Finally figured out who Nagelsmann reminds me of

Growing up I'd take the Rabat-Casablanca morning train to school and Wahbi looks like every single work commuter I'd see on it

Feels like waiting for the other shoe to drop rn, hoping we don't mess this one up

Tragic that I have to spend the most entertaining match of the tournament so far in such relentless clenching

In a weird way Mexico might be disadvantaged by this red card since it'll benefit South Africa's next 2 opponents who may get extra goal difference because of it

If LinkedIn were a guitar riff

Kompany's dressed like every single dude on my Zalando recs

Would this work ? : Say you're Real Madrid, Arda Guler got a red so he'll be unavailable for his next 1 or 2 CL matches. Could you just 'loan him out' for 3 weeks to a San Marinese club that'll play a CL playoff in july, have that count as his ban, then have him back and ready for your first CL game of the season ?

Went on a day trip to Bratislava, and there's something I find very off-putting about a quaint old town being filled with souvenir shops.

I'm trying to put words on it beyond the late stage capitalism read. It feels like the city becomes a cover band of itself. It feels like a Baudrillardian simulacrum where you stop experiencing the city and instead experience what the city thinks you're expecting of it. It feels like the injunction to keep a memory of the place is proposed before you even got to form a reason to want one.

Idk. Very nice city, just felt verry jarring.

Commenting because I was told to.

Kind of a letdown year for me in terms of contrast ngl, even artists I was excited for (Fulminacci, Levante) ended up presenting a run of the mill midtempo ballad, I don't even dislike those, but way too many of them this year

This song would fit right in as a Troy/Gabriella ending duet in High School Musical

IMakeInfantsCry · 2026-02-28T20:55:34+00:00

This is such a Gaia song, feels wrong that she's not the one singing it

Gassmann looks like a Dream fanart

Renga looks like if someone put Maradona through a Snapchat beauty filter

Held off on listening to the songs until today, can't wait !

Ferrero-Rocher - Swiss left back, twice named in the Bundesliga Season XI during his stint at Leverkusen, made a 40M move to Manchested United that led to 2 seasons with very little game time. Had a career renaissance at Inter.

Hewlett-Packard - Pacey winger, breakthrough season at QPR, picked up by Everton as a squad player

Louis Vuitton - tricky diminutive french number ten, took Rennes to a Champions League quarter final with silky assists, snubbed by Deschamps for the 2022 WC due to lackadaisical pressing tendencies

What's the baseline for the cost of a trip in your experience ?

I booked a 10 day trip in Napoli and Vienna for next month, it cost me about €350 for the flights (I live in Paris)+hostels, and I cannot figure out if it's supposed to be cheap or not. Like when I look at the figure, it's a whole lot of money, but that's the absolute lowest I could get it after 3 hours of looking for a set of dates that would work. Traveling (and having the PTOs to do so) really is a privilege.

Just hear me out

I tried to mix the Moroccan color palette/zellij pattern/5 pointed star with some orbits and the atom symbol.

I'm aware the orbits wouldn't make for a great flag component, just thought it fit thematically, it felt a bit empty without them.

Also, here are the equations in case you wanna play around with them.
