This sounds like the beginning of a joke

Perhaps a year too late, but then again, it’s easy to say with hindsight. All the best for him. He’s been a truly great player for several years.

This is just one example of the trend that has started and that will continue over the next years and decades. With the United States stepping away from the role of guarantor for free trade, various economies will find ways to deal bilaterally without using the US Dollar. We’ve already seen a shift towards precious metals as a form of reserve currency instead of the Dollar. Now the monetary trade volume of the Dollar is also at risk. When the Dollar no longer is the undisputed world reserve (and trade) currency, it will become incredibly difficult for the US to sustain its current level of deficit.

All that needs to happen now is for the countries of Europe to unify and St. Lucia loses this incredibly important title!

TIL there is a Eurovision for trees.

That being said, I am an elm enjoyer. I have an elm in my garden (Ulmus × hollandica), which is the most beautiful tree in the entire neighbourhood.

This doesn’t sound surprising. I believe all of France has already accepted it as a fact that Zidane will follow Deschamps as soon as he leaves.

Are any routers made in the United States and theoretically compliant with this rule?

The match was already a complete shitshow. Now it’s becoming even worse. I would have understood if the referee had called it, once Senegal left the pitch. But to decide the winner months later? That’s even worse.

Unfortunately FC Barcelona was not blessed with the best Club Presidents in recent history…

The only country to ever invoke Article 5 was the United States. As things stand there is no scenario whatsoever in which Europeans will once again agree to fight and die in a futile American war in the Middle East. Let the Americans sort out their own mess. Perhaps we should even consider trying to find a solution to resuscitate the world economy together with China, India, Iran and other involved parties in the region.

If everyone was as positively weird as this gentleman the world would likely be a better place.

So, a slap on the wrist it is. As usual you just need to be rich enough and rules somehow can be bent and broken without any substantial risk.

We all know that temporary relief is going to become permanent economic reintigration is going to become economic support is going to become military support.

I wonder who the next FIFA Warmonger Prize recipient will be? Top nominees should include Trump (again, obviously), Putin, Netanyahu, MBS and a left field candidate in Sudan’s Hamedti.

So aktuell wie eh und je. Meine Tochter findet die Bücher vom kleinen Bären und vom kleinen Tiger einfach klasse.

Isn’t there some type of shitposting community for these posts? I believed this place to be for interesting, informative or pretty maps.

Maybe it’s best if United just didn’t have a manager. I have a feeling that no matter who they appoint to be the next “permanent” manager, will just be the next failure. Either they get a shiny new European who will crumble just like Amorim or they stick with their interim manager and may well have a Solskjær 2.0 on their hands.

Spurs are in real trouble. They could be relegated this season. I don’t think a club with such a high revenue and honestly solid finances has ever been relegated for purely sporting reasons. Back in the day Juventus, for example, went down after a max-fixing scandal. It would be hilarious to see them in the same division as Lincoln.

This can only happen, because nobody in the football hierarchy respects African football. African womens’ football is taken even less seriously by the old men in charge of ruining our great sport. This would be unthinkable for a mens’ Euros, but in Africa …? Yeah, sure.

I know. It still feels odd to me as a Dutchman though to know that there’s dozens of gun related crimes going on all the time.
