Watched El Clasico earlier in the day, and anyone who sneers about soccer being the boring sport is getting exactly what they deserve right now with this Niners-Eagles game.

That said, don't let them awe or frighten you. Don't let them make you think this changes everything. They always say that. It doesn't, and they are still weak, and we are still going to win.
I am a poaster at heart and an Internet addict since age 11 but I do recommend taking it slow on here and looking away from the news periodically in coming days. I started the year determined to live well and I plan to maintain that posture. This is wrong, we have to fight it, but we have to live.

Teaching kids, they kinda create your identity. Coworker became Cat Lady bc she saw a kitten pic & got excited. I'm Barca Guy bc I told them I hate Real/Ronaldo 🤷 Eventually you just lean into it. Anyway, assigning a reading on Laszlo Kubala first day back bc ragebait is my 2026 pedagogy lens.

I don't think there's a ballsier book title than Phillip Roth's The Great American Novel. Nothing beats it in my mind.

If you’re looking for one last cool thing to do this year, I think you should buy some books from @malarkeybooks.bsky.social. You can’t buy mine cuz it’s sold out, but that doesn’t matter. There are SO MANY excellent options you can grab right now, many of which are better than mine anyway. Go! Now!
