Arsenal (especially WFC), baseball (especially Blue Jays), Gotham FC, Music (especially, but not always twangy, mostly guitar driven), Star Trek, board games, stationary (especially fountain pens), left political economy. He/Him.
Emma Regan leaving AFC Toronto for the NWSL. This sucks. She was very good, and I was hoping the NSL would be able to hold on to talent like her. Good career move for her, though!

Well. Conceding to Portsmouth in under three minutes is less than ideal.

Tonight's libations, Ranglum.
A real nice mix of molasses from the rum, warm spices, and lime. Got a real nice crisp citrus finish. I dig it.

1 3/4oz Black rum
1/2oz Falernum
1/2oz Lime
1/4oz White rum
1 tsp Rich syrup

“They need better training” is just the liberal way of wanting nothing to change but also wanting to feel good about nothing changing

It feels like every week since mid October I post "we should have done better, we are a better team on paper than this," and I'm beginning to wonder if that's even true. More than half an hour against ten players and we can't win.

The Goalkeeper fake injury timeout in WSL that happens in virtually every game would be so easy to stamp out by banning more than one players going to the touchline in stoppages. Can't believe the FA allow it to keep happening.

Watch out for the ONE question where they try to trick you by putting "I want AI" as the bottom option where EVERY other question has "I don't want AI" at the bottom!

before murdering renee good, the ice goon was frightened for his life, we’re told

It’s meant to justify the murder

nobody telling us this ever seems to wonder whether the woman who was murdered might have been afraid for her life

killing because you’re afraid is only for cops, it seems

I would watch this in a heartbeat. And then I would watch it again.

Waiting for every elected official who backed a thinly-veiled anti-trans bill called the "Kids Online Safety Act" to say anything about the fact that formerly-twitter is now offering its users a literal child p**n generator. I mean you are all deeply worried about the safety of kids, right?

Maduro sucking or not sucking is a peripheral question and a classic misdirection. The USA isn’t removing Maduro because he sucks! They’re removing him because he refuses to give them what they want

By Wednesday Trump is going to be visibly irritated if reporters are still asking him questions about Venezuela.
January 3, 2026 at 6:56 PM
The USA's illegal imperialist adventures in Venezuela are angering, disheartening, dangerous, and somehow not really surprising. What is quite alarming, though, is the way self-procliamed left-ish governments like Canada and the UK are saying "yep, we're absolutely fine with this. Carry on."

“The problem here is that he didn’t follow the rules” is the only argument you can really make when almost no one in your coalition is anti-war in any meaningful sense.

I admit that I'm no great legal mind but, limited though my understanding may be, it seems to me that a call to 'respect international law' in this situation should include a note of criticism about sending an armed force to another country to abduct its president. #Venezuela

Sports are also bad, apparently.

I often don't post, a lot, explicitly about politics because I don't know what I have to offer beyond "this is very bad, there's little chance of stopping it, and another world is necessary, now" about a great number of things.

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts.

Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.

The United States is blatantly violating international law in order to engage in regime change. It is that simple. Canada is acting in complete support of this illegal act. This needs to be said this simply.

A US indictment doesn’t give you the right to invade another country, seize its leader, or decide who governs next. Criminal charges and non-recognition don’t erase head-of-state immunity, this is regime change dressed up as law enforcement.

Watched Wake Up Dead Man. I did enjoy it. Still processing it - I liked the central mystery, but maybe it had one too many twists for me?

I have always loved Tom Waits. I've seen him live twice. Now I think I need to go on a little Waits listening escapade.

Played Heat & Dominion today. Heat is such a fun game, I never tire of it. It's been more than 15 years since I played Dominion, and I instantly went "oh yeah it's a classic for a reason."

I have a lot of games in shrink, but I'm going through a phase of "tried and tested classics."
