Never forget the time in 2020 Charlie Kirk (dead now) pretended to be a black guy on Twitter but forgot to switch accounts when giving himself a nice compliment.

obviously not the major driver of his health concerns but it is very funny to read A Christmas Carol as an adult and realize that when tiny tim first says "God bless us, every one!" he's a severely malnourished child and they've given him a cup of hot gin

Trouble is, and no disrespect to the original poster, but international football is the pure form. No transfer fees, no plutocrats buying clubs as toys. We all saw Cameroon in 1990, Iceland at Euro 2016, I mean there’s a million examples. Lose that, you really are fucked. Good luck everyone!
I’ve always wanted to abolish international football, but today, more than ever.

"And yet for all its flaws, Bluesky offers something which is becoming vanishingly rare in the modern world: a vision of life without the algorithm. What I see is what I have chosen to see. We own our own destiny on Bluesky."
Thank God for Bluesky

Back when we had a something like mainstream culture, with limited media options, it was possible for things to *matter*. Like, Nirvana & the onset of grunge really *mattered* -- everyone knew & cared & talked about it.

These days, everything is happening, all the time, but nothing really matters.

Found the tweet that Joyce Carol Oates bodied Elon Musk with and it's so beautiful in its eloquent, simple take down. So much so he's crashing out trying to prove he reads books now. Put this in the Louvre.
