Seattle friends! Are you a local sports fan, resident or business owner? I'm writing A Thing about preparations for the World Cup. Were you one of the people excited to bring the World Cup to our city? Have your feelings changed over the past few months? Are you willing to be quoted?

With what happened with Madrid and Alonso, I do wonder if Odeegard is glad he got out of that club.

This is from when I watched the 2016/17 FA Cup final with some Canadian gooners. Mertesacker started his first game of the season and became a club legend that day. His record with the academy since has cemented it. Sad to see him go 🫡

thank you to per. among other achievements, i'll never forget his wonderful good cop bad cop routine with rob vs costa

Not athletes, not machines, but people. Per Mertesacker was the perfect person to lead the development of hundreds of teenagers. Arsenal have been lucky to have him and whoever replaces him needs to continue leading the academy with the same priorities in mind.

A "goodly morning" to all Arsenal fans. May your week be full of hat tricks and wins.

Save this for the next time the "three spirits will visit you" thread

Nelli with a hat-trick 😍

FFS, just realized my stream restarted from when I stopped watching. I was about ten minutes behind the third goal 🤡

Gabi to Gabi again 😍

For all of Gyokeres’ faults. He can smack a great penalty

Reading the match report for Macclesfield's win over Crystal Palace, and there's a name I haven't seen in a long time.

The Villa fans: "Tom Frank is an Arsenal fan."

Accurate portrayal of my reaction anytime Arsenal hit the post and it doesn't go in.

After looking at their other posts, blocking this Bone Saw United fan is probably for the best.

Not regretting missing the first half of that game 😑

I'm sorry, but I find it hard to get upset about fake goalkeeper injuries when we regularly employed that tactic with Zinsberger.

How on earth did that not cross the line 😑

Well well, second yellow for Riviere 👀

This shot from last nights Twice concert in Vancouver is almost making me reconsider not getting tickets for the Canadian leg of their tour. #twice

Who knew there was an ENT specialist playing for Man Utd. Poor Frida.

You cannot remake what Blade represents. It is a load bearing part of the personality of black goths and techno gays. The main track is one of the hardest in techno history. Coogler’s the only guy who could create that level of culture and kinda did with Sinners. youtu.be/L9lIxTFO078?...

I ran into him in dealer's room and I fucking cackled

I like this analogy. Not only because Portishead were the last band I saw live many years ago, but because NMIXX will be the next.

Me to all the other Arsenal fans on here 😍

That was no fun at all and I'm annoyed. Just keep reminding myself that it's really great to be annoyed and dissatisfied with a team that is six points clear and has earned the ability to play badly and drop points that aren't fatal.

Ugh, I was hoping Set Piece FC would have won that.

The good news is that for all of Frimpong’s pace he doesn’t do much else

I'm not sure how I feel about Gyokeres being out wide all the time, but credit to him for the pass to Timber.

Very much here for Wilo being the furthest player forward chucking in crosses 😂

Especially as Frimpong injured himself after treading on Hincapie 😂

JFC, who needs caffeine when you can watch Arsenal 🤐

Would be nice to get another win against a team wearing white shirts and blue shorts 🐔 #COYG

NORTHBANKSY FACE REVEAL x Odegaard ❤️🤍 #Arsenal #StreetArt

So, the previous season of this show included a member of K-Pop group BTS in the cast. While looking him up, this cursed image swung into view. Enjoy 😂

Watching Jinny's Kitchen, a Korean reality show where they setup a restaurant in Reykjavik. The cast are all actors, including one who starred in Parasite. It's only the third day, and people are queuing up around the building an hour before it opens 👀

an incredible window from the Church of St John in Whitbourne, Herefordshire

In case folks aren’t bothering to click, this is just outstanding work by the FT.

I am at most a casual K-Pop fan, so while I love that NMIXX are getting their flowers, this was also a fun romp through songs I'd not heard before. The hotel lobby choreo in this MV is particularly striking. www.youtube.com/watch?v=LfoI...

While Gunnersaurus is objectively the best club mascot, that choker around his neck is not the greatest look 👀

This wheel is to the boy squirrel the way that the football is to Charlie Brown and it still makes me laugh every time he tries to use it only to be immediately spun.

We could all learn a lot from Finland's approach It's brilliant that they're just adding AI education to the existing media literacy curriculum www.ctvnews.ca/lifestyle/ar...

As there has been a steady stream of new arrivals on Bluesky lately, here are a few starter packs I put together which might be of use. go.bsky.app/LkYr5cE

Big fan of how much NMIXX are enjoying themselves on this cover: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q5U1...

The Ruben Amorim era Premier League table makes interesting reading for Manchester City, Liverpool and Aston Villa.

Put some respect on the name of U21 manager Calum McFarlane. He just drew Pep Guardiola at the Etihad.

So 115 Charges FC dropped points to, checks notes, manager-less Chelski? Such a shame 😏
