@squidgerugby.bsky.social What about a video with a biophysicist on the “fake physics” in rugby laws and decisions? Egs: when is a pass “forward”; elite reaction time is 0.15 secs, a player is approaching a tackler at 20km/h (5.6 m/s), how can the tackler have an opportunity to adjust their height?

In the years I worked for him, Jimmy Carter was always the same: disciplined, funny, enormously intelligent, and deeply spiritual.

Total failure - over decades - to diversify the international business in any meaningful way outside China. At a time when a weak JPY should have translated into higher earnings (cf Toyota and Honda), Shiseido manages to grab the tail of the 🇨🇳 dragon as it stalls.
Cosmetics maker Shiseido downgraded its profit outlook for the next two years on Friday, after a downturn in sales to Chinese consumers.
Shiseido profit outlook squeezed by China downturn, president says
Shiseido joins other luxury brands that have been hurt by slowing growth, increased competition and weaker consumer confidence in China.

This thread, like Fairytale of New York, is a Christmas tradition that is actually good.
The most stressed out I've ever been about Christmas was when I was 16 and I got my first ever job, working at M&S in Dundrum. As soon as I started I kept hearing these myths about the Christmas Eve Waste Sale, where all the food that wasn't sold on the 24th was marked down 90%.

Without any large exceptions, every second child died — in Ancient Rome, in hunter-gatherer societies, in the pre-Columbian Americas, in Medieval Japan, in Imperial China, or the Renaissance.
