That was fun. The Sounders should do that more often. www.sounderatheart.com/2025/04/thre...

The #Sounders scored three goals in a 15-minute span in the first half to storm past Nashville SC 3-0 for their second straight win. sports.mynorthwest.com/mls/seattle-...

🧪Holy shit. The Covid.gov website directs to the WH website claiming that covid came from a lab leak. And they are blaming Anthony Fauci. And calling the NIH a failure. I am utterly speechless. Anti-science propaganda running its wheels in real time.

The Trump administration wanted to control the most basic aspects of the university, including what is taught and who is hired. The wanted to turn Harvard into a fancy version of Trump University. And when Harvard said no, Trump used publicly funded research as a hostage.

“In theory, the other institutions of government should put a swift end to this, but neither the Republican Supreme Court nor the Republican Congress want to pick up this fight, because they're all deeply terrified of an old man in clown makeup.”

No one should be above the law, most especially the President. Ignoring a Supreme Court ruling to facilitate Kilmar Abrego Garcia's return isn't just cruel; it's unconstitutional. They're saying the quiet part aloud — if they get away with it now, they'll do it to anyone.

If you think this can’t happen, remember that of the 125,000 Japanese Americans who were interned during WWII for years without charge or trial, two-thirds were U.S. citizens. Including me.

The best little sounders fan 💙💚 #ebfg willing us to a goal

So what country's lead can we follow on vaccines if not our own? www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...

Pete Hegseth must resign or be fired immediately.

Ballard FC nearly tied it up at the death with an equalizer but got called off-sides by the ref and the commentators imo captured the utter agony and heartbreak of that offsides. I feel for them, that is BRUTAL (but he probably was a step off 😬) #USOC

Your handy dandy link to tonight's U.S. Open Cup Round 1 match between Ballard FC (USL-2) & Spokane Velocity (USL-1). Kickoff is at 7:28pm. #USOC2025 www.youtube.com/watch?v=HJrk...

Scientists have just cured pancreatic cancer in some patients with personalized mRNA vaccines. Pancreatic cancer. And this Trump administration wants to throw it all away. They’re throwing away a cure for cancer.

Exclusive: NIH officials have advised scientists to remove reference to mRNA vaccines from their grant applications, in expectation the Trump administration intends to abandon most research in the field. By @arthurallen202.bsky.social kffhealthnews.org/news/article...

folks, if they deported people during the break in the hearing about deporting exactly these people, we’re in completely lawless territory. if the government can engage in irreparable harm while the judge is hearing argument, there’s no real process left.

Crazy how Republicans are constantly parroting this

Watching Jurassic Park, where a computer nerd with a debt problem and delusions of grandeur tears down all the safety systems, with no understanding of the consequences, so he can better facilitate his planned espionage and theft.

I am pleasantly surprised by the color commentator for the sounders tonight. Seems like he's actually watched our matches and has intelligent things to say. #sounders #ebfg Come on boys get a point from this at least

Don't look away.

MUST-WATCH: This is the arrest of Mahmoud Khalil from the perspective of his wife, who is 8 months pregnant. This is federal agents in plain clothes dragging a man from his home as punishment for his speech. @nyclu.org @ccrjustice.org @theimeu.bsky.social

today's yelling at our senators done. thanked them for committing to no cloture, no on cr. told them both to wake up and recognize the incandescent rage of their constituents. remove schumer. fight harder. decorum time is over. fight for democracy or watch from the sidelines after you're voted out.

I bought a Tesla because it was fast like a rocket ship. But now every time I drive it, I feel like a rolling billboard for a man dismantling our government and hurting people. So Tesla, you’re fired! New ride coming soon.

KEEP CALLING. PEEL OFF ALL DEM SENATORS YOU CAN. ☎️: (202) 224-3121 Tell them to vote NO on Cloture and NO on CR. Vote is pushed to after 1:15ish for now. Situation is fluid. The only public YES votes are Schumer and Fetterman. They need 7-8 total. KEEP CALLING. Call retiring Senators too!

This is almost the entirety of JHUs funding. If this does not get EVERY. SINGLE. UNIVERSITY. off their asses and find a spine, I don’t know what will. They will not stop with Columbia and Maine and Hopkins. They are coming for all of higher education. We all need to respond. #GeneralStrike

Ten years ago if you had written a dystopian SF story in which the person in charge of U.S. public health did a press event at a fast food joint to say that fried food is good but measles vaccines cause measles the ghost of Philip K. Dick would have said that you were being too bleak and unrealistic

Today would be yet another good day for university presidents to loudly, collectively, & publicly start defending our institutions & industry. The silence is deafening & frankly, incomprehensible. What exactly are you waiting for? How many Columbias, Maines, & Johns Hopkins will it take?

What an absolute waste. Imagine how different this could have been if we put away one of those early chances? Now we just have to pray we don't get too buried in MLS and somehow guys heal for cwc. Absolutely depressing.
