The Fat Man

Capitalism sucks. Market socialism rules. Known to post about football, beer, flags, boardgames, rugby, dad shit, politics, lacrosse, and maps. I make lots of typos and won't apologize for it.

The community movie night (Zootopia 2)at the local FCS stadium is a great event. However the little rubber bits in the field are annoying as hell in open toes shoes.

My job is a job ass job most of the time, but it has its moments. One is today. When the instructor in the company sponsored class I'm in just said "let's pull 2 rack of ribs and a brisket to start class with. Leave everything else on for now." The meat sweats situation is gonna be problematic.

Commentator in the #IREvJPN in Aus mentioned lots of Irish fans just came up from Sydney for the game. Made me think. For Tier 1 rugby nations it's gotta be Aus that has the most diversity of rugby fans living there right? Like I don't think even England would come close.

Just gave away maybe 50 bricks on Facebook marketplace. Which is only notable because I the guy who got them is an archeologist apparently. Felt very appropriate to give dirty old building materials to him.

Gonna have to disagree on this. Military fly overs have been a thing at US sporting events for decades. This is not new. This is not Trump. You can hate it. That's fine. But it's not a Trump thing. Also fly overs fucking rule.

Of course Trump’s USA organized an entire spectacle of fetishized militarism to prove just how much they don’t understand the whole point of the World Cup As fitting as it is repulsive tbh

Kiddo 2 turns 2 today, so had a very toddler birthday dinner consisting of: -4 clementines -2 bites of pizza -some spaghetti she demanded from my plate then didn't touch -2 cupcakes worth of frosting(she demanded Mom's) and 1/2 of a cupcake. The other half went down her coveralls.

The wild swings in the appetite of little kids is something. Kiddo 2 devoured 8 clementines, 3 burger cookies, and two hot dogs last night. Tonight after yelling about wanting pizza for an hour she had one small slice. Idk man. Kids are fucking weird.
