I've got tickets to July 3rd in KC. Group K winner plays in that match. Chance I get to see Ronaldo in his final tournament.
Far from my favorite player but that's an interesting possibility.

Soccer is the biggest sport in the world but the US still prefers lesser sports. How can we get people interested in it?
Maybe pull in stars from lesser sports to stand around and smile during the draw?
Sure! That's not gonna feel super dumb.

Trump just walked on stage for the World Cup Draw, borderline clueless of where he was and had to be guided to his podium.

I am both old enough and young enough to remember when bigotry was properly recognized as a moral failing and a sign of degenerate, repugnant manifestation of selfish and ignorant ego.

A very concerning moment in Milwaukee. Giannis falls down on a non-contact injury and has to summon the trainer onto the floor.
Talk about a day for Giannis and the Bucks franchise. Here's hoping this is not a serious injury 🙏

My grandfather was an engineer and worked on the Manhattan Project in some way. Details are few because of secrecy and because he died in 1969 when my mother was 16.
She says he never really spoke about it but did tell her that there are some things you're not proud of.
I find that fascinating.

Firm agreement. Illusion of protection breeds lack of caution.
The only way you're ever gonna get brain injuries out of football is to remove helmets from the game. John Madden was saying this thirty years ago. Still true.

Really interesting thread.
IF YOU ARE TRYING TO MAKE A COMIC...
Please talk about it on this thread! I would love to hear what stage you are at, what is working well, and what has proven more difficult than you thought.
Share a bit of art, if you can!
Sing your own praises, if you like!

I initially didn't like Dipshit Derek. Was too overt and kinda annoying.
But a few "eat a fat one"s later, he really did grow on me.

AI sucks at the details and execs don't deal with details.
AI sucks at the details and execs don't deal with details.
A study by Dayforce shows 87% of executives use AI for work, compared to 57% of managers and just 27% of employees.
I think this explains the massive disconnect we see in how CEOs talk about AI versus everyone else. It also raises the question of how useful it truly is for frontline work?

Execs are embracing AI more than their employees are, new research suggests
Research from HR software company Dayforce suggests that executives are leaning into AI far more than their employees.

Where I come from, there was once a brother and sister who were quite famous. Together they sang; lived their entire lives that way.
Until one day the sister fell ill. She didn't die but her body was left a ruin. She struggled with everyday tasks and, worse in many ways, she couldn't sing anymore.
