You act like these things are pie in the sky impossibilities. Do you know there are already government run grocery/liquor stores that function quite well in the US?
Free buses? Only in "communist strongholds" like Kansas City, Boston, & a handful of other cities across the US...

For #Beşiktaş, getting rid of Ox, Al-musrati, Onana, Amir, & Élan via loan or sale, would put them in position to have 3 extra foreign slots to fill out the squad below with.
One of them would have to be below 21 though so realistically the club might have to sell one more foreign player as well.

These were the end of season power rankings for anyone curious.
(Not much of an international/Beşiktaş community on Bluesky yet evidently 🥲🤣)

I'd like to believe ai is responsible for this and I won't be checking to confirm because the alternative might be too much for me to handle.

That's a barely comprehensible word salad. Also verifiably false. The highest number of US soldier casualties occurred in WWII. Highest rate of death: the civil war.
The conflicts in Afghanistan & Iraq are 2 separate wars. The one in Afghanistan was long but Trump was in it his whole 4 years too.

Novel set to be done w/ line edits in June... Can't wait to start trying to get it published... NOT. That shit is mortifying. I just want to write!
Beşiktaş provide zero chill & the Knicks are still finding an identity and the playoffs are starting. 🥲
Daredevil is 🔥 btw

Wrote a draft of my novel's synopsis. My editor still likes my work. 🙏
The Knicks beat the Bucks last night without their best 3 point guards. Beşiktaş beat Galatasaray today & made this season relevant again!
And yet the world is still falling apart... 🥲

Seismic shifts in the Turkish #SuperLig today.
On a day most #Beşiktaş fans thought they'd lose ground in the battle for 3rd, Samsunspor collapses & the Black Eagles pull off a huge upset vs. #Galatasaray
Also Sivasspor did themselves a huge favor in the battle to avoid relegation w/ a decisive W.

No surprises today in the #SuperLig (Shout out to protesters in #Turkey btw).
Kayseri crushing fellow relegation candidates Hatayspor is more surprising than Konya beating Gaziantepspor, which imo should surprise nobody.
Konya is ascendant; they've beaten Beşiktaş & Trabzonspor in recent weeks. 👀

"Beşiktaş's request for a foreign referee for the Galatasaray derby was rejected by the TFF."
Interesting that Fenerbahçe was allowed this request. Maybe we also need Mourinho to cry to the press for a few weeks to help us get our way.

Anyway, my dad was a huge Roma guy so I've inherited some of your taste for Serie A. From the wall of junk behind my desk:

The fact they aren't good enough to produce premier league-level talent (yet tbf?) only strengthens my point.

I'd argue you reveal the extent to which you aren't following the rest of the world.
Look at a list of players who join the mls/where they come from & consider that most teams only let players go if/when they haven't panned out. I personally watched zaha become expendable in Turkey.
