Haji Wright's numbers at Coventry this season are hilarious, and exactly in line with what we've seen in this game

only touches the ball inside the penalty area, only shoots on goal when he touches the ball

why do anything else it's a simple game

I am simply not going to toast and grind cumin and coriander seeds on a Tuesday when I have already ground spices that taste fine. BFFR.

About every six weeks this recipe saves me. Save for the kale you can make it entirely out of your pantry and freezer; it tells you to toast the spices but I never do.

The protein shake I get at Costco is one of the ones with a safe amount of lead

Yeah they’ve gotten progressively weirder over the past couple months. This is the first one that has made me feel like I’m part of someone’s fetish, though.

"Sapiens" is so normal for the first 70,000 years of human history but then goes absolutely buckwild as soon as it gets to colonialism

Had the Aztecs and Incas shown a bit more interest in the world surrounding them - and had they known what the Spaniards had done to their neighbours - they might have resisted the Spanish conquest more keenly and successfully.

I think I might be kind of into the expanded World Cup as it is working out. So many new teams! Uzbekistan, Jordan, and Cape Verde are going to the World Cup! Gabon and Benin might very well join them! That's fun!

The IPA bagging is so tiresome now. Sure, there are bad ones. Like there are bad versions of every style of beer. But you can’t make an article out of “every beer is good when done well and bad when done poorly.”

UPS had seven months of warning about the de minimis change, but is still taking packages w/o getting required customs info & is making tariff charge errors.
Nice use of passive voice though!

i apologize using a passive voice. i was not born in london to a wealthy bank executive, sent to an exclusive private prep school in new hampshire, and then studied at harvard before larping as a champion of the people. you have to work with my low upbringing.
