Monk's birthday. Many pieces you can read, but I highly recommend this one by @natechinen.bsky.social. And the amazing recordings by Kimbrough and Okazaki.

BREAKING NEWS The 2026 #NobelPrize in Literature is awarded to the Canadian author Anne Carson, “for her bold and inventive oeuvre that, in playful dialogue with the classical tradition, has created new forms for contemporary literature.”

Please read this piece from the wonderful student-run newspaper @theharvardcrimson.bsky.social at my college. We should all be angry and willing to do something, however small. www.thecrimson.com/article/2026...

I am so proud of Jane Doe for having the strength to file a lawsuit. But I also think of the many survivors who couldn’t. That includes me.

May be, maybe, the #USMNT is actually entering a new generation of special talent. Wow, these kids!!! Excited for the future!
So, this #USMNT, even with a relatively inexperienced roster, CAN indeed play well (technically and intensely). Why were they faffing about in the first half against Mexico then?
The passing accuracy from #USMNT is worse than random at the moment. Really needs some sort of a reboot.
Poor play from the #USMNT so far and poor traffic on this site. Hope both improve!
Kurt Rosenwinkel, Ben Wendel, Ben Street and Jeff Ballard - wow! (Victor's Places has amazing performances)

Unequivocal improvement of outfield players for #USMNT over the past decade, but ridiculous regression of goalkeepers.
Anderson and Bellingham the only two #England players up to snuff. And this was at home as well.
The Wind Shifts, by Wallace Stevens (back in 1917, yet feels so modern!).

How this not a coaching issue from Arteta? If a strategy hasn't worked for 60 minutes and you are 3 goals down, you just keep doing the same thing? Sigh. #Arsenal
#Arsenal, can you start working to bring Kevin Schade on board this Winter transfer window? He has been amazing for #Brentford today. #EPL

Haha, two more ineffectual dribbling specialists (Tel, Kudus) coming on for Spurs and their best player (Bentancur) subbed out. Everton goal incoming.
