Too many books. Sounders and Fulham to keep the trophy expectations in balance.

Re the Emily Wilson discourse - her Dad (A N Wilson) was the king of literary feuds. A good family tradition. Best one was his feud with Bevis Hillier who hoaxed him into including a fake letter in his biography of Bejteman where the first letter of each sentence spelt "AN Wilson is a shit".

"They were careless people. They smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made.” This man did incalculable damage, while 'carried away.'

Headline: "Elon Musk says he got 'carried away' with Trump—but still holds onto contentious political views."

It is crazy to say this about the Argentinean team. They're not babies. They might be soft like babies. They might cry like babies. They might even throw little tantrums if they don't get their way. But they're full-ass adults. And their coach should talk to them, actually.

I cannot overstate how much I hate when people are dicks about babies crying in public (especially airplanes). Do you think the parent is having a good time right now?? Do you think they are not aware of the situation??? Are you going to negotiate with a literal infant????
