In a world where journalism is collapsing, Sounder At Heart is launching its first print magazine this week. That's right, local sports journalism you can hold in your hand. I've got a column in there about World Cup logistics. Click the link for your copy.

For those of you who grew up after 9/11, we got along just fine without a Department of Homeland Security for 212 years.

The DHS was formed to try to prevent future terror attacks — now, it is orchestrating them.
Never reactivate it.

Fuck yeah.
US Olympic Curling Team member speaks out against ICE:

"I'm proud to represent Team USA. But we'd be remiss if we didn't mention what's going on in Minnesota and what a tough time it's been. What's happening is wrong. There's no shades of gray."

This makes no sense. People need to stop assuming there’s a huge genius strategy behind this. It’s effectively obeying in advance, it empowers evil people with intelligence and guile they lack. They’re doing this because number went up. GPUs are not helpful in that way.
Aren’t they just going to end up being subsumed into the colossal digital Stasi that MAGA are building to control their entire population 24/7? Won’t that be their primary use?

If reading these letters doesn’t fill you with a deep and urgent need to burn these concentration camps to the ground after releasing their prisoners, you would’ve been on the wrong side in WWII.
1/ ProPublica collected handwritten letters in mid-January from children held at the Dilley Immigration Processing Center, the same facility where 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos was taken.

Hundreds of kids are still detained.

We’ll let the children’s words speak for themselves. 🧵

It's genuinely kind of funny that people were mad about Bad Bunny not singing in English when the first song Kid Rock played begins as so:
Bawitdaba, da-bang, da-bang, diggy-diggy-diggy / Said the boogie, said up drop the boogie / Bawitdaba, da-bang, da-bang, diggy-diggy-diggy / Said the boogie, sai

FWIW It’s *my* cultural inheritance and it’s a bad culture. It’s very humbling that so many peoples we’ve oppressed and mistreated for so long respond with anything other than visceral, outward hatred. Their graciousness and the power of their love for each other is deeply moving.

No one needs another white guy’s bad bunny opinions but whatever: If your reaction to a dude throwing a party celebrating his people and culture under a banner of peace and unity is to feel like *your* culture is under direct attack your culture probably sucks.

This is torture. The US is torturing children. Children whose words and whose art contain infinitely more humanity than the people keeping them detained.
