Rachel Maddow had a great opening to her show last night. She showed in Bulguria massive protests lead to it's government to resign.
That's is what needs to happen here. Yes, we had 15 million people show up for the second No Kings. But, we need numbers like 100 million+.

The #TheOdyssey trailer is...disappointing.
Too dark. A complete lack of color. Even the use of 70mm film feels dated at this point.
I'm definitely in the minority, but this might be the Nolan film I'm looking forward to the least.
Ben Hur had a more enticing palette.

Truly the only way we as a collective hurt these fuckers is by not giving them our money. Cancel all subs to their services. We saw Disney flip on a dime after Kimmel fiasco.

Since I’m getting “what did I miss” from alot, Paramount Plus, owner of CBS spiked the El Salvador CECOT prison story yesterday on 60 minutes because it made the White House look bad. Cancel paramount plus

Never played it but have had it on my list for a while now. I've read the story and watched the documentary of production. This was the right choice and a deserved win. Congratulations! I promise I will play the game soon once my backlog is more manageable 😅 @sandfallgames.bsky.social

FIFA is a joke. It is supposed to represent players and fans of the beautiful game, but it is corrupt organization run by a Trump sycophant. The World Cup should bring together the world in joy and celebration. Instead, FIFA is going out of its way to worship at the alter of authoritarianism.

Oh bloody hell. Just when you think FIFA can't sink any lower, or become more incompetent, they actually found a way to ruin the draw itself. At least I have something practical to discuss in January in my FIFA World Cup history course (politics & sports)

Encouraging folks who are against fascism and corruption in sports to boycott or not watch the #WorldCup2026 here in America. I know its the world sport, but not if it costs the lives of others. As much as I love football, I won't be watching next year.

I'll take scrappy wins over what probably should have been a draw any day of the week.

Feels apt that as our political and cultural world continues to crumble, my interest in cyberpunk and William Gibson raises exponentially. Necromancer is becoming oddly prophetic, if not a few dozen years behind schedule...

Ouch. That one was probably our worst performance of the season so far. I get the need for rotation and trying new ideas. Probably not want to do those next time!
Savinho...I'm sorry bruv. I don't think I've ever seen a City player lose possession with no one around them. Time to move on...

Disappointed with the loss. Despite another questionable referee, City did not show up to win this match. Missed chances and poor performances all around. Lucky to get the goal. Better luck next week, lads.

The fat cats in the NBA and the WNBA have more than enough capital to not only pay the players fairly, but expand their marketing efforts so that they can get more eyes on them. Watching women's sports is equally as fun as mens, in my opinion. No good reason to not do this.
For @msmagazine.com, I wrote about the WNBA and the issue of pay equity. By the time the WNBA was only two seasons in (1999-2000) the average NBA salary was 58 times higher than the average WNBA salary. Twenty-six years later, the gap has jumped to 116 times higher.

ICEstapo detained 81 people in Charlotte, NC yesterday.
The internet is littered with videos of them using excessive force and ignoring legal documentation provided by the detainees.
Here’s my advice for ICEstapo:
Take a night off.
Go to the movies.
Watch “Nuremberg”.
Your time is coming.
