Is it about Link trying to sleep while Navi gets a little too glow-y up in his ear? You bet it is, hater! Link’s tired from being out all day slinging Deku nuts and throwing sick game in Saria’s direction. Ocarina playing takes practice, and that little pixie minx isn’t going to serenade herself, hater.

Former Chelsea striker Costa was a thorn in the Gunners’ side during his time in the Premier League, scoring three times and finding himself at the centre of some on-field flashpoints. A hamstring injury has kept the 29-year-old sidelined since the second leg of Atleti’s quarter-final against Sporting CP a fortnight ago and Kevin Gameiro partners star forward Antoine Griezmann in attack.

Herman, a well-known trauma expert and part-time psychiatry professor at Harvard Medical School, told Newsweek that “certainly anything in pop culture that denies the harm of incest is hurtful to survivors....

Jon Meacham: Hello, I’m Jon Meacham and I’m looking forward to answering, or trying to answer, some of your questions about the Newsweek cover this week. Bellevue, WA: Are there any historical situations that are similar to the one that Bloomberg is in now? Any examples from history that would give us a clue as to what will happen from here? Jon Meacham: What really interests me about a possible Bloomberg presidential bid is that it has few, if any, historical precedents....

The American retired for a third time in August 2017 with a perfect 50-0 record after defeating McGregor in the Irishman’s professional boxing debut. However, Mayweather may soon step into the ring against the UFC star again, if his latest social media post is anything to go by. Shortly after McGregor defeated Cerrone in Las Vegas, Mayweather shared a promotional fight poster on Instagram with his and McGregor faces on it and “Mayweather McGregor 2 2020” splashed across it....

And he’ll even take a midweek race if NASCAR would give him one. “I can run on whatever night they want to run on,” said the popular three-time Cup champion who owns the half-mile dirt oval. “They can pick. We’ll run on whatever night they choose. We can make it work. “If you can take the trucks and make them work here, the Cup cars, the Nationwide cars are not a stretch from that....

Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 will be the next PS5 exclusive, scheduled for release next year. As expected, there are already grand plans for the game, showcased for the first time in 2021. However, one key element missing in the past two games is the absence of a multiplayer element.

Today, the token sits within touching distance of DOGE in terms of market cap, but could a flippening be on the cards? Despite only beginning its journey in 2020, Shiba Inu is now the 12th largest cryptocurrency in circulation based on market capitalization and is less than $2bn behind its inspiration, DOGE. But can SHIB really usurp the original meme token? What Is Shiba Inu?

The hitch was, I’m not sure I could findfive — or, given the whole two-platoon biz, 10 – D-League guys I could comfortably argue would defeat this Kentucky squad. MORE: Top 10 dunkers | Calipari says UK would get ‘buried’ | College basketball’s craziest fans I mean, they might. But aside from pointing out that Marquis Teague and Doron Lamb are in the D-League, and they were essential members of a UK team that went from 3-0 all the way to 38-2 and the NCAA championship, how does one generate much passion for the suggestion that a frontcourt of Hassan Whiteside, Earl Clark and Roscoe Smith would handle the Wildcats?...
