I don't think it was all his fault, but Black's whole thing is basically "ultimately everyone's kind of stupid, and everyone's the butt of the joke." Wahlberg hasn't been willing to play that part in 20+ years.

Would any famous actor be higher than Wahlberg on a Can't Do Shane Black Stuff list?

Psyched to take this to my tax appeal next year, if only to see the reaction from the assessor.

Didn't even get called a foul somehow. Referee looked right at it and said "fair play"

Finally, I get what my coaches meant when they kept talking about body shape. They knew I was an English major, they could have just explained it as "close paren"

Amazing spectacle. Somebody does something otherworldly every other minute, and then after 10 minutes of small miracles, someone takes a corner that wouldn't look out of place in a youth league.

The only thing he's more committed to than performative macho guy bullshit is leading the tiny sideburns revival

Point B, by @drewmagary.bsky.social

Technically slightly older than 5 years, but it was published in 2020 so I'm counting it. Not sure if he would call it sci-fi but teleportation features prominently, so

Cuba and other parts of the world don't have a President Trump. Trump causes autism, quod erat demonstrandum

Acyn @acyn.bsky.social · 20d

Trump: There's a rumor and I don't know if it's so or not—that Cuba, they don't have tylenol because they don't have the money for tylenol, and they have virtually no autism

Lisa emerges from the closet to find Gary and Wyatt, immediately climbs through the screen back into the computer and turns it off. The computer explodes.

Yeah I thought before the season that Rogers would dip this year and possibly have a medium-term injury. Feared the same for Tielemans but his game is less physical.

To me, Elliott and Rogers are similar in their positional versatility but I think the jury's out on the best spot for both

Jerry Reed @jerryreed.bsky.social · 29d

Hopefully Elliott will give him a bit more competition, or at least rest. Rogers has been written in pen in the first XI for ages but his form has been flagging for about 6 months now

The party tends to do a shit job explaining why its positions are good in a way that doesn't sound like mom telling you that you need to take the antibiotic even though it tastes terrible, but it doesn't help that media mostly presents immigration hysteria uncritically. Not sure how you solve that.

100% on his passing. I wonder if that's due to teams working out our structure and plan on offense. Doesn't seem like a skill you lose, at least not abruptly.
Cash is definitely one for a howler, but you know he's going to play hard. Tough thing is there just aren't that many good RBs in our budget

I’m much more pessimistic about Pau. Cash has his flaws but he's predictable and reliable. 2-3 times a season he's going to do something like the back pass against MU but otherwise he's a 6.5 every day, whereas I feel like Pau looks less capable every week and every opponent targets his lack of pace
