It's a new episode of the City SC Report! Join us as we look at City's recent player signings (and one big departure). So many center backs!

I'm convinced AI is our generation's radium - a discovery with genuinely useful applications in specific, controlled circumstances that we stupidly put in everything from kid's toys to toothpaste until we realised the harm far too late where future generations will ask if we were out of our minds.

There's a timeline where St. Louis becomes the MLS version of Barcelona – just a nonstop assembly line of talent coming through the ranks.

I want to live in it.

There is no need for ice to exist. If an immigrant is a criminal they’ll be apprehended via normal law enforcement agencies. Other than that, let them go through USCIS.

While the pasty incels who work the federal agencies continue to churn out feeble, bloodless AI pastiches of Axis propaganda, here’s how a living breathing artist powerfully invokes design history. This is by illustrator Emily K in South Philly, a free poster-sized download on her website: β†’

A new podcast episode on Festivus? Does that mean we're airing grievances or just discussing the new head coach, recent player moves, and the upcoming season schedule? Listen to find out!

That would be a terrible idea, which means there's like a 15% chance MLS is thinking about it.

Given the layout of the MLS map, this is the only way it makes sense.

What are the odds the league finds a way to screw it up? Maybe puts Miami in the SW or something just to screw with us?

The switch to a July-May season for the #MLS seems sensible for many reasons, and I think this is an important one: MLS matches are played in significantly higher temperatures compared to the top πŸ‡ͺπŸ‡Ί leagues.

Also, judging by those recent CPL highlights, snow football looks awesome, bring it on

A digital poster in the style of a World War II propaganda piece. Isolaed on a yellow background, a normal, squarish, 20-something guy with glasses is sitting working on a laptop. A ghostly figure of Hitler has his arm around the guy and is grinning and shaking a fist triumphantly looking at the laptop screen. On the lid of the laptop where an apple might otherwise be is an openAI logo, bright green, and dripping green ooze down the lid. Text on the poster, in combinations of sans-serif type and brush script reads: 
Using Generative AI?
You’re prompting with Hitler!
GenAI is a Fascist Project!
Try using your brain instead
Don’t surrender your creativity to the tech billionaire’s control

The one on Sangbin in the box. Both announcers on tv were sure they'd review and give the penalty, so it's not just my hometown bias.

weratedogs This is Chop. He was shot and killed by masked assailants in plain clothes who go by ICE.
Unsurprisingly, they did not care enough to help the family as they tried to save him. Even more unsurprising, they did not find any evidence of the migrants they were there to terrorize in the first place.
Do not open your door for these fucking losers. Rest easy Chop
