enjoying imagining the discussion among editors in which they determined if this ought to be pluralized as Spider-Mans, Spider-Men, or Spiders-Man

Homer (not a real person, wrote about inscrutable Mediterranean culture) was the Elena Ferrante of his day

A small reminder of what we really like about this here city share.inquirer.com/485lES

Shipwrecks, ice football and igloos for dogs … the digitisation of Frank Hurley’s photographs shows the heroic trek more clearly – and unlocks some remarkable new details

Compared to my first camera (Canon Rebel XT), modern mirrorless are basically magic. But I cannot figure out why Canon doesn't include built-in GPS chips any more. One of my favorite features on the 6D and such a pain now. Smartphone app is garbage. Ended up with a Garmin just to log locations.

From the Telemundo broadcast just now by the commentary team during a slow-mo replay of the goal and a shot of Haaland with his hair down: "This is a perfect goal. The ball didn't touch anything." In exaggerated, gravely, dramatic voice: "TERMINATOR"

The rig I'm on has put up first aid guides that were made with AI. Wouldn't bother with CPR there, would be more concerned by the fact is head isn't connected to his body

Cape Verdeans are now honorary Philadelphians because that was basically ROCKY. They weren't "supposed" to be there, much less going the distance with the champions and the GOAT, who had to give it everything they've got just to eek out a win in overtime. Bravo.

Who would have known Argentina would have so much trouble battling a remote Atlantic archipelago?

Photo peeps, what kind of organization/editing software are you using? I fully de-Lightroomed myself without really having a backup plan of "Apple Photos until I figure it out." No complex needs, just being able to process files (mostly JPEG but some RAW)

If elected new President of Soccer, I'd immediately make some changes. 1. Unlimited substitutions, hockey style 2. Flopping is a red card. Right away 3. All games require at least three goals (no ties) 4. Cool goals are worth two points 5. Each team can throw one punch a game

I had a dream about the TI-86 graphing calculator. This is pretty typical.
