FULL TIME: Fishies 1 - 5 Timbers It’s a bludgeoning. The Timbers came to Seattle 5 - one reason. Inspired performance from the team under interim coach Jack Cassidy. Best possible start to the second half of the season. #RCTID

Last screenshot of an air quality meter for today:

What I’m really loving is that there’s a decisive 4 goals on the board… and they aren’t even letting up on trying for a 5th. You love to see it. #RCTID

So that interim coach… he’s getting the job, right? #rctid

Not quite willing to declare that yet, but we’re up by 3 in Seattle, plus Paul Rothrock has a new really dumb looking haircut, so things are looking up!

22 to 1 on passes into the opponent's box is absolutely diabolical

Portland remains undefeated #RCTID www.reddit.com/r/timbers/s/...

Not in the FORTRESS OF AMERICAN SOCCER! LOL #rctid

No Caps, No Cascadia. #RCTID

Game hasn’t even started and I’m already annoyed with this MLS broadcast. How many fucking times will this announcer say “derby” as “darby”—I’m not watching a Premiere League game, drop the fucking British shit.

Can't even make a good Torment Nexus, the team keeps dealing with bullshit executive decisions, cost-cutting measures and countless rounds of focus-testing.

hey, remember: don't eat anything and don't breathe

Today you hear lots of "good old days" rhetoric about the early internet--as if the gross corruption and immoral corporate grifting wasn't a problem. The rot was there from the start, quite intentionally, as this article points out. english.elpais.com/opinion/2026...

Kinda sums up the whole race at the moment that the only candidate even paying lip service to transit issues Hong. The rest of the field has seemed content to sleep walk through this primary and will have no one but themselves to blame if Hong ultimately wins francescahong.com/policy/citie...

The first Gubernatorial candidate to come out with a workable, serious plan to start fixing Wisconsin transit funding without service cuts, and makes it a real talking point in their campaign, gets my vote. I’m not holding my breath that this candidate will materialize…

Vehicular cyclists have been at this for 50+ years. If public education was the key to bike safety, the United States would be the safest country for cycling in the world. These holdouts from a bygone era can't see that their philosophy is bankrupt and hasn't worked.

The persons responsible for these gross violations of due process, from the most minor official to the uppermost government office, should face substantial prison time and massive personal liability for every single case like this. But unfortunately this is America so we’ll just shrug it off.

The largest margin of victory in the Henny Derby since the last time these two teams played

Such a decisive victory that they dimmed the lights and lit some fireworks before even the full 90. Oh wait, they’ve dispatched a fire truck. Might’ve just popped a transformer. Oh well, still a great win with some bonus magic smoke. 🦩💨🚒

Apologies re: local air quality. It’s not actually the Canadian smoke here quite yet. It’s from all the Mingo goals. Sorry, Not Sorry. 🦩💨

Turns out the big cups work great for some actual hydration too. 😅 #pausadehidratacion

Henny Derby Half-Time thought - I love a two goal lead - Truly amazing how much better this team is at set pieces compared to last year. -It’s a derby so that shit don’t matter and I’ll be STRESSED this second half

All that time wasting doubly bit him in the ass with FMFC getting a goal in extra minutes. LOL

And the birds that don’t choke will carry them away and drop them into Puget Sound where they’ll poison the orcas. Seattle Sounders, why do you hate the birds *and* the orcas? 🤔🫍

Henny Derby on a Wednesday is criminal USL FIX IT

a day light savings time bill pops up in congress every year, often twice a year. and whenever it's proposed there is zero traction. now there's movement, but i do not care at all. day light savings time is the 2,4152,393rd thing I NEED congress to address this year, this month, this week, this day

After one last stupid hijacking of my iPhone audio, I’ve had enough. Facebook app deleted. What a piece of shit app. I wish I could completely cut Meta out of my life, but it’s at least a start.

Complete bloodbath. Ugh.

- Monetizing the presidency is "technically" illegal - Threatening NATO allies with conquest is "technically" illegal - Coups are "technically" illegal - Cancelling programs funded by Congress is "technically" illegal - War without Congress/UNSC approval is "technically" illegal <all together now>

There's an oblique reference to the pension scandal having launched careers, but no follow through to mention that it was Scott Walker who rode this thing to the County Executive's office and beyond

Lot of follows and likes lately from very bot-looking accounts. They post seemingly organic content but all seem to have the same pattern of account age, posting tone, account name structure… apologies if you’re real and I just accused you of being a bot. 😂🤖

Cute guy sighting completely derailed by the presence of a Harry Kane jersey. 😤

'the explicit purpose of corridor zoning is to concentrate both air pollution and the perceived social pollution of apartment dwellers in quarantine zones that single-family homeowners can avoid.' yup

People are gonna fucking hate this if it actually happens. Enjoy all these post 8am sunrises

Somehow, I, a global record store connoisseur, had not heard of this place until I went on my After-Christmas Suburban Milwaukee adventure last year... came up on a search and had to check it out... definitely the best record shop in Wisconsin. Had no idea it had such a crazy history! 🎧

"We are flexible realists" says the guy who threatened the pope with an Avignon Papacy, who works for a DecDef that systematically blocks women and Black officers, and for a President who stumbled into an unwinnable war because he was bored.

An amazing quote from Lindsey Graham in this Atlantic story. It really captures an essential truth about politics that too few people ever really come to terms with. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

We’re going to get a lot more of this stuff with AI. (The Oregon Brewers Fest died years ago.) It is not a good time for facts.

Lessons learned from BRT...it is an iterative process that you simply cant throw money at once and say "I have TSP now". Much like every traffic signal system. Also, I cant shut up about TSP.

Sanity check: - 2026 will be a D wave year - Any leading D contender is favored in Nov - General election variability between them is within the MOE in all polls - Incumbency is *very* strong in Wisconsin (RonJon ‘22, Scooter ‘18). Not a factor here. Vote for who you like best. It will be okay!

Soglin posted a link to this LTE and I'm wondering what the actual story is here. A hearsay tale of this happening? Or is this *really* happening and what's the full story? This doesn't make much sense: founding a "group home" to "claim single-family zoning protections." What does that even mean?

Funny little clip from the Forward Madison vs Union Omaha match To be clear, that guy swiping his hand at the ball is not the goalkeeper and this is in the 30th minute when it's 1-0 to Omaha like ... what is he doing
