It may be unjust that USMNT got special treatment from FIFA, on the other hand, what did you expect from FIFA? Also, the red card was unjust to begin with, so maybe a better system to correct injustices is warranted? The injustice is that FIFA screws all & is screwing US less, and that is unfair.

I didn’t want to route for France, but this Paraguay style of playing is ugly. That malicious contact with the goalkeeper should have been a card.

I wish offsides in soccer had a 1 foot zone. To allow a lean or stray appendage. This POR-CRO game could be 2-1 with two more exciting goals counting that were barely offsides.

Got a poll from Luce about mining in Minnesota. As if the EPA hasn’t been gutted & the Supreme Court ruling this week that corporations aren’t liable for causing cancer in our communities. There is no meaningful oversight to make me feel comfortable they won’t choose profits over protections.

AXS is just the worst. Yesterday I had two presale tickets in my cart and my credit card wouldn’t go through b/c AXS wouldn’t let me either update my expiration date or add a card with the same number and new date. Today they called me a bot and banned my IP. 😤

HAHAHAhaha! they're making the world's biggest synthetic scum pond!!! The coating is a polyurea used inside pipes. It gels in about 3 seconds, making it non self-leveling. The texture is like an orange peel, the perfect substrate for biofilms. www.nytimes.com/2026/05/19/u...

Genuinely just bonkers to watch the USA do this to one of the most successful and innovative hubs of scientific research the world has ever seen. All those years of Free Speech On Campus debates and it turns out they actually wanted less cancer research. Absurd.

It seems clear Alex Pretti, a healthcare worker, was murdered for engaging in the exact kind of community care we hope all care workers to embody: the kind that doesn’t stop at the threshold of the hospital, the clinic, but that aims to care for and support the community where and how they can

A lot of the media has messed up in describing all of these folks who are observing as protesters, they’re neighbors who quickly come out of their homes to document ICE presence knowing that their privilege is the only thing possibly standing in the way of a neighbor being disappeared or brutalized.

First run in 3 months. On my 8th affliction of 2025: Pneumonia (1/25), cold (2/25), cold (6/25), Plantar Fasciitis (6/25-7/25), COVID (8/25), tonsillitis (9/25), plantar wart (9/25-11/25), and another mild cold (10/25). After getting almost nothing in 2023-2024 and running 2500 miles! Slow start.

Hennepin County Property Tax statement arrived for 2026. Up a whopping 10%. Worse than that… The School District portion is only going up 3.6%, while City of Minneapolis is up 13.6%! Meanwhile our teachers in public schools in Minneapolis have to go on strike every 3 years.

Hit 1,000 on my e-bike in 10 months! It has really changed how I think about getting around the city as a one-car family and the flexibility I have to make separate plans.

Rode the e-bike to drop off the 7yo this morning at ballet in 3deg temps. 🥶 It was fine, actually. Very glad class is only 1 mile away though! I think 0 may be my limit to bike.

I guess I *really* don’t understand how scoring in college football works. What sort of calvinball madness is this?
ESPN app showing TEX a scoring 15 point TD in OT followed by an ASU 14 point TD that somehow also gives TEX 7 points, then TEX scoring a negative 7 point TD that is also negative 7 points for ASU.

New year, new running goals! Fell 12 miles short of 2024 goal due to illness, so I guess I’ll add 12 miles to whatever goal I determine once I kick this bronchitis.

Jerry Yeti @jerryyeti.bsky.social · 31/12/2024
I suspect *strongly* I have bacterial bronchitis based on past experience with viral vs. bacterial coughs and the fact my 10yo just had a bacterial lung infection clear up. PA thinks otherwise. Now I’m stuck coughing for a few more weeks on an inhaler instead of days to see if this can clear up. 😷

The Whole of the Moon as a key song in a Christmas movie is a bold choice, one of which I firmly support. Let It Snow, an underrated vignette classic from 2019.

Played Root with my coworkers last night. Close game: 30-29-29-25. 🦎🦅🐈🐁. I interacted with a lot of table talk as my Lizard economy went from 6 points per turn to 2 and on the cusp of 0, getting very lucky on my last card to craft. Love Root, but I need to be more self aware about my table talk.

Here me out #F1, Abu Dhabi double points. 🍅💨 Not only that, but every race after the opening race is +4% (104% then 108% thru to 200%). Also points to the Top 15. And points for artistry and articulation. Even better, drop Abu Dhabi and have the finale in Brazil.

2025 Hennepin County proposed tax arrived today. Home taxable value dropped 2%, but the overall taxes went up 9.3%. 🫠 Not sure what “maximum” means when the City authorized a “maximum” 8.3%.

Watched Hocus Pocus last night for the first time. Our first grader asks, “what’s a virgin?” Thinking we could downplay its importance, we brush it off to explain later. By the 6th mention, as it becomes a running joke in the movie, “WHAT’S. A. VIRGIN?” 🙃
