What’s up with all the porn crap in my feed. I don’t follow or look for this and block all of it when I see it, but it keeps happening? Come on blusky. This isn’t why most of us are here.

Beloit, WI revitalized its waterfront and chose this way to celebrate it: by bringing to life Georges Seurat's "A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte."

Is the University Of Austin Betraying Its Founding Principles?
Created as a haven for free thinkers, UATX was the last place where I’d expected to encounter ideological litmus tests.

Oh boy.
I’m seeing a lot of outrage about this story but honestly it’s preferable to the old way of doing this which was both disrespectful of the deceased and traumatising for the puppeteer

Post-game show never change. Maybe my memory is fuzzy, but I think we won that one.

First time I can remember Austin leading the post-game show since like 2022, and usually not even that year.

No one has ever not read the room like @schumer.senate.gov has not read the room. Grow a spine and fight or step aside and let someone else lead.

I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to “the left” and therefore ignorable.

Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes.

Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason.

To get cheated on by this.
Every once in a while I just marvel at the fact that Olivia Nuzzi threw away her career for... this
RFK Jr: "It used to be that everybody got measles. And the measles gave you lifetime protection against measles infection. The vaccine doesn't do that ... it used to be that very young kids were protected by breast milk. Women who get vaccinated do not provide that level of immunity."

It is with deep sadness that I report to you that Matt Doyle doesn’t seem to understand our roster signings and doesn’t think our ceiling is that high. Pour some Electric Jellyfish out for this one y’all.

I’m so excited for the new season and have high hopes. But if this lineup doesn’t work out, we are probably stuck with it for a bit.
🟢👨‍🍳 Austin FC's huge offseason with five key signings so far:

🇦🇱 Myrto Uzuni: $12.3m (DP)
🇺🇸 Brandon Vazquez: $10m (DP)
🇦🇷 Nicolas Dubersarsky: $3m (U22)
🇪🇸 Ilie Sanchez (free)
🇸🇪 Besard Sabovic (free)
🟢🇦🇱 Sources: Austin FC are completing the deal to sign forward Myrto Uzuni from Granada.

Austin triggered $12.3m release clause & agreed personal terms. Medical done this week in Europe. Uzuni signed.

Second time this month Austin set a new club-record transfer. Huge offseason

The facts are, the ACA saved millions with pre-existing conditions and set standards for care.

But now, more than a decade later, with what we now know, it’s time to take the insurance companies out of the mix.
The subsidies they get are enormous. We don’t need them as middlemen.

Gonna be that guy, but kolaches are Texas Czech, an important distinction.

For those keeping score at home, this would reportedly be more than $25 million in transfer fees for our 3 DPs. This would represent a serious investment in the roster. LFG!

Myrto Uzuni’s future is in limbo as he refuses to train with Granada amid a reported $10 million offer from @AustinFC. The 29-year-old Albanian forward, in search of a contract upgrade, could be on his way to Austin FC, where he would double his salary and become a key addition to the squad.

X has ~18m daily USA users. @bsky.app, ~1.5m.

Is it worth 20 MINS a day to proactively recruit and bring your friends, neighbors,relatives, businesses, anyone who is or could be a user, to @bsky.app?

If Bluesky ends up with more users than the others, you destabilize musk, zuck, trump.

People don’t think enough about being grateful for things that didn’t happen. Like Forsberg being grateful for not going to middle school in the U.S. with that name.

Okay what if…and stay with me here…the production mixed them so this wasn’t necessary.
If those tvs were really smart, they would automatically adjust the mixes on shows and movies so you could actually hear the dialogue without getting blasted by the soundtrack seconds later
