Bah! Enough with the European schedule, MLS should lean in to the Americas and do an Apertura and Clausura.
BREAKING NEWS: MLS owners have officially voted to flip to a fall-to-spring season, aligning with top leagues around the world, per @paultenorio.bsky.social.

The league will begin play in the new format in 2027.

Title: Delta and the Bannermen Story Number: 146 Season: 24 Screenwriter: Malcolm Kohll Director: Chris Clough Thoughts: If and when Doctor Who returns, they need to make a commitment to returning to making absolutely bonkers stories.  It's a core competency of Doctor Who that hasn't been explored in a long time. Delta and the Bannermen is one of the strangest serials of all time, which is saying something since it comes immediately after…

This past year I lead 33 walking tours of Boston for a grand total of 134 people.

Average group size = 4, largest group size = 25, smallest group size (multiple times) = 1.

this is equally true in metro Boston these days

and, yeah, Massachusetts is the home of terrible drivers, but I haven’t seen anything like this widespread and blithe disregard of red lights until recently

There's a family of coyotes living in an empty lot down the street, and I'm wondering if I should leave an empty crate labeled ACME near the lot to amuse passersby.

this is actually really something. The NY Times stuff is bonkers.
As all this disgusting Epstein shit starts surfacing more and more, I hope we don't lose sight of the fact that apparently every major media outlet knew everything and instead spent their time money and energy attacking the trans community.

Nothing encapsulates the “dedication to preserving and uplifting our history” quite like a file drawer of loose floppy disks. Each helpfully labeled “archives” and nothing else.

Ah yes, let's compete directly with the NFL & college football, as well as hockey and basketball, while still trying to build a fanbase who will be willing to sit in sub-freezing temperatures to watch a game in whiteout conditions.
EVERYONE WHO WANTS THIS IS WRONG AND DUMB
MLS owners are *expected* to vote on flipping to fall-spring calendar at Thursday's BOG meeting. Changes to competition format also expected.

Let's see if it actually comes to a vote, but implications are enormous.

Author: Gretchen Felker-Martin Title: Black Flame Narrator: Dana Aronowitz Publication Info: MacMillan Audio, 2025 Summary/Review: I feel bad about reviewing this book since I don't think I quite "get" what happened in this book.  What I can tell you is that it is psychological and body horror set in New York City in the 1980s set around the protagonist Ellen Kramer.
