Never assume our willingness to watch free football!

Someone called this the Strand of God. 🤣

He made a call to the VAR booth

apparently var and the sensor in the ball only activate when a favorite concedes a goal

The VAR official who disallowed the Egypt goal is the same one who missed the cable interference on the England goal. I think that maybe this guy should be unemployed.

This is just what Lutherans look like when giddily celebrating.

Harry Kane always looks a little bit like he just lost a toddler at the supermarket

Harry Kane looks like a villain James Spader would’ve played in a John Hughes movie

My main issue with Haaland is that he normalizes Manchester City and kids that don’t know better might start thinking it’s ok to support that club

That Sounders renewal email I just got was definitely written by Chat GPT lmao

A thread that really shouldn’t be that long, but is. Because ACAB.

The University of Washington has some very detailed reports they have made about WHY this is happening. They are using Washington States DOL data. It’s illegal in WA, but the system is accessed via law enforcement and the Feds keep using it anyway. They are most likely doing this EVERYWHERE. 🧵

DID YOU KNOW IF YOU FIND A HORSESHOE CRAB THATS BEEN TAGGED BY THE FISH AND WILDLIFE SERVICE AND SUBMIT THE LOCATION YOU SAW IT USING THE FORM ON FWS DOT GOV SLASH CRABTAG THEY SEND YOU A BEAUTIFUL CRAB PIN

We need Broken Windows theory but just for white collar crime.

I KNEW IT. Thanks, Harry, for reaffirming my intense dislike for you, and fuck off.

This, so much this.

History knows what they did and history will remember why DOJ did this.

"Someone has to speak up for the voiceless—like the unborn, or brain-dead former majority leaders. It’s the only way to defend the sanctity of life, which begins at conception and ends after the cutoff for a special election has passed."

Crazy how People is the remaining publication that just goes for the jugular.

Seattle:

Please take the time to read.

My snark-free thoughts on the Mitch McConnell situation as an actual MD:

we are scarily close to general artificial intelligence

Interesting: AI summaries mean Google is now indisputably a content creator and can be held libel (in Germany, at least) for incorrect AI information. www.dw.com/en/german-co...

Petulant foot-stomping has worked for Trump his entire life & when it doesn't work he just has no plan b, no backup, no other tools.

"The Department of Motor Vehicles requires Taco Bell outlets to have fresh sour cream." That makes as much sense as this.

The Library of Congress is acquiring Grant Wahl's papers, which is incredible news, even if it only makes me miss him more. Especially right now. time.com/article/2026...

I’m not a fan of constantly changing and adding rules to games. But we should ban the stutter step run up on penalties.

I want our next Dem president to bring back the WPA and just build infrastructure all across this country again. Build green energy, trains, housing, etc. We can have nice things (and nice bathrooms), but we have to invest in ourselves!

Trump’s comments on Platner June 6th: He’s a pig. Trump’s comments on Platner after the new allegations: It’s really a question of whether or not you believe the woman. A lot of people say big falsehoods

Heads up Seattle! Keep your eyes open, and wear your whistles.

ICE claims that Araujo drove into one of their SUVs with his van and then tried to run over an agent. There were no marks on the van and KHOU11's Jeremy Rogalski found surveillance footage showing ICE chasing Araujo and cutting him off. Renee Good all over again.

#ELB: BREAKING: “Trump fires all Election Assistance Commission members, leaving agency unable to act” (This is going to be a BFD if Trump Tries to Assert the EAC’s Powers over the Federal Voter Registration Form) https://electionlawblog.org/?p=157199

stunning Paris was how this whole mess got started

#WorldCup - sports not politics

ICE is surging in the Seattle area. (Map shows activity in the last week) Do you have your whistle with you?

Oh cool, an Easter egg feature that traps you in a driverless car and kidnaps you when it's decided you've misbehaved. Imagine what a hacker group or ICE can do with this. The fact that this is even functionally possible is horrifying.

this is my favorite thing that's ever happened

Viewership for Mexico vs. England is in: Telemundo: 23.1 million preliminary Total Audience Delivery. Fox: 21.742 million viewers. MORE THAN 44 MILLION PEOPLE WATHED THAT GAME IN THE UNITED STATES.

The animal escaped after apparently arriving inside a package at Meta's Bangkok office, injuring one employee before finally being caught. www.wired.com/story/one-of...

You really do wonder what MLS' priorities are because if you cant even be motivated to get people to your product at a moment like this, what DOES motivate you then?

iron rule of British politics is even if a guy who dresses as a bin becomes prime minister he will have been to Oxbridge

42m people watched the US-Belgium game. To compare: Highest viewership of any college football game: 35.6m (2006 Championship) Highest viewership of any NBA game: 35.9m (1998 NBA Finals, Chicago v Jazz) Highest MLB viewership this century: 40m (Cubs 2016)

Just feels like a good time to share this, I suppose. www.youtube.com/watch?v=BeCS...

One thing I don’t think men understand is that rape and assault are so ubiquitous—and so perpetually immune from consequence or recognition—that many women learn to talk about these incidents as of they’re mere inconveniences. We are not allowed to treat them with more gravity.

Imagine if you allowed yourself to feel the full weight and consequence of every sexual assault you have ever experienced. Imagine what would happen to you if you tried to get them recognized by others as serious and meaningful. Lol. Lmao.

I'd feel bad for the USMNT, but I’ve been a USWNT fan for decades and have watched the men’s team fly first class to lose while the women flew economy and had to fight in court for equal pay. The loser USMNT treated them like their servants while the women won world cups and gold medals.
