Even the music from this years World Cup is so insipid and boring

I dunno but I miss the high focus days of the pandemic. Not the pandemic itself btw, but the highly focused life i developed because of it. And now that pandemic’s waned this year, lifestyle creep and laziness has set in. I need that focus back without the pandemic.

Already been a year since we went to India 🙁 – can’t wait to go back again though a year away. Gonna be a excruciatingly long wait to go back home!

Honestly Ted Cruz is such a horrible man that I bet he was was already looking into how to politicize things to his advantage had something happened to his kid. He really is such a vile person, and by definition anyone who voted for him.

People who rate something 8.7 out of 10, why? Why so specific?

Feels like an end of era for Indian cricket – need new faces and folks in and give them time to grow. It is time for the senior players to think about their priorities. Also, Dravid hasn’t been able to replicate his success at local level to national level, though dont think he can’t do much. Shastri got this team at their prime years and Dravid has to deal with inflated egos and age of the team – going to be hard.

Generally supportive of this, except, as a resident of fairfax county we are expected to absorb some of the cost to afford this for… dc residents. Umm, no – I’d rather have my extra tax dollars go to teachers in fairfax county who’s re severely underpaid than paying for a free bus service that’s not even going to help anyone here in fairfax county [www.washingtonpost.com](https://www.washingtonpost.com/transportation/2022/12/06/dc-council-free-metrobus-vote/)

> D.C. votes to eliminate Metrobus fares in movement toward free transit

It’s interesting democrats have gone all silent on codifying abortion. I mean is there a reason why house can’t pass a bill and key it up for senate in new year? I don’t know if that is possible but you’d think that house would tee this up for senate in new year and maybe just maybe democrats might band together to pass it? The silence though is noticeable – almost makes me feel dems want to milk abortion issue as much as they can before any election but actually not do much?

Feel glad for Warnock – after all the wait and drama now he can focus on next 6 years. Georgia, thank you!
