Apropos of nothing

This is what it feels like when your younger sibling gets your car when you go off to college because freshman aren’t allowed to have one

Trinity Rodman’s contract saga will reveal the future that NWSL leadership want A day that ended with Washington Spirit fans zipping across the skies like meteors began, contrastingly, with frustration-induced eye rolls. The Athletic’s Tom Bogert broke news about the status of…

chat is it good that the league went on a media blitz to laud the salary cap after being asked about trinity rodman's contract

agreeing to make a terrible deal while your main opponent is quite literally being boo'd on live tv by an entire stadium of people is the kind of political instinct you'd normally only find in a 3 week old dead goldfish

The government seems to have three options here, only one of them healthy for our democracy. Comply, don’t comply, or employ legalistic noncompliance, invent a legal argument why they should be right and try to tie the court up in that rather than enforcing the order.

HAPPENING NOW: Judge McConnell is sharply rebuking the Trump administration for what he said was defying his order to make full SNAP payments by Nov. 5. He has ordered USDA to make the *full* payment to states by tomorrow.

Hi, tech company expert here, this actually isn’t funny, they only do this when they are in distress

On Thursday (10/23), as I was walking back to the office with my lunch I stopped to heckle a crowd of National Guard and federal agents. I was then tackled to the ground, slammed against a squad car, arrested and held in a cell for several hours.

Lily yohannes is actually so incredibly good, wow

I would like to not be a doomer, but I do not think this country will be put back on the rails by the ordinary constitutional processes, I do not think this administration has a vested interest in allowing the system to keep functioning, quite the opposite actually

Trump's mechanism to pay the troops during the shutdown is by far the most illegal budgetary action he's taken as POTUS, potentially setting the stage to break everything.

It's also needless because Congress would easily pass a troop pay bill if Johnson were willing to gavel in.

Long thread.

Donald Trump Truth Social Post: Chicago Mayor should be in jail for failing to protect Ice Officers! Governor Pritzker also.

I will not back down.

Trump is now calling for the arrest of elected representatives checking his power.

What else is left on the path to full-blown authoritarianism?

SOFIA CANTORE BACKHEEL GOAL ‼️

SCOOP — Part of the reason Disney/ABC may have rushed to sort things out with Kimmel is because tomorrow they have a planned price increase for Disney+ streaming, a Disney source tells me. With subscriptions hemorrhaging since last week, they couldn’t risk losing more users with this announcement.

shit ain’t over til it’s over

It is totally ridiculous that the Ballon d’or is exclusive to anyone playing outside Europe on the women’s side, it really isn’t that hard to follow all the major leagues. Also awards and award shows are kind of ridiculous it turns out

great news! you're not actually seeing karl rove, john yoo, and david frum criticize the administration's lawlessness more stridently than dem leadership. you, reader, were infected with rabies by a brown bat 36 hours ago and this is all just the virus working its way through your nervous system

SCOTUS: considering race as one factor in a college applicant's file is blatantly unconstitutional

ALSO SCOTUS: considering race as one factor in targeting whom to detain and deport is cool cool cool

#BREAKING: With no explanation (save for a solo concurrence by Justice Kavanaugh), #SCOTUS has frozen lower-court rulings that had enjoined allegedly suspicion-less arrests as part of "roving" immigration patrols in California.

Justice Sotomayor, joined by Justices Kagan and Jackson, dissents:

Ditto with Kate Faasse.

Words/phrases Democrats should never use:

* bipartisan
* my Republican friends
* real, valid, legitimate, serious, important (to describe issue raised by Republicans)
* yea (when voting on Republican bills)
* distraction (to describe bad thing Republicans did)
* woke (in derogatory sense)

things were better when the computer lived in its own specific room and you only went in there sometimes

Well I certainly did not anticipate the number 1 Tar Heels blowing the first game to unranked Tennessee. I could be totally off base but I don’t think this keeper is it, I think both of the goals have to do with her being so far off the line tonight.

Happy NCAA woso day to all who celebrate, and go Heels!

The lionesses cannot keep doing this witchcraft please

I always feel like it starts with the supporters and who they are, and that gives me hope it won’t end up like men’s soccer. I feel like we have the community and strength and take our interest elsewhere if what is being built is not new and better!

I just left the Everglades Immigrant Interment Camp. No, I’m not using their ridiculous name. It was a very tough to witness humans in those cages. Every Floridian should be ashamed that our taxpayer money is being used for this.

I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy.

I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.

The disparity btwn what’s actually happening in Los Angeles and the way it’s being mischaracterized is one of the biggest stress tests of modern media in recent memory. Botted socials, AI, old clips, declining literacy—it’s like seeing a broken emergency response system hit by a storm.
