French wife I adore, favor Italian soft shoulders and only drink American bourbon. USAF (R) Visca Barca! Fight On! Allez Les Bleus!

#Aftersun is an astonishing film, a delicate study of memory and a father-daughter bond that simultaneously wrecked me and blanketed me in a hazy warmth I can't quite explain. So I spoke with the writer-director Charlotte Wells for help: https://t.co/9hTAiqXvMw @TheAtlantic

Society bombards us with instructions to be happier, fitter and richer. Why have we become so dissatisfied with being ordinary? https://t.co/aUiaNGlcqm

The history of developed countries since 1970 is very discouraging about the prospects of bringing down 8 percent inflation.

We talked about the possibility of a power struggle inside the GOP between pro-Ukraine and pro-Putin Republicans.

Snyder explains why a big, big factor here is Tucker Carlson:

That’s great but Perhaps it can focus on improving its public infrastructure, cutting the bloat out of bureaucratic and underperforming (LAUSD) and optimizing budgets/taxes so I’m not funding every bleeding heart liberal initiative lest it lose more of its tax base.

Against the timeless media narrative of earthquakes, fires, droughts, homelessness and CEOs fleeing to Texas for a tax- and regulation-free lifestyle, California increasingly owns the 21st century, catching Germany as the No. 4 economy.

The party of (fake) values. Family values - see Herschel Walker. Fiscal conservatism - see Liz Truss. American (NATO) military supremacy - see Kevin McCarthy.

Everything is for sale for the right price. Even your children’s lives - see Greg Abbot

“Republicans took a beat, and then decided they didn’t care,” @MollyJongFast writes about the scandals surrounding Herschel Walker and Ryan Zinke. “Power is the only value this post-policy Republican Party cares about.”

“They have to keep going until something breaks, and they’re hoping that what breaks is something on the inflation side and the economic side,” rather than a breakdown in the functioning of global financial markets.

Britain’s prime minister is trapped in a quagmire of her own making—and two fires are burning in markets. Read why Liz Truss’s premiership is damaged beyond repair: https://t.co/UItgVOppAh

@TheFootballInd This is silliness. Barca didn’t lose because of its attacking mids. It lost because its top 3 CB’s were out, the backups were terrible (except balde) and the pivot is no longer top flight. Essentially the entire back 5 went missing.

[WestSlides @SlideyStyle]

@CholoColcho Bollocks. No club is a CL team without a backline. We played Inter 2x missing our top 3 CB's.

[WestSlides @SlideyStyle]

@muhammadbutt I just hope Xavi learns from this. His subs were questionable. Should have brought on Fati and Balde after the 2nd Inter goal and pulled Dembouz instead of Raphina. Dembouz decision making in the 2nd was atrocious and Balde changed the attack as soon as he stepped on the pitch.

[WestSlides @SlideyStyle]

@muhammadbutt Busi doesn't get a pass. Pique was god awful but Busi started the horrible sequence that led to Eric not even looking for the ball by giving it away not once but two times in the MF. These old dudes have to be run out of town. I'd rather watch youngsters from Barca B.
