To be a historian is to speak ill of the dead and the rest of you should take more history classes and join us.

A GOP senator died. No, not that one. Also a state party will have to replace Graham as its candidate. No, not that one.

Hope no news outlets accidentally hit send on their prepped oMitchuary instead of their Lindsay graham one

we don’t say “he died” we say “he speaks with the mitches”

Lindsey Graham is dead at 71. Elected U.S. House 1995 and to the U.S. Senate in 2003, Graham was Chair of the Senate Budget Committee I am hopeful that in death, he can do what he refused to do in life - help the American people: I hope this makes more budget reconciliation vehicles less likely.

I spoke with Mitch McConnell for about 20 minutes tonight and then he was like "Oh, wait Lindsey Graham just showed up, wanna talk to him?"

before passing away he explained that his famous quote "if we nominate trump, we will get destroyed, and we'll deserve it" was specifically a reference to his own death from parasite-induced diarrhea caused by trump

imo argentina has been wiping players out in that situation all game, embolo tried to preempt it and even stuck his leg out and made contact. it's a dive, but it's also the result of the referee letting argentina clatter into swiss players without punishment.

This is fucking unbelievable

The Swiss hate any deficit.

If you want a goal, just look away from the tv and down at your phone for a split second. Works like a charm.

all of these are also stories about how Americans were lovely gracious welcoming hosts — including Americans from the diasporas of other competing countries!! — and gosh I hope that’s never lost when the historians write about this tournament

Goddammit

Idk how haaland gets injured standing around waiting for service

Norway really looking exhausted and out of their depth here

Poor Nyland got zero help there

every five foot something mexican male to haaland rn

Norway pay their female international players the same amount as their male players and have done since 2017.

Noting again that the rule will affect ALL grants, not just scientific grants - housing, agriculatural, education, humanities, ALL federal financial assistance.

Talked with my good friend Mitch McConnell this morning. We have so much in common, we both love soup and snow peas, we love the outdoors, and talking and not talking. We can talk or not talk for hours and never run out of things to not talk about.

I did a 20 minute FTP test with Mitch McConnell, he put out a respectable 3.4 w/kg

am officially in the camp of VAR exists only so they can influence games to produce desired outcomes

incredible how messi goals never require us going back 100 yards for 20 min and cross examining everyone in a 5 mile radius in order to be allowed

Is it possible that the USMNT thought this was going to be an exhibition match at the Great American State Fair rather than the World Cup?

Oh honest to god with the fighter jets

You are watching CONCACAF AFTER DARK™

AFTER REVIEW NUMBER 20 USA DID NOTHING WRONG FINAL DECISION NO RED CARD

Asking how people can partake in joyful acts during a period of immense suffering leads me to believe this is your first time at the suffering rodeo.

[person who has never seen soccer before] “oh no is that guy hurt?”

we are one day away from the funniest VAR offsides graphic ever

Me getting mad thinking about Belgium for the next 4 days

They like Trump. They want to help him rule us like a king

We need our most deranged SEC bag men to get the Balogun red overturned

Run ads pointing out that 4 Justices of the United States Supreme Court would have disallowed this goal.

I've had some real problems with the refereeing in this World Cup where VR has been used to create questionable calls instead of reverse wrong ones (goals disallowed because a butt was past a line, or penalties not given for clear infractions), but what just happened w Senegal was egregious cheating

What a bullshit call man

And it’s not just science. ALL federal financial assistance - housing, food, agriculture, arts, humanities - all of it. This is the January 2025 attempted murder of federal grants, just by a thousand cuts. An utter catastrophe.

The three branches of the United States government, as delineated in the Constitution, are the God Emperor, The High Council of the Six Ayatollahs, and the Federal Reserve

“severe weather” it’s drizzling lmao

bluesky the balls app

THIERRY: We sending Turkiye to Ibiza? ZLATAN: Blackpool [Thierry and Rebecca start laughing] ZLATAN: Disgusting beaches full of pale people ALEXI: I played in Serie A you know ZLATAN: Shut up

We’re really gonna regret wasting the name “Watergate,” huh

reflecting pool girl summer [trying to change myself and making it worse]

Now we know how he killed the pope

Sure let's attack get out the vote efforts in NYC. What have they accomplished recently, aside from electing the most progressive mayor the city's seen in ages, just last year.

Dempsey Lalas Lloyd is such a cursed panel

The claim that "Israel wants to kill its way out of every problem" is the sort of thing that tends to draw a DOJ investigation and the blocking of federal funds when made by campus actors.

This pivot by the admin is so utterly insane. “Iran should have nukes actually” after over a decade of screeching about the JCPOA
