Just a reminder. The world's game is a great equalizer.

There is no correlation between World Cup performance and socioeconomic factors.

For players, the path to a World Cup squad runs through club football, which operates on a global market that decouples player quality from national circumstances. A Senegalese player honed at Liverpool is no longer shaped by Senegal's 67% poverty rate.

From reading A Gentleman in Moscow I understood that the Russians don’t just appreciate the arts, they take them seriously, as essential as essential as education or civil infrastructure

Fuck bars.

Bring back dinner parties, private social clubs, and hosting at home.

Super Short Story:

A man who always seeks to keep the peace, can find himself suffocating the truth. No amount of smile and ignorance can cover up a truth as big as the one Danny was facing. His wife's had an affair and suffocating her did nothing to keep it from crushing him.

My addiction to book buying vindicated

[Reads with Ravi @readswithravi]

In Japanese, “tsundoku” means collecting books and letting them pile up - not for neglect, but for the joy of knowing they're there, full of untold stories.

@regyperlera At what point in this process did you realize that iPhone's calculator app could do the same?

My Addition to the Urban Dictionary

Instagram Attendant:
Like a bathroom attendant, you are not there to take a piss, your just the soap dispenser, throwing out some likes and views without being there to do anything meaningful for yourself.

Wet Seat:
You never see a wet seat coming, until you sit there long enough for the water to soak into your ass. This is when we enter a situation with a delayed fuse until it finally hits us that we don't want to be here at all.

Middle Class Mentor:
Someone who always has some seemingly wise words to say, but has no accomplishments to show for themselves that provide credibility to their advice.

Knotted Log:
Something that has become so twisted, but it took a long time to get there. You could have seen it coming, you could have done something about it, but you just let it grow to the point that it will never be untangled.

Tick Tick Boomer:
It's always the younger generations addicted to social media right? Wrong. This is a grandparent or parent who is perpetually on the iPad scrolling away like a middle school girl on Tic Tok.

Cassette Craftsman:
If you think you need the most modern tools to get a project done you are mistaken. This is the man that gets something done with whatever he has on hand. No noise cancelling headphones needed, a cassette will do just fine.

Uncomfortably Numb:
The days when we suffer the curse of being inspired but unmotivated. The contradictory position of aspiring to create something beautiful, but yet suffering from resistance when it comes time for the pen to hit the pad.

Paradoxical Proximity:
Living next to a neighbor for years on end and not even knowing their first name. Typically, proximity ensures our paths cross enough to be familiar with one another, but there is always that neighbor who may as well live on the other side of the world.

@urbandictionary,
Please consider my additions.
Thank You,
Plat
