World cup as of yesterday is officially a Europeans only game. Bad year for quite a few nations. Russia is the only team left not in the top 20 ranked fifa teams. Only one top 10 ranked team will make it to the finals as #3 Belgium is going against #7 France. Croatia is ranked 20th, England is ranked 12th and Russia 70th. Quite an interesting world cup we have here.

Woo! Good job England! Now I just need Russia to bring it home against Croatia!

Ich weiß nicht, was soll es bedeuten,

dass ich so traurig bin;

ein Märchen aus alten Zeiten,

das kommt mir nicht aus dem Sinn.

Die Luft ist kühl und es dunkelt,

und ruhig fließt der Rhein;

der Gipfel des Berges funkelt

im Abendsonnenschein.

Die schönste Jungfrau sitzet

dort oben wunderbar;

ihr goldnes Geschmeide blitzet,

sie kämmt ihr goldenes Haar.

Sie kämmt es mit goldenem Kamme

und singt ein Lied dabei;

das hat eine wundersame,

gewaltige Melodei.

Den Schiffer im kleinen Schiffe

ergreift es mit wildem Weh;

er schaut nicht die Felsenriffe,

er schaut nur hinauf in die Höh.

Ich glaube, die Wellen verschlingen

am Ende Schiffer und Kahn;

und das hat mit ihrem Singen

die Lore-Ley getan.[/spoiler]

I know not if there is a reason

Why I am so sad at heart.

A legend of bygone ages

Haunts me and will not depart.

The air is cool under nightfall.

The calm Rhine courses its way.

The peak of the mountain is sparkling

With evening's final ray.

The fairest of maidens is sitting

So marvelous up there,

Her golden jewels are shining,

She's combing her golden hair.

She combs with a comb also golden,

And sings a song as well

Whose melody binds a wondrous

And overpowering spell.

In his little boat, the boatman

Is seized with a savage woe,

He'd rather look up at the mountain

Than down at the rocks below.

I think that the waves will devour

The boatman and boat as one;

And this by her song's sheer power

Fair Lorelei has done.[/spoiler]

Fecal matter aerosolizes when you flush the toilet, this includes poop you have put into the toilet and any excess residue in the toilet itself left over from previous uses.

This is the reason why healthcare researchers are warning against blow dryers in bathrooms, as they recirculate airborn fecal matter and can spread diseases.

I'll be going to college soon.

I have never dated actually.

It seems as though the SAA is driving back rebel forces in the southwest of the country while the US might withdraw troops from parts of the southeast of the country that is controlled by rebels. The Turks still have a foothold on Afrin while the SDF is pushing back ISIS forces in the desert on the border of Iraq with the support of the Iraqi military.

I'm not old enough to really give a good answer.

Dear Republican Party,

It really seems like you've played the long game. Now, you have majorities in all three branches of the federal government in many state governments. You'll probably use your power to further enrich the rich while the poor get poorer.

Dear Democratic Party,

You really need to get your act together. The fact that you lost 1000 seats under Obama and lost to Trump in 2016 really shows how your neoliberal strategy doesn't work.

I'll have a cheeseburger and iced tea. Extra sugar on both, please.

I can't WAIT to start! Like, I'm jittery just thinking about it! I'm still unsure about doing research and community project work (the former is especially emphasized at William & Mary), but I'm sure I'll get through just fine.

I have a crush, and we've actually talked about dating. If we eventually do get together, it'll be my first real relationship. I hear a lot of stereotypes and bad raps about dating, but I hope I can really start learning things firsthand.

I've done a little research on Rojava, and I really like that concept for a state. I'm also glad to hear the migrant crisis is dying down some, but we need to do [I]so[/I] much more.

College: I'm currently attending community college while living at home, but I'll be starting at university and living in a dorm in the fall. I'm nervous of course, but I'm also looking forward to living on my own and getting the 'real' college experience.

Dating: I would like to try it someday, but at the moment I have no experience with it.

Syria: A mess of a conflict with an unfortunately large number of refugees. I hope the situation there will stabilize soon and eventually end, but the downside is it'll likely end with Assad remaining in power, which isn't ideal.

Bonus: The Germans once developed a rail zeppelin, which ran on petrol and had propellers. It was impractical and unsafe, but part of me would like something like that back.

Tangerines and Bud Light plox

College: Being a college student, I can say that, in contrast to high school, college is definitely more of a relaxing and open environment, though the costs for tuition, supplies, and other necessities are pretty high. Despite that, I'm finding myself to enjoy the college life, especially since I have more free time to spare.

Dating: Aside from the "dating" that I did in kindergarten, I've never actually dated anyone (this also being the fact that it's taken me a while to get over a crush I had in elementary school). Although I haven't dated, I have found myself wanting to at least experience one date before I finish college, and I do have some people I'm interested in.

Syria: Hoo boy, the hotbed of war and arguments: as of recent, I know that the Islamic State is bound to lose the last of its remaining strongholds, the incident with the purported Israeli strike that's heightening tensions, and the SAA making its encroachment on Daara, the start of the rebel movement. Although I absolutely despise al-Assad, from the looks of it, his government's likely to win the war given they now hold around 60-65% of Syrian territory: in contrast to it, I'm hoping that the SDF and Rojava will provide the benchmark to bring Syria into a more federalized state, though they need to get Erdogan's mitts off of the occupied territories.

Tech: Honestly, I'm split between MP3 players and VHS: MP3s have been my main source to listen to music (hell, I just got a new one off Amazon delivered yesterday), but I was raised on VHS tapes for most of my life (I still have an entire drawer filled with tapes, which I need to get rid of soon before the film reels dissolve or fall apart). Given that MP3s are still an active market, however, I'm putting my support towards VHS systems, especially since cassettes and vinyl records have been making a comeback between millennials and the older generations.

Bonus: Read A Canticle for Leibowitz, it's a classic and should be used as a source on post-apocalyptic world-building

Tangerines and tea, please.

Eh to the topics, it's three in the morning and I don't feel like getting into the semantics of the issues or anything like that rn. I will say that collage is looming for me.

As for this technology bit, I'm a bit conflicted.

I certainly wish Spaceplanes could come back. They aren't economically sound and IMO represent a good lesson on why reusability isn't the same thing as "economically sound" (glares at Elon) or even "efficent". It also linked to a better time where programs lied to people because they genuinely thought they could do "x" and not because it's a really nice way to make a few bucks (Glares at Elon and his "transcontinential suborbital shuttleX2) but ultimately as cool as they were it just never amounted to much.

My other choice would be the Nuclear Thermal Rocket that happens to be the only choice for space travel as far as I'm concerned. It avoids the rank stupidity of chemical engines, the slow trolling of the ion and Hall Effect thrusters and were it not for the gross scientific illiteracy of some people (and the end of the space race in American hands) we'd have them ready to go already.

Instead we get morons with reactionless drives peddling a violation of thermodynamics at the low low cost of "quantum vaccume virtual plasma", NASA sitting in a corner putting together silly little trinkets like VASMIR and chemical engines for mars like the little beasties we are.

As for this technology bit, I'm a bit conflicted.

I certainly wish Spaceplanes could come back. They aren't economically sound and IMO represent a good lesson on why reusability isn't the same thing as "economically sound" (glares at Elon) or even "efficent". It also linked to a better time where programs lied to people because they genuinely thought they could do "x" and not because it's a really nice way to make a few bucks (Glares at Elon and his "transcontinential suborbital shuttleX2) but ultimately as cool as they were it just never amounted to much.

My other choice would be the Nuclear Thermal Rocket that happens to be the only choice for space travel as far as I'm concerned. It avoids the rank stupidity of chemical engines, the slow trolling of the ion and Hall Effect thrusters and were it not for the gross scientific illiteracy of some people (and the end of the space race in American hands) we'd have them ready to go already.

Instead we get morons with reactionless drives peddling a violation of thermodynamics at the low low cost of "quantum vaccume virtual plasma", NASA sitting in a corner putting together silly little trinkets like VASMIR and chemical engines for mars like the little beasties we are.

Audiastan, In recognition of your upcoming citizenship and indoctrination onto the map... I have created a banner to welcome you to the creation of the Motherland's Finest Armed Forces!

Nuremgard, You have been cordially invited to the Alliance as well.

Chernarus State, I had wished to invite you as well, but in accordance with our agreement, I will leave that up to you. The Soviet Union and the Russian Federation have done enough to hurt your people, and I do not wish the Equestrian Federation to become the third.

Little late but IÂ’ll have a club soda. IÂ’m on a diet soÂ

College- ItÂ’s my senior year of HS so obviously IÂ’m focused on where IÂ’m gonna go and stuff but I know IÂ’m double majoring in political science and economics to prepare me to go to law school

Dating- never have dated anyone, but thatÂ’ll probably change soon enough. My bad luck was caused by a lack of confidence but I actually do have confidence now. And if nothing comes about eh so be it

Syria- The US needs to get its nose (and itÂ’s weapons) out of there and any conflicts not a direct threat to us. Yes itÂ’s a humanitarian crisis but itÂ’s also a problem someone else can solve

Bonus- I agree with what Chernarus said about VHS tapes. Vinyls already making a comeback, might as well have VHS make one too

Dear Brazil,

You really let us down. I put so much support behind you and I rubbed it in my friends face when Mexico lost but you just ruined it. Now IÂ’m supporting England but maybe whenever you get your act together IÂ’ll come back to you
