Ok what I want to know is when did they start having a guy lie down behind the wall?

Wow they subbed him off I didn’t know that was allowed.

Booo! Booo that man!!

I’m not so much rooting *for* Croatia as I am *against* Portugal.

Listen. I spent more than a decade as a theatrical technician, rigging stages, hanging lights, flying scenery, etc. The number of times I have dropped anything on a stage with performers on it is zero. The number of times I’ve dropped something that might’ve killed someone is zero. This is major.

Two other pretty large differences: *The Trump boys are operating on a completely different scale, in the hundreds of millions if not billions *The President is actively encouraging his boy's grifts by abusing the powers of his office. Not something that could said about Joe Biden.

This is absolutely heartbreaking. Please know that if you ever come into contact with a bat, you should seek medical attention. Even if there are no visible bite marks, you may have been exposed.

Sorry it was either this or Mr Brightside

A large, influential, and previously unknown literature shows why Balogun deserved that red card

This. We NEED this.

Watching the USMNT’s Argentine coach gleefully singing along to John Denver’s “Country Roads” is…well…something.

For my new-to-soccer friends, yep, this is the kind of bullshit that happens. Deep breaths.

A brewery in Ithaca, New York is standing room only for this game. Ithaca.

The cheers to boos transition in this bar was insane

Locked in

Sister Leticia "Letty" Ugboaja was walking to Sunday Mass in McAllen, Texas, when federal immigration officers stopped her, confiscated her rosary, and put her in handcuffs. DHS would not respond to requests for comment. The Catholic nun from Nigeria is a nurse who entered the country legally.

I mean, it's not like there's a great paper showing that The Apprentice significantly increased Trump's political popularity because he was portrayed as really good at "moneymaking" ungated: static1.squarespace.com/static/59485...

The idea of the Supreme Court dissenters that citizenship is a “privilege” that only some deserve rather than a basic right for everyone born in the U.S. is in accord with the view that suffrage is a also privilege rather than a universal right. In both cases, they think universality demeans them.

<to the avocado tune> ¡Mucho golazos for Mexico!

My hot take is that the championship match should actually be at Estadio Azteca

Every agency gutted by DOGE has a version of this problem. But inaccurate weather forecasting is a particularly visible one to the average person.

Unprecedented corruption

Or this one

I like this thread, but a quick note: in 1991, Gerald Rosenberg published The Hollow Hope. It argued that progressive victories at SCOTUS diverted movements into courts and away from the democratic process, leading to worse outcomes. It sparked a lot of debate, which is worth looking at, e.g. 👇

I'm in @slate.com writing about how this World Cup is the Diaspora World Cup, and argue there may be 48 home teams not three:

Freed Blacks did not advocate for a unique set of rules that catered only to their situation. Nor did they seek to advance their own position relative to, or at expense & exclusion of, other marginalized groups…The firmest foundation for freedom require[d] an anticaste reset…& would benefit all.

👇🎯 Either everyone has rights or no one has rights

I went to the Egyptian street food stand for lunch and now I feel way better.

Me, every time I check the news:

Trans rights are human rights always and forever.

It would have been cool if when I've had a medical event I got 4 months off instead of working through it and taking care of myself and my work both extremely poorly and prolonging things.

Donald Trump came one vote away from getting the Supreme Court to say that the 14th Amendment does not guarantee birthright citizenship for the children of undocumented and temporary immigrants, a view held only by fringe far-right nativists until VERY recently. This is shocking. I am stunned.

So he's gonna advocate for all people with depression to get four months off for rehabilitation, right? And he's gonna tell RFK jr to fuck off with his quest to limit the medication that Kean is very clearly taking to be functional?

I never want to hear about how we are "coddling" students by giving them a very reasonable accommodation ever again.

oh please, he could've told anyone at any time, but he didn't. using severe mental illness as an excuse for disappearing for *months* as *a congressman* is not just embarrassing, it harms the rest of us with those illnesses.
