Happy Bastille Day

Chatting with my friend’s otherwise lovely Spanish mom yesterday, she told me Spain is better than France because there are too many Moroccans here. So yeah, not super surprising.

Just realized that Tuesday is not only Bastille Day, it is also and more importantly the World Cup semi finals in which France will play Spain. Gonna be bananas here.

i've made two pretty great imho summer dinners the last two nights

Bullshit call

What am I supposed to do when this and ARG v EGY are on at the same time??

This song goes so hard www.youtube.com/watch?v=wzf8...

From the Telemundo broadcast just now by the commentary team during a slow-mo replay of the goal and a shot of Haaland with his hair down: "This is a perfect goal. The ball didn't touch anything." In exaggerated, gravely, dramatic voice: "TERMINATOR"

And Wimbledon! And the Pre Classic was this past weekend!

Osaka!!!!

I’m on a serious journey right now to try to watch a replay of Nikki Hiltz’s race at Pre yesterday

Paraguay to the World Cup audience:

Neil, welcome to the war on cars @thewaroncars.bsky.social

Extremely cute that Mbappé ran straight to his coach for a hug after scoring a record breaking goal

This ref is calling way too much

Do we think everyone at this campsite in the south of France is watching the World Cup match rn at 11pm?

I hate seeing these teams who’ve worked so hard lose 😞

I have a BCBG cocktail dress that I wore to my 6th grade formal in 2002. Still fits!

Canal+ please add captions to all your programming! Mbcp 😘

A+ life advice

Why did FIFA switch to having matches played simultaneously during these last few days of the group stage?

France recorded ~1,000 excess deaths during the record-breaking heatwave this past week, with 85% of the deaths being people aged 65 and over. The sharpest increase are people dying at home in the Île-de-France region that includes Paris and its suburbs.

So what did we learn this morning? Two portable ac units, 3 fans, the tv, and using two burners is too much for one circuit 🤷🏻‍♀️

Guys our IKEA has something called Småland which is a supervised play area for kids and you can leave them there for AN HOUR FOR FREE

In the 4 years since Roe v Wade was overturned there have been over 400 pregnancy related prosecutions. Maternal mortality is up 33% nationwide and 50% in some states. We are being criminalized and murdered. That’s the legacy of Dobbs

I love this France kit

Last day of school!!!

Seeing a lot of coverage about the TPS ruling being a "win" for Trump's "immigration agenda" and what the story really should be is that this ruling paves the way for an expansion of ethnic cleansing. Because that's what has been happening and will occur moving forward.

Live: Paris Pride postponed, drowning death toll rises as Europe swelters in record heatwave

I’m pressing a cold mini Coke Zero to my forehead in front of the fan in my French apartment just like I always dreamed of

I don't understand British politics. From a distance, kinda looks mad,

If your dad sucks, I'm your daddy now. and I'm very proud of you.

I have extroverted too hard.

Summer food 😋

perpetually misreading kalshi as kashi and wondering how high-fiber cereal has such a stranglehold on the nation

Two people (one stranger!) have complimented my hat this morning. Either the universe is fucking with me or I actually look cute bc this is unheard of for the French.

The cherries I got this week are the best cherries I’ve ever had

Do the parents at my kids’ school have nothing else to do besides send WhatsApp messages???

Possibly the least fun thing to do with your kids is wait on a train platform

Love this “what not to do on the tram” image of someone manspreading
