Someone on the soccer discord wanted DM'ing advice for D&D now that the team's season was over. Excellent. Always happy to help with that.

Woo boy, after this semifinal game the vibes in the FCCincy discords are going to be TOXIC for months. 🤮
As traumatic as the Eastern Conference Final in 2023 was, and as cathartic as the 3 game series against in 2025 felt, this is a bad way to end the season.

I highly doubt this is due to a lack of interest. Rather it’s a failure of most Korean universities to have instructors capable of offering courses in English. Often “English” STEM classes are an English textbook with Korean-language lectures

Foreign students numbers rise, but few of them studying STEM
The number of foreign students in Korea has grown over the past decade, but far fewer are studying natural sciences or engineering, according to new research.

When Son Heung-Min joined MLS, the streaming rights for LAFC games were sold to different Korean TV broadcasters and streaming services to grow their footprint in Korea.
Will those streaming rights remain in place next season, or will LAFC games return to AppleTV exclusivity?

Started playing in a game of Mythic Bastionland last night. Everyone started embodying their worst character traits to create something memorable from nothing. It was beautiful.
"Ah, you're going to be an absolute hoity toity ass! I have permission to hate you!" I can't wait to see where THIS goes.

Students don't realize that before they go up to speak in front of class for the first time this semester, I am as nervous as they are about the experience.
I've seen REALLY bad presentations before. I don't want anyone to sit through on or experience doing that ever again. MUST BUILD CONFIDENCE.
