for Americans new to the sport, 3-2 in football is roughly equivalent to 817-620 in one of your sports.

Now caught up on England. I think that was too stressful to watch early in the morning. Very good match but Mexico might feel a bit unlucky there.

I might have to mute the word soccer on this. It seems what Americans on Bluesky think the world cup is for is making political arguments. Just a completely totalising way of looking at culture and sport. A very sick society.

My prediction is that Spain and Austria will form a strategic marriage alliance and go in to dominate the World Cup

Hate it when people do bourgeois idealist scholarship (going out into the world and counting stuff) when they should be doing actual *materialist* scholarship (riffing off what some long dead Germans would probably say about the last TikTok video I watched). Like do we want revolution or not people?

England went behind, but picked up their game and ground it out. That might not have been great, but it was a professional effort

Costume? I don’t think so! Blobby sheds his skin every spring, then makes a fortune selling it to freaks and ghouls. It’s a scam.

Mr Blobby costume sold at auction in Bristol for £8,500

Auctioneers say they had bids from around the world for the costume of the 'iconic' TV character.

Why are so many Americans on Bluesky shocked that South America and Africa have good football teams? They seem to think this is a massive revelation.

Seems to be a lot of Americans on Blue sky that view the world cup primarily through the lens of international politics. This totalising of politics is deeply unhealthy. There's no culture left there - just politics.

I've had far more occasions to consider the weirdness of the word 'resign' than I would like in recent years. Surely it ought to mean to renew your contract, as in 'I'm resigning. That's right, I am re-signing my contract with the British people for another ten years, baby.'

The entire source for Starmer resigning today seems to be PoliticsUK tweeting something out without any evidence. If he were going, wouldn't there be some sort of press conference booked in?

If… and I’m still not convinced… if they lose today, I do wonder how soon before the party starts splitting and infighting again. They are a party of protest voting acting like there’s demand for prewar social policies.

I know opening with the host nation is traditional, but Mexico V South Africa was dreadful and frankly it was never going to be that great either. They should pick an actually good match to start

The problem Starmer has is he seems to always be the supplicant. He can't lead the debate and when it comes time to act he ends up begging a favour. SOC media use might not be the biggest political issue, but it is one every person in the UK will have thought and worried about.

I'd love for this to be the moment where the US and Israel breaks their ties - where Israel has finally gone too far and taken the alliance for granted. But the US right being unleashed on anti-israel stuff would be very dark indeed.
