I know it has happened countless times before but for some reason “Israel bombed tents” has stopped me in my tracks today.

Tents. A strong wind could probably knock the tents over and Israel bombed them into oblivion, killing dozens upon dozens of people.

The horrors are never-ending.

Go Badgers.
The Buffalo Bills have agreed to terms with Jim Leonhard as their defensive coordinator, per source. @RapSheet first to report.
The former Bills safety joins Joe Brady's staff

Older kid ran down the street to see if her friend could play in just a hoodie and costume cloak from Frozen.

It’s 4 degrees out lmaooooo

This might sound like a weird connection, but this also happened even with a record-setting crowd at the Unrivaled games.

WBB fans are historically progressive and politically active and presumably a good portion of the hoops crowd would’ve been at this march too.
The brave city of Philadelphia rose against the regime, protesting well into the night despite the cold temperatures

"Fight, fight, fight!
Fine people, fight ICE."

"Every city, every town,
fuck ICE, shut it down."

"No justice, no peace"

btw the civility panic a few years ago was about precisely this: the ability to have polite conversations about how black people are racially inferior in public without criticism or backlash bsky.app/profile/hann...
Jeffrey Epstein sent a link to the white nationalist podcast The Right Stuff, whose core hosts played an active role in the 2017 “Unite the Right” rally. He did so in February 2016. Before TRS made national news, really.

Genuinely bizarre.

There’s nothing more embarrassing than fully understanding this post. Wait, no, the only thing more embarrassing is trying to explain this post to a normal person.
I hate living in the Asshole Cinematic Universe.

“So the King of Pedophiles got the 4chan guy to make the Nazi board and that’s why the host of Celebrity Apprentice was made immune to laws by the Tradcath Illuminati. This has something to do with video game journalism, maybe?”

Fuck off.

How many more people would’ve attended if Caitlin Clark had been playing?

A Christine Brennan investigation
With a crowd of 21,490, Unrivaled has broken the women's basketball attendance record, surpassing the previous mark of 20,711 held by the WNBA's Fever-Mystics game in 2024 🔥

Shoutout to Marina Mabrey donating all of her Crashout Jar money this month to Minnesota charities.

Marina Mabrey, the best No. 3 to play on this court in Philadelphia?

Xbox LIVE was willing to do in 2013 what the entire US establishment was not.

The Wisconsin Badgers men’s hockey team has recently been playing like I expected them to this year (derogatory)

I don’t know nothing about nothing, but I do know the first time I listened to “Still Tippin’” I had to play it again right after because it was like nothing I’d ever hear before.

RIP to a musical difference maker.
Damn RIP Micheal “5000” Watts🕊️

ICE is quietly reshaping daily life in greater MN, too.

In Willmar, more than 1,200 of 4,000 students were absent recently -- both white and BIPOC, teacher Tammy Knapper says. ICE detained a 19-year-old student for five days. Trauma takes the place of learning. Something must change. #edmnvotes

I was at that 1998 Sixers/Bulls game! It was Michael Jordan’s last regular season road game as a Chicago Bull.

I’m pretty sure my sister was at this Backstreet Boys concert too lol.
The announced attendance is 21,490 - the largest announced crowd in this building's history.

The prior record for basketball was 21,305 for 76ers-Bulls in 1998.

The prior record for any crowd was 21,424 for a Backstreet Boys concert in 1999.

The smaller court made room for more seats tonight.

We had a funny moment here as when they hit the button for the national anthem, it immediately started playing the chorus of "It's Tricky." #wisbb

The highest attended event in the history of Xfinity Mobile Arena.

All-Time Record attendance for a professional women's basketball game.

Philly is unreal and Unrivaled.

It's near-white out conditions in Chicago as the snow comes down, and tonight's anti-ICE/CBP rally is wrapping up in front of city hall.

But not before the crowd bounces and chants, "I believe that we will win!"

It makes you sound crazy to say this out loud, but it's becoming increasingly clear that the United States government has been effectively toppled by a group of overt pedophiles

Josh Harris go to jail, bitch
The Sixers owner shows up scores of times in emails released Friday by the U.S. Department of Justice, covering a period after Epstein's conviction for solicitation of sex with a minor.
New Epstein files show years of email exchanges with Sixers co-owner Josh Harris
