When the Conservative Party in Korea declared martial law, the Korean Democrats knew if they didn’t send them to hell there would be no opposition afterwards. And look at them. They’re taking the ex conservative president and ensuring he never breathes free ever again.

This might sound crazy, but travel disruptions at Thanksgiving would have been … good? It would have driven home why we need a functional government. Dems could have capitalized. Instead, they worried more about disrupted travel than people getting thrown off their health insurance. Unbelievable.

You cannot separate the current nightmare we now inhabit from the collapse/crisis in how rich, powerful middle-aged men perceive masculinity, especially their own insecurities.
I’m sorry, but a goofy looking guy who grew up a privileged son of a pediatrician and has a phd in social theory from the university of Goethe and started in tech by investing an inheritance left to him by his grandfather talking about being a “dude” is very, very funny to me.

HOW IS IT EVEN POSSIBLE TO FUCK UP THIS BADLY
“People are blaming republicans for food prices and flight cancellations and health insurance costs and are furious about gilded ballrooms and Gatsby parties and the president is falling asleep on tv and is the most deeply unpopular president in history, time to cave” is a hell of an argument

A neo-Nazi rally outside the NSW parliament on Saturday morning was deemed "authorised" because police had chosen not to oppose the public assembly.

So Tim Davie has resigned from the BBC over a failure to be impartial in relation to Trump.
Once.
The BBC has failed to be impartial about trans people since Davie's tenure started.
Systematically and regularly.
So why did he not resign over these?

Okay, but I was told that's what a coach's job is. Yanez took it to PKs with far less talent and without DeMelo.
Vlatko states that not having Cooper and Chawinga and a half strength Bia makes it difficult to change the game plan.

Fifa showing FIFPro the finger by creating yet another of those pretend forums filled with "legends", bypassing the trade union which represents 65,000 professional players worldwide. FIFPro could bring the house of Gianni down if it put its mind to it. It won't.

There is an old joke about a teacher asking, "What did Watson & Crick discover?" & a voice from the back of class muttering, "Rosalind Franklin's notes."
🧪
This is the seminal paper written by Watson & Crick outlining the structure of DNA.
Rosalind Franklin should have been co-author on this publication.
She was just given a meager acknowledgement.
