This Lamine Yamal kid might be somewhat good. #Barça

That’s not a red card anywhere else. I don’t blame the center for calling it, but I have no idea how VAR didn’t reverse it. #JLeague #OsakaDerby

Will I judge you if you’re mean to LLMs? Yes, of course. I judge people who are mean to stuffed animals. It’s not because I think the stuffed animal is conscious, it’s because I think you might be unhinged.

That game probably said more about Nagasaki than Hiroshima, but: a win in Gaul's first game? We'll take it! #SanfrecceHiroshima

Hiroshima need to just knock the ball around a bit here. No reason to be attempting multi-line-breaking passes when you're up two with five minutes left. #JLeague

#VVarenNagasaki finally get one — gotta be happy for the crowd there.

No idea how Nagasaki didn't get one there. Not their night. #JLeague

Kawabe! 3-nil, and I'm read to overreact: if Gaul's taught #SanfrecceHiroshima to put away chances, this team's going to be a monster.

Keeper assist! Keeper assist! Suzuki finishes and #SanfrecceHiroshima extend their lead, 2-0!

Feels like #SanfrecceHiroshima could get another before half, if they just keep up this pressure.

SHUTO! Some poor discipline on Nagasaki's backline, and #SanfrecceHiroshima turn it into the first goal of the game. Lovely finish, too!

Certainly some work to be done by Mr. Gaul on off-the-ball movement… For example, you're going to want to do some of it. #SanfrecceHiroshima

The owner of Iwate Grulla Morioka (relegated out of #JLeague into the JFL back in 2024) has uhh... ran away? disappeared?? grulla-morioka.jp/tab09_club/0...

Good *God* this is relentless! Both teams clearly desperately want to notch the first goal in the #JLeague season. This was worth waking up for!

Nagasaki has the coolest imaginable stadium — I'm really quite jealous of everyone who's there for the game today. It's hard to root against them, but… let's get this win, #SanfrecceHiroshima!

Lovely interview with the new head coach! Particularly nice to hear that Gaul doesn’t want to flip the apple cart, tactically — and the spots he wants to improve sound exactly right to me.

The federal government is just disappearing children.

This is what has never quite made sense to me about the U-22 rule. Sure, we’d *like* to have the best young players in the world coming through MLS. That sounds great! But what are the chances MLS scouting depts are the best in the world? And wouldn’t they need to be, for that to happen?

I really think the “don’t waste money on strikers unless they’re Literally Haaland” meta is coming. The difference between a scrap heap guy and a £50m guy with current styles of play/rules is nothing.

Remember the incident where DHS claimed officers shot a guy because he attacked them with a snow shovel? Yeah. It didn't happen. They shot him through the door of his own home. And then arrested him. And then lied about it. Again. And they almost shot some kids in the process.

Floored by this story. A man wrote a pollite email to a federal prosecutor objecting to the deportation of an Afghan seeking asylum. DHS responded with an administrative warrant to get the man's info from Google, then visited his home to intimidate him.

This article is a very good example of why "more training" and "more vetting" isn't the answer. Jesus Ochoa and Raymundo Gutierrez joined Border Patrol in 2018 and 2014 respectively. These aren't new agents. www.propublica.org/article/alex...

Would Bouanga *want* to go to Fluminense? I get why he was bummed about Miami — who wouldn’t want to play with Messi! — but beyond that, he’s always seemed happy in LA.

Rodri should’ve been sent off just now

One good half and the announcers have immediately shifted into mindlessly glazing Thomas Frank. The old boys' club is real. #COYS

WHAT WAS THAT! SOLANKEEEE #COYS

Hate how VAR has trained me not to celebrate when the ball goes in. But anyway: Solanke! #COYS

Not watching any more. There’s no joy to this. What’s the point? At least under Ange I always wanted to watch us no matter how bad the results got. This is just dire.

I don't really understand being down and refusing to press in your own half. #COYS

This is bad, but on the bright side, it could be even worse. #COYS

Curious!

Order to release Adrian and Liam Arias is a real barn burner storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Moltbook is weird and wild and fun, but I’m… less than convinced it’s some AI takeoff moment. (I guess we’ll find out!)

This is pretty hard to believe. Either they’re asking for too much — way, way too much — or something else is going on.

Absolutely incredible sequence from CNN. "Maduro was a paranoid lunatic always lying about the CIA trying to overthrow him. Anyways, now that the CIA has overthrown him..."

it is beautiful how we are having another moment of Bluesky unity. everybody basking in the glow of how Ilhan Omar was very visibly gonna punch that dude in the mouth

Democrats should demand every sitting Republican decry this attack and explicitly denounce it, and then censure all of them when they don’t do it. Act like normal decent humans defending your colleague.

This happens so often, one might start to think Chicho’s had some behind-the-scenes issues.

it's also a demand never made of, say, rural people who won't go into the city because they think they'll be murdered.

I might wind up very wrong about this, but: • Great signing. • I don’t think the Galaxy have solved the biggest problem of last year (inability to be dangerous in possession without Riqui). Looks like a real test for Vanney, even though the rosters been upgraded everywhere but midfield.

Combined in the PL this season, Xavi, Odobert, Tel, Richarlison, and Kolo Muani have scored 11 goals on 10.33 xG. If you think the problem is the players and not that they've only had 10.33 xG combined--which is less than each of Igor Thiago and JP Mateta *alone*--you're not thinking clearly.

Every Dem who voted to ban TikTok is a li’l fascist, tbh.

Peace is what the powerful ask for when they don’t want to be interrupted.

I don't know if people outside tech — or maybe outside SF — have even noticed the paradigm shift that's happened in coding in the last year. I don't think AI will be able to do that to every trade. But I kinda *do* think it'll be able to do it for medical research, and… man. Game-changer.

There's no forgiving the House Dems who voted for this. Or Jeffries, who told them to.

We need to shut it down. Anyone who supports funding DHS and ICE is an accomplice to the murder of Americans. This is about right and wrong, and murder is just plain wrong. No funding for DHS. No funding for ICE. We can stop this.

And he didn’t. He tried to help a woman who’d just been assaulted. There was nothing rash, stupid, or radical about what he did. He showed kindness. And they killed him for it.
