Stables?

It would take away a lot of the zing… But it’s cooking, you do you!

Seems like you could use a kick start for something different. Let me suggest Alabama White Sauce. Tangy, a little heat, and some lip sweat.

Alabama White BBQ Sauce: 1 cup mayonnaise

1/4 cup apple cider vinegar

1 tablespoon prepared horseradish

1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

1 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Salt

Pop is my new go to distro. Even without their own DE, the tweaks to gnome are really well considered and I don’t spend an hour unfucking the default environment.

No. If it’s sticking you’re generally cooking too cool. Fast sear followed by a slower roast.

Pro: Every match is meaningful. That mid April slump where your club drops 6 points could be the difference between a poor year and one where they get relegated. End of season matches between the worst clubs will get spicy. It allows smaller clubs that punch above their weight to earn better competition. Who wouldn’t want Forward Madison in the top USL club. Who wouldn’t laugh their ass off if Louisville got relegated.

Cons: How will this affect the CBA for relegated clubs. Does this create an arms race where the most monied clubs succeed. I’m not sure how USSF Professional League Standards will have to be amended to allow a small club in small city exist at the top of the pyramid.

Overall the cons are limited. It definitely raises the value of current League 1 clubs because they are 30 something matches away from being in the Championship. Potentially this will create more news interests and hype. It creates a meaningful difference from MLS other than not being MLS.

Which was the style at the time..

Get it right, Philistine :p

Social media is supposed to be the digital commons. Without a dislike button, then the media cannot be a commons. You go to the town square and start spouting offensive bullshit you’re going to get the proverbial rotten tomatoes thrown at you, mockery, and getting shunned.

With only having a like button, Twitter amplifies the message of bad actors and encourages rage responses. That’s the point though isn’t it? Engagement metrics to sell rage at a discount instead of the whole normal population buying a post with dislikes and moving on.

I snorted audibly on that one.

Connect loads so much faster than liftoff, which sucks because I like liftoff better if it wasn’t an original EverQuest zone loading screen everything I looked at a post.

I find there are few cult classics that can be found by future generations and maintain their cult status outside of the truly timeless greats like Rocky Horror Picture Show or similar. There’s a nostalgia associated with most cult films. I can’t imagine GenZ glomming onto Better off Dead or Ferris Bueller’s Day Off or The Goonies because so much of the camp and humor is tied to a time they don’t have a reference for.

Scrambled porn in the eighties had about this much pixelation… Nostalgia.

Although disappointing, not entirely unexpected. Assaulting and defending are two different things and without air or artillery superiority, the assault phase is even more difficult. So these lads are pressing in on well prepared defensive lines without a ton of battle space preparation. Hopefully, they can perform well enough, and violently enough to overcome the typical 3:1 requirement for beaching and destroying fortified positions.
