Duolingo just sent me a reminder with the hugging emoji and I’m not used to this kind of positive reinforcement from this source.

Getting philosophical …what’s fun about rooting for a team that’s hugely dominant? Are wins as exciting when they’re expected? And aren’t losses extra disappointing? Thx but I’m happy being a fan of the underdogs.

This game is chaos. #Browns-Steelers

I almost didn’t watch this game and I’m sure glad I did. Super fun! #Browns #snow

this is what the AFC north is all about, not a dome!

Snow is what makes AFC North football special. Domes are for the weak. 😂

Very interesting historical perspective on authoritarianism in these United States; worth reading and pinning.
One thing I think people talking about the threat of authoritarian creep have gotten, if not exactly wrong, not quite right either is to frame discussion in terms of various European precedents.

Those are relevant to be sure, but we also have an American precedent - namely the South before 1965.

politics hasn’t ended and hard things are hard. i am NOT saying that there are “guardrails” or that trump will be stopped by some other force. i am saying that everything can be a battle if his opponents choose to make it one.
