So ESPN's annual Body Issue hits shelves on the 11th and as usual goddamn these are some spectacular bodies this year has a different flavor in the shape of Prince Fielder not your usual super cut body but impressive nonetheless IMO
The contents of ESPN the Magazine's "Body" issue have been unveiled, and they contain the usual ultra-chiseled Adonises throughout its pages. Michael Phelps, Venus Williams, Serge Ibaka, Omar Gonzalez, and so on will be on newstands July 11. Texas Rangers' first baseman Prince Fielder will also be appearing nude in this summer's edition of the annual issue, and if your first inclination is laughter, you should probably remember that Prince Fielder is a better athlete than you.
Lob your fat joke of choice at the 275-pound slugger, but when you do, remember that he probably won't get winded walking out to his mailbox to pick up his copy of ESPN the Magazine. He might look a bit unorthodox for a baseball player, or really, any athlete besides an NFL lineman, but until neck surgery derailed his 2014, he also missed all of one game -- one, singular game -- between 2009 and 2013. That's 809 out of 810 possible games. How many days per week do you skip the gym? Be honest. I bail at least once per week. At least.
Let's feel good for the big man for getting the chance to show off what he's got in a magazine entirely reserved for what are historically unrealistic and unattainable body types. You know, thanks to all of us non-athletes and our aforementioned gym skippage. You do you, Prince.

I keep having to check the news to make sure the result of Germany v Brazil wasn't a fever dream of mine.

The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development -- a pro-establishment, rock-ribbed bastion of pro-market thinking -- has released a report predicting a collapse in global economic growth rates, a rise in feudal wealth disparity, collapsing tax revenue and huge, migrating bands of migrant laborers roaming from country to country, seeking crumbs of work. They prescribe "flexible" workforces, austerity, and mass privatization.
Can't see I haven't seen that coming.
The OECD has a clear message for the world: for the rich countries, the best of capitalism is over. For the poor ones – now experiencing the glitter and haze of industrialisation – it will be over by 2060. If you want higher growth, says the OECD, you must accept higher inequality. And vice versa. Even to achieve a meagre average global growth rate of 3% we have to make labour "more flexible", the economy more globalised. Those migrants scrambling over the fences at the Spanish city of Melilla, next to Morocco, we have to welcome, en masse, to the tune of maybe two or three million a year into the developed world, for the next 50 years. And we have to achieve this without the global order fragmenting.

Morning [chat]. I am sore. So very, very sore this morning. But I've been to class two days in a row. Today is an off day then back to it tomorrow and then another on Saturday. Then going for my green belt next week.
Folks on /r/soccer are insisting it's faked with HTML-manipulation because the odds are too low.
ill allow it
It would be pretty sweet if it were real though. Most I ever won on sports betting was $560. Then there was the $7,777 we won shortly after Christmas about 9 years ago which was nice.

Time for controversial topic generator:
Meat cleavers - better or worse than chop sticks?
High performance sports player associations - making unions relevant for the 21st century or decadent aristocracy of labour?
2 can't it be both?

I wonder if we're now firmly into the slow death of Kickstarter.
*looks up tuition and yearly costs*
*heart explodes in chest*
Cause, like, whatever, individual people are weird, and kinky and fucked up and beautiful.
The problem with poop shelf toiliets is that the are about as common in Germany as anime is in Japan.
That and the number of kids that are exposed to the effects of that shit.
I mean, like, won't somebody think of the children, and shit?
...not you Japan.
or Germany.
Education just encourages poors to try and act above their station.
By now they're, what's the word, ah, yes: Uncommon.
I'm genuinely annoyed because I joked about a 'I'm going to make a sandwich' kickstarter years ago
but no, I thought, don't actually make it, you'll get in trouble
hindsight is 20/20 and all
A year ago it would have been rejected as violating their ToBs.
ehhh, they pick and choose when to enforce the rules.
I wonder if that salad KS is by someone close to KS staff.
Yes, that is my point. And it's only since the PA kickstarter that they've started letting though increasing numbers of such obvious howlers.
I remember an expensive brusselsprout on ebay.
I remember a young lady at my university selling her virginity in a massive publicity stunt,
Can't see I haven't seen that coming.
I was here yesterday
Only, you know, not a painting but the real thing.
I was in that park and on my feet from 5am till 7pm in Florida summer heat.
Uggggggggh
Should have taken today off work.
Oh man, whoever won that...
Soooooooooo happy
