It’s not high literature, but I enjoyed the FUCK out of the Dungeon Crawler Carl series so far. It fits under litRPG, so essentially fiction that reads as if it’s in an rpg type game. I enjoy it because it’s completely unpredictable, funny, violent, and extremely humanist. The audio books are ...

Genuine question, what do the heftier boys play as a sport in non football or rugby playing countries like Germany?

Don’t the Germans dominate those strongman things?

Isn’t that more Scandinavians and baltics? Besides that, I’m talking more about young men. I ...

England are gonna win this. France have been terribly sloppy and kept England in it.

Will honestly be a shock if anyone comes close to the French in this six nations, but it certainly won’t be Wales. They are crap.

As a thought exercise, think through how a foreign asset, hell bent on destroying the US as a global and economic power, would go about it.

Mine was three weeks ago, and my heart still feels funky. I never felt that until covid.

Don’t wanna be conspiratorial, but are any of your areas having a huge brutal sickness hitting lots of people? Two separate acquaintances have passed away in the last six weeks. For both funerals they were able to book a church only after two weeks because of backlog. I caught something three weeks ...

Honestly right now we are all bitches. Even expats.

I use an app called sports tracker. I’ll use my garmin sometimes too, but sports tracker gives me the speed profile like this. Here’s my morning yesterday. The app says I hit 64 but I don’t believe it was that fast. We were down a really steep black and had to have speed to make an uphill transition ...

According to my phone tracker I hit 50mph at one point yesterday which is a new record for me. The skis i bought are long turn, so I’m working on carving at speed. I don’t like skiing off-piste because I’m not good enough yet and I don’t want to injure myself. But hauling ass down steep slopes is ...

Holy shit, one of the craziest sports trades of my lifetime.

I shredded some singletrack with my parents just last fall. (I fell once.)

I skied with my mom last year and I'm probably going to do it again next month. She's 85!

Does she see out of both eyes? I’d ski again in a heartbeat if I didn’t have that issue/concern.

But skiing at 85 is ...

Not NHL, but at the Grenoble v Bordeaux hockey tonight. Grenoble are top of the table, Bordeaux are third. In a marvelous case of nominative determinism, the Bordeaux goalie’s last name is Papillon, butterfly in French.

The Grenoble team is called Les Breulers des Loups. Which translates roughly to ...

So Elon definitely did it for ‘the lolz’ but then he also does all the pepe and kek bullshit for lolz and eventually you have to just assume that he does think that way. It’s honestly shocking to me that congress isn’t starting to think that they need to maybe have a little competition for starlink ...

Yeah, soccer is the one sport where I absolutely wouldn't turn off the sound. I've learned far too many terms in the past decade that I absolutely love. Just like banging my toe on the counter and yelling "I've picked up a knock" and dumb shit like that.

I like decent British commentary, but ...

Fuck me, some of the worst people alive are so happy right now. Plus all the trump stuff.

My local cable package gives me access to Canal+ epl coverage. They have the nice option of just turning off commentary and only having crowd/game noise. It’s a really nice way to watch.

2) I was often REALLY surprised by some of the overlooks and paths we saw in the parks we visited in Utah last year. Like... There's nothing between you and a 500-foot drop in a place like, well... All of them, really. Bryce seemed to have the most "normal" walled-off overlooks, but ...

So, we had a dear friend die in an absolutely horrible manner yesterday. Obviously tough to process so might as well share and talk where I can.

In France, where people retire earlier and live longer, there are organizations for retired people to do activities. Things like organized hiking trips ...

You guys are overthinking it. Its coaching. The Missouri Valley is the SEC of FCS.

Sure, good teams have good coaches, but that doesn't explain why the northern plains somehow attracted these good coaches. The SEC gets good coaches because the programs have a ton of interest, a ton of money ...

The shift on Twitter has been noticeable too. Elon has turned on his bot generators; I’m averaging a new follower every 10-12 hours, all of them have zero posts.

Why is Belichek wearing a Croatian flag?

I assume from the name he’s Croatian, but is there a reason he’s showing the flag today? Is there yet another war I missed?

Seen it on other coaches too this season for other countries. Certain you are right on Belichek’s ancestry. Think it’s a league ...

Hate to sayI told you so.

Better news from vet this morning. He did well last night and is much more comfortable today. They’ve already taken him off the pain med drip.

Good luck, but you may have to rename him "tsar" now .

Also ... "Tan".

It’s front left so ank might be more appropriate.

Thanks all. He made it through surgery but is in a lot of pain. They removed his lymph nodes too as they were quite swollen. Not a good sign for metastasization, but it ...

So, we met with the oncologist and dropped Tank off for amputation yesterday. Leg and shoulder will be removed sometime this afternoon. Oncologist is optimistic because his scan showed no cancer anywhere else but the shoulder. If it IS osteosarcoma, it’s almost certain it will come back. He will go ...

So, we brought both of our pups (Tank, 7 y/o lab and Belle ?y/o Aussie cattle dog- her age is ? because she’s an adopted stray, vet thinks 8/9) with us to France.
