Bournemouth would be ineligible to play division 1 soccer in the US b/c their stadium is too small. @ussoccer.com should relax their stadium size rules to match the Premier League.

I always shock my students a bit when I tell them that quantitative data is just qualitative data that has already been interpreted numerically.

I was at a punk show in 83 where a skinhead jumped up on stage and gave a Nazi salute. The bass player hit him with his bass, knocking him into the crowd and 150 people collectively hauled his ass out of the venue and threw him in the mud. This was the right and only appropriate response.

trillion dollar industry that will revolutionize everything

If this was really about government efficiency then we’d investigate highway widening projects before high speed rail & congestion pricing

The 2nd amendment crowd should probably be a little more concerned with what's happening to the 1st amendment. Once the 1st goes, the 2nd will not be far behind.

Truth Social lost over $400 million on $3.6 million in revenue in 2024. There are fast food franchises that had more revenue last year but its market cap is still almost $6B. Pure fraud; so many suckers in this country. stocks.apple.com/AlQsLOMlUQ6u...

Our first commercial of the election for Governor is on statewide - “Who Does That”

MTA to Feds: Drop dead

Man I really want whatever Hakeem Jeffries gig is because I know he's mad paid. Just stand up there & be like look, I can't do shit, I'm not gonna do shit. What, you suggest I do shit? Naw I don't feel like doing shit. And just like be able to be really well dressed with property off that.

If we need to deport undocumented immigrants b/c they don't pay taxes, does that mean we can deport billionaires too?

@notalexis.bsky.social big news! You did use nonplussed correctly. Or at least incorrectly in the same way that most Americans use it.

It’s MLS Season Pass day in T-Mobile’s T-Life app.

Is Elon Musk actually a government employee? Is he on the payroll? Has he signed any paperwork?

A big @provolleyball.bsky.social match on youtube now. Vegas Thrill vs Columbus Fury. www.youtube.com/live/zVmIZMC... Vegas is led by Olympian setter Alisha Glass Childress Columbus has Megan Courtney-Lush

Without going all Martin Niemöller here, I do think that it's bad not to speak up for immigrants, transgender Americans, civil servants, women, Ukraine, and everyone else the MAGA bullies are going after. We're beyond picking and choosing whom to defend. It's time to stand up and speak out.

The story of @thestorygraph.com is so inspiring. @nodunayo.bsky.social is a great role model for anyone trying to bootstrap a consumer app. www.theguardian.com/books/2025/f...

The US media spent the entire Biden presidency crying "recession" and it never happened. Now Trump & Elon come in mixing the "ez recession recipe" that they got from xAI and the media is like, "Let's see how it works out."

Notice they're getting rid of the rules that protect you from the banks, but they're not getting rid of the rules that protect the banks from you.

No need to parse dog whistles with the advocate for Germany’s neo-Nazi party, who laments the end of Apartheid in South Africa, does sig heils in public, denigrates minorities, and proclaims that white men are inherently superior. Yes, he is. We don’t need to ask anymore, we need to deal with it.

Proposal for the AP and other media outlets to call it the Gulf of ...

The plot of Die Hard 3 except instead of blowing up the Federal Reserve and bringing in all those dump trucks they just steal a laptop from one of those doge kids.

I honestly think Dems have to resist the urge to say "I told you so" and instead ask ourselves how we present an extremely compelling ideological alternative to MAGA/DODGE...not just for one cycle, but for the long term. That means addressing the decline of American Dream and wealth inequality.
