A lotta yall still dont get it. Club World Cup Ticket pack holders can use multiple packs on a single cup. So if you have 1 astro pack and 3 slurp cups you can create 3 new tickets. Tonight’s pack minting event is essentially a minting event for both Club World Cup tickets and World Cup tickets
FIFA's latest ploy to sell the Club World Cup — with "ticket packs" that offer access to 2026 World Cup tix — is ... quite deceptive and/or absurd.
Clause 4.2 of the "Terms of Sale," and common sense, explain why:

The npc meme is notable specifically for not containing a kernel of truth, like it's purely a way to signal you're submerged in online gamergate/incel madness with no connection to reality. Saying it seriously, like w "the woke mind virus," is just saying "I am fucking insane"
"The Nazis had a kernel of truth to in their slogan about how their opponents were not human beings but disposable fake humans" what the fuck is wrong with you
![Screenshot of text:
Like any good insult, the NPC meme served a dual purpose. [Highlighting begins] It contained a kernel of truth about its target. [Highlighting ends] We liberals can be conformist. We can be too afraid to offend. We can be overly deferential to institutions. We can be cowed by the in-group policing we inflict on ourselves and quick to take up the cause of the moment. But the real purpose of the NPC insult was self-congratulation. The right was full of live players. You could see it in their willingness to offend, their mistrust of institutions, their eagerness to debate what liberals would not even say out loud. This became part of the Trumpist right’s self-definition: They were the nonconformists, the coalition that wasn’t made up of automatons. That’s what America needed. Live players.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:lyspo2bgxpznqtug5ir2q33g/bafkreiffkywqsegqggmdsyprqvpodus3eglp4o2p2jyp7pymep26yg3loq@jpeg)

I would argue that sick & disabled folks have used social media to organize and mobilize. Some of us can’t protest in the streets or meet in person but we made a difference

Well the award for most cowardly, boot-lickingest academic society has squarely gone to the American Society of Microbiology, who has taken down features of various non-white scientists. Absolutely pathetic behavior. Those articles are now coming up as “under review”. Truly sickening cowardice here.
