    I know everyone is dunking on this, and rightly so, but I genuinely think “I have observed that automation tends to concentrate wealth in the hands of a few all-powerful capitalists, and this disproves Marx” is the funniest thing I have ever seen on Twitter

    England managing to lose on penalties even in a match that isn’t going to penalties. Simply incredible commitment to the bit.

    I’m fascinated by sentences that get worse with every single word — sentences where not even the prepositions offer us any hope or rest

    Grant Wahl was my friend and was one of the most generous, kind, and encouraging people I knew in or out of sports media. He was such a bright presence; I never talked to him without feeling a little better about the world afterward. This is crushing.

    NPR can confirm the death of longtime soccer sportswriter Grant Wahl (@GrantWahl). He died today in Doha, Qatar while covering the Argentina-Netherlands World Cup quarterfinal. Story to come.

    Things I look for in a bank - fires all its security engineers - corporate philosophy based on on r/cryptohentai upvotes - wildly inconsistent from day to day, owner boasts about doing “a lot of dumb stuff” - not a bank - central hub for my 280-character posts about my enemies
