Watching Tobin Heath’s retirement ceremony has me 😢. My fave player. #SheBelieves

We Have Always Been At War With Eastasia

Pretty much sums it up.

I’d add “greed” into that last phrase, though.

i hope someone at Microsoft realises how badly they fucked up when regular people are actually considering switching to Linux, the family of chores operating systems

Spanish PM Sánchez responds to Trump:

"Spain is against this disaster... Govts are here to improve people's lives... It is absolutely unacceptable that those leaders who are unable to fulfill that mission use the smoke of war to hide their failure, and in the process, fill the pockets of a few."

If FIFA had a spine—which we know it does not—it would move all World Cup games to Canada and Mexico.

We don’t deserve to host them, and foreign players and fans do not deserve to be subjected to threats from Miller’s CBP and ICE thugs.

If I see one more person who can't hold "Khameini was bad for Iranians" and "the US and Israel are worse for Iranians" in their mind at the same, I SWEAR TO GOD

"...you might as well go full Mussolini and invade some random-ass country on a whole other continent. We saw how that ended up for ol’ Benito. And while I offer no predictions about Trump’s ultimate fate, I would encourage him to keep his feet presentable for when he is hung upside down by them.”

Additionally, I want to speak directly to Iranian New Yorkers: you are part of the fabric of this city — you are our neighbors, small business owners, students, artists, workers, and community leaders. You will be safe here.

Yes.

Congressman Thomas Massie and Congressman Ro Khanna will move to force a Congressional vote to block President Trump’s strikes on Iran.

Americans? Please call your reps.

CBS, Fox, the Washington Post, and Twitter are all owned by Trump-loving billionaires and soon CNN will be too. Here's why American media has a liberal bias problem.

I cackled.

People are always like what’s something you miss from the past and one of mine is antitrust laws

Rep. Al Green holds up a sign saying "Black People Aren't Apes" in respnse to Trump posting a video on Truth Social depicting Barack and Michelle Obama as apes. This comes a year after Green was ejected for interrupting Trump's joint address.

‘Don’t go to the US – not with Trump in charge’: the UK tourist with a valid visa detained by ICE for six weeks Karen Newton was in America on the trip of a lifetime when she was shackled, transported and held for weeks on end. With tourism to the US under increasing strain, she says, ‘If it can happen to me, i...

Imagine taking a vacation abroad & being disappeared to a jail for 40+ days for no reason.

That’s what this Admin is doing to foreign tourists. It's outrageous & hurting our businesses. 

When will other nations start holding the Admin accountable for mistreating their citizens?

I don’t what to do with the fact that someone I cited is on love is blind… #AcademicSky

One of the things that personally drives me crazy in the U.S. is how youth sports/athletic activities went from a part of the public good (municipal leagues and fields! rec centers! public parks!) to a privatized, expensive, highly competitive, highly structured pursuit for wealthy kids’ résumés

Washington’s Corruption Has Created Another Humanitarian Crisis in Puerto Rico The island’s earthquakes are its latest man-made disaster.

If you didn’t catch the significance of the exploding transformers in Bad Bunny’s halftime show, I gotcha. Here’s one of a bunch of pieces I wrote from/on Puerto Rico about the crisis—and Trump’s role in it. slate.com/news-and-pol...

Can’t wait for someone(s) to do a full breakdown of the imagery, messaging, etc of that incredible (and incredibly political) halftime show.

Benito is a threat b/c he makes art so alluring and enjoyable you want to understand everything about it and then you end up learning about sugar and slavery and colonialism and the Taínos and Hawaii and then you probably have some thoughts of your own, and that's why art is powerful and dangerous

OK "god bless america" and then naming every country in the americas from south to north is absolute king shit

“God bless America”… and then naming every country in the continent. Fuck yeah.

the halftime show is a master class in joy as resistance

It's music video-level production (the camera work alone!), and yet somehow they're filming it live.

this is outstanding camera work
