Sheryl and Jordan know ball.

Appeasing potential opponents is expensive but I guess the taxpayers will pay for it.

Fam. 😂

@zohrankmamdani.bsky.social went to Eid prayers in an Arsenal kurta and I am deceased. 😂 #NorthLondonForever

#BREAKING Uganda shuts border with DR Congo over Ebola outbreak: health ministry

Everyone is trying to invent use cases for AI that simply are not there. We barely know what to do with +/-, can we relax? #wnba

Every country that has benefited from Cuba’s medical diplomacy has an obligation to speak up for Cuban people in the face of US aggression.

I’ve been working on a project that has required a little more public decorum on my part and so I’ve been a little more careful about what I post publicly. But now the project is over and y’all are gonna get these political opinions. 😂

UK is approaching an energy milestone that would have seemed impossible during the Industrial Revolution #OffshoreWind has become one of Britain’s strongest energy advantages due to favorable coastal conditions. Massive offshore installations now generate electricity at utility scale #ActOnClimate

I did an image search for “Korea parliament brawl” because I was looking for a specific meme and I was truly shocked by how many pages of results came up. What if the answer to electoral violence is just letting legislators swing at each other instead of them mobilising voters against each other?

Problems...

Freedom! (There are no Sarafina gifs on Bluesky).

WIRED got a copy of a New York Intelligence and Counterterrorism Bureau report that has a curious term for opposition to AI development and data centers: "anti-tech violent extremist activity." Great reporting here on how law enforcement is tracking big tech opponents www.wired.com/story/us-law...

Who was it who was keeping track of concussions? Is Ola Kosu #8? Also worth noting that many of these concussions are happening in practice. #wnba

Trump is now daydreaming about fictional victories over Iran and getting pre-mad that the media isn't covering them fawningly enough. Bonkers coo coo stuff.

I wrote about Elon Musk's attack on Lupita Nyong'o, and how it is important to put that in the context of the fact that Musk launched an actual ongoing genocide against non-white people which has already killed hundreds of thousands. www.everythingishorrible.net/p/musk-attac...

Our government feels like when Scar took over after Mufasa died. Just a bunch of ecological damage and hyenas running around this mf.

That guy who is trying to live forever in part by getting transfusions of his son’s blood has decided that part of his life’s work is tweeting about his girlfriend’s reproductive system.

We have dreamed of days like this. 🥹 #wnba

The first major heat wave of the season triggered water shortages in the UK and has been linked to several deaths in France.

The reigning MVP of the MNBA is flinging himself onto the floor before anyone touches him for foul calls. A third year player in the #WNBA is playing with two plugs in her nose to stop the nosebleed she got while defending a play. Choose your fighter.

At this point the New York Liberty should give Ellie a ten day. 😂 #wnba

Curious to see how Winterburn does this game. She wasn’t great last time and yet they waived Sug, Haley and Kamiah instead who had higher +/-ses. #wnba

"The flagship piece of secondary legislation under the EU’s flagship AI law made human rights (the thing the EU spent the entire ‘Brussels Effect’-era selling itself on) into a tickbox companies could choose to ignore. Go simplification!" euobserver.com/217590/simpl...

Heatwave: Indians warned to stay indoors as temperatures soar

A PhD student at Stanford noticed her classmates were asking Al to write their breakup texts. So she ran a study. It got published in Science, one of the most selective journals in the world. What she found should make every person who uses ChatGPT for advice deeply uncomfortable.

I’m saying.

They’re probably going to give Eastern conference player of the week to Angel Reese because of her clutch finishes but it really should be Jordin Canada who has had an amazing start to the season. #wnba

#AfricaDay calls for celebrating heroes. Here is to Jean-Jacques Muyembe, Congolese doctor who discovered the ebola virus, and later pioneered its first therapy, which was ignored for many years. He's still battling on during the current outbreak. #AfricaSky #heroes www.huffpost.com/entry/ebola-...

If only the New York Liberty had had a chance to retain one of the best perimeter defenders in the league during free agency, 👀 #wnba

Ya'll. I am shook. In a good way. Pope Leo XIV makes historic apology for Holy See's own role in legitimizing Slavery

🇻🇦 ✨ Pope Leo XIV called on Monday for the "disarming" of artificial intelligence in his long-awaited manifesto on the rapidly developing technology, and warned of "new forms of slavery" behind its rise ➡️ u.afp.com/SDkC

Oof.

Bring back people being at peace with asynchronous communication.

Happy Africa Day! A luta continua. youtu.be/5zhlIvZZtfA?...

Israeli army orders evacuations of 10 Lebanon villages ahead of strikes - https://www.middleeasteye.net/live-blog/live-blog-update/israeli-army-orders-evacuations-10-lebanon-villages-ahead-strikes

Angel [expletive] Reese!! #wnba

This is usually the point in an Atlanta Dream game when Naz or Maya would take over. But Maya is no longer with the team and Naz is playing through injury as well as a new role for herself. #wnba

Put Te-Hina in Karl. We need a few buckets to go in. #wnba

Izzy Borlase, do you know you only have five minutes? #wnba

There’s also a clip from the post game conference where CC laughs off the prospect of being fined because she doesn’t experience them as consequences for her behaviour. #wnba

Bri Jones, do something. 😭 #wnba

Stop trying to understand the interplayer dynamics of the #WNBA using NBA lenses. Unless you are literally A’ja Wilson or Diana Taurasi, the average WNBA player is going to change teams at least once a career, often more. The adversarial trope doesn’t hold - doesn’t mean they’re not locked in.

Cuba's minister of energy confirmed reserves are gone — with just enough diesel left to keep hospitals online. The UN has classified Washington's blockade a humanitarian crisis.

There are major Arsenal celebrations in at least four towns in Kenya today - Nairobi, Kisumu, Eldoret, and Lodwar. Not as large as North London but some of the biggest non-religious, non-political gatherings that have happened in a while.

“Fernando Bastias Robayo, a lawyer representing the victims’ families, says “nothing like this has ever happened in Ecuador before”. He adds: “There are dozens and dozens of forced disappearances, extrajudicial killings, torture – and none of it is being properly investigated.””

Catching up on the games from last night and once again: Kate Martin would have had a better year 3 if she had gone to AU or overseas instead of Unrivaled. Same with Saniya Rivers. #wnba
