have been distracting myself from The Situation in the Middle East with this preliminary investigation into who owns Brooklyn Football Club: little did I know, BKFC is part of a multi-club, multi-sport ownership group stretching from Quebec to Naples

very exciting hell yeah

"Hormuz does not yet signal the end of this hydrocarbon dollar complex, which has always been a combustible mix of power and volatility. But it does reveal the structural changes that would be needed for a hegemonic transition."

*takes drag from cigarette* I remember when this was an entry-level position

thinking about how close that bullet in Butler, PA was

🙄🙄🙄

I feel nothing about the Nasa launch. sue me!

This seems like strangely religious fundamentalist and exterminatory behaviour from the liberal bastion and only democracy in the Middle East, but I’m sure there’ll be a gaggle of the most detestable columnists on the planet explaining why this is actually more complex and correct shortly.

hands off PIX!

not to do lib doomerism but if they strike (or severely restrict) birthright citizenship that's pretty much the ball game as far as the republic is concerned

"More than a mere homology or reactionary wish fulfillment then, the Amazon Prime-ification of deportations and migrant detention evokes an internal relationship between incarceration and logistics, prison and port, worker and detainee."

That Ireland (an allegedly neutral country) is still allowing US and Israeli planes full of munitions thru its airspace and troop transports refuel at Shannon while Italy, Spain and France (NATO Members) refuse is certainly something worth thinking about

icymi, why so many people are approaching tomorrow with dread, fury, and a willingness to burn the court to the ground if—

this week's Match Report, from Brooklyn FC men's fourth loss on the spin. even as the rest of the stands remain empty—it was a very cold night, to be fair—the supporters groups are getting more organized.

yes... YES

"the field of geography is split between tech nerds and communists."

insane and of a piece with the tactic of blocking Muslims from accessing Al-Aqsa Mosque during Ramadan, but also kind of hilarious insofar as it forces evangelical Christian zionists to pretend like they care about Catholics

two matches in a row now! wow what is this feeling

I am ready to learn

I learned a lot about lower league football in the US from union leader Connor Tobin, including that many clubs are as likely to try to find ways to cut players lose in case of injury as they are to invest in their treatment and recovery. read the full interview here: substack.com/home/post/p-...

really funny to follow up not having an answer to the question about a united Ireland with this

I thought this bit, on football clubs creating value for a community versus extracting value from it, was particularly interesting

today I have a lengthy interview with Connor Tobin of the USLPA, the union representing players in the lower leagues of American soccer. as the union prepares for the possibility of a strike, we discussed exploitation and abuse in the game and labor's role in the development of US soccer culture

VAMOS JAVIER BARDEM

fuck it. get relegated, clear out the squad, rebuild around the young players, win the Championship, come back. hard reset.

I would have a better time punching myself in the dick than watching this tottenham hotspur side

I think what sucks is the call is (technically) correct, but also this level of pulling/contact would lead to a penalty on every corner.

football is so fucked man what are we even doing here
