Maybe they need an entire roster of gay men then. In the words of Rapinoe “can’t win without gays!”

can’t believe a narcissist is being so publicly humiliated by a reflecting pool

Long before Messi or Ronaldo reached six World Cup appearances, Formiga and Homare Sawa did it in 2015, then Marta and Christine Sinclair did it in 2023. Formiga is the only player (male or female) to have played in seven World Cup tournaments.

No one is offside on stolen land fwiw

Throwing one more story into the "Is AI going to replace all jobs?" folder. finance.yahoo.com/sectors/tech...

my confidence that these people are going to lose is rising and my estimate of the amount of damage they are going to do on the way out, especially as they realize they're losing, is also rising

Where have we heard this before?

ARE YOU ENJOYING YOUR CHATGPT FRIENDS

Happy Wednesday! We are halfway through the week! The sunrise was beautiful on Cape Cod this morning, seen here just as the sun broke the horizon line. Tap for full size. I hope you have a great day!

my gf works corporate and is on a training about AI and there's a word cloud for "what do you use AI for." the largest word by far is "Nothing" and the trainer is PISSED

A theology built on male entitlement should not be shocked when it produces abusive men.

Fucking hell, CVS.

funniest thing i’ve ever seen

The Academy has banned AI from ever winning an Oscar. • Only roles “demonstrably performed by humans with their consent” can be nominated for acting Oscars • Screenplays “must be human-authored” to qualify for a nomination

I say it again and again: Because we don’t learn the real history of this country, we do not understand what this country is capable of. After 1870, 22 Black men served in Congress. By 1901, because of racist SCOTUS rulings, electoral coups and election cheating and violence, there were none.

The Voting Rights Act was a product of a disruptive social movement.

People with preexisting conditions also don’t deserve to die

DuckDuckGo not Google OpenOffice not MS Proton not Gmail BSky not Twitter 😉 (for now) Waterfox not Firefox

I have switched from MS Office to OpenOffice, largely to get away from the incessant prompts to activate CoPilot every time I opened a document. This is not productive, and therefore unacceptable in “productivity software”.

This Is Just To Say I have turned off the AI features that were in the update and which you were probably hoping to monetize Fuck you they were stupid so unnecessary and so annoying

How To Live A Good Life #oldknees

Google is so pro-AI that it's basically impossible to get rid of it. If you have to use it for work I get that you can't switch, but I use LibreOffice Impress. There are other alternatives here: alternativeto.net/software/goo...

Did Nazi Germany have a right to defend itself when it invaded most of its neighbours and kept people from a specific religion in concentration camps?

C'est dingue, à cette distance on ne dirait pas que c'est rempli de connards.

Babies spend their early language acquisition mostly mirroring. Videos like this remind me that every parent should be pouring nothing but loving, kind, and positive words into their babies because it's the first things they learn

My local electeds would need to make serious improvements to public transit funding before they could say something like this.

I have zero patience for hair pulling from anyone on any team

And to think this player captains her national team. 😳

if you think age verification for social media is about protecting children I also have three magic beans i'm willing to part with for a bargain

57 of my fellow students were arrested, academically disciplined, and barred from campus 2 weeks before finals. And then the visas of some of those students were quietly revoked. And then the DEI office was killed. And then we watched our mentors’ grants evaporate over “woke”.

It enrages me that the Iran fiasco had basically relegated Israel’s absolutely horrific assault on Lebanon to a sideshow which barely gets noticed. That alone should be a crisis that grips the urgent attention of the entire world and nobody even notices.

The party of “family values”

Too many students are convinced by their own universities, by some of their teachers and professors, and by the AI companies themselves that ‘using ai to study is getting ahead of the game’ But the process they seek to get ahead of is the point.

Happy St. Patrick's Day, New York.

oh wow maybe we shouldn't have put all our money in a kiln and set it to 4500 degrees

And yet Congress, including many if not most Democrats, is going to race to vote $50 billion to pay for more war crimes instead of healthcare for struggling families. Apparently to be "electable" in America you have to be an accessory to mass murder. I am so disgusted right now

When Trinity Rodman is 2 feet away from you 😮

For Israel & the U.S. to go to war during Ramadan is also a message.

Hilary Knight got the question re: that phone call and the laughter at the Torrent presser. Her answer:

They won't start with banning birth control. First they'll lie about it. Then dictate who can prescribe it, use it, fund it, in what forms, and for how long. Suddenly, your doctor won't call you back. I know this is what they'll do because it's what they're doing to transgender healthcare right now.

Since we can now gift article links, figured it was the perfect excuse to reheat this tonight. 🔓 @theathletic.com www.nytimes.com/athletic/333...

Former Israeli Defense Minister Moshe Ya’alon says the “ideology of ‘Jewish supremacy’” has become dominant in Israel, and it “is reminiscent of the Nazi race theory.” mondoweiss.net/2026/02/form... #Palestine #Israel
