this is a good time to remember that conservatives only ever want to be in more left leaning spaces to get reactions out of people, if enough people block them they’ll get bored and leave

It looks like “importance of UK/ US relationship” as the maximum extent of the hand-wringing we’re going to get before we help America’s obviously deranged President and his murderous fascist allies devastate yet another country, in a war that the latter deliberately started.

oh my god

Wall-to-wall terrible news day already, oof

NEW statement from NYC Councilwoman Shahana Hanif (@shahanafrombk.bsky.social) on Brad Lander's arrest:

The Los Angeles Press Club has collected dozens of examples of journalists harmed or wrongly made to leave the scene while reporting on protests this month. archive.org/details/gov.... Adam Rose, chair of the Press Rights Committee, explains why they've sued. spectrumnews1.com/ca/southern-...

The good thing about generative AI is that it’s finally going to give us a real and concrete “I feel like the creative output from x period in the past was better” where we can all just nod and agree

i just find this so bizarre. searching through texts and doing the reading for myself is how i actually think through ideas! trying to put together a sentence is how i figure out what i actually want to say!

Things older than ICE: - Super Mario Sunshine - Wilco’s Yankee Hotel Foxtrot - Pixar’s first four features - Blink-182’s Take Off Your Pants and Jacket - Luigi’s Mansion - The Postal Service’s Give Up - Pitchfork dot com - Addison Rae - Kingdom Hearts - Every Pavement album

What’s great about the DAZN service is you get to sit through two minutes of ads to see if it’s going to play the event that you’ve clicked on that’s currently live or if it’s going to cut to the prematch panel with no way to jump to real time. Mates I just want to get on a treadmill here

Very interesting how Germany’s support of the overthrow of Iran’s regime is more vocal when it involves foreign bombs than when it involves non-violent protest by the Iranian people.

Alt text that doesn’t convey the relevant information in the photograph is useless alt text (and probably more insulting than no alt text at all).

Prayers up for the blood clots, horrible environment they’re in

If you've never seen the 7up series, they're all on youtube, and it really is brilliant. Following a bunch of kids from different backgrounds, starting aged 7 in 1964, until, most recently, 2019.

Yesterday I saw a video where a girl was complaining about FIFA’s lack of care for American fans of the sport before going on to complain that the schedule was anti-social to Americans bc there was a 3PM weekday game in the group stages and…girl.

Just clocked that the Club World Cup is gonna do wild things to season stats by adding so many more games for players to accrue G/A in lmao Mohamed Salah must be lowkey fuming on a beach taking thirst traps

I hope Andy Robertson doesn’t go in part because I think he’s a better player in that position, in part bc experience is useful, and in part because I am simply not ready — and because fuck me if anyone deserves a goodbye in front of a full crowd, he’s one of them for us

Stop asking girls to name five songs by the band on their shirt BUT 👏🏻 start 👏🏻 asking 👏🏻 Inter 👏🏻 Miami 👏🏻 Messi 👏🏻 shirt 👏🏻 wearers 👏🏻 to 👏🏻 name 👏🏻 five 👏🏻 starters 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻

World Cup and Olympics organizers texting each other furiously, wondering how they break the contract.

the moral case for the club world cup is about clubs like al ahly
