This feels like a good time to note that, indeed, USWNT is the winningest team in international sports history (win percentage: 84) the18.com/en/soccer-en...

I really enjoyed soccer and quit after they forced us to go travel or stop playing at 14. It was both expensive and less fun. Youth sports should be fun.

eating real food tonight 🍽️

finally got my health insurance card, so calling those people back about an adhd evaluation immediately because otherwise i’d forget

This is why I don't do many fabric projects. I'm perfectly safe around power tools, but these fabric cutters are dangerous

apparently AI has learned to name files like we do. this prompted by me looking at a file called "[DOCUMENT]_updated_v2_final_merged_prioritized" that I know was someone using the AI to reorganize a list of tasks

Switzerland bolted 5,000 solar panels onto a dam wall 8,000 feet up in the freezing Alps where everyone said solar made no sense, and the plant now makes three times more winter power than any farm down in the valleys ☀️

Police don't prevent anything. Don't waste my money.

I'm very open about the fact that I'm a person who thought Heated Rivalry needed more hockey, but I have no idea why the industry has responded this way.

Muttering "if you don't build expensive apartments, the people who would live in them will just rent/buy your mediocre apt for more than you can afford and consider it a deal" to myself while learning how much my neighbors are paying for rent.

i wear pretty standard size shoes (my dad an i are the same size), but if you have smaller feet, this may be of interest

let’s fucking go

We all know this is bullshit but I can confirm Christian Lebanese folks want the Israelis out as much as anybody else. Not to mention Christian Palestinians also live under apartheid in Israel and occupied Palestine.

this is incredible and i love it

tremendous the supreme court rules 6-3 energy

people who buy 4 door wranglers think they’re jeep people but the reality is they couldn’t commit to the lifestyle

just blocked an account with an AI slop pfp that appeared to post only scientific studies and had a bio that gave me transphobia vibes. like what even was that

About the US constitution. I only learned today that a lot of people in the US don't know that the US constitution cribbed heavily from the Haudenosaunee (Iroquois) Confederacy? Is this a thing that only those of us who grew up in Haudenosaunee lands learned?

"The United Kingdom is a voluntary association of four nations" says a British politician in Belfast without a hint of irony.

You EXCOMMUNICATE Miette like the heretic? Oh! Oh! Jail for Mother Church! Jail for Ten Thousand Years!

The security guard at the door:

This is so fucking funny

the real reason they're evacuating people in DC right now

I was at Riverside Park today and I took the funniest photo of that B2. It looks like the sky is missing some ceiling tiles.

just thinking about how the end of Númenor and its mad king is foretold by massive storms and overall bad weather

i mean this is kind of incredible

The America Wong Kim Ark and Mitsuye Endo and Fred Korematsu and Homer Plessy and James Obergefell and Becky Pepper Jackson went to SCOTUS for - whether SCOTUS got it right or not.

To that last part, especially - exactly! This is my version of what not ceding patriotism, the American Dream, and America itself to the right looks like. “We are a nation of laws” rather than “law and order.” Thomas Paine and Frederick Douglas and Sojourner Truth not just Jefferson and Lee.

this whole thread is good

FUCK

Best friend’s aunt has a pittie. She’s obviously the most vicious and scary dog

i thought, end of day yesterday, that maybe i’d gotten a minor sunburned on the drive, but by today it seemed gone so I think i just narrowly avoided. that’s a genetics win because I totally just pushed the limits of the spf 15 with a 2-plus hour drive

niblings love the water (no picture of the oldest because i couldn’t get one with his face obscured)

celebrating independence day today like a real american by eating french bread, belgian waffles, italian ices, canadian bacon, chinese dumplings, korean bbq, swiss chard, russian dressing, & swedish meatballs, then capping it all off by shooting fireworks made in china 🇺🇸usa 🇺🇸 usa 🇺🇸

🕯️ 🕯️ 🕯️ The thing 🕯️ 🕯️ happening 🕯️ 🕯️mid-July 4th 🕯️ 🕯️ speech 🕯️ 🕯️ 🕯️

"This Whole Thing Smacks Of Gondor," i holler as i overturn my uncle's funeral pyre and turn the 4th Age of Man into the 4th Age of Shit

honestly #15 should kill qualified immunity

The Declaration of Independence specifies 27 grievances with King George III and Britain. Donald Trump and his regime have committed at least 20 of those same offenses highlighted in yellow. Happy 250, America!

Welcome to earth!

💯💯💯

Oh are we talking about the ways the groundswell of transphobia has harmed us? Sure, let's do this. A depressing thread by me, a trans southerner in exile.

This is, I believe, the connoisseur's 4th of July dril tweet

important to revisit the words of the Founding Fathers on this day

Vance believes in nothing other than obtaining power for himself and enforcing his will on the public.

He would become the greatest man cancelled for typing "hey" in every single womans DM's the website has ever seen

my dream is all the dust up means they decide to reshoot scenes and make him achilles just to make folks mad

Thomas Paine is my favorite founding father. He was famously abolitionist and one of the earliest voices to point out the hypocrisy of fighting for independence while keeping slaves. He also firmly believed that keeping any friendship which required compromising your morals made you a bad person.

This is literally the setup that allowed Jim Crow to be a decades long racist regime of apartheid while modern moderates lament the lost comity of the Senate. This is literally a politics of white reconciliation which we’ve already seen.
