I cannot adequately explain how fucked up the World Cup situation is wihen the president of a host nation *threatens the safety* of one of the participants (Iran).

It's really like these billionaires saw Wall-E and thought "sure looks bad, but someone must *own* the earth ship, right?"
If it costs 300 million Americans more to go about their daily lives, but 250 thousand already-rich oil executives and investors get to experience another boom—this is good for the economy.
I mean I feel kind of bad about it but I won't be attending a Boston Legacy game until they finish White Stadium.
Ah, I did not realize. And yeah, the stadium location sucks.
The least shocking thing ever is learning DOGE used chatGPT to identify which grants were “DEI.” It is critical to understand that LLMs are an authoritarian technology meant to win the millennia-long war on critical thinking and art. They are a right wing wet dream.
It is both pathetic & dangerous to see Republicans actively stoking a religious war in a country that was founded on the value of religious freedom.
Fortunately, the good people of NYC did not fall for this grotesque, bigoted fear mongering against @mayor.nyc.gov.
Kansas Republicans are trying to ban abortion by proposing an EQUAL RIGHTS AMENDMENT and sneaking fetal personhood language in
I took the free shuttle bus from NYC to Giants Stadium they set up for an exhibition match, Man U vs Juventus in spring 2004 and the traffic was INSANE - we were 25 minutes late to the game. Not having the buses will just make it WORSE.
We're going to reduce the federal deficit by reducing oversight. That will work!
The only people who can still afford to retire REFUSE to retire.
Cities in Vermont and Maine are experiencing some of the same tactics that ICE has been using across Minnesota since December, and facing lots of resistance.

It is a weakness of our system that the murder of 160 schoolchildren does not result in an immediate dissolution of the government.
The guy from the OC did his undergrad in economics and has become a prominent critic of cryptocurrency. He made a documentary last year and you should see it.
Demanding a list of Jews, eh? I know this story.

If you get into a “who can cut taxes more” battle with the GOP, you’re going to lose because they are far more shameless and antagonistic to the idea of living in a functioning society.
Don’t concede to their framing that taxes are nothing but a problem to be solved.
Keep my taxes where they are.
Lower taxes on actually poor people.
Raise the fuck out of taxes on the rich.
5 years late but cool to see this......
