I don't think it's a coincidence that all of this (worldwide) is happening when most of the people who lived through WWII have just died. We need to do a better job of keeping their memories and ideals alive.

I think about this, also in terms of vaccines, and really struggle with how you have a free society that doesn’t fall into this trap in one way or another. solved problems become invisible and the solutions become the source of conspiracy theories.
This seems logical but Dems solved* the whole problem of old-age health care costs in the mid-1960s and then they lost five of the next six presidential elections because by 1968 it was a solved problem and no one cared about it.

*Yes oversimplifying here and the rest of course.
i will amend my earlier tweet. whichever party solves the prices of housing *and child care* will rule america for a generation

If you want the conference to go to bat for you, join the damn conference.

But no, you wanted to keep your special snowflake status and thought the ACC was so pathetic that you agreeing to play field hockey against Pitt would be enough to get them to kiss your ass in perpetuity.
Notre Dame AD Pete Bevacqua to DP Show on the ACC: "We were mystified by the actions of the conference to attack their biggest partner really in football...They have certainly done permanent damage to the relationship between the conference and Notre Dame."

Striker (94 World Cup) was OK, there was kind of a Yogi Bear quality to him.

This one looks like he was at January 6th.
It's funny how we love dogs and we love mascots, and yet whenever there's an anthropomorphic dog mascot, it never hits right. Teams should take a page out of UGA and Washington and just have an actual, living dog for its mascot instead.

People will die, and are currently dying, because RFK was granted one of the most powerful megaphones in the country. Two people who could have thrown barriers in front of his climb decided not to; there's a sex scandal here but it is not the biggest scandal.

The destruction of the federal government disproportionately affects black women. The federal civil service has long been a good career option because of the strong equal opportunity enforced in the civil service that has historically blunted the double discrimination that black women face.
Since February, according to my latest analysis, almost 600,000 Black women have been economically sidelined. The November 20, 2025, Jobs Report makes clear this isn’t a blip. It’s a structural crisis. That is not a recovery. It is a redistribution of opportunity.

This isn’t a blip. It’s a structural crisis. And it's not a recovery, it's a redistribution of opportunity.

OGs remember the traveling support for the 1998 Scotland friendly in DC literally drinking a major bar near the arena dry. They had to close early
thinking on it and they could genuinely land Philly or Mexico City in the draw

I'd go to either just for those experiences, game ticket be damned

Started watching at 2-0 and happy with the USMNT score too…

…but we need to pump the brakes a bit. Like all Leeds fans, I know what Bielsa sides look like. They run and press doggedly even when they suck.

This URU team isn’t doing that. 3rd goal was laughably low effort. It’s practice for them.

The last month of the anti-Mamdani campaign was an absolutely shameful undertaking, an attempt to rip the city and Democratic coalition apart and I'm very happy to see it failed.

I have approximately zero following on this app, sharing in the hopes it can get in front of the right person. A man I went to college with’s wife was kidnapped by ICE at a green card hearing, and he’s trying to find a reporter who will speak to him about the situation

according to an immigration attorney representing several arrested workers, ICE agents chose to arrest the Korean workers to fulfill the quota of 3,000 daily immigrant arrests set by Stephen Miller www.forbes.com/sites/stuart...
Stephen Miller’s Quota Likely Drove Korean Arrests In Immigration Raid
When ICE agents arrested over 300 Korean workers at a Georgia battery plant, a daily immigrant arrest quota was likely on their minds.

For the 8th straight year, DC United enters the first year of a three-year rebuild
“As part of a comprehensive review of the club’s soccer operations, D.C. United has decided to move forward with a new approach. A new leader will be announced in the future.”

Don’t be surprised if Coach René Weiler takes over; he had a similar job at Servette last season.
