Ceez

Normal People Don’t Want This Shit is running away with the vote tonight

View from about midfield and close to the pitch (nice seats!) at an Olimpico Ljubljana vs Bravo "Big Bang" match; hot Prva Liga action on a beautiful Slovenian evening. Olimpico has possession and is driving the ball into Bravo's goal end.

A view of the Bravo goal net about 34 minutes into the match. The net is absolutely covered in what appears to be toilet paper thrown by the ultra Olimpico supporters from the stands behind it; the rolls gracefully unfurling as they arc softly over the net. The Bravo goalkeeper can barely be seen behind a curtain of white loo roll.

We crab sometimes about flares but have you ever had your goal end covered in loo roll? Hilarious ultra action at today's Olimpico Ljubljana match

Please everyone take a break from *gestures around* and enjoy this cute-ass fish

100,000 Dead: What We Know About Gaza's True Death Toll The death toll in Gaza, as reported by the Palestinian Health Ministry, understates the true scale of the crisis, researchers say. Hunger, disease, and Israeli gunfire at food distribution centers have made the war in the Strip one of the bloodiest of the 21st century

This story from @nirhasson.bsky.social demonstrates not only the scale of the carnage (at least 4% of Gaza's population) but the truly unprecedented targeting of civilians. Women and children account for 56% of those killed - more than twice their share in Sudan, Syria and Iraq.

In the words of Nelson Mandela: it always seems impossible until it’s done.

My friends, it is done. And you are the ones who did it.

I am honored to be your Democratic nominee for the Mayor of New York City.

Lilium canadense (Canada lily), a tall stem with whorls of green leaves and three gracefully drooping six-petaled red and orange flowers, their petals curling upwards to show their speckled interior.

Coreopsis verticillata (threadleaf coreopsis), a jauntily thick mound of feathery green leaves with soft yellow flowers sprinkled on top.

Penstemon digitalis (foxglove beardtongue), tall stalks emerging from mounded leaf rosettes with sprays of white trumpet-shaped flowers.

Coreopsis lanceolata (Lance leaf coreopsis), clusters of long lanceolate green leaves with jumbles of broad yellow flowers.

A small backyard garden surrounded by a tan wood privacy fence, with a stone and gravel path winding through the center of several large beds of native Ohio plants, some of which are blooming or preparing to bloom.

Liatris spicata (prairie blazing star), with stalks covered in small feathery purple flowers.

Asclepias tuberosa (butterfly milkweed), with clusters of small brilliant orange flowers.

Phlox divaricata (woodland phlox), with delicate five-petaled pink flowers peeking out from under a fern frond.

My native garden is riding out the heat wave so far!

"We are devastated and heartbroken at the loss of our parents, Melissa and Mark. They were the bright lights at the center of our lives, and we can't believe they are gone. Their love for us was boundless. We miss them so much. "We want everyone to know that we are both safe and with loved ones. We are grateful for the outpouring of love and support we have received, and we appreciate your respect for our family's privacy as we grieve. "Our family would like to thank law enforcement for their swift action that saved others and for the coordination across communities that led to the arrest of the man who murdered our parents. We especially would like to thank the officers who were first on the scene to our parents' home and their heroic attempts to rescue our mom and dad. "Our parents touched so many lives, and they leave behind an incredible legacy of dedication to their community that will live on in us, their friends, their colleagues and co-workers, and every single person who knew and loved them. "If you would like to honor the memory of Mark and Melissa, please consider the following: • Plant a tree. • Visit a local park and make use of their amenities, especially a bike trail. • Pet a dog. A golden retriever is ideal, but any will do. • Tell your loved ones a cheesy dad joke and laugh about it. • Bake something — bread for Mark or a cake for Melissa, and share it with someone. • Try a new hobby and enjoy learning something. • Stand up for what you believe in, especially if that thing is justice and peace. "Hope and resilience are the enemy of fear. Our parents lived their lives with immense dedication to their fellow humans. This tragedy must become a moment for us to come together. Hold your loved ones a little closer. Love your neighbors. Treat each other with kindness and respect. The best way to honor our parents' memory is to do something, whether big or small, to make our community just a little better for someone else."

Please read and share this statement from Sophie and Colin Hortman, children of Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband Mark.

Mike Was In The Amazon With My Mom When She Was Researching Toilets Right Before She Died

They’ve bombed abortion clinics, killed doctors, sentenced women to death over unwanted pregnancies, killed trans and queer people for asking for rights. There’s literally no kind of political violence that I’ve not seen come from the right in this country, and it’s never engaged with seriously.

Melissa Hortman, who was assassinated last night, was the Speaker of the Minnesota House in the 2023-2024 session, when Democrats ran the state government.

That means she had a leading role in shepherding the many landmark reforms that Dems adopted in that period—an important legacy. Brief 🧵.

“If this was done by another country, we absolutely would call this corruption,” said Kristofer Harrison, a former high-level State Department official in the George W. Bush administration. “Because it is corruption.”

A screenshot of an X post with a photo of Michael Keane and a list of Premier League players' shooting success rates. Keane tops the list at 30%, above (in order) Isak, Salah, Mbeumo, Mateta, Wood, Wissa, Haaland, Watkins, and Cunha. The caption reads "Premier League shooting success rates this season." Those who know Michael Keane understand why this is unhinged.

The cheek of this stat is fantastic. Mate woke up and chose violence

I don't care which team it is, that wasn't an intentional handball and good on Darren England for standing by his original decision. VAR trying to set bad precedent, putting unreasonable and unsafe expectations on players to play the whole game with their hands behind their backs! #FULEVE #Everton

When Kittens Came to My Prison, I Had Not Petted One in 15 Years I had not touched a cat in 15 years when an orange kitten wandered over to sit with me in the grass.

"Perhaps prison would have persisted this way forever. Perhaps our granite hearts and iron wills would have never crumbled. Perhaps the prison mentality, that we be cold and heartless, would have endured.

Perhaps. But then there were kittens."

The El Salvador story is less about Abrego Garcia himself than about the right to due process.

The assault on Harvard is less about the school itself (there are and will be others) but attempted federal control of private universities. 1/

Rory McIlroy secures career grand slam after dramatic Masters playoff win over Justin Rose * Northern Irishman shot 73 before playoff * Secures first major since 2014 PGA Championship Rory McIlroy, Masters champion. Four words that belie what this remarkable Northern Irishman achieved on a spine-tingling afternoon at Augusta National. They ignore, too, the torturous process he endured to realise this lifetime goal. Did he win the 85th Masters the hard way? Too right he did. From a seemingly untouchable position, McIlroy was dragged back into a scrap he was so desperate to avoid. He emerged from it on the first extra hole, where the unlikely adversary of Justin Rose was nudged aside. Rory McIlroy, Masters champion. Continue reading...

He eventually flew north down E. 13th towards the nearby lakefront, so I think he'll be ok. Maybe he'll find a lady friend at the lakefront preserve.

This particular fella was flashing his butt feathers, launching into the air and peent-ing his way into their very unique and cool mating display. Lost and horny in the city, who amongst us.

Woodcocks are not uncommon in the greater Cleveland area, but they're typically found in forests and not in the theater district.
