Going through my photos and remembered that I took a photo on the way back from the dentist. I was stood at the bus stop and saw two pigeons pecking at splat of pink vomit. It seemed fitting of the moment in time we’re enduring.

If there is one lesson that history has taught us, it's that invading a country with a lot of ice and an entire culture built around living in snow always goes well for the invading force

Although marshmallows and candy floss are both, basically, just fluffy clouds made out of sugar, marshmallows are elite and candy floss is just annoying to grapple with

Ratcliffe’s farewell makes it sound not so mutual.
Just a few days after her wedding on Broad Street, too. (Word is some familiar USWNT faces came to town for it.)

Pointed out weeks ago that a reported power struggle last spring saw NWSL's sporting director & head of marketing both depart. The chatter focused on the marketing vacuum, & it drove me quietly bonkers..

When I was younger, I was too short to see myself in the bathroom mirror, so when I needed to brush my hair after a bath, I'd have to stand on the toilet (lid down), and once, predictably, I slipped, fell forward and hit my face on the sink, giving myself a black eye.
What's the most ridiculous way you ever hurt yourself? I got out of the tub, skidded in water and tripped over the toilet. Ankle sprain.
