China has 34 golds!

We've matched Sydney 2000 gold count! W00t! Go go Team China!

Women's table tennis continues to prove that China's dominance over the sport is far from over. Tough luck, Japan. You've still got a ways to go.

(Context: Ito Mima was reported saying she will end China's dominance over table tennis when she was 16. Now that she's 20 and still losing to Chinese athletes, one of whom is only 18 years old, well, I guess we know how well that went. This is why you don't tell the media your ambitions, child. You will only spur your rivals to improve further.)

Also, fuck you England, Chinese diving dominance continues. Just because you managed to pry one gold from us doesn't make you a diving giant.

Messi officially leaves FC Barcelona

Yeah...this news is so big, places like Washington Post, CNN, NPR, and New York Times are covering it. Because holy shit, this is beyond expectation.

I'm...not sure how I feel right now. I guess Olympic news pales in comparison at this point.
