Liverpool have lost five Premier League games thanks to 90th minute goals this season, the most ever by a team in a single campaign.

A miserable night for the Reds but a brilliant one for Wolves.

What a shoddy display! Better beat them on Friday. 🤦🏻‍♂️

I feel like if democrats spent this year messaging “Donald Trump sent your kids to die so his family could buy another golden toilet” we might get impeachment going.

Republicans come in three categories:

PEDOPHILE - more and more are qualifying daily under this category

PEDOPHILE FRIENDLY - those who actively cover for Pedophiles

PEDOPHILE ENABLER - those who still support and offer aid and comfort to pedophiles

I'm late Gen X and all I'm saying is Millennials got fucked harder than anyone else. They were raised on post 9/11 American media and government and it's just been an endless stream of shit. And I'm not even talking about the 09 collapse. The wars, watching guns shred schools, social media insanity

• ~3–4M Afghans are estimated to be in Iran
• Afghanistan already has ~6M+ internally displaced people
• Gulf states host ~30M+ migrant workers

If multiple fronts destabilize at once, even small % moving becomes major regional migration event.

If America still had the rule of law, this would be the easiest prosecution ever, but we all know absolutely nothing will happen.

Trump: "This is the Golden Age of America."

I literally snorted out loud. The CEO's office is right nearby. Oops.

"My fellow Americans, when I last spoke to this chamber twelve months ago, I had inherited a country that was on the brink of economic collapse under the weight of all the jobs it kept adding."

the State of the Union is— oh who gives a fuck, really was anyone surprised by any of this?

Why the longest-ever State of the Union address was the most inconsequential Amid Trump’s lies and xenophobic rants, people struggling to pay bills and make ends meet are unlikely to be moved

Chimpanzees have culture. Do they also have cultural heritage worthy of protection? @simonfitzpatrick.bsky.social and I argue they do in our new paper, because their cultural practices create value.

Note how Schank also takes credit for his former PhD student's brilliance, saying "she failed to be brilliant when I made her leave Yale; she needed a man in order to be smart; they all do."
