You know it can still be the Netherlands too?

Van der Poel is a freaking beast, unbelievable. The way he just completely destroys people on the climbs

Right, 32:20 it is

Are you entirely sure? Because that'd be insane Only 20 women in history have gone under 30:20 so I'm having a major case of

Crows, ravens and that whole family (that lives all over the world) are awesome

I don't think we have a 'Friendship Day'

Meh, Evan Dunfee dethroned

Well duh, he's got a kid to raise now.

Once again, a study based on actual facts showed differently. The ethnicity that commits the highest number of crimes in a certain area has the highest risk to get shot and there's no noticeable difference between the ethnicity of the shooting officers - apart from the perfectly logical one, where the population numbers partially define how many officers of a certain ethnicity there are and how many people per ethnicity get shot. In other, slightly exaggerated words: it's like in DR Congo mostly black people get shot and in Siberia mostly white people get shot. Well, yeah.

FFS. Luckily they're showing somebody surfing on a tiny wave without anything happening.

Where can we see the men's race walk? First event I want to watch (apart from the women's MTB that was apparently unavailable to watch)

Excellent race, although the excitement was mostly focused in the last part and the one attack Hamilton did. Simply the fastest won, there wasn't much doubt about it from the moment he made his stop.

Plus it's so awesome to see Rissveds back on the podium after her bad, bad depression

That Red Bull TV downhill commentator is both alright and extremely irritating. Greenland's win was entirely sure during the last guy's run, and he talked normally...until after the finish all of a sudden he went all AND IT'S ANOTHER BRITISH RIDER WHO TAKES HIS FIRST EVER WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! as if it was a huge sensation at that moment. Ugh, commentators who can't get people's attention by what they say and so they have to yell Random rider at split 2: 10 seconds faster than the current leading time Same rider at split 3: 11 seconds faster --> Commentator: "AND OH MY GOD IT'S 11 SECONDS!!"

Nah, he'll find it back very soon when living the rich life in Monaco

What's the 'breeding' about? That always makes me sound as if it's not about regular competition, but about who is the best at breeding a good horse

Visit Veluwe Seriously, do

Right when the land of the brave was already almost 12 hours in a mass shooting-less streak!

Just as a matter of clarification and a bit of nuance to an exaggerated statement like that: a rather extensive study showed white officers are not more likely to shoot minorities. Higher numbers of black people get shot by police in areas where crimes are more often committed by black people, whereas higher numbers of white people get shot by police in areas where crimes are more often committed by white people. Which makes perfect sense. Also: https://phys.org/news/2019-07-white-police-officers-minorities.html

I'd be more than interested to cover something positive though, if you come across it

Sounds perfect for someone who, a few years ago, tweeted about how embarassed he was Texas was only 2nd in the nation in new gun purchases, behind California, ending with "Let's pick up the pace Texans!". Seems someone did.

Do they have international showjumping there as well? A few weeks ago we were cycling in the forests around my hometown, we got to Ermelo and suddenly passed this equestrian competition location. I think I had never been there before, but I kinda forgot how we got there

Sure, understandable. However, this isn't about that, it's about authorities giving information and one might assume that information is as correct as it can be. Wait a day with reporting it and you won't find much of a reporting job.

It's all nice and well that they (actual journalists) have that as 'rule', but I'm sure you understand there are situations where that's nonsense. When a mayor says "multiple people have been killed", it'd be rather stupid to wait 24 hours before reporting so.
