Well you beat us Brits in the World Cup Semi's

Well done.

But we still won for a couple of reasons...

First of all we call it football like the rest of the world!

Secondly, we actually won the war of independence... we sent you all our religious nutters a long long time ago, and I call that winning!!!! Hehehe (seems appropriate 2 days before the 4th)

Congrats my friends. Looks like America will pick up the world cup for women's FOOTBALL again this year

But I have to say the way Brits play when they have to is nasty as fuck. Trump would not stand a chance (I hope!)

That is why humanity will always eventually win out, because enough of us will never get it, to stand up to the fuckers who do it. Hurrah!!!!

Things fell apart a little toward the last 15 minutes or so but a good game overall. Congrats to all who worked so hard and gave it they had.

I'm bracing myself for the Fourth of July-- things are feeling pretty Orwellian around here these days.
