Might go read The Road by Cormac McCarthy to cheer myself up

Was Thomas Frank a worse managerial appointment than Christian Gross? Discuss

I hesitate to isolate this but... China will stop us from playing hockey? Seriously, WTAF?

Nailed it:

Italy famously has poor food

Realistically, next season we won't be in Europe so a good time to look at some of our kids - Vuscovic, Moore, Byfield, added to Bergvall, Grey, Simons, Sarr, Porro, Deki

Does anyone know who he gave the armband to? VdV or Solanke? (Or Vic)? #coys

The OCTranspo issue. I am going from Lowertown to Trainyards with my wife. 11 minute drive plus free parking. 55 minutes on transit and $16.80. Even without the reliability issues, unheated platforms at -20 etc, what sane person would take transit if they could drive?

Little ask for any of you interested in football, history or Dublin 8 and surrounds. @historystpats.bsky.social was a big success on Twitter but we left because it is the worst place in the world. Very few have followed us here. It would be great to get a few more follows and some amplification! 🔴⚪️

@iain.coys.social can you please review this from a Hotspur lens?

As BlueSky pre-eminent Maltese urbanist, I need @shawnmicallef.bsky.social 's opinion on this: lovinmalta.com/lifestyle/no...

The left is against a nice cup of tea and saying "mustn't grumble". They oppose orderly queuing, and insincerely saying "Let's get together soon"

Question for the #COYS/#COYSky crowd: Who do you think will be a regular starter/first teamer for Spurs next year from our crop of 18 year-olds: Mikey Moore Luka Vuscovic Mason Melia Jun'ai Byfield None/other

An opportunity here for Canada, without a major prime, to look at how we can grow this industry (working with like-minded partners such as Finland, Poland or Norway) to grow a decentralised prime as described

I'm watching Arsenal-Chelsea and for some reason I thought people might be interested in a newsletter about how the set piece revolution in the Premier League has led to fewer open play goals and tons of six-yard-box shoving www.expectinggoals.com/p/the-set-pi...

Channeling my inner @positivespurs.coys.social - great performance from Simons - Dragusin, for all his limitations, throttled Haaland - These pressure-filled minutes for Byfield will pay off - fantastic response to being booed off the field - Super Dom! #COYS

Simons so good at that exact tackle. Going down and popping up with the ball, turning.

@mddkm.bsky.social how is the heart rate?

That tackle by Palhinha. Awesome stuff.

An actual chance!

I was saying "Keep BOOOOOting it long" (h/t to whoever I stole this from)

The problem j have with this Spurs back 5 is that none of the 3 central defenders are stepping up when the attacking band presses, so it ends up 3v2 in the midfield and always an open outlet.

Ontario's new industry led recycling program leading to worse service, of course. If you need a new bin in Ottawa, you now have to drive to Stittsville or Train yards. If you don't have a car? Tough luck. ottawacitizen.com/news/ottawa-...

As a side note, Gulfstream 500 are certified in Canada.

Are Spurs in a back 5 with Palhinha as RCB?

This is a great opportunity for @maritstilesndp.bsky.social to invite the media to a neighbouring event to talk about the jobs grant millions going to PC insiders, the Greenbelt payoff to Ford's developer friends and more!

So let me see if I understand: assault rifles are ok, whistles... Banned

Kind of the opposite of the Sorites paradox (a grain of sand is not a heap - keep adding grains of sand until you have a heap. Remove one. Do you still have a heap?)

FT 2-2. Some exciting moments, but bad result for Spurs. Not a good performance either. No-one can score apart from Romero and Van de Ven. Conceded two bad goals. Being this bad is not sustainable.

I would like #COYS #COYSKY to agree that, for the sake of @george-miller.org we want Indiana to beat Miami tonight?

On the one hand @occtranspo.bsky.social is 23 minutes late. On the other, the scanner did not work to tap my cc.

Who is going to tell him that you cannot put tariffs on individual EU countries?

Modern history talks about how WW1 was started despite (almost) all the belligerents not wanting a war. Just one thing leading to another. Are we there again?

Spurs Managers by how much I liked them (1994 - ) Liked 1. Poch 2. Jol 3. Redknapp 4. Ange Did not like 5. Ramos 6. Hoddle 7. AVB 8. Mourinho 9. Santini 10. Francis 11. Frank 12. Gross 13. Sherwood 14. Conte 15. Graham #COYS #COYSky

The US administration is EXTREMELY online, and to the extent there is a good way, not in a good way

Nothing like 30 minute headways to incentivize transit use! C/ @occtranspo.bsky.social

According to this, both Abbot and Ajayi are back at Hotspur Way, awaiting new loans - I wonder if either of them stay for cover (but then I guess it means neither can be loaned out again?)
