If anything, everything is worse (and stupider) than even I would have imagined. Again: not a surprise, but still constantly shocking.
Couple more months of this shit and Miami gets the World Cup Final
I've gotten confirmation of this - Argentina vs. Puerto Rico is being relocated OUT of Chicago due to ongoing upheaval caused by ICE, National Guard.

Albiceleste will stay in Leo Messi's backyard (metaphorically) for both of this month's matches
Mailbox: Event promoters say that the friendly between Argentina and Puerto Rico for Oct 13 has been moved to Ft. Lauderdale for 10/14

No notice on socials or website from promoters or AFA.

Tickets remain on sale at pretty astronomical prices on Ticketmaster's website
Looking forward to May, when I'll start paying attention again
Panthers fans chant “We want three!”
Um, are we going to be able to get packages from Europe again, or is that just permanently over?
I've given Alexi Lalas so much latitude just for being in this photo

the irony here is that Trump spends the entire clip talking about Chicago, which will not be hosting any World Cup games

I really, REALLY wish people would internalize the absolute stranglehold voter suppression and gerrymandering have over many red states with high BIPOC populations (who reliably vote blue) before consistently writing off these entire states and saying shit like “they deserved it”.

That Trump and Trumpism are fascist doesn’t explain the sheer vandalism of unleashing mass murdering mayhem via RFK to replace medical/scientific institutions of immense value and prestige with medieval peasant superstitions. That is a criminal madness facilitated by but above and beyond fascism.

What is your biggest concert flex?
"Defined by"? I'm going with "wasted by"
I’m so mad my middle ages are going to be defined by Donald fuking Trump
Just want to chime in positively for Presidente. It's cheaply made. It is not "good beer". I love it
Nooooooooo Shiiiiiiiiiiiiiitttt
Despite voters’ dissatisfaction with it, the economy Trump inherited from Biden was actually pretty good: Unemployment was low, and inflation was under control.

Now, jobs reports show tariff-driven inflation and a downturn in hiring.

The Trumpers I know personally are not idiots. They are aware that Trump is a disaster. But none of them are willing to admit it. Their pride has no off ramp
I've been thinking about this. For the Trump voters I know, his sudden death might be the best-possible development, even if they wouldn't realize it. He would die before the country/economy/world fully collapses, so they'd be able to pretend into perpetuity that their votes weren't so horrible
