He wasn’t even a goalie in that sport but, can confirm

One of my favorite parts of Apple Maps is when its photos of some area are from Foursquare.

Autocomplete has lost its damn mind

(The context is a silly photo of our dog I’d sent the 22yo. Obviously the missing word is “move”)

Screenshot of a draft txt:”+
Beckett heard the video game console switch on and is trying to figure out whether I'm mean enough to make her”

And autocomplete suggestions of: feel

Beckett, every time Krypto comes on screen

I think one of the dumbest things I’ve seen on streaming is that if you pause Superman on HBO Max, it displays his logo as the time marker.

Still a ton of credit in the bank, but Slot has had a horrific September/October.

Have we checked whether our players can see one another in the adidas kits?

So many misplaced passes

Jason B Jones @jbj.bsky.social · 4d

It was in the first half

Jason B Jones @jbj.bsky.social · 4d

By the basic guidelines of the Prem, Taylor has to give a yellow for the dude grabbing at the ball while our GK is on the ground. It’s not optional.

His incompetence offends the gods.

I accept Macca doesn’t have a full game but … play Gomez and push one of the midfielders back up?

Jason B Jones @jbj.bsky.social · 4d

How are we taking a point here?

This will be the week the season got away

Jason B Jones @jbj.bsky.social · 4d

And my point is not that Taylor has anti-Liverpool bias, it is that he is massively ignorant about what he is watching.

Jason B Jones @jbj.bsky.social · 4d

Honestly how can anyone watch soccer and think that’s a foul on Szobo?

Anthony Taylor should not be employed in any field. How does he even tie his shoes daily?

Jason B Jones @jbj.bsky.social · 4d

I do think the amount of time we’ve played this season with midfielders as defenders casts a weird light on the summer business

Jason B Jones @jbj.bsky.social · 4d

He will have a l o n g post-career life working the hospitality lounges at Anfield, bless him

Chiesa celebrating on the bench in the background is the best part of that goal

Aiiight then Cody

I don’t watch a lot of Chelsea but Lavia has been on the steaks I see. Nice player.

“There are five games tomorrow but they’re all trash” is weirdly something NBC comms can’t say

So far Taylor has failed to issue a yellow to Chelsea players for a high tackle, a dive and a cynical pullback to stop a counter attack

Especially when the replays show he didn’t touch the player. Tough to stay on if existing is a foul

Jason B Jones @jbj.bsky.social · 4d

So, a difficulty is that Macca can’t run, Isak is still only 70%, and the agreement with Mo is that someone else will do his running—which is maybe 1 too many to carry in the Prem.

We are starting to do a lot more arm waving and foot stamping at one another than I like to see in a Liverpool team.

We’re not United for god’s sake
