I'm not sure why a touch on the ball from Pope means he can take Gyokeres down. It's still a foul.

Based pub.

More businesses, especially ones where you spend time there, should offer this. Just a pity none are sold secure gold, which would prevent someone's insurance from paying out if the bike was stolen, but a good start.

But I'm not allowed to say that rural areas are shitholes, cultural & economic dead zones filled with highways & chain stores, kept alive entirely through ongoing subsidization from the very city dwellers they demonize.
Here’s the RNC asking its donors if they’ve ever been to the big city, which it calls “rat and feces infested gang headquarters for illegal immigrants.” (Many of its donors live in big cities.)

Disassociating myself from the USMNT has been the best thing I’ve done for my mental health in months.

A couple weeks ago I had the opportunity to travel across a Europe for 10 days. I want to start a thread of some great but simple urban design elements which I think could be easily replicated in the US.

All cities have the same choices. You can choose the chaos of cars or public spaces you'd let your kid freely run through, but you can't have both.

10 days of traveling across Europe and all I lost was a water bottle and my glasses. Great success!

we are so dumb.
The CDC will no longer collect data on injuries caused by car crashes related to manufacturer's defects, and other defect-related injuries that don't result in crashes.

In 2011, a stretch of I-195 that ran right through the heart of Providence was demolished, freeing up 26-acres of Downtown adjacent land for new housing and an innovation district, reconnecting neighborhoods divided by the highways construction.

A former French military base, Vauban is a thriving neighbourhood of 5,500 residents connected to Freiburg town centre by bus and light rail. Built in the late 1990s as a radical experiment in low-car living, it forgoes virtually all on-street parking in favour of active, green, and social spaces. 🧵
