Still, such articles are often quite short and/or poorly written.

 

I would definitely not describe them as awesome. For one thing their interface is quite bad.

What's bad about their interface? In terms of layout, I actually like it. Just a quite simple list of articles in order, not all those big flashy things and photos of day old articles and so on. At least not that much.

If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated! Full story and how to help can be found here!

Since they sometimes have some interesting obscure news nobody else has (ok, because pretty much nobody cares but still).

Excuse me, I read their articles everyday sir...

Isn't that the site where half the content is premium/paid? :p

The deal, which extends Coca-Cola’s support for the International Olympic Committee (IOC) for a further 12 years until 2032

Lol Thohir is such a disaster. He always said that Asian Games is a success and trying so hard to bid for 2032 without realizing the ticketing nightmare in the Asian Games and lack of suitable venues.

 

Couldn't trust most of the candidates though.

      The third day of the Challenge Series (Group B) has just finished. Uganda confirmed their great form by winning by 209 runs against Tanzania. Honestly I think Uganda is the big favourite in the tournament, but anything can happen in three years.     In the other match, the most important one for me , Italy dominated against Hong Kong and won by 155 runs. Some batting was very good, on fielding we can still improve. Compared to the last matches with Hong Kong in the past years there has been a frightening improvement for the Azzurri.

      I would like to make a minor comment on the provisional schedule for @Cinnamon Bun: I just came home from bringing the Brazilian jury to the airport, said jury will be in Sweden during the Grand Final  It makes me wonder if 'local time' should be the local time of the country (Brazil), or the local time of where the jury is in this case (Sweden), to avoid confusion (especially since it's a 1-person jury anyway).

      Trump's physical health may still be quite good, indeed. Mental health is a different story, judging by almost all of his speeches where he just gets lost in his own words.   But yeah, exactly what you mention: he can literally commit crimes and try and raise a coup, and his electorate won't care at all. That is of course besides the millions of people who might not really want to vote for a person like Trump, but simply believe with his policies they will have a better chance of paying their groceries, which - sad as it is - is definitely an understandable reason.
