On the centenary of Thatcher's birth, there have been predictable calls for a memorial to her memory. But Britain's 2300 food banks serve that purpose already.

🇸🇷 Suriname had a rich soccer history cut short by tragedy & turmoil.

Now, Dutch-Surinamese players are looking to carry on the legacy of the players that came before them - becoming local heroes in the process.

My piece from Paramaribo for @espn.com: www.espn.com/soccer/story...

Dutch-born players are making Suriname's World Cup dreams a reality

Thanks to a recent change in FIFA rules, Suriname is drawing on its Dutch lineage to fuel a fight for a place in the 2026 World Cup.

Really surprised by this Jetspeed Babes v. FTR/Megan Bayne match on Collision, most intergender matches are a little clunky because of the whole "only women fight women, only men fight men" shit and this one was just a straight up proper intergender brawl and it ruled

Every month, there's a new story about the cynical, predatory nature of the gambling industry.

As with the cigarette industry, when we eventually get round to properly regulating these parasites, we'll be ashamed we took so long to do it.

Seeing and hearing Stephen Miller on television with increasing regularity, & reacting with less & less alarm, is how extremism becomes background noise. Normalization is not harmless.

Also, he straight up admitted Trump is a dictator on CNN today 👇🏼

Yes, Stephen Miller Said Trump Had 'Plenary Authority' In A CNN Interview

A bizarre moment during a cable news interview saw one of the president's closest advisers make a wild assertion.
