Not electing this guy was like someone handing us a fishing pole at a stocked pond but instead we drove to the nearest bridge and jumped off.

The world feels crazy right now, but we won’t lose hope. We will get through this, together.

We were there a couple of weeks ago. 4A is very competitive this year. A lot of really tough teams.

Our crew was at Gilbert last night for 1st round playoffs vs CB Lewis Central. All black unis, full crowd, visitors traveled well, and a stadium playlist that I want to download. Friday Night Lights, baby.

Officiating isn't getting worse; technology advances have put them under an impossible microscope.

And FTR, the technology is good! But it has evolved much faster than the on-field humans, and its application is often used by cynics to criticize officials rathan than as a tool to improve the game.

Given the officiating in... seemingly every conference today, re-upping this story from the summer.

Is college football officiating getting worse? www.nytimes.com/athletic/643...

Does college football have an officiating problem?

The numbers say college officials are getting better, but the temperature around their highest-profile mistakes is only rising.

It feels forced for a lot of these schools. The only ones to pull it off without black as a school color are probably Oregon, and that's mainly because Autzen is a zoo.

it's not simple in any way (you need to emphasize the fight obviously) but the algorithmic incentive is to message in the bleakest ways and that tends only to serve the people who are trying to court the rage of others. and it is just lovely to see reminders that politics is about community

i guess whatever ends up happening i very much appreciate the way that so much of what comes out of this campaign offers a positive depiction of what politics can offer to a community instead of just grim attack stuff and fear

This country is in the hands of a tyrant.

The Washington Post @washingtonpost.com · 3d

Breaking news: President Trump says he will direct the Pentagon to begin testing nuclear weapons “on an equal basis” with Russia and China.

The announcement signals a reversal of decades of United States nuclear policy.

Trump announces plans to test nuclear weapons, just before meeting with China’s Xi

The president said he wanted testing to occur “on an equal basis” with Russia and China, raising the pressure on Beijing as he prepared to meet his Chinese counterpart.

Say what you will about his mental acuity; his intentions get clearer by the minute.

Aaron Rupar @atrupar.com · 3d

Q: What did you mean when you said you're prepared to send 'more than the National Guard' into American cities?

TRUMP: if I want to enact a certain act, I'd be allowed to do whatever I want. The courts wouldn't get involved. Nobody would. I could send Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines -anybody I want
