Exactly. It's disappointing, but given the context I'm not going to be mad at JP for that. Incredible match, and a draw is probably fair.

Credit to B'mouth, I was expecting lots of niggly rotational fouling and parking the bus, but they mostly went at it cleanly. #cpfc

We've been creating chances. I still think we can get back in this if we score early in the 2nd half.

Of course Bournemouth will go into lead-management mode, which will complicate things... #cpfc

Welp. Lots of many uncharacteristic small individual errors and not quite clicking collective play. #cpfc

The automatic qualification as antisemitic of any criticism of actions by Jewish persons is truly maddening.

I get why it's done, and short-term it's probably useful. But over the longer term? I think some people should re-read "The Boy Who Cried Wolf".

Hey, I'm glad you reposted that, as I missed it yesterday. I too really like Matthew Good's music.

Good job!

It's kinda hard to pick one, tbh... But The angel of death from Hellboy, the one from Arcadian, and Moder from The Ritual all stand out to me.

And since I'm a big big Clive Barker fan I'll throw in Shuna Sassi as well.

Freakiest to me is Raatma, as I wrote previously.

There are a few use cases where a vocal interface makes sense in some circumstances.

Being the main way to interact with a general-purpose computer isn't one.

Je pense encore qu'elle est folle raide et qu'elle n'a pas d'affaire lร .

Mais รงa me semble de plus en plus รฉvident qu'elle croit vraiment a ses "principes" contrairement aux menteurs hypocrites que sont les dirigeants de son parti. La dissonnance cognitive la frappe de plein fouet.

Hint: A renegotiated agreement wonโ€™t solve anything. Because the country on the other end of it canโ€™t be trusted to keep its word.
The US has changed the terms of North American governance. That, not tariffs, is the real problem. Certainty is no longer on the table. Canada needs to act accordingly.

Continuing to act like North America is a thing will lead to increasingly costly bailouts of endangered sectors while foreclosing the necessary, tough conversation we need to have: how can Canada survive next to an authoritarian state that canโ€™t be trusted to keep its word?

Poem, "Where I Am (Not)"
(c) constance lee menefee 

And I thought,
it is such a perfect autumn
day
I should go somewhere
to enjoy it - more -
where the cloudless
blue sky
is bigger or
bluer -
I should go where
the trees tremble more
exactly in
the breeze
better - more quaking
and scintillating,
green-yellow blades twisting
each on a fibrous
cord
in the soft and silky gusts:
it is such a perfect autumn
day
to be where I am
unable to see
I can never be
where I am not.
--End--

That movie is pure, unadulterated nightmare fuel. Or at least it was to the young teens my friends & I were at the time of its release.

Yesterday evening, during the Canada vs Colombia friendly, the commentators mentioned Palace several times during the broadcast, going as far as describing Lerma, when he came on as a sub, as "a Palace Legend now, like all the players who won the FA Cup last spring". ๐Ÿ˜Ž
