Brazil’s former Dictator Bolsonaro will begin serving his 27 year prison sentence for plotting a coup in his country.
If only Merrick Garland had gotten the job done when we had the chance and sent the orange felon and his insurrectionists to jail where they belong. Scumbag.

The guy shot two random people with a gun, I don't think you can say he wasn't assimilating into our culture
Stephen Miller is now arguing that assimilation is fundamentally impossible and that certain cultures are not compatible with Western civilization

While I'm glad Australia won the first Test of this Ashes Series, I'm not happy that it was over in less than two days.
T20 Tests are disappointing.

It's only 3:00 pm on Day 2 of the first Test, and England have already batted twice
Australia needs 204, in three days, to win.
Given the way both teams are batting this will be over by lunch tomorrow, and either team could win

Charlie Kirk spent his life‘s work and all of his energy and time targeting out-groups while arguing for a world in which gun massacres would be easy to enact, plentiful, and inevitable, and he became famous and wealthy doing it, and we’re now not supposed to mention that because it’s not polite.

I recommend avoiding South African Airways. We flew Business Class, and our seats didn't work.
They didn't recline, and the entertainment system didn't work. Even the lights wouldn't turn on.
To date, I have received no response to my formal complaint.

@flysaa.bsky.social We had very poor service with this airline.
We flew Business Class from Johannesburg to Perth, and our seats were totally non-functional.

Dr David Livingstone "discovered" a waterfall complex known locally as Mosi-oa-Tunya (the smoke that thunders) in 1855 and promptly named it as Victoria Falls after the Queen.
It is called Victoria Falls to this day.
I think Zimbabwe should return it to it's original name.
