All referees are evil
tbh the fact that we are seeing these delusional "media hates Boston sports" takes means that bluesky has ascended to being the sports app
ESPN can never give credit to a Boston sports team

The National Science Foundation sign on our Eisenhower Av building is now gone.

The NSF mural in the foyer is removed and torn off in sheets.

We were supposed to celebrate the 75th anniversary of the agency in May 2025. That never happened.

“In that same court document, it is revealed that Epstein took the then 14-year-old to Mar-a-Lago in 1994, where she was introduced to Donald Trump. According to the files, Epstein elbowed Trump playfully asking him, "This is a good one, right?" with Trump smiling and nodding in agreement.”

The House passed legislation today that would charge doctors with a felony punishable by up to 10 years in prison for providing transition-related care to minors.

Rep. Sarah McBride strongly condemned the legislation in rare personal remarks ahead of the vote.

This is the logical conclusion of the “religious freedom” tide, highlighted by the Supreme Court’s recent decisions. Now, it doesn’t matter if you are objectively wrong—if someone tries to hold you to account, THEY are the ones at fault for impinging on your religious freedom
Absolute debasement of academic standards
*student submits opinion in psych class
*gets bad grade
*instructor says she can make whatever arguments she wants but must draw on empirical sources
*student & Turning Point says her religious freedom & first amendment rights violated
*professor suspended

Bill Cassidy has done infinitely more for the antivaccine movement than he can ever claim he has done to promote vaccination. He is one of the worst antivaxxers to ever live.
