren’t always taking the high speed corners at the highest speed possible actually be helping the ‘racing’ because the outwash isn’t as devastating when you aren’t on the edge? If that is the case….isnt this actually good?

@spannersready.bsky.social Can F1 set budgets so that the pots of money must be used on a specific season’s car? I’m really annoyed by the “we are putting all our money and time into 2026” when it is 2024. There should be a dedicated budget for the current season and another for future development.

Williams and Aston have been telling us for 3 years that they are putting everything towards 2026, and yet here we are and they seem to be nowhere. Either 1) They were lying 2) They are Ponzi Schemes 3) They are incompetent.

Nothing in sports makes me more insane than the stutter step penalty. It is illegal and just never ever called. Also, a saved penalty should be an immediate goal kick. Give the goalkeeper a break
