Mid century neon sign for the Safari Inn, it’s got a real tiki vibe to it and there are dark rain clouds behind it

So cool to see one of these kids actually having fun while competing, hope she shows a bunch more kids that there’s another way.

For failing to fulfill NBC’s imposed narratives. They get very annoyed when athletes don’t do what NBC said they were going to do.

Do you think the skeleton athletes bully the lugers? Cause it has to be tempting for them.

These Swedish cross country skiers are terrifying, Terminator like in the way they keep attacking the course.

Oh sure, Atlanta is a good example of one done well. I’m glad we have a variety now instead of just a couple templates.

Thank god the league and Adidas have moved past the β€œclean and minimal” era. I’ll take a swing and a miss over plain white every time.

β€œLike Michael Jordan and most big screen adaptations of Emily Brontë’s sole novel, Fennell says, β€œFuck them kids.” This version only focuses on the first half of the novel, jettisoning the part about the next generation and how the cruelty and misery just keeps on going…”

Love it

I just went and saw the "unredacted" Epstein files.

Hundreds of pages still redacted and I was told that's how the FBI sent them over.

Ilia Malinin is the Erling Haaland of figure skating - a thought that just popped into my head.

Bruce Wayne is jealous of your set up. (Love all the Crew pics)
100% agree with everything you said, the league covering itself always came with a giant asterisk.
Another issue with the Apple deal is it disincentivized ESPN and Fox Sports from talking about the league at all. Who fills the hole now?

A blue shirt that says NEAT in white lettering. Excuse the wrinkles and bad lighting I just took it out of the packaging

My @supportersupply.co anti-ICE shirt just arrived and looks great. A bit different from the usual stuff I buy Trish for Valentine’s but she’s been wanting something to wear to protests. I got Dodgers colors but they have a ton of color combos.

I like my country like I like my whiskey, neat, no ice

I could kind of understand it if they were really building up their Apple TV coverage with lots of season previews and midweek content to give people an entryway into the league. But they’re stripping that down too. They’re actively trying to kill interest in following MLS, it’s bizarre.

This is a huge loss for MLS. I have no idea what they’re trying to do anymore. They’re killing their website, hardly producing any coverage at Apple, they’re moving backwards at the worst possible time.
However the idea of a unleashed Doyle is pretty intriguing.

This is wild. Picturing a Ritchie Tenenbaum situation while he was competing - β€œThere’s clearly something wrong with him. He appears to have taken off one of his skis” (camera zooms in on his face as he aims the rifle) β€œTex, is he crying?”

The nice commercial about helping kids find their lost pets was the scariest thing I've seen in my life

Always love when the NBC announcers seem genuinely bemused that athletes from other countries aren’t just handing the medals to the Americans. It’s almost as if they have their own motives, weird.

ME: I need a molded plywood splint to reduce injuries suffered by wounded servicemembers in transit

CHARLES & RAY EAMES: here you go

ME: I also need an educational film illustrating the powers of ten and the nicest chair anyone has ever seen

CHARLES & RAY EAMES: you're not going to believe this

Watching the luge and I can’t imagine going that fast down the ice, terrifying. But! I don’t like at the beginning when they’re scooting along on their fingertips. It’s undignified.

To paraphrase Faulkner - β€œFor every Democratic politician eighty years old, not once but whenever they want it, there is the instant when it’s still not yet twelve o’clock on that November afternoon in 1963”

The Kennedy β€œbrand” is dead and tied to the top of RFK’s suv. It ain’t coming back.

Watching the Olympic opening ceremonies and enjoying this tribute to Italian culture, but a concerning lack of Monica Bellucci so far.

As a fellow Merlin user, congratulations to you, condolences to your friends and loved ones since you’re about to drive them crazy with bird talk.

One of the most consistent through lines with Trump is that the buck stops far, far, far away from him. He doesn’t know where it stops, but it’s far below him. He then bends the universe to try to make it true

Scooby-Doo strikes again!

Whenever a brand is closing or going bankrupt you almost always can find that PE made a major investment in the last few years.

1950’s style neon sign that says MOTEL with an arrow.

I like when a place knows what it is, there’s no airs of pretension when your sign just says MOTEL. You know you’re not fooling anyone including yourself.

When republicans say β€œthoughts and prayers” they mean it. That’s all you’re getting from them.
