My opinion as someone who hasn't played soccer since I was 12 is that offsides is a bullshit rule

Rooting for Croatia bc I like their 40-year-old rat man

Trump: It's not working! Why don't they love the fair? How do I make the crowds cheer? Oracle of DC: If you test your strength against the heat with a very long speech, the nation will celebrate harder than they ever have. They will party in the streets. No one will ever forget the night.

At one point, my 4th grade teacher was so done with us she put herself in time-out and just went to the back corner and put her head down for ten minutes while we kids all awkwardly looked at each other. She also told me my dad was very handsome???

One funny piece of trivia about _Country Roads_ is that despite the song’s reference to West Virginia songwriter John Denver had actually never been to the United States and originally wrote that line about Merv, Turkmenistan

As the most authentic kind of Catholic (has barely gone to mass in 20 years outside of funerals and weddings, doesn't believe most of it besides the handful of important parts, hates myself, from MA) I am more than qualified to say these Evangelical Catholics and Adult Convert losers are fakes.

We're all trying to find the guy who did this

I am sorry to all my trans friends about how far we have let this astroturfed obsession with genitalia and gender spread

Holy shit this episode, this series #TVL

#TVLspoilers #TheVampireLestatspoilers #TVL I SCREAMED

Ever finish a book like “well, damn, THIS is gonna win all the awards & change our industry fundamentally & its illustrations of horror enlighten & shame us while reveling in the beauty of language & connection we’re capable of when we see others as people?” Yeah. @slhuang.com DID that. What a book

Good god, if you're reading an ebook you can literally HOLD THE WORD AND GET THE DEFINITION INSTANTANEOUSLY. If you use a word I am unfamiliar with, I am DELIGHTED to learn a new one.

do NOT bring this to the city of boston

Really sad about some Publishing stuff. If you would like to cheer me up, please buy some sci fi books (esp space opera) so we can prove to the industry that people still want to read them!

This extremely good flintlock fantasy series that draws on real-world cultures ended with a hint that in Book 3 we’ll be seeing “the Tenger Empire” LET’S FUCKING GOOOO

my kind of Jubilee, the Japanese national team vs. 100 kids

Whenever book drama erupts, I see non-writers wondering aloud why it seems like writers are all crazy, and I am here to tell you that it is not *writing* that drives you crazy, it's publishing

More Kerry lewks, because playing around with how he melds the specific flavor of masculinity that is Boston Guy with also trying to be as visibly queer as possible is extremely fun to write and draw (if his tattoos change every time I draw them, shhh, no they don't) #artsky #digitalart

I'm always so shy about sharing my book fanart with the authors, like I think they're going to be weirded out or something, but I would turn cartwheels if someone sent me even stick figure doodles of my characters

I have been sent a survey from a company that did not hire me asking me to rate the experience of not being hired

The Scottish fans should come back to Boston anyway and just hang

The European mind will never comprehend the Sears "You'll call now" air conditioning commercial youtu.be/XclDLIx8NQ4?...

This is the most brilliantly petty thing. Speaking of the Dubliner 😭🤣 they shut down for staff rest the day of the English match LMAOOOOOO

why aren't you watching Interview with the Vampire?

Welp, the latest episode of #TVL sure reframes my love for the song 'Your Biggest Fan'

Not the cardboard cutout of Hudson Williams!!! 🤣🇨🇦

I need my fellow Americans to start noticing "boy, these foreign World Cup fans sure have a lot of vacation days to travel!" and asking why we don't!

Not the stream going out at the Sam Adams beer garden right as the game started 🤣🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Mongol Empire 2 time bayba, yavtsgaaya

Boston and Glasgow are working on a formal sister city agreement, citing the two cities' shared love of innovation, arts, culture and history (Henry Knox, of Dorchester Heights cannon fame, was a Scotsman). Hope to formally sign it on Tartan Day, next April.

THE REVIEWS ARE IN!

Based on his expression, when I thrust a copy of Neal Stephenson's first book in front of him as a signing and told him it was my favorite of his

Love them, but sitting on an escalator in South Station is very "our country has free universal healthcare" behavior

RT @RedSoxAsere.twitter.com Hear me out…

I cannot with this Norwegian striker’s haircut

Met my first member of the Tartan Army in the flesh today! Some very Boston woman also spotted him while we were talking and shouted GOOD LUCK TO YUH TEAM, I’M GOIN TO MASS, I’LL PRAY FOR YA #welcometoboston

Uh oh

Happy Pride from my boys! 🏳️‍🌈 Fun fact: an unwise purple dyejob during Pride is canonically the reason why Kerry's hair is so jacked up for the entirety of the book #artsky

This is what the American World Cup should’ve been the whole time, a celebration of our diasporas, a chance for all these countries from around the world to feel at home here because there’s a bit of their home already here

In Boy, with Accidental Dinosaur by @ianmcdonald.bsky.social, Tif is an orphan who just wants to ride a dinosaur under the big top - and in trying to become a dinosaur buckaroo, he catches someone's eye and boy, do those eyes dazzle Tif from the back of a bucking Carnotaur 🦖

“Scots discovering tailgating” could be a real Prometheus stealing fire moment

Here come the Haitians! Up Boylston, heading to the Common. #Boston

The Scots found the Boston cop slide @everyone @edsbs.bsky.social @brianmfloyd.bsky.social @cjzero.bsky.social

Receiving reports of drunken Scotsmen carousing through Boston. Welcome, friends!!

I just—like, sure, being a trillionaire is cool I guess but what’s it all for if you haven’t even seen the wreckage of the titanic firsthand

Big deal, I have people in my life who actually love me
