Tbf, she was always likely to beat or equal Rothfuss. Every person writing something will beat or equal him.

Football: The long goodbye. tic-toc goes the Klopp.
Rorshach replied to A Horse Named Stranger's topic in Entertainment
Weird that Chelsea didn't keep up the pace from the end of the match, considering the youthfulness of the Liverpool team. But Liverpool trust their system and manager, while Chelsea don't really trust anything much, and that does mean something. -

Wonder how the match would look if the pitch was great, rather than ... what it seems today. Not terrible, but not very good either. -

Think the call is offside, not foul? Endo was offside when the free kick came in, and was involved in the play by blocking an opposing player? -

Looks very much like it's a design play, tbf. -

US Politics: Sitting in Judgement
Rorshach replied to A Horse Named Stranger's topic in General Chatter
All of this sort of ties into one of my biggest problems with capitalism, or more spesifically in this instance, the role media plays. Used to be media would make attempts to tell the truth, to the best of their abilities. Now, they're to a much greater degree, delivering services and need to compete in a marketplace. So instead of looking for truth, they're selling a product and have to stay relevant to their customers. And therefore they can't tell stories as they know or believe them to be true, because they have an audience to reach. Internet hasn't helped at all, since greater access means people choose their preferred truth rather than challenging their beliefs. Mostly a side note, this. -
That said, Morgan Freeman as Regis would be a perfect cast. Some years ago.

West Ham should have bought this Rice dude. Younger version with better pace. -

Guys, I think Arsenal is going to win this one. Going out on a limb here. -

Considered a double punishment given the penalty. Had it been outside the 16-yard box, it would have been. -

Arsenal being strong on set pieces reminds me of the Graham years. As it happens, that's about the only similarity between this team and George Graham's team. The other possible similarity is that they do win a lot. -
US Politics: Sitting in Judgement

Indeed. Just a surprise that so few of his followers (including those in media / power) don't comment on the fundamental inconsistency in his ideology, which will make the US weaker through creating stronger rivals. I'd also guess that this inconsistency would surprise his followers, and it would be something they'd oppose. Though, given they seem to regard him as a prophet, they'd probably write off anyone pointing this out to them. For those mentioned in the first paragraph, this makes for an uncomfortable situation in which they make themselves weaker in what seems to be a desperate hope to stay relevant or in a position of relative power. Working hard against themselves, as it is. -

It's a surprise, I'd say, given that the America First reaction is about building a strong US, which would (logically) entail not building strong opponents. This looks more like a gut reaction trying to project strength, which is all about posture and nothing about actual content. Which is spot on for Trump, who is a profoundty weak person desperate to project strength at all and every point. It doesn't make him strong, just like the policy wouldn't make the US strong, but for Trump apperance is all that matters. -

Seems Trump is getting more explicit about being in Putin's corner - if he could indeed become more expicit. A bit surprising to see Republicans becoming Russia supporters, but that' where we are. -

Side note, the Wild has the only current Norwegian NHL player, and as you'd expect from that, they're not very good -

Given Nkunu's finish today, there might be something there that will help. Jackson might evolve and come good. Broja, I think his time has come and gone. -

Yeah, this Chelsea team is still unbalanced, missing cohesion and stability. -

Hard disagree on a soft penalty call. Van Dijk moves sideways after Gallagher's touch, knocks his knee and prevents him from going one-on-one with Allison. Clear penalty, should be picked up by VAR as a matter of routine. -

They just refused to give Chelsea a penalty, so ... point was?
