And German clubs continue to acquit themselves rather well in the CL relative to budgets of PL clubs. And PL clubs seem happy to over & over again go to the Bundesliga well.

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.
The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.
People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.
And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

And what Andrew Cuomo lacks in integrity, he could never make up for with experience.

People are giving the Yankees a hard time for not scoring runs in Toronto, but in Canada, the law is completely different, judges have much more limited power.

i find this image so fascinating. it is both a literal example of authoritarianism but also a second-hand reproduction of the aesthetics of other authoritarian states. it's like a simulacra of authoritarianism whose purpose is to attempt to make the simulacra real.
This is a real photograph of Washington, DC this week, where the United States president has ordered military occupation in peacetime, and ordered the display of colossal portraits of himself.

what Americans seem to want is to be able to buy whatever product they want without government interference but also an ironclad guarantee that all store-sold products are safe, and we just need to recognize that these are contradictory ideas and we're gonna have to make people mad about the former

The pretexts for these paramilitary takeovers don’t matter
They’re lies
Don’t buy into their narrative
They’re normalizing military takeovers
That should be the opposing narrative, not crime rates which let them steer the conversation
WE should steer it
What they’re doing is unacceptable

Sadly, they love it. They have a huge persecution complex and the actual crime rate has never influenced their money or career stability, so they just enjoy the overtime that comes with "crime waves" and they do illegal work slowdowns when any of them face a single consequence.

This is basically the state of higher ed in the US these days. Those fights are pointless.
Humanities and STEM people love to fight with each other while funding for both is gutted to give a tax break to rent seeking car dealership owners who barely graduated high school.

This "golly, let's not let politics get in the way of friendship" pap that we hear from a lot of Trumpistas is basically a kind of gaslighting, as though burning down the constitutional order & kidnapping people to ship to gulags were just another ordinary policy disagreement.
One of the many contradictions of Trumpism is that the whole appeal of Trump is that he is waging TOTAL WAR on every other part of society. But then it's totally unfair if anyone else wants to fight back.
The guy behind Punk In The Park shared a statement after bands like Dropkick Murphys said they’ll never play it again due to his support of Donald Trump.
“We don’t have to see eye to eye on everything to come together and enjoy what unites us, great music, good times, and mutual respect,” he says.

Also, just…it is the summer of 2025, and the crisis that a bunch of self-described progressives in an immigrant-heavy blue city neighborhood are volunteering 100s or even 1000s of hours collectively to fight is…preventing seven story buildings with affordable housing
This is a disappointing article from the @chicagotribune.com @jake-sheridan.bsky.social leaving out the social context of e vs w of Broadway, the fact that proponents outnumbered opponents 2-1 in plan commission comments, and letting obvious lies go uncorrected www.chicagotribune.com/2025/07/20/p...
Plan to upzone Broadway promises housing, divides Edgewater
A plan to allow bigger buildings along North Broadway has support of Mayor Brandon Johnson, but faces opposition from Edgewater activists who say it will wreck the neighborhood’s character.

The thing that stands out here is so many Dems run campaigns terrified of (and thus buying into) the Fox News framing.
Mamdani is rightly mocking that framing as ridiculous and it resonates. He's not running scared. He's running proud of who he is and what he stands for.

Good morning! I'm in Uganda to visit family and friends.
But depending on your perspective, don't worry or I'm sorry: I'll be back by the end of the month.
See you soon, NYC.
