Finally watched a Filipino play in the Premier League! (Alphonse Areola, Filipino French keeper for West Ham.)

Alphonse Areola stands in goal for West Ham in the second half of their home game against Brentford.

Team Maeda for the win.

This great young team for Japan 🇯🇵 defeats Team McNamara 8-3 in the men’s under-25 final.

And they are so appreciative of the crowd as they make their way off the ice.

I wish I was fluent in Japanese so I could have communicated better how beautiful the Peace Wing is.

Bryan @bryanuf.bsky.social · 2d

The Daichi Kamada effect: Two Japanese women each bought their kid new Crystal Palace shirts with "KAMADA" printed on the back. One of them appeared to be from Hiroshima because she had a Sanfrecce keychain on her bag, so we spoke about the Peace Wing for a moment. @aishiterutokyo.bsky.social

MAGA people don't know how to exist without an appalled audience. Sure, they probably have some half-baked nefarious plans coming over here, but the primary drive is their insatiable emotional need for our attention. Everybody please do your part to deny them it. 🫡

ICE responded two days after I asked for a statement on Cook County Board President Toni Preckwinkle making county property “ICE free zones.”

I’m not sure they know who SHE (a cis woman in her position for 15 years + 19 on Chi City Council) is.

They use “he” and “his” so it’s not a spelling error.

Media Inquiry 6:20 PM
to me, ICEMedia, JEFFREY, STEVEN

"The Cook County Board President Toni Preckwinkle should be thanking ICE law enforcement officers for arresting violent criminals from his community. Instead, he is banning them from county owned property.
His reckless policies not only endanger our law enforcement, but public safety. While he continues to release pedophiles… (screenshot cuts off)

The Palace training jackets completely changed the way I use the word haha

Bryan @bryanuf.bsky.social · 2d

I've learned to use "jacket" for brisk weather (like today) and "coat" when I need something for cold temperatures.

i imagine there’s about to be an influx of MAGA chuds spewing their bullshit but i really can’t stress enough that if we don’t give them oxygen, they’ll get bored and leave. block early and often.

NEW: “Bands of masked men apprehending people in broad daylight in the streets and hauling them off. Disappearing people to a third country,” a former DHS official said. “We’re at an inflection point in history right now and it’s frightening.”

How Trump is Building a Repressive, Shadowy Federal Police Force

Trump’s DHS appointees have dismantled civil rights guardrails, protected agents’ anonymity and encouraged them to wear masks, threatened groups that stood in their way, and overwhelmed legal challenges to their arrests and tactics.

For the first time in more than 100 years, Chinook salmon have been spotted at the confluence of the Sprague and Williamson rivers in Chiloquin, the government seat of the Klamath Tribes in Southern Oregon.

Salmon clear last Klamath dams, reaching Williamson and Sprague rivers

Just a year after four dams were removed, a group of fall Chinook have migrated nearly 300 miles into the Upper Klamath Basin.
