I loved this tweet of hers. Beyond being an amazing athlete, she seems like she has a pretty funny sense of humour!

So the commentator here was saying that the turtle represents the link between the here and the hereafter and that it was a tribute to those who aren’t here to enjoy the games anymore. It just makes me really nostalgic for the days when I watched skiing with my grandmother.

Omg between Cameroooon and Halleloo, I could screeeeam. Just NO.

It was actually kind of awesome? The concert part was amazing.

I think you’re right about them painting themselves into a corner. The competitors know they have to compete for x km, so they train for x km because the point is being able to complete the task at hand better than the rest of the field rather than just being able to go further than everyone else.

There’s just a couple extra letters! It’s ok!

It’s not even just Jez anymore. It’s over at the Root too now. Like just stfu already, dude.... It’s exhausting.

:-( The sprints and individuals can definitely be like that because you have 100 competitors starting at 30 second intervals.

Excuse me, but what’s with the biathlon hate?? The sprint/individual are kinda boring, but the pursuit, mass start and relays are great!

Sanka, ya dead??

Biathlon, going fast on narrow skis with no edge AND shooting. I don’t understand why it doesn’t get more love.

Exactly, I have no doubt that the human race isn’t about to totally die out in the next 100 years, but like, it’s going to really suck for whoever drew the short straw. Food production is in the hand of a few, climate change is real and there’s no guaranteeing my offspring will be “haves” rather than “have nots”.

Goddesses!

Ours is VERY food motivated. So as long as you have a treat, and he gets what you want him to do, he’s pretty quick about picking things up!

they are very mini! Here’s one AND it’s wearing sneakers!

I have trained my cat! Not very much, but he will highfive for fancy treats.

Omg, I have to google that!!! Thank you!

I’m mostly just jealous you guys can watch it! Our only option over on the other side of the pond is torrenting :(

*eyeroll forever*

Oh 100%. It’s infuriating.
