Got home from work, went to use my bathroom, immediately dive bombed by a moth with my pants down. Just now, trying I’m trying to have a relaxing bath and another moth dive bombs me. What the fuck! I’m trying to be chill, but they keep coming after me in my own home. Get out!
I’ll be on my own here - this is why all those other hip drops should be punished heavily regardless of the injury severity on the end of it. The risk of career altering/ending injuries is so much higher during these tackles
i will not be gaslit into believing that, that hyrox lady is some inspiring example of perseverance and overcoming adversity. she is disgusting. that was disgusting. and genuinely one of the sickest displays of individualism i’ve seen in a long time.
Obviously I haven't seen any Census data but I after seeing some tweets about it I'd be really surprised if the results didn't show we need to massively increase spending on education.
Got some spare time? Why not go give blood or plasma - you’ll not only walk out with a feeling of having done something good, but you’ll also get snacks and a free gift every 5 donations. Of course I had to go with the water bottle today, you can never have enough! #LifebloodAU
Ongoing shortages of type O and A blood supplies have prompted an urgent call for people to donate immediately, as peak winter illness keeps donors away and emergency orders remain high. https://t.co/sobpGsoPIl #LifebloodAU
I've never advocated for paid access on climbs like Alpe d'Huez, and I won't, but I do think a maximum capacity should be considered.
Today, the person who fell in front of the UAE Team Emirates car, who had to brake, causing a head-on collision for Einer Rubio... that person didn't do that on purpose.
Sad reality is, that's a consequence of too many people pushing to see the riders come by, and while it's amazing to see many people share the passion of our sport, it shouldn't result in fear and safety problems for the riders.
For the entire Alpe d'Huez to be barriered off, you'd need 26 KMs of barriers, I assume that's logistically impossible. But that doesn't mean solutions shouldn't be found. #TDF2026
You have to admit one thing about the Australian broadcast of the World Cup.
SBS and its streaming platform did a cracking job under the weight of demand IMO.
Probably the first time you didn’t hear about a the platform buckling or having major issues.
There's an absurd anti-Argentina misinformation campaign that's been running at full steam on the media. Here is the perfect example.
The media claims the Argentina team turned its back to Spain as a sign of disprespect. This is false. The team was in tears looking towards Argentina's core supporters section, where the fans were singing to honor them. They were all mourning. I was there, and can share videos of the moment.
Besides, there's no requirement nor tradition stating the losing team must stay on the pitch to watch the winners' trophy celebration. This is nonsensical. Losing teams don't do that.
Da un poco de miedo ver qué tan rápido se puede deshumanizar a todo un país. Y lo peor es cómo construyen el relato siempre de la misma manera: el europeo puede cargar, provocar, hacer chicanas y vivir el fútbol con intensidad, pero cuando lo hace un latinoamericano, de golpe se convierte en un salvaje, un soberbio, un sucio o un incivilizado y no es casualidad, es el mismo estereotipo de siempre, solo que reciclado para las redes sociales.
En cuestión de días pasamos de discutir de fútbol a ver miles de personas justificando insultos xenófobos e, incluso, comentarios deseando que maten argentinos, como si eso fuera una reacción normal o graciosa. Si bien este tuit específicamente no pide lo anterior, es parte de los posteos que construyen la narrativa, y cómo no, viene de otro latinoamericano.
Porque eso es lo más decepcionante, ver a otros latinoamericanos subiéndose a esa ola creyendo que esta vez el blanco es Argentina. ¿En serio piensan que los que consumen o difunden ese discurso hacen una diferencia tan grande entre un argentino, un uruguayo, un mexicano o un colombiano? Hoy genera likes pegarle a Argentina. Mañana será otro. Es más, ni siquiera deben saber que existen tantos países de habla hispana. El mecanismo es exactamente el mismo.
Y sí, los argentinos podemos ser insoportables para festejar. Podemos ser soberbios, cargosos y romper los huevos. Pero una cosa es criticar una actitud y otra muy distinta es instalar una narrativa donde todo un pueblo merece ser tratado como inferior. Ahí deja de ser una cargada y pasa a ser xenofobia.
Lo irónico es que Argentina, con todos sus defectos, también es un país que históricamente recibió millones de inmigrantes y donde muchísima gente de otros países cuenta que fue recibida como una más. Eso no significa que no exista discriminación, pero demuestra que una sociedad es mucho más compleja que el personaje que hoy quieren vender en internet.
Lo preocupante no es solo una publicidad o un meme. Es la velocidad con la que una campaña logra convencer a miles de personas de que deshumanizar a un pueblo entero está bien. Porque cuando empezás a justificar el odio hacia millones de personas por su nacionalidad, el problema ya no es el fútbol. Y si hoy te parece gracioso porque el objetivo son los argentinos, no te sorprendas cuando mañana el blanco sea cualquier otro país latinoamericano
the fact that the woke crowd doesn't realise that is baffling to me.
Spain can commit 21 fouls in the world cup final and still be called classy while Argentina gets called scum and thugs for committing just 3 more
England can park the bus against Mexico and Argentina but Ghana and Paraguay are "anti football" for employing the same tactics
It's elitist and xenophobic
