Cincy gotta be the weakest 2 seed in MLS playoff history, right? Not even saying that to roast them, just genuinely pondering.

Twitter pays people based on engagement (views, retweets, comments, etc). It appears that many MAGA accounts are based abroad and they use AI technology to generate low-effort rage bait.
My guess is that this will get worse as AI tech improves. For instance, fake videos of minorities doing crime.

Noting the congressional pension is based on service time, it kicks in at 5 years and her retirement date - Jan. 5, 2026 - will be the first business day after she passes five years since her first swearing in. bsky.app/profile/heli...
Any idea why she's quitting then? Her statement isn't very coherent (big surprise), although it would make more sense as an explanation of just not running for re-election.

Sure, conservatives are in the middle of a gleeful orgy of corruption, kidnapping, rape, and murder, but the real problem is when liberals say it's bad.
Imagine looking around America in 2025 and thinking, "What we need less of is morality."

Ohio is failing on virtually every measure. And everyday Ohioans are paying the price.
Even the Ohio GOP admits it—problem is, they’ve been in charge the whole time.
Rather than doubling down on failure w Vivek and more of the same policies, time for a new direction.

From @karleighchardonnay.bsky.social at Outsports:
Jennifer Sey, who said the NWSL had “several males” has issued a $10,000 bounty to the next player to “speak out like Elizabeth Eddy.” An anonymous donor added $5000. Clay Travis said he’d double it.

He is digging around again -- not clear if its another book/or expanded paperback version. Was asking me all sorts of questions about why you hired Ken Starr. I told him I had no idea - I think he is doing some Trump-related digging too.
Anyway, for what its worth...

How many posts do you think there are on the Crew subreddit of people suggesting we sign Zimmerman (who will be 33 in May) as the solution to our CB problem?
A problem which only exists because we already have a 34 year old CB, who missed the whole season with an injury, and another that’s 31.

i think this is key. taking the deal would amount to taking the blame. it would turn a clear political victory into an unambiguous defeat.
If the Dems blink after all of this, for a deal that all but ensures no ACA subsidies in 2026 anyway, then what was the purpose of letting the shutdown go for 40 days in the first place?

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.
The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.
People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.
And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

Darlington scored one of the best goals I’ve ever watched live and here it is:
I'm much more of a "team goal" guy than an "individual banger" guy but this shit's stayed with me for 15 years.
Still my favorite thunderbastard in MLS history. Has a level of intentionality to it that few goals have ever matched.
What a player, what a career.
