Haha! You dumb fuckers destroyed professional sports. Greedy bitchass leagues had gambling guardrails and used to isolate themselves from the ESPNs of the world for good reason and I guess they just forgot

Maybe—just maybe—sports leagues getting in bed with gambling companies wasn’t such a hot idea…

been doing some light reading about the aftermath of the korean dictatorship and I think it's really important that we repeat this to ourselves, to our friends, to our neighbors, to our politicians

lol she got his ass and he knows it

I don’t like when coaches say this because like you’re the coach you can stop her you just don’t play her she can’t storm the field and decide she’s in the XI

son brought home a pinto bean plant from school last spring. it yielded one (1) bean, which we planted. *that* plant yielded ... one (1) bean, which we have also planted. Five months of cultivation has yielded two beans. anyway, you were saying something about "grow your own food"

Moderate Democrats saw that voters were energized and might expect something from them, so they needed to put a stop to that ASAP

Like how does it even make sense to be angry with those who have the least influence and standing, who are the most desperate and hurting and NOT at those who have the power, are in position to create change and CHOOSE to not do so out of sheer cruelty and greed.

agreeing to make a terrible deal while your main opponent is quite literally being boo'd on live tv by an entire stadium of people is the kind of political instinct you'd normally only find in a 3 week old dead goldfish

workers revolts and military coups get all the attention but, dont sleep on peasant uprisings

I have to admit, if we played city and had that pen given against us and that disallowed goal, I’d be a mess. Head on mars. Unable to function. But it’s against Liverpool so I’ll manage to find the humor in it.

Loving today's news that the mysterious "fedora man" outside the Louvre heist was actually a 15-year-old museum visitor who dresses like a 1940s French detective all the time, just because. apnews.com/article/louv...

it's pretty funny how peppers produce capsaicin so they get eaten and dispersed long distance by birds instead of puny walking mammals, but then some apes decided "oh hey pain is fun actually" and now the plants made it to every part of the planet

The Farmers’ Almanac is ending publication after more than 200 years of providing readers with weather forecasts and nature tips.

Routine lying by law enforcement actually getting put under the spotlight here

Seeing the Bill Watterson originals full of pencil lines of stuff that didn’t work, scuffs the eraser didn’t pick up, white out galore and more was something I needed to see to remind myself that nothing is perfect the first go and tweaks need to be made and you’re allowed to try again.

I guess I need to apologize to the writers of Alien: Prometheus. it turns out scientists really do touch everything like that

You can't live your life based on hate - that way lies madness and bitterness - but allowing yourself to slip into hater mode from time to time is a lovely little treat, like a drunk cigarette or a decadent slice of cake

Support those who actually suffer economic hardship, not those that caused it.

They don't like to be called Nazis or white supremacists but look at the things they go out of their way to do

You bailout banks because we need banks. We do NOT need the AI industry. If it ceased to exist overnight no one would be worse off as a result of it not existing. There is no good reason to bailout AI companies when the bubble inevitably bursts.

Yep, it's been weird but awesome to see articles in their newsletter that show how uncowed People Magazine's editorial team is by the regime

The Mamdani political sign generator is kinda fun https://homes.luddy.indiana.edu/ccshan/for/for.html

If there's anyone doubting how important Gyokeres is to this team they're an idiot.

Hmm, two open play goals, haters!

The bigger Declan's hair the more powerful he becomes.

Preferable for who??? Where are all the “don’t tread on me” folks now?

Well, thats gonna be a fun match to hear about for two weeks

I’m exhausted I can’t imagine how those players feel

THANK FOG FOR THE WASHINGTON SPIRIT!!! Definitely enjoyed that win as a palate cleanser after the earlier match(es.) We move!

Maybe it's just a cultural difference but I find this sort of thing *horrifying*.

(ignoring my 28 children to get the computer to say “I LOVE YOU FOR WHO YOU ARE” in a way that feels genuine)

There is still part of me that has a hard time understanding how governments deliberately starve their own people. My people have been starved, many times, but always by colonizers — growing up, I naïvely assumed this benefited colonizers. But no, they take their cruelty home and do it to their own.

If we ever saw a future where body augmentation was a thing, instead of cybernetic eyes, arm blades, super strength or titanium bones I'd go for an extended bladder so I could sleep through the night without needing to get up to pee. Something actually useful.

Ngl, this game is already making me need a second drink. Start of today's Arsenal thread, I suppose

Sooo what Xhaka we are getting?! Xhakaboom or red card Xhaka? 😅

that sad sound you hear is the hairdresser's phone ringing as one bushy-haired sad man utd fan is calling to cancel his late november appointment

Rob Edwards back in the Prem is it?

Might get some use out of this I think

also, I have never been able to get over that lestat's approach to becoming a rock star is 100% just nice pete here

The world would be immensely better if more religions and their believers had even a tenth of the dedication the Sikhs do to doing good for people with no gatekeeping or expectations of anything other than "you are a fellow human in need and we can help you"

I do not believe that anti-Zionism is antisemitic, and I have consistently argued against those who say it is, but if you see the act of condemning anti-Diaspora antisemitism as inherently Zionist and pro-Israel, you are really telling on yourself.

Weird that the guy in the article would assume that the bear is male even after seeing cubs in the vicinity. Happy to stand corrected if that's normal bear behavior where he is!

YOUR STARTING XI 💛

The ability to convince capital markets to hand you a trillion dollars on the strength of obvious bullshit paired with the inability to get a single human to sincerely and spontaneously say they love you is some real punishment of the gods shit.

I really hope that when this ends— because it IS going to end— every last person responsible for these abominable abuses of power rots in prison for the rest of their miserable lives. No one who participates and profits from it has any business being accepted by polite society ever again.

SALIBA!!!!
