Adoram associar pornografia e videogames à misoginia e violência, mas ninguém fala nada do futebol.

As a proper commemoration of #InternationalWomenDay the @royalsociety.org should start by kicking out their Fellow who makes money out of deepfake porn tool misogynistic AI trashcan (among many other dispicable actions) hiding behind "free speech" ... Then I will raise a glass with you all!

Você provavelmente se indignou com a notícia de que um desembargador do Ministério Público de Minas Gerais, Magid Neuf Láuar, absolveu um homem de 35 anos acusado de estuprar uma criança de 12, sob a justificativa de que a menor e o adulto “constituíram família”.

I know it's hard to imagine, but you can simultaneously want the Regime gone, want a free Kurdistan and a free Balochistan, and feel bad about multiple countries bombing Iran, and the fact that this is the price for any hope of Regime change. These are not contradictory opinions.

Vinícius has last word as Real Madrid wrap up victory over Benfica Vinícius Júnior ran to the corner and danced again, just as he had done in Lisbon a week ago, but this time there was celebration all around him. There was also relief. With eleven minutes left on a sometimes nervous night at the Santiago Bernabéu, he had been set free to run through, putting the ball past Anatoliy Trubin and Real Madrid into the last 16 of the Champions League. A 3-1 aggregate lead secured, a place in the next round too, he set off and shook his hips in front of the flag, fans released from their fears and applauding him as he did so. One-nil up from a first leg in Lisbon that had been overshadowed by allegations that the Brazilian had been racially abused by Benfica’s Gianluca Prestianni, Madrid had trailed by an early goal here and although they equalised swiftly, an uneasy night ensued in which they had not felt safe until then. In the end though, with Prestianni and José Mourinho absent and nowhere to be seen, an impressive performance from Benfica was not enough. Continue reading...
