Working in refugee spaces is increasingly dark. It has nothing to do with refugees themselves, as they are all literal balls of inspiration, sunshine, and rainbows, and I am on the verge of going Mama Bear over this all.the.time.

@hcrichardson.bsky.social is easily in my top 3 list of persons named Heather, which says a lot considering I would put myself in that list. I don't have a third yet, but I'm humble enough to assume I've missed a real good Heather out there somewhere.

France - Spain - Norway - Egypt would be my preferred semi-final, and I think I'll get half of that

Seattle is basically Belgium's home stadium at this point.

What if we kissed.......... After seizing the means of production .....??

The positive of Balogun is it's the first time a Republican has intervened to reduce a black man's sentence.

Team Colonizer for this game, Korea deserves karmic retribution.

Thanks to whoever made that deposit into the FIFA account so that Balogun could play tomorrow. We appreciate your contribution 🙏

…and lead us not into temptation #zhanglinghe

A local Syrian refugee family plans to return to Syria because their legal status changed. They don’t want to risk being separated from their young children in detention camps, particularly after hearing about the psychological distress the children suffer: trauma-induced mutism & not eating.

I stand corrected. Prof was right. No drama for me.

unsolicited heat suggestion: you probably need more coverage, not less. light natural fibers that cover shoulders etc, not tight athletic fabrics that leave a lot of skin exposed

I love a Gorya/Thyme reunion 🥹💗💫 #F4Thailand

ACAB includes VAR

My prof, suggesting I should plan to give my whole life and free time to this course and not make other plans...yeah that's all fine but

When your dad is from Norway and your mom is from Japan….you REALLY want Sweden to lose this game.

Ok Japan, we got the master class lesson in passing. Now do the fun stuff.

I really should stop listening to any video that starts with, "this may be hard to hear, but..."

I can't stand Meng ZiYi. There are a few actresses in entertainment that have had so much work done it pains me to watch them onscreen (ahem Park MinYoung). BUT #BlossomsofPower has HeYu and HeYi? I know, it's an unpopular take.

#TheFirstJasmine has some of the deepest emotional subtext I've ever seen in a cdrama before. Hats off to the directors, production, and actors for this one. Episode 30 & 31 have been like reliving the deepest depression of my life, thanks a lot for that. /sarcasm

"Lee Joon Gi has been offered the role of a villain." fuck it, I'm in

Canada, you have a really bad example downstairs: learn from it.

HIYYYY

Japan is making this look way too easy, and they’re doing it without two of their top players (out to injury).

This Japan strategy looks exactly like Korea’s against Mexico, but executed better.

cdrama directors: How will we make the characters from this far off land look different than people from the capital?!

Today's to do list: 1. Get caught up on The First Jasmine 2. Watch Japan destroy Tunisia

Halfway through EP 12 of #TheFirstJasmine and did NOT see Mr McHottie Pants going dark and evil. I knew I was starting to like him for a reason!

That’s it, Mexico is going in the book

Wow so South Korea is single again. 👀 Rough breakup with Mexico, who is playing the vengeful ex with gusto.

This Mexico/Korea game is the dirtiest game I've seen all World Cup. How the F much did they pay these refs? They're getting their money's worth!

We are all cheering for Iran, right?

"Your mother has lived in her dream for eight years. It's harming her now, so she has to wake up." Well if that's ain't foreshadowing, I don't know what is. #TheFirstJasmine <EP 7>

Me, trying to wade through @danisdiary.bsky.social theory posts without getting spoiled for #TheFirstJasmine

The cdrama #LoveHasFireworks added to iQIYI! www.iq.com//album/el-am...

Started #TheFirstJasmine yesterday..calculating how late I have to stay up tonight to catch up to y'all

Don't forget that Japan is doing this with Mitoma, Endo and Minamino all out injured. The J.League has built a really good development system that is churning out high level talent. The Samurai Blue are just flat out good and that's not going to change anytime soon.

Jesus that Holland strip is dreadful. They look like ghosts from Scooby Doo.. #worldcup #holland #netherlands #japan

Japan v Netherlands starting at 3pm CST. 40 more minutes. Let’s go SAMURAI BLUE!

🇯🇵⚽️👏🏼 頑張れ！

Dropped a couple kdramas and couldn't be more excited to be back in cdramaland. #TheFirstJasmine here we gooooo don't do me dirty!

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but the only natives to America are brown. After foreigners arrived, the entire landmass was filled with immigrants. We are a nation of different ethnicities from all over the world. We do not have a standard look or singular culture or even official language.

I like how regular Americans are all cool and welcoming to other countries and hype them up at every turn. It’s a nice counterbalance to the administration constantly giving them the middle finger.

People complaining about the start time of the KOR & CZE match…lol try being a premier league fan in PST your whole life. Suck it up buttercup.

GOOD MORNING NEW YORK CITY.
