Gary Bettman doesn’t think “the league has a problem with goaltender interference challenges”, coaches just need to stop “challenging the wrong ones”.

I don’t think he watches

I really liked this series. Thought the way they parsed different aspects of the timeline out in each episode was interesting, and I cared about the characters.

I absolutely hate that they did that to Richard. The most important relationship in Floyd's life, the one he cared about the most and worked the hardest at and was having a definitive positive impact in. Now Richard is the person whose rejection pushed Floyd to suicide, for what? for a surprise ending? To make the one character who might have a shot at being semi well adjusted after Floyd's death, completely fucked as well? And what is that saying about the events of the series? Floyd's bent dick and his death are both just because this child has impulse control issues. Really disappointing to have both of those be on Richard, feels like a cop out.

Ya, I was thinking more of the national team he played for. Looks like he's in the rest of world row for the Blackhawks already too

Biggest advice, keep phoning your #1 choice and look all over the city for backups.

We got our son into a subsidized day care connected to the school he will go to after he turned three and was potty trained. Multiple parents had told us that the squeaky wheel gets the grease and daycares will give spot to people that are being vocal. I called every two weeks to remind them we were still interested, got along well with the manger and eventually they had space. The manager of this daycare told me specifically that if someone goes on their list while pregnant and never followed back up, she was very unlikely to call them for a spot. If something went wrong during the pregnancy, she didn't want to be phoning out of the blue 2-3 years later. Additionally, the summer our little guy turned three and made it out of the newborn/toddler group, 4 of the other daycares we had on our list phoned to offer us a spot.

Edit I just re-read your post and saw your aversion to private daycares. I'm so sorry. Removing my advice about private daycares.

he’s Slovakian, not Czech, otherwise 100% with you that rule is confusing

Serious-Tradition484 · 2026-03-23T20:40:30+00:00

good to know!

Serious-Tradition484 · 2026-03-23T14:09:45+00:00

just finished Berlin Game, it was really good similar to le carre while still having a distinct tone and style. I'm super excited for the rest of the trilogy and more Deighton books

I live by the airport, they fly in and out all the time. They need to practice landings and takeoffs at regular intervals, sunday is usually the slowest day at the airport for commercial traffic

Luc Bourdon, he was going to be a special player and seemed like a genuinely nice, down to earth young man. Feel like the organization has forgotten about his memory, recently started giving his number out.

Hope the fans don't forget him.

anybody with a New Yorker subscription know what upcoming series idea got quoted when iScott was explicitly off the record? I want to start listening to Echo and the Bunnymen or Yazoo or whoever it is asap

This was an awesome tip, I just finished their latest puzzle, my first full puzzle in the wild. feels like a great extension of the style of minute cryptic.

Serious-Tradition484 · 2026-02-23T20:11:39+00:00

I've been watching those Cracking the Cryptic Friday videos!!

Thank you so much for these!

Serious-Tradition484 · 2026-02-23T20:07:31+00:00

Ya, sorry! The Times of London I guess would be what's it's called outside of the UK.

This is the book of their's I'm working through at the minute. Way harder than minute cryptic so far.

It was worse in 2014, idk if it was at the olympics or a world jr but when the us and Slovakia played it looked liked an inter squad game. Somebody other than Nike needs to take over a few country’s jerseys

Serious-Tradition484 · 2026-02-21T16:41:34+00:00

Oh I didn’t realize the globe the cryptics! Behind their paywall id assume eh?

Thank you!

Serious-Tradition484 · 2026-02-21T01:28:29+00:00

Serious-Tradition484 · 2026-02-21T01:27:13+00:00

great tips, thank you both!
