It will be nothing, just like it was when it happened in my community last week, just like when it happened in Florida, just like when it happened in Massachusetts, just like when it happened in Colorado. So far there have been 16 school shootings in the US this year. I believe that’s more than the rest of the world put together.

I only remember one in all the argentinian history.

For whatever reason, this dude was somewhat popular among the non-sport-loving youth (so not me) ten years ago or so :p

Being an American student is deadlier than being in the American military anywhere in the world.

I should get an Olympic gold medal when I graduate.

So, Kendrick Lamar has some 'song' (as far as you can call it that) with a couple instances of the dreaded word 'nigga' in it. All fine and dandy, it's his song, his lyrics. Then, he gets a fan on stage to rap with him...she raps his exact lyrics, including 'nigga'....and gets sent off into a mad crowd for rapping his exact lyrics :p

Interesting documentary about the current situation in Venezuela:

 

 

This channel also has some other very good documentaries, for example this one (already more than 3,5 million views in just over 2 months):

    • One of the best-ever Women's Relays this afternoon in Ruhpolding.  Unfortunately stuck away on a midweek afternoon so not many people will have seen it.  Must watch though.  No spoilers yet!
    • The IOC is very TV ratings and ticket sale focused when it comes to sports to add / drop, seemingly. Which is probably not the best metric to use, but it does explain why alpine snowboarding is in more trouble than something like aerials or ski half-pipe (which should probably be closer to the chopping block if we go by competitive depth).
    • Thursday January 15th, 2026 - Round-Robin Day 3 Schedule (GMT +1)   13:00   Japan vs France 16:30   Denmark vs Norway 20:00   Italy vs Germany
    • all races are shown on public tv in places like Italy, Austria and streamed all around the Continent on the Discovery+/HBO Max popularity, instead, is another story... except maybe in Austria, tv ratings are marginal and the athletes are basically unknown, like in all the non-mainstream sports (which means, here in Italy, football, ferrari and -the newcomer in the last few years- Sinner, who replaced Valentino Rossi in this very poor list)   ps at least, there are quite a few kids practicing the sport in our mountain villages
    • Finally got in as well after about an hour-ish in line.
    • Nobody in the US watches it is the problem the IOC has. That and it's kinda dead as a grassroots sport - I ski and I've only seen one Alpine board in my entire life. It was displayed in a store as a curiosity and it was *old*. Much easier to participate in snowboardcross at a recrational level.   I don't think it should be removed, but Alpine snowboarding has a perception problem as a dead sport, at least outside of Europe (I don't have a good sense of how often Alpine snowboarding is shown on TV in Europe and how popular those broadcasts are).
    • Got in and registered, though they put me in two separate queues.  Hoping to get into the early Southern California purchase slot, though it seems nothing is certain.
    • Parallel Slalom Team WC Bad Gastein    Mixed Team Gold-  Italy 2 (Lucia Dalmasso/Aaron March) Silver-  Switzerland 1 (Dario Caviezel/Julie Zogg) Bronze-  Italy 3 (Gabriel Messner/Jasmin Coratti)    Karner/Pichelkastner in 4th    Full Results
