I am a Protestant to my very bones, and even *I* feel partly offended on behalf of Catholics by the trad Catholic grandstanding and wailing about what was *always* going to happen. 😂

Will I watch 1776 again this weekend? Yes. Yes I will. 😆

Absolutely insane that Cape Verde — a country of 500,000 — played Spain, Uruguay and Argentina…and lost to none of them in regulation. Easily one of the greatest performances in World Cup history.

Fuck yes

If you were cool with this, you can shove that "Happy Independence Day" up your ass.

Primaries. In safely blue areas, benefitting from decades of work done by Democratic activists, by voters for whom it is low-risk to give them a trial period to see if it works. That's politics on Easy mode. Get back to me when they start flipping red seats.

I tried to post World Cup video right after the game After 5 failed attempts I decided to capture the time it took BlueskyAcct is trolling on Threads why bluesky is superior but one can’t even post about the world’s biggest sporting event in real time I posted immediately after game to every app

Anti-Israel propaganda is very a very lucrative business. www.timesofisrael.com/report-alleg...

I don’t think we appreciate Zendaya & Tom Holland enough for slipping off quietly, getting married in front of close friends & family, and keeping it to themselves, keeping the media from turning it into an unavoidable circus of a media holiday. This post is unrelated to anything else. Swear.

And you believe this because of three races in New York City that were already very blue seats. And a couple others. Question for you. Did you pay any attention at all to the incumbents that won their elections? Because there were a shit ton of them. Did you know any of this? You're delusional lol.

What is victim-blaming? Victim-blaming is a form of gaslighting. It occurs when the victim of a crime, violence, or harassment is blamed or made to feel responsible for the action. -Roamers Therapy, LLC

For folks that don't watch football much. It's not that Capo Verde, a tiny nation, managed to make it this far. It's that they made every team work for it. They weren't the classic minnow who played negative football and scraped by. They were equals to Argentina today. Incredible. Bravo. A classic.

The entire African country of Cabo Verde has 3% of the population of the Argentinian city of Buenos Aires. Its total land mass is roughly equivalent to Argentina's third largest national park. They nearly defeated the world's powerhouse team.

Oh so NOW all of a sudden Bluesky is fine with a small island nation handing Argentina humiliating L after Ls on their home turf?

What I'm celebrating? That the people survive and thrive. You want to despair? Well, that's your choice. My America is far more than Trump

Cabo Verde, you made Argentina fight for their lives against you. The former champions had to dig deep to beat you. I believed in you and I am not disappointed even though I'm sure you are right now. You humbled kings today.

Last year ICE said a man tried to murder a female ICE officer while she was trying to arrest him. They swore under oath he grabbed her by the neck and tried to choke her to death. He was even indicted for attempted murder. Problem is, it never happened! Bystander video unraveled the lie.

The Israeli team is already on the ground. There will be no flotillas to VZ, or Ukraine, or Sudan...

The antisemites will come for you, too, @bradlander.bsky.social

Both Israel and Palestine are good with a one-state solution, but there's a minor catch: neither is willing to share it. 2SS is a long way from possible. But it's still the only solution that doesn't end in massive ethnic cleansing.

DSA is turning into a white supremacist cult. of course they’re going to go after Jeffries. Despicable.

Orla is kinda cool!!! #DragonAgeTheVeilguard #DragonAge #DATV #OrlaMercar #Rook

What sovereignty are we giving up for Israel? Israel asked for our help with a bad idea: Attacking Iran. Bush Jr. said no. Obama said no. Biden said no. Trump said yes. You can blame Israel all you want (and I know you want to) but that's on the voters. And ones who refused to vote for Kamala.

It’s so fun how leftists say they couldn’t vote for Harris because Liz Cheney agrees with her about valuing democracy and the rule of law But they can’t wait to support someone David Duke agrees with about hating interracial marriage. And people still think leftists are progressive! Insane.

First it was bad that Chuck Schumer supposedly thought that she would be a good candidate and was recommending that she run. Now supposedly it's bad that Chuck Schumer didn't get better candidates. But you all defended this guy every step of the fucking way and if not why even make that argument?

She was a great candidate and they made a stupid fucking decision. Chuck Schumer is not the person to blame for that. Saying that he is is just delusional and it sounds like you have Schumer derangement syndrome honestly. It's okay to admit that the Maine voters seem to fucking suck. It's true.

I mean it's just not Chuck Schumer's fault that the people in Maine decided that the most unqualified candidate in history is a better choice than the popular governor in their actual state that has a great record. It's the oldest state in the country. They just re-elected their other senator at 80.

my take on this is thus: if a big piece of evidence that someone's a Nazi like having a big Nazi tattoo and telling people that its a Nazi Tattoo for many years comes out, its not up to me to prove they're a Nazi, its up to them to put forward convincing proof they're not a Nazi.

🧵 Trump yesterday: "How a Jewish person can vote for a Democrat is beyond me. I've been the best president in the history of Israel and they acknowledge it." One sentence, several antisemitic assumptions packed inside. Let's break them down.

DSA has scrubbed and rewritten their platform page since Trump came in, but the internet doesn’t forget: “Abolish USAID, NED, Voice of America, and other governmental agencies that cynically disguise capitalist control as aid and journalism.” web.archive.org/web/20241025...

During the 2024 election "abolish USAID" was a policy explicitly advocated by DSA. Not "reform", not "replace with mutual aid", just straight-up abolish because apparently it's better that people die than receive food or medicine tainted by capitalism. DSA is genocidal. bsky.app/profile/uber...

Armenia restricts voting on parliamentary elections only for citizens who lived in Armenia in past year out of two years. This is stricter than Israel rule (you can vote but you have to come to Israel). This is for sure an act to restrict voting for Russian resident Armenians.

I think it's working so... Everyone, meet Orla Mercar, she's ready to blow away Venatori and kiss Lucanis! She goes by She/They pronouns! 🥰 #DragonAge #DragonAgeTheVeilguard #DATV #OrlaMercar #ShadowDragon #RookReveal

Russia can’t wage war because the oligarchs stole all the money for weapons Trump created Freedom 250 and stole all the funding from the nonprofit America 250 He stole $100M And put on a shitty show He ruins everything and we just stand there

How it looks away from my desk 😍

there are various plausible explanations for this, but I'm increasingly coming to the conclusion that the correct one is that a plurality of Gen Z think a pogrom would be based

We have independent attestation from Josephus and Tacitus, neither of whom would have a strong motive to make him up
