So proud of this @afcwimbledon1889.bsky.social side. It’s early, but being closer to the playoffs than the drop zone feels real good right now. Gutsy win on the road against a good @drfcofficial.bsky.social team. Up the Dons!

One of these rich dudes invested in a food company with all proceeds going to kids in need. The other started Sundance Institute, boosting the lives of countless artists. Hey modern rich dudes, don't be a typical greedy AI crypto-prick, be like these two.

Replacing "transgender is like ferrari" with "transgender is like microwave" from now on after this great bit

Hear me out, what if my kids' schools didn't have to send home fundraisers bribing me and my kids with prizes & trinkets every few weeks, like this affiliate advertising scheme sent home with my 7yo on lanyard, and instead actually funded thriving public schools with tax dollars? Just stop it.

Post a perfect album from the 90s that isn’t Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, or Alice In Chains.

This is the first time I’ve ever even heard of Jerry. Am I just having a fundamentally different experience here than everyone else?

There is so much more in the relationship between teaching & learning, but rather than understand & invest in those important aspects, our policy bias is to buy "high quality" scripts & programs to patch the structural deficits caused by under-resourced schools & overworked & undertrained staff.

Ahh, week two of the college football season. That magical window between the marquee season-opening nonconference matchups and the start of the conference slate, when all the top teams play home games against the boys from Southwest Roast Beef State.

This is great news Sesame Street is the last remnant of the idea that television could educate and uplift kids and instruct them on how to be decent citizens and make them feel understood rather than persecuted It needs to be where everyone can see it

I enjoyed this. And what an infectious laugh. ❤️ "Reporter left speechless after witnessing Japan's new $70 million Maglev train in action at 310 mph"

Watching the Premier League this weekend, and it needs to be said: no football kit has ever been improved by the addition of piping.

That’s certainly something.

remember folks, we cant have gun restrictions because if we do the federal government will occupy our streets, imprison people without due process, ship dissidents to foreign gulags and things of that nature

Mayor Brandon of Chicago responds to a question from a reporter if pushing back will make things harder? “Can you imagine if my ancestors would have had the same rationale? Let’s not fight against the Confederacy. Let’s just try to get along, and maybe one day they’ll give us our freedom?”

Really impressive home win - 9 points from the first five games of the L1 season is enormous, and they’ve come against quality opponents. Up the Dons!

Review: Sungazer was top 3 most fun I’ve ever had at a live show, and totally worth the wait. Snarky Puppy played some deeper cuts and some old classics, and Sleeper was akin to a spiritual experience. And we bumped into one of my former students between sets!

Finally off Instagram, so now y’all get my photos. Kari and me at Sungazer and Snarky Puppy tonight!

The only thing I can say about this paragraph is read it. Sit with it. Read it again. @michaelharriot.bsky.social

Good to see this getting the attention it deserves. Your users are watching @bsky.app. Time is yours to step up or flop on this front.

This is the best product listing copy I’ve ever read

The first time Charlie Chaplin used his voice in a film, he wielded it to forcefully condemn the rising forces of fascism around the globe. Will we listen to his words today?

every time i eat any sort of poultry leg or some such i am whisked back to this post

Goalkeeper isn’t by any means my biggest concern with this Revs team, but it’s a delight to have Matt Turner back all the same.

He will never hit a sweeter goal in the rest of his career. Shades of Rooney to RVP against Villa. Bravo Sounders and bravo de la Vega.

In my experience there are three kinds of fantasy magic novels:

England led for all of about five minutes in the entire knockout stages of the Euros, but they go home back to back champions. Spain were the best team in the tournament, but England did it when it mattered. Congrats to the Lionesses - it’s coming home again!

Tom Lehrer was cool as fuck, and his decision to release his work into the public domain was a classy move. But this was *his* choice, presumably because he had enough income. It’s not something artists should have forced upon them by unscrupulous tech companies and dim, credulous governments.

You will never see a more perfect spray chart.

These Euros, y’all.

Gold Cup continues to bring the CONCACAF heat: El Salvador with two players sent off *in the first half,* but somehow this thing is still scoreless.

Watching the USMNT-Haiti Gold Cup match, and Haiti is dominating the tournament All-Name team, starting Providence, Experience and Matusala, with Innonence on the bench.

There are any number of reasons why AI is problematic in education, but this is the most fundamental.

Is it just me, or is the audio on the FS1 broadcast of @usmnt.ussoccer.com vs KSA a bit behind?

MASSIVE good news for trans people in the United States. A federal judge has just granted class action status to transgender people looking to update their passports. This means that very shorty, the window will open to update your passports with the correct gender marker.

This is a helluva letter
