Paolini. And not just because she crushed Iga today. She followed up a stellar 2024 with a solid 2025.

That was my first. I recommended it to my sister who actually lives and Richmond and she enjoyed it too. I really need to get on reading (and recommending) the rest of his books.

Yes. This is a really good idea. Global warming is going to require more indoor tournaments anyway.

Doesn’t this absolve them instead of asking how they contributed to producing the person he is?

notjanice.bsky.social @notjanice.bsky.social · 16d

100% agree. Too fancy and carries no emotional weight. Dictatorship, fascism or both are way better. Even communism however inaccurate. It’s not as if the communists are going to get mad and sue for defamation.

Mboko!

I had so much fun reading this book.

This kind of thinking leads to hounding and prosecuting pregnant women for purely innocent conduct

Yes I’m watching but I think she’ll pull it out. And the roster was set before the match started.

Sorry of course you know subs are normal. I think the doubles roster for today seems fair. Pegula should win her match which would make a doubles win unnecessary so letting the second string doubles players play would be nice for them. And more important than standing behind Taylor to the max.

She wasn’t on the doubles roster for the last tie until right before the match started. BJK cup rules allow last minute subs like that

She implies that you’re a complete idiot, you disagree with her on the merits and you’re the bully?

It’s amazing how people can lie to themselves because that’s what both of them are doing. Nobody with functioning eyes and the internet or a TV could think this is looks okay.

Razorblade Tears by @blacktopkid.bsky.social was so satisfying to read. There’s grief, regret, lies, revenge, murder, friendship, growth, betrayal, sacrifice, acceptance and love (the characters for one another and me for the characters).

And to lose at home to a team they arguably should have beaten. smh

Yes the book is very intense that way, which I think takes talent on eve part of the author. Has made me think k about what I might be doing to unknowingly self sabotage.

notjanice.bsky.social @notjanice.bsky.social · Sep 7

This is in my top five of this year so far. It takes talent to pull off such detestable characters

I’m glad you did this but sad I missed it. I ended up having a date.

That was inexcusable. The ESPN tennis commentators take an extremely self-centered approach to covering the matches.
