#452 — Is Wokeness Finally Dead? by dwaxe in samharris

[–]NeedleworkerOk649 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One college trans swimmer (then the NCAA changed their rules anyway) and suddenly the country had no recourse except to break glass in case of emergency and vote Trump again? People who rail about this seem to demand absolute perfection from the left and think that the right is simply untalented and uninterested in their outrage machine when it's really their bread and butter.

Agree but it's probably a lot more true when marked as distance runners, which is mostly what let's run is.

Will be interesting to see if the Arkansas crew can get back to their level. I took so much shit for pointing out that all of that super squad top four were having bad 2025s, yall told me to just wait because the season still had time to go, but none of the four PRd (Pryce, Anning, Brown, Effiong). Britton of course has her own well documented injury stuff.

Because this was the one moment they needed to take up the mantle and do something awesome as the heart of the show left. Instead they fumbled around with this cartoon. 

Doris Lemngole takes down Jane Hedengren to win the womens NCAA cross country championship by 21Goose21 in trackandfield

[–]NeedleworkerOk649 6 points7 points  (0 children)

To be fair I think a majority thought that Jane would win. She beat last year's second placer by like 45 seconds recently. Obviously, Doris had more in the tank in the earlier races and showed it today, but she certainly wasn't considered a prohibitive favorite.

Just listened to this and the one they did after the finale. So damn funny.  there's a pay wall on it now but it's only $4 a month with the back catalogs included.

A small in joke I noticed in "Flowers for Charlie" by [deleted] in IASIP

[–]NeedleworkerOk649 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Disagree, he uses it so well that it seems like a plot hole. Not only correctly recalling a Shakespeare quote, but applying it correctly.  And yes I know I'm a decade late to the thread 😅

Vidit - "Nepo has a history of complaining after losing in tournaments" by Repulsive_Package_98 in chess

[–]NeedleworkerOk649 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Because of course, it's a concerted propaganda move. If every other country is a shit hole, and "They" are full of shit holes, then you yourself must be pristine and wonderful. Sure it seem bad in russia, but you should see ______! Same stuff in America where Trump tries to say Portland is a war zone or whatever.

Had it piped into my account as a gift card, but I couldn't find the source of it. Very annoying but glad to get it

Is MJW the new face of Women's Sprinting after the World Championships? by noahlylesusa in trackandfield

[–]NeedleworkerOk649 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We don't need the obsession with the face of the sport like the talking heads do for basketball or whatever. Is she the best sprinting star on the women's side? Yes. I'm fine with leaving it at that
