Saying something louder, longer, more times, and with more anger doesn’t make it more true.
I already posted this once, but I think it most succinctly summarizes my feelings. You can keep screaming into the void. I’m not listening. And neither, I’m pretty sure, is anyone else
Hey bestie, can you help me find your soccer stats? Because a Google search with your maiden name, high school, and town was bone dry. Thanks in advance!

Honeysuckle, I proudly admit that I haven’t ever played soccer. Even I know that citing “on the bench” as a reasonable water break is crazy talk.
The word “break” implies an interruption in play. Not before or after. At that point, they might as well have a full steak dinner.
@470Netti I grew up watching/playing sports with quarters. It seems like such a nothing burger to me. Until I hear actual WC players complain, I remain adamantly pro hydration!
People complaining about effing water breaks? Google rhabdomyolsis and get back to me. Or, you know, learn basic human physiology. Heaven forbid a sport take steps to protect its players.

Most parents don’t have to steal videos of their kids from TikTok.
@DebbieSzalanski I’ve lost count of how many Covid vaccines I’ve gotten. I’m so freaking tired of the virus being used as a political weapon in either direction. Simone Biles uploaded a video of her flipping around in her backyard a few days ago. No indication that she’s been ill. Such a stretch
@DebbieSzalanski I just… from a clinical standpoint, jumping from the teensiest bit of info to her detailed explanation… like just go to medical school at that point. If you can diagnose people you’ve never met just from knowing their HR, you’d quickly become famous and rich
