  1. Past hour
  2. Being a goal up is preferable to being a goal down, but I'm glad the derby isn't played more often. I absolutely hate watching, just waiting for us to slip. Also concerning that Mykolenko is doubtful for the second half. He's our only left back, and a good one at that.
  3. Hmmm. I missed that all together. But then, as commented, this series did not engage my emotions or curiosity beyond seeing what they did with this once-upon-a-time phenomenon of publishing, and then made-for-tv movie mini-series (1980). Or else I was making dinner -- and/or jetlagged when that rolled by. In any case this son plays absolutely no role in the series.
  4. All we need to understand is, since behind every great family and their great fortune is a great crime, for a great family to continue with its great fortune is to commit more great crimes. Which entertains those over whom they maintain their exploitation and dominance via their great fortunes which provides their great power.
  5. Yes we did. Buntaro yells at him and pushes him away when he's asking Mariko about when they'll be back or some such, and then more recently in the 8th or 9th episode where he tries to dissuade her from... was it her suicide? By saying how he won't honor her or some such.
  6. Now it was Diaz turn in the inept finisher category at Liverpool. Not as bad as Darwin's miss, but boy Liverpool are back at wasting chances.
  7. I hear that Darwin Nunez is having a 'mare Darwin Nunez is playing.
  8. We beat spurs 4-0 with 27% possession.
  9. That's what I said. But she's already dead, when he does this. She has no daughters. I didn't know she had a son, so thank you for that information. But, we never saw him. What is he doing? Torananga doesn't seem to know either, or give a damn. He has many sons though, which is mentioned by more figures than himself.
  10. I'm not sure how the facial scanning at the airport is going to impact much there. If you are flagged, its not going to matter if they scan your face or not. Now perhaps the concern is more with the facial recognition everywhere else where one might be considering nefarious viva la resistance activities. I will say coming back through immigration the last couple trips has been a breeze- we didn't even need our passports, just look at the camera, it gives you a green check, then walk past the CPB person who says welcome back XYZ.
  11. Maguire and McTominay are better strikers that all our actual forwards.
  12. Also, that goal in United vs. Sheffield is 100% on Onana and not ten Hag.
  13. 83% of the possession, a goal down. Fuck's sake lads.
  14. This is already the case, just not for people like you.
  15. Darwin really should've leveled the score there (undeservedly as Everton are better).
  16. Mariko has a son. But my take on the falcon release scene is that Toranaga has metaphorically freed Mariko of any obligations and service. The falcon is now free to live its life normally, no longer on the arm of the puppet master.
  17. I am disconcerted by the recent emergence of mandatory face scanning at airports. Right now it's a convenience, but should our government fall into the clutches of a paranoid and vindictive autocrat (which is basically a coin flip in the US at this point), you know that tech will be abused. "Oh, you want to flee the country, Mr. Resistance? Oh no, it looks like there's an issue with your passport..."
  18. Protests in Argentina just keep getting bigger and bigger... I wonder how long until Wolverine sends the army to deal with them since I believe he has managed to pass some anti-protest legislation.
  19. True Remebrr the bulk of sellsword companies will be essosi born and bred and they wear armour. The pit fighter barristan fought had never e countered plate but we do see they can make armoir for pit fighters , slave troops and even the man belwas kills outside mereen! Seems.more that pitfighter just hadnt seen plate, his niche was rippimg out and esting hearts so he was probably.never matched vs armour wearers either! Says the forts have fused stone walls 1000ft high! Just like westeros its clear something horrible.came.to essos a long lomg time.ago
  20. That's like discussing a bathroom renovation while the kitchen is actively on fire. Ukraine's priority right now is stopping Russians in the East, where they are barely holding on (a line breakthrough at Ocheretyne was barely contained this weekend). Ukraine will be very lucky if it gets into a position where they can put Crimea under siege, but they are very, very far from that point right now.
  21. Zubimendi (plays for Real Sociedad) would be a good option imo. Not a carbon copy of Partey's style but he's got a good passing range and is very good at making interceptions in the opposition half. Is solid defensively as well so would allow Rice to play more box-to-box.
  22. That wasn't the only reason they loved Renly. But they were right to in any case!
  23. My feeling is that we've moved on from this being a logistical issue - especially one that Ukraine can now exploit - and gone to a more urgent issue of stopping advances. Per reports Russia is flying flags in towns NW of Avdiivka: https://www.theguardian.com/world/live/2024/apr/24/russia-ukraine-war-live-us-biden-senate-zelenskiy-aid
  24. @Ser Scot A Ellison, here's something I wrote a while back on Andy Warhol and postmodernism, which conveys my feelings about copyright fairly well. The piece is somewhat on the cynical side, and I could write a sequel that pushes back in certain ways, but its main purpose was to present the broader context for Warhol and pop art. At very least it's some food for thought. https://phylogenicrecords.wordpress.com/2022/06/21/a-copy-of-a-copy-of-a-copy/
