@BenK2361290 @markvalorian Not taking sides, but I think the point OP was making with the video was that Balogun didn’t “tackle” or “challenge” the opponent. The Bosnian player made the challenge. And the ref made no call on either player at the time.

@w3stw3stw3st @joeclowery @Backheeled Stage wise, yes but that misses the team’s vast quality improvement this cycle. USMNT has won a World Cup game only six times at five previous World Cups going back 32 years. Three victories alone by this USMNT in this World Cup - which isn’t finished yet

@ChrisCillizza There race hasn’t moved slightly toward Trump; a selection of
polls which few have any genuine confidence in have slightly moved.

@JulianRoepcke I benefit from and appreciate your posts but detect condensation occasionally directed at certain groups e.g. your series of posts which appeared to deride the Kursk advance in the early day with mocking “Kursk is burning” references versus what was occurring in Donetsk

After teaching philosophy for 50+ years, he says there are 10 books you MUST read before dying

Here’s his list, and a run-down of what each book can teach you about the pursuit of life’s Truth, Beauty, and Goodness:

Previously unseen details of human brain structure revealed. Featured image: a single neuron with ~5,600 of the nerve fibers that connect to it.

I feel overwhelming awe at nature's complexity and order.

[Yo-Yo Ma @YoYo_Ma]

This version of Bach’s first cello suite was recorded live in the Great Smoky Mountains. I’ve always thought of Suite No. 1 as “Nature at Play,” so it was a dream to play it with the birds, the trees, and the rushing brook. ▶️ https://t.co/AQn2pIuZQM

Rhyton drinking cup in the shape of a dog's head. The beautiful vessel is attributed to the prolific ancient Greek potter, Brygos, who was active in Athens between 490-470 BC and whose fine work is known from around 200 surviving pieces.
Intentionally made without a flat base, these ornate animal-head rhytons could not be set down on a table until completely drained of their contents. After downing the last of his wine, an ancient drinker could place the cup upside-down and be greeted by the face of the faithful hound.
Found in tomb 16 of the Celle necropolis near Falerii. 5th century BC, National Etruscan Museum in the Villa Giulia, Rome.

@AmbJohnBolton Serious question: why did you choose to work for him? Your damning (and correct) assessment was obvious to everyone with critical faculties.

This is one of the most heartfelt, articulate and revealing sports interviews I’ve ever heard, and executed in a second language. Respect

@NBCSCycling Tragic! The time bonus - and maybe the Tour victory - was taken from Pogacar.
