It’s still too hot in Texas, so ready for scary movie season

Suarez is a terrible person. Worse yet, I expect @mls.bsky.social will do nothing because they’re spineless.
You’ll notice he steps on Gene’s foot so he can’t step away. Again, one of the most despicable and disgusting things I’ve ever seen happen on a soccer pitch.
My video of the incident.

Just a reminder, as Austin FC gears up for a big match tonight against San Jose, what trendline the team should be invested in turning around:

Faltering down the stretch: A look at Austin FC's post-July performances
If you think Austin FC has trouble finishing out seasons, we have math to prove you right. Perhaps this season will reverse a trend ... but it's not happening thus far.

PAY ATTENTION: L.A. just got a little preview of what’s coming. No arrests. No real “threat.”

Just cops in riot armor playing soldier. Martial law isn’t a conspiracy anymore, it’s a countdown.

Along those lines, this is a really good article. The urge to write off 'red' states means erasing millions of people who resist or seek change

As we celebrate Pride Month, I am struck by the contrast of what I know to be true about this region and what the popular narratives may be.

Holding whole groups to collective responsibility for the actions of some members of that group is the basis for all bigotry.

If your reaction to hearing about a bunch of children dying in a flood in Texas is to make a snappy comment about how red states deserve it then you should fuck off and lock yourself in a closet until you can develop the actual fucking empathy and political understanding of an adult

the big questions for american democracy going forward seem to be (1) can the GOP actually build the federal police state they just funded, (2) in time to finish before democratic checks can be established, and (3) whether dems gaining power would actually try to stop/dismantle it

It really is incredible how despite a half-century of expanding executive power, ballooning the debt, bloating the government, and policing private behavior, the GOP is still discussed as the party of small government libertarianism and fiscal responsibility. Just no relation to reality at all.

Siri text dictation misunderstood new Austin FC midfielder Dubersarsky as 'Dusky' but I kinda like it as a potential nickname

IMO how Austin FC should aim to lineup if the Driussi and Uzuni transfers go through.

@moontowersoccer.bsky.social @thenorthendpodcast.bsky.social the latest episode of Soccerwise has some details on new MLS rule changes beyond the cash transfers that could benefit Austin FC. Worth checking out.
