Ah I see now. I had that blocked by one of the adblock scripts I have running. I might have to reconfigure things.

The newswires are different all of a sudden. They all appear on one page that you can scroll down with a continue reading button for ones over a certain length. I'm not sure how you even comment on them at the moment.

Galandum Galundaina - "Nós tenemos muitos nabos" ("We have lots of turnips")

I got a Google problem notification for this?

Not sure where Dothraki kings will marry Westerosi heiresses now.

Yeah it isn't like it is twice as hard to score a goal away. What they should do is count home goals at 0.8, away goals at 1.0 and expand ties to a series of 13 games (5 home, 5 away, 3 played at neutral sites on different continents). That way you could still account for the difficulty of playing away from home,…

RIP the Azure Window.
It's still 2016 in Malta.

Alves actually left on a free transfer. Presumably age was a factor, but I still think he had something to contribute to FCB.

Forking great game.

"She was just a Tartar's daughter, who was just a little smarter than a Tartar's daughter ever oughter be."

The game just keeps getting weirder as time goes on. It started out fairly normal with just the occasional incest to spice things up.

And my father became a eunuch to cure his cancer.

Last time I played CK2 I accidentally almost blew up my cousin, the Duke of Connacht, in a failed alchemical experiment. Now he's a 45 year old, one-eyed homosexual who just recently married a gluttonous 18 year old common woman for reasons unknown. Maybe I can explode his wife next time and he can find a better…

They're still chaotic evil, they just have really low INT, WIS, and CHA scores which gives all their rolls a -2 malus.

The Trump presidency

In the South at least a lot of people have iced tea makers which function kind of like an electric kettle with an attached pitcher. I also own a stovetop kettle, but haven't ever used an electric one.

Xander settles into being one of the more consistently funny supporting characters while also being awful some of the time. I don't know if I was entirely sold on him until "The Zeppo" in Season 3.

I'm going to try something.

That bassist is great. I found out his name is Gary W King, here he is playing at Montreux in the 80s. (Little bit jammy, obviously)

There appears to be a lot of Brazilians. I think the J-League also brought over a lot of Brazilians when they were trying to raise the profile and quality of their league. Even Zico played a few years there at the tail-end of his career. Not sure why that is (besides there being a lot of good Brazilians, obviously).
