🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 if I was born during this time I would be turning up…🤣🤣🤣

This seems like common sense, yet so many don't get it. Anything to have their racist, bigoted, King Nothing leading the Stupids.

If she can continue to strike the ball as well as she has this tournament, especially on return, the next-gen star could well have Zheng on the ropes in the French capital. 🎾 #tennis #RolandGarros www.sportskeeda.com/tennis/who-o...

Good news, the president’s cabinet should have told him the same thing 4 months ago.

I have been meaning to write about this for quite some time and maybe I'll get to it next year, but between this and Peterson's meltdown on Jubilee, I hope folks can see that it's not all that difficult to humiliate these people in forums like this. Maybe there's political value in doing so.

By god, the wokes have developed a time machine too.

Yup.

And that’s a friendly reminder to NOT BUY any American food from Trumpster’s dumpster. He’s gutted the Food Safety Regulations and it’s just not safe to consume. Americans beware!

Victoria Mboko impresses for so many reasons. Her clean strikes, effective slice and controlled aggression. Its this last point that's critical to the success of any Tennis player. To have such a well rounded game so young is rare. Good match with Lys who put up a big fight

Get in there Vicki! 🎾

Pretty wild to be living in a time when humans are being forced to work in order to even be considered deserving of life or even to be considered human at all, while simultaneously human labor is being systematically eliminated from the concept of work.

Amanda on a Mission Last year, Amanda Anisimova had to use a protected ranking to get into Roland-Garros. This year, she's the #16 seed. A runner-up in Toronto last summer and a winner in Doha in February, the American is playing her best tennis ever, routing Viktorija Golubic, 6-0, 6-2.

Not every letter to the editor we share is about Brexit. Here's an excellent one from the Economist.

Canada’s response - we’ll launch ourselves into the Sun first.

I really have to question the long term planning of Dem politicians who go to a platform like substack after watching what happened to Twitter. Ethics aside, it just doesn't strike me as a sound strategy to try to build that way!

Privatisation in a nutshell: Steal from us something we own. Sell us back an inferior service at a higher price. The pattern is the same everywhere: water, railways, the NHS, public services, council services… @mrjamesob.bsky.social

Welcome to the Top 100! Victoria Mboko just keeps hitting major milestones. After qualifying into the main draw in her grand slam debut, the Canadian phenom defeats Eva Lys, 6-4, 6-4, to reach the 3rd round. With the win, Mboko locks up a top 100 debut, already up to #89 in the live rankings. 🙌

Govt gives things we own - water, railways and so on - to their friends. Their friends sell us these things back at inflated prices, making huge profits, which go to tax havens, returning no tax for funding public services such as NHS. Privatisation. What's not to like? @mrjamesob.bsky.social

[16] Anisimova trashes out #78 Golubic 6-0, 6-2 in 56 minutes. It's a Serena/ Clijsters/ Sharapova style of destruction in the first week of a Slam.
