i was watching one of those bodycam videos once and it was this chick calling for then complaining to a pair of cops about someone who stole the drug she was selling.

in full seriousness.

the two cops were flabbered AND gasted.

5 reds in 6? man, there would have been an FA inquest, a charge, a fine, and arteta would get a sideline ban if we even get a hint at 3.

that's . . . that . . . that feels unacceptable.

not the retraction, that was good. the fact that it took a known personality to bring attention to it.

The Trump administration just ordered two Gulfstream luxury private jets for Kristi Noem at a cost of over $172 million.

This comes as Americans can barely afford groceries.

but he went through the man to do so. either that's acceptable to do or it isn't, there needs to be consistency.

as it is, it's just . . . random.

if it takes THAT long with THAT many look? it was neither clear nor obvious.

i hate when they throw out the bullshit argument of "well, he touched the ball" randomly. either going through the man to get the ball is okay or it isn't. as it is, they just . . . lazily throw it out there when they like the play enough.

just have some manner of consistency.

i love when the audio is good enough that you can just hear gabriel's high-pitch screeching. 😁

Daedalus @techrstlamunus.bsky.social · 1d

that VAR check took way too long. neither the handball nor the foul were remotely close to being a call.

Daedalus @techrstlamunus.bsky.social · 1d

i hate how often and how much commentators love to throw out, "well, he touched the ball" when defenders go through the player to do it . . . only then to later talk about going through the player is not okay on a different play.

either you accept going through the player is okay or it isn't.

Daedalus @techrstlamunus.bsky.social · 1d

basically, if gyökeres had been a cheating asshole, we get a penalty there. because referees are too dumb to accept genuine effort does not negate a foul.

Daedalus @techrstlamunus.bsky.social · 1d

ha! yeah, i got the same vibe. like, they needed to get used to these teammates again after being away.

Daedalus @techrstlamunus.bsky.social · 1d

yeah, we looked pretty terrible early with a lot of rusty looking giveaways. cleaned it up a bit later on - and we ended up pretty dominant then - though so that's encouraging.

it does. and i think it's frustrating declan a little because he is trying to flow into space and there isn't much because they're overstepping each other.

hopefully, as they learn each other's habits and preferences, it'll clear itself out.

"oh, shit. they have a breakaway!"

"REFEREEEEE!!!!"

one of those fun quote-tweet topics on the bird app today is "define your music taste in 8 artists" and i realise i can't really make sense of:

alannis morissette
colbie caillat
anna nalick
all-4-one
kool moe dee
nightwish
delain
poxy boggards

i think the physio team gets unnecessary flak as they have clearly improved from where we were. while we have some impact injuries skewing the numbers this year, our soft tissues issues seem to be better.

where i AM concern is how our recovery from surgery continues to be absurdly bad.

Daedalus @techrstlamunus.bsky.social · 3d

eh, as a manager - baseball or otherwise - i would. but, hey, people make choices.
