2024 Arsecast Extra Episode 607 - 13.10.2024 By shows.acast.com Published On :: Sun, 13 Oct 2024 11:17:14 GMT In this Interlull episode we chat about the Arsenal players who have been on international duty, including Bukayo Saka who has returned home after picking up a small injury with England. There's discussion of Martin Odegaard amid rumours of a set-back, a little chat about a difficult week for Arsenal Women, and Graeme Souness's comments about Arsene Wenger. Then in part two we answer questions about over-saturation of football, the introduction of half-time interviews from next season, more legal wrangling, and because it's an Interlull there's an abundance of other nonsense involving James' dramatic reading of song lyrics, sandwiches, sweetcorn, wormholes, and lots more.Get extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblog Hosted on Acast.

2024 Arsecast Extra Episode 609 - 28.10.2024 By shows.acast.com Published On :: Mon, 28 Oct 2024 12:29:09 GMT In this episode we look back at Sunday's 2-2 draw against Liverpool. We chat about the impact on Bukayo Saka on his return to the team, with an outstanding goal, and Arsenal's response to the Liverpool equaliser. Mikel Merino gave us a deserved lead at the break, but in the second half the performance levels dropped a bit so we analyse the reasons for that, key of which was the loss of Gabriel, as well as finishing the game with a very makeshift back-four. We also discuss the second Liverpool goal, some of the officiating decisions, and how to view the result in the context of the season so far. Then there are questions about what kind of team to pick for the Carabao Cup, media narratives, the framing of Mikel Arteta's style as a manager, and lots more.Get extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblog Hosted on Acast.

We discuss the team selection, the lack of any kind of attacking threat after we went behind, and try to understand why collectively and individually we had such a bad day. Has all the juice been squeezed from the lemon? And where does this leave the team with more difficult away games this week?

We chat about the return of Martin Odegaard and his influence on the team, going ahead and letting the lead slip again, tight offside decisions and missed chances, how to view a point away from home in the context of the game, and well the season so far. We also discuss the analysis of the team and the way it has played this campaign, with lots of issues to deal with but also plenty of room for improvement.

2024 2024 Week 36 Notes: Planners Gotta Plan By www.cygnoir.net Published On :: Sun, 08 Sep 2024 18:12:44 -0800 The new 2024-25 COVID vaccines are available, so FunkyPlaid and I got ours on Friday. Because we went to a pharmacy, my health insurance didn’t cover them, so I had to use funds from my HRA. (We could have waited until our medical provider had appointments, but that would have been late September or early October — and with travel coming up soon, I was unwilling to wait.) It is bizarre and enraging to see how agencies supposedly dedicated to public health are flailing in this moment. I’m extremely fortunate to have a job that provides health insurance, an HRA, and sick leave, and I can afford KN95 masks and rapid antigen tests. What about people who are uninsured or underinsured? I know it’s a bummer to read this, but it’s a bigger bummer to try to survive during yet another COVID surge. Let’s take care of our health, for ourselves and for our communities. Concentrating on This time of year is Planner Season, when the 2025 planners are released and people like me (and maybe you too) gobble them up and then spend the rest of this year hoping that next year we have lives exciting enough to plan. Ever the optimist, my planner line-up for 2025 is: For my personal planner, daily log, habit tracker, reading journal, and commonplace book, I’ll be trying the Sterling Ink Common Planner in their new N1 size, which fits inside a Traveler’s Notebook. I’m currently using a Hobonichi Weeks, which is 95mm x 186mm; the N1 size is 110mm x 210mm. For my work planner, the Wonderland 222 A5 Weekly Planner has been working well for me this year, so I’ll try it again in 2025. Cultivating ✍???? Drafting two stories, one for performance (I hope ????????) and one for a collection. ???? Still knitting that gift for someone. ???? Food I made that was yummy: Peperonata with peppers from a coworker’s CSA box, plus peppers from our own CSA box. CSA boxes are great! Gluten-free vegan apple crisp. I am not a huge fan of apples in their primary form; I prefer them as a cinnamon delivery device. So this recipe from Minimalist Baker, apples chopped up and baked with oats and sugar? That works. Sliced heirloom tomatoes on toast spread thinly with mayonnaise. Truffle salt if you’re feeling fancy. (I was.) ???????? Learning Italian with Duolingo. ???? The workweek was short because of the holiday on Monday, but also long because of everything. I’m still trying to create better boundaries around that. Consuming ????️ One of my planner pals shared a sample of Bungukan Kobayashi’s Yagentoshiro Reflex Violet, a dusky blue with iridescent purple shimmer. ???? “girlfriend” by Hemlocke Springs is on repeat on my brain radio. ???? You don’t need to be a Rolling Stones fan to enjoy the “I Can’t Get No Legal Action” episode of the Judge John Hodgman podcast. ???? Still working my way through the crossword puzzle books I’ve hoarded and enjoying the daily Cross|word on Puzzmo. Also, Minute Cryptic is quite humbling. ???? One last episode of “Fargo” to go, then we’ll start the latest season of “Slow Horses”. ???? What I’m reading and quoting: “The Mountain in the Sea” by Ray Nayler: “The great and terrible thing about humankind is simply this: we will always do what we are capable of.” Some links From “What would an adequate COVID response look like?” by Julia Doubleday: Right now, state representatives are deliberately avoiding mention of COVID, while propagandizing the safety of infection and/or the end of the pandemic by refusing to mask. It is hard to imagine how successful a pandemic response might be if public officials were actually trying to end the pandemic. We quite literally have public health and political and media figures working to hide three pieces of critical information: public knowledge of the virus, public knowledge of mitigation measures that would reduce viral spread, and public knowledge of the severity of the virus (which would motivate desire to reduce viral spread). Other links: NaNoWriMo Shits The Bed On Artificial Intelligence (Chuck Wendig) Why Goblin Mode Is the New Self-Care Routine (Cleveland Clinic) 2024 Winners of the 17th Annual iPhone Photography Awards One more thing Today I’m journaling about this quote from Seneca: “Life, if well lived, is long enough.” Full Article
2024 2024 Week 37 Notes: R&R By www.cygnoir.net Published On :: Sun, 15 Sep 2024 19:52:00 -0800 Look at this absolutely good girl: my canine sister, Willa. Concentrating on Rest, relaxation, and quality time with loved ones! We’re visiting family in Pennsylvania this week and attending a wedding in Kentucky on Friday. When packing, I restricted myself to three notebooks and three pens because I tend to overpack and then immediately regret as I am schlepping around a stationery store in my backpack. Cultivating ✍???? Drafting two (very different) stories. I’m looking forward to time off work to let my creative writing brain percolate. ???? Food I made that was yummy: Pork chops in garlic mushroom sauce, with mashed potatoes and salad on the side. I am not a huge fan of pork chops, but I got them in our CSA box, so I looked for a recipe that incorporated other things I am a huge fan of, like garlic and mushrooms. ???????? When my brain is full of Italian, I switch over to music lessons in Duolingo. It’s fun! ???? No. Consuming ????️ Only three pens means only three inks: De Atramentis Charles Dickens, Sailor Manyo Hinoki, and Robert Oster Sydney Lavender. ???? I heard “White Gloves” by Khruangbin for the first time in a while and forgot how much I enjoy their music. ???? Recently FunkyPlaid and I tried to watch the show “Kaos” and lasted about ten minutes. I had listened to the Pop Culture Happy Hour episode on the show and thought I might enjoy it. ???? No time for games this week. I’m looking forward to some Puzzmo! ???? We started watching “My Brilliant Friend”, the adaptation of Elena Ferrante’s Neapolitan quartet, which I read last year and loved. ???? What I’m reading and quoting: “The Mountain in the Sea” by Ray Nayler: “How we see the world matters — but knowing how the world sees us also matters.” Some links I love Tracy Durnell’s latest weeknotes post. I’m not even mad at how it makes me feel like I’ve done absolutely nothing in comparison. ???? Neither Elon Musk Nor Anybody Else Will Ever Colonize Mars (Albert Burneko) Firefly Atlas: I’m eager to see fireflies while I’m here, so I’m doing some research. One more thing I was a bit anxious to travel during a COVID surge, so in addition to getting the new vaccine as soon as I could, I invested in a Flo Mask Pro to wear in airports, planes, and any other crowded spaces. I’m so glad I did; it was very comfortable to wear all day, once I got used to how it felt. My glasses didn’t fog up at all, which is a minor miracle. I did get some looks (you know the kind) but that was a small price to pay for a greater chance of avoiding Covid and/or Long Covid. I only saw a handful of other people masked. Full Article
