Dan Campbell confirms he was told by officials that the ruling to overturn Jared Goff's TD pass came from New York, not officials on the field.

In other words, referee Craig Wrolstad was a good NFL stooge and lied to the pool reporter after the game

THIS. If a politician is willing to abandon today's Inconvenient Vulnerable Group in the name of political expedience? They'll abandon them all. And fascists will not be appeased by any of it, anyway. They just switch targets. That's how this works.

thinking about the liberal politicians willing to try to compromise with fascists by abandoning minority groups they don't really like - i wish they understood that fascists will come for everyone eventually. even themselves. fascism unopposed is a ruined state with everyone dead

In the 2010s, this country's elites were thrown onto social platforms with everyone else and could finally read what we all think about them and it caused them so much psychic damage that they decided to destroy both the internet and democracy to make sure nothing like it ever happened again.

If this is what it took for you to be pushed into fascism you were probably already there
This predates the social media wars of the late 2010s: One Trump appointee told me that a radicalizing experience was being booted out of the Gawker comments section, way back in the day. But as progressive movements swept through social media, others were tossed off Twitter and Facebook for stepping over a variety of lines, from allegations of harassment to claims of election misinformation. Pandemic era public health rules and fevered enforcement cost others their accounts.

“Antifa” considered as a singular organization is the ultimate expression of the conservative tendency to invent a guy and get mad at him.

BREAKING: Look at this.

A new crypto account was opened yesterday morning.

30 minutes BEFORE Trump's announcement of 100% tariffs on China, it added a huge multi-million dollar levered Bitcoin short position, per YF.

The market dumped.

The trader made +$192 million in two hours.

Unusual.

The forgotten realms and final fantasy sets were actually pretty good. LotR too I guess. The rest are very meh.

I agree but also know deep down that if they ever dropped a Gundam set I would immediately spend $3000.

Trump: "Portland, I mean -- every time I look at that place it's burning down. There are fires all over the place. When a store -- there are very few of them left -- but when a store owner rebuilds a store they build it out of plywood. They don't put up storefronts anymore. They just put wood up."

My gosh. After the US bombed multiple boats in the middle of the ocean, murdering people on grounds that they were allegedly "carrying drugs," the US Attorney General says "Just like we did with cartels, we're going to take the same approach, President Trump, with Antifa."
