The US definitely got some favorable calls but the refereeing was bad on both sides. Germany got away with a ton of contact in the first half and (if I remember correctly) only one tackle on Rapinoe got carded. It looked like Germany’s plan was to knock around Rapinoe and Morgan early to get them rattled. As far as…

Now that we have put the fake-eyelash criticism to bed we can concentrate on Leroux’s real problem. THAT DURN NECK TATTOO.

This really needed to be said. Not every show needs to be the most intellectually and philosophically deep art you’ve ever seen.

I’m surprised by how much anti-Cleveland sentiment the finals loss and articles like this are bringing out. I’m all for some good ole schadenfreude but this is Boston level hate.

I think the precedent is set at calling a black guy a “cornball”.

Your trolling of the grit-lovers is transparent and greatly appreciated.

I doubt his technique would work in this age of extreme surveillance.

Teenagers walking shoulder-to-shoulder in groups of five is the most maddening thing in the sidewalk universe. I’m always tempted to red-rover my way through.

As far as whether or not the scene had any narrative value going forward: It’s tough to say since we haven’t seen what is to come from it. In regards to fitting into the narrative we have seen so far I thought it worked. This whole season we have been been seeing Sansa taking more and more agency over her own life.…

I wonder if it is simply a mis-translation or if Diego actually confused anarchy with monarchy.

Anyone have stories about attending ball games in foreign countries? I am jealous of how much fun Korean and Caribbean games look.

Before trying therapy in college, I always thought "why do I need therapy? I can talk to my girl, father or friend about my problems." Thing is, even if you feel like you are being honest with people close to you, you are still filtering your honesty through all of the social expectations you have with those people.…

Hiding your fasting from public view in order to remove obstacles in getting closer to the Lord is also important! It's the sermon that is given at every Ash Wednesday mass I've ever attended.

Good on you for finding something that works for you! I'm not trying to attack this guy. Just to point out the reason for lenten fasting is not to open discussions or joke about being hungry. It is for quiet, personal reflection.

Dude, we are talking about a religious tradition within a strict organization that has large debates over the kind of wafer that can be used in communion. Catholicism is all about pedantry.

This is why I lost the faith. It's not about forming any kind of personal connection to God. Just go through the motions. These Ash Wednesday selfies will look great!

Mentioning it at all goes against the biblical teaching. Saying you are hungry is "putting on a gloomy face". Just sayin, if you believe enough to fast you should probably do it correctly.

Humblebragging about fasting pretty much defeats the (biblical) point of the whole thing. As I understand it, fasting is the denial of physical yearning in order to concentrate on a personal, spiritual connection. The quote I always heard growing up is "Whenever you fast, do not put on a gloomy face as the hypocrites…

I believe Jim Gaffigan put it nicely when he said making the bed is like tying your shoes once you take them off.
