Arsenal fan. Anti-zealots of all stripes. Getting run over in both directions in the middle of the road. Science is the way, whether you like the outcome or not.

All I'm learning from these VAR reviews is that PGMOL absolutely considers awarding Arsenal a penalty as a clear and obvious error.

For the first time since 2014 there are no living Israeli hostages in Gaza.
A weight is lifted. The joy of seeing families reunited is palpable. All of Israel celebrated the moment that no living hostage remained in Gaza. 🥹

Also: if you work for ICE, even if you’re not one of the ones arresting citizens or tackling 15-year-olds or zip-tying kids together and segregating them by race, you’re part of the mechanism making it happen, and you should suffer long-term social and post-regime-change consequences.
Some weirdo on Twitter has been absolutely melting down for like 36 straight hours because I posted:
When this is over, do not forget what ICE did, and what ICE is. And do not make room for them in society. Make sure they know that they are, and will continue to be, reviled and beneath contempt.

This really makes it sound like a Border Patrol agent tried to kill an anti-ICE activist in Chicago and DHS lied to cover for him
Body-camera video appears to contradict the government’s claim that Marimar Martinez, 30, drove toward officers before one of them opened fire at her late Saturday morning in Brighton Park, her attorney claimed.

This must be a good sign as Hamas has been ignoring the interest of the Palestinian people since October 7. This offer must be right up their alley.

What I am really most curious about with Tom Homan: did he keep the $50,000, did he claim it on his taxes, and what do the tax authorities in New York have to look into today that they did not yesterday because of @carolleonnig.bsky.social's reporting?
