I am so unbelievably frustrated by @angelcity.com sacking Straus without even giving him a full season. Truly ridiculous. I had a lot more hope this season that we were on the right track, even though results were still not what we wanted. Now I feel like we might be absolutely nowhere

I wish I could go back in time to the exact moment I realized the trebuchet I built for high school physics was a wildly inaccurate piece of shit I would tell 15-year-old me that it wasn’t a bad trebuchet. It wasn’t a trebuchet at all. It was actually an extremely accurate Arsenal penalty simulator

I'm not the guy who carries a USB stick everywhere with tracks just in case I ever need to do an impromptu DJ set I'm the guy who carries one around with a bootable install of Fedora Linux just in case I need to set up an impromptu dev workstation or render farm

So @anyaolson.bsky.social and I have gone to many @angelcity.com matches over the years, but just as luck would have it, we were somehow never here for a win Now we’ve been here for two wins in a row and they were glorious #angelcityfc

My word, I think Straus has actually done it. We are… good. Never wanted to hear the contents of a halftime talk more in my life So proud of @angelcity.com #AngelCityFC

No better time to break my bluesky silence than as @anyaolson.bsky.social and I enter BMO Stadium for the @angelcity.com home opener #AngelCityFC

Time to find out if Bayern are for real

Tonight I paid for a soda with a credit card that I spent several seconds searching for inside a package of salami Got home, poured myself the soda, thought about what a silly brain moment that had been! Maybe a minute or so later, I suddenly realized I was drinking the soda out of a cereal bowl

This is the best moonwalk performance I've ever seen

I definitely have some redundancies in the soccer apps category but in this instance it feels great. We are officially on the upswing, and we can do it with the players we have. Imagine when Jonsdottir finally gets that first goal. #AngelCityFC

Riley Tiernan is back! What brilliant goal #AngelCityFC

What an absolutely incredible goal from Alyssa Thompson! That one felt great #ACFC #AngelCity

the lovely @anyaolson.bsky.social and I celebrating my birthday in our own special ways

Let’s go Angel City!

Maybe the reason I started this job was because of what’s about to open right next to our office

I began and ended my workday by spilling a drink on my stuff

Today was 3 weeks working for Favorited.com, a new social video platform that believes a lot of the things I do: social means interaction rather than consumption, creators deserve to keep most of their earnings, trust & safety matters and requires resources. Definitely preferring it to doing nothing

Happy 5th birthday to Blackberry, my special little boy and the only creature I’ve ever known who is even stranger than I am.

There’s something comforting about apparently being far from the only member of the 4:30am self service car wash club

Why does the dork at the bottom of the frame at the beginning have a 60-lb. backpack with a canteen? You're in MacArthur Park. There's an El Pollo Loco on 6th and Alvarado -- just pop in and get yourself a Diet Coke, you dork.

Sandman season 2 is out today! Finally, the thing that my wife @anyaolson.bsky.social put the last few years of her life into is out there. So proud of her

I cannot properly convey my shock and disappointment at Sweden not winning Eurovision in a total landslide

I wonder if I’ll ever be as excited about anything as this Crystal Palace fan is about being seconds away from winning the FA Cup

I just met a man whose dog was diagnosed with lymphoma, so he has taken a leave of absence from work, bought a Sprinter van, and is going to just road trip with his dog to various nature destinations around the country for as long as his dog lives, and I am just floored by how beautiful this is

It would appear having a decoy office chair has backfired

playing soccer very badly

Alexander Straus appointed as #ACFC manager is an extremely smart move, and a much bigger deal than most of us expected. Angel City supporters wanting a crash course on what Strauss is like and how he runs his teams can watch the recent and excellent Bayern Frauen documentary series on YouTube

It's been years, but I am still waiting for something to come along and dethrone this product from the high pedestal on which it sits in my head. Simultaneously, it managed to be 1) truly hilarious, 2) incredibly hipstery, and 3) a colossal grift

I'm in my 30s, with adult responsibilities and several living creatures to care for. Why did I think I would enjoy being bothered by a needy virtual pet a dozen times a day? @anyaolson.bsky.social anthropomorphizes everything and gets truly sad if it's neglected so I have no choice, I am its father

How am I supposed to prove to IMDb that I didn’t work on a show I’m credited for? Sworn statements from my wife testifying as to my whereabouts? Geotagged photos? Credit card receipts? Blockchain data of some sort?

Well the Angel City Tamagotchi arrived today lol

Amazing goal from Fuller for Angel City!

"What's the weather in San Francisco?" is to the A.I. community what Big Buck Bunny is to the video community

Whoa, Mala Grohs is in goal right now for Bayern in their Champions League match! Mala was diagnosed with cancer back in November and had surgery in December. She is already back, returning as a starter in a huge match. This is remarkable and people should be writing about it

It's AT21 running to celebrate with her @angelcity.com teammates for us 🥹

lol I just bought an Angel City Tamagotchi What a brilliant collaboration if your intent is to rope in someone of my generation

Volemos! #AngelCityFC

I’m not at a football match in London, but an immersive theater in Los Angeles. lol COSM is insane

Belgium has this great system where companies get a tax break for investing in audiovisual works, performing arts, or video games. Apparently, it works really well—a win for companies, artists, and Belgium. I learned this exists because "Flow" was funded in part by it

"Flow" won the Oscar for best animated feature, which is incredible, and marks the first Oscar for: • a Latvian film • a film made with the free & open-source Blender software • an animated feature with 100% European financing • Director Gints Zilbalodis, who is also the youngest to ever win

Earthquake in Los Angeles. Here in Hollywood it didn’t feel very severe, but it lasted longer than usual

Apparently Firefox has been sending this nerdy and supremely silly "300" pun with every WebRTC SDP answer for over ten years

This might be the most perfect and versatile article title of all time. Fun for all, for many reasons. (Interesting piece, too!)

Here's the lay of the land currently. We are safe.

Welp, we have mandatory evacuation orders, so we are picking up the NINE CATS currently under our jurisdiction and getting the fuck out of here

Fire is out of control and spreading quickly due to 45mph winds, 30k+ people already evacuating, and the LA Times is over here charging money to look at their fire maps

Oh. My. Let's take a look at this thing - live.
