Well, I feel personally attacked.

Messier 16 - The Eagle Nebula This is a little under 20 hours of total data: 48 minutes each through red, blue, and green filters for the stars. About six hours of hydrogen-alpha and oxygen III and five hours of sulfur II filters to capture the emission from the gasses.

I thought the foul on Spence looked like a penalty live in real time. On seeing the slow-mo, I still think it’s a penalty.

That would have been one of the better team goals of the tournament.

One of the great things about international soccer is the “we have a decent team, but our best striker is a 40-year old Eden Džeko” dynamic.

If you want to set realistic expectations for Real Madrid this season: their manager is doing ads for Kalshi.

Of all the sports I follow, soccer is probably the least fair. Haiti deserved more than three losses and zero points in the World Cup.

I don’t get the Luis Suárez hate. Sure, he bit that one guy. And racially abused that other guy. And bit that other guy. And played for Liverpool. And bit that third guy. But if we look past all that…?

Of all the flavors of own goal, “deflected clearance off the defender” might be my favorite.

In general, I like my job, but I don’t like working if that makes sense. I really don’t like working during the World Cup.

You know the Stanley Cup is the greatest trophy in sports when the NHL’s Eastern Conference champions see The Prince of Wales, the heir to the British throne, and say, “Don’t touch that one. That’s not the one we want.”

I remember having the “500% increase vs. 600% of the old price” in a lab group meeting during grad school because another student was unclear during a practice run for a conference talk that would be heard by maybe 20 people. We made sure we all understood the difference. This is the Oval Office.

So… here’s the thing. He could be lying about this, which is plausible. Trump is incredibly dishonest and untrustworthy. Or he could have actually thought it was him as a doctor. Which is equally plausible because Trump is incredibly stupid.

In my observation, this is the modal Christian right defense of Trump's deranged statements. It's not "Hell yeah! Get 'em Trump!" More often it's an attempt to ease their consciences by framing it as a false choice: "It's either Trump or [imagined persecution of Christianity]. What else could I do?"

Lee’s plan on the second day wasn’t much better, but Sickles getting spooked and moving his Corps onto indefensible ground almost caused the American left flank to collapse.

BREAKING: Something INCREDIBLE happened
during Munster vs Hertha Berlin.
There was a possible penalty for Hertha Berlin, and they sent the referee to the screen to review it. At that moment, the local fans invaded the pitch and stole the VAR cable.
The referee couldn't see the play, so the VAR official had to decide, and they awarded the penalty, which ended up being a goal.
