This whole snafu has had me defending Blatter and Platini. In my opinion, that's truly FIFA's biggest sin. Anyway, it's been 12 long years since I shot my shot at this. Feels like I'm still screaming into the void.
Sonja, what's it like living in Toronto at noon on a random Monday?
Since spending the weekend at my parents, Max has taken to saying "what the hell?" Except, he always uses it perfectly and within context, so I'm just going to let it be.
It's Pirate Week at my son's camp and today they got to make their own treasure chests. In his? Jewels and fire. Feel free to use that for your band's name.

Sonja Cori Missio@sonjamissio.bsky.social · 4w ago"iT wAs A dIvE!" Okay, first, I legit think only North Americans (Canada / USA) and the English dont "get" diving. Second, it's not just about what's being called, it's also about what's not being called. It's cringe.
Thanks to AMAZING people, I reached my goal so I upped it to $100 for every year I've worked (10 yrs = $1K). But, here's the twist: right now every donation is doubled. So, $10 becomes $20, $50 becomes $100 etc. Every bit helps! I am so grateful for your support (financially or motivationally).

What happened to Berterame? I've watched it 10x and I still don't know. I hope he's okay. The immediate reaction, ambulance, etc. was scary.
I just learned that your donation is matched if you're thinking about donating (and that would be swell!): fundraise.nyghfoundation.ca/fundraisers/...

I'm raising money for a cause close to my heart and would love your support.

Sorry, did the Apple commentators just say they like the hydration breaks?
I need someone to help me find a Filipino national kit ahead of the WWC. That I can get in/sent to Canada.

What's been the best change/adaption about this Men's World Cup? And why is it "the whole stadium counting down from 10 to kickoff?" I hope we keep that. It's great. You're wrong if you think it isn't.
Unrelated: is one of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse me cheering for England?
Oof. Even if the Toronto photo is edited, it's not that far off. It looks like every warm light in the city has been turned on. Or, that you're wearing high contrast orange coloured glasses. The sinister brother of rose coloured glasses.

RE: last post, this is what it looks like outside. Funny enough, that picture is taken on Lansdowne, 3 streets from me. I realize this is an edited photo, it just hits close to home. Like, literally. Speaking of, I can't take my own photos because my camera keeps autocorrecting the colour.

Just went to Tim Hortons (as in, I was outside) and it felt like we were back in March 2020. So eerie out: seems dead even if you see people, no one is talking or making eye contact. Guilt hanging in the air as heavy as the smoke. Fucking hell.
Article that popped up on my Insta feed that I just can't get over. Am I insane?! He is a fucking child for Chrissakes. 48 hours ago, he couldn't even legally drink in Ontario. If you're putting an entire nation on the back OF A TEENAGER WITH BRACES, you're a joker, bud.
2-0, the most dangerous lead in football. She mumbled to herself as she sits here gleefully emotionless.
Holy shit soccer is a lot of fun when you're not emotionally tied to it and your heart isn't in your butt. WHY HASNT ANYONE TOLD ME THIS BEFORE.
Question for people who know about cards (or pass this along to someone who does) I have this. If I had the chance to get it signed, does it improve or wreck the grade of the card? I realize the value of the autograph, I'm strictly speaking grading. TIA
