It’s hard to explain but tv was better when you couldn’t watch the show you wanted whenever you wanted to watch it and most of the shows were worse and the TVs were worse and the entire experience was worse, that’s when it was better

Private equity would likely mean more commercial inventory.

Higher ticket prices. More advertising. Longer tournaments. More competitions.

⚽️ The game becomes increasingly driven by shareholder returns rather than what’s best for the sport.

Anyway, for anyone just watching the World Cup very confused by today:

yes, the rules are all basically fake, it's completely subjective who gets the breaks, it's always been like this and it's an integral part of the sport.

one thing that’s dying out in the next generation or so is knowing roads. my parents will ask me shit like “how’d you get there? 178? 232?” buddy i went where the computer told me.
Can’t lie, the fact that y’all were driving with PAPER maps is insane. Even worse, you had to ask random strangers for directions??
Saw a meme of GenZ baffled by how pre-internet travel worked, and realized we’ve crossed an enshittification threshold where IRL services that once seemed outdated, like travel agents, now seem luxurious: “You meet with a human expert who plans out your whole trip with you” sounds incredible now tbh

Look if you think it’s fine for Trump to corruptly get a red card revoked (or “suspended”) bc FIFA is already corrupt, maybe you understand the MAGA mindset better than you think. “All politicians are corrupt so it’s ok for Trump to be corrupt” is a very common maga rationalization

my hot take is that this is the actual america 250. just a ton of different people coming together, showing people what makes America weird and fun. people being welcoming. and yeah there’s some bullshit too, which is also very true to America! but the good and community far outweighs it rn.

Cape Verde captured the hearts of the soccer world this tournament. Words can't describe.

I was dubious of the 48-team World Cup. Maybe this Cape Verde team still would havet qualified with 32 (topped their group in qualifying).

This team is the best argument for expanded tournament.

Will never forget this Cape Verde team, making it clear even the smallest of places can compete with the biggest of stars on the world stage 💙❤️🤍

The Supreme Court's second opinion is NRSC v. FEC. By a 6–3 vote, the court guts another campaign finance statute and overturns a 2001 precedent that upheld restrictions on political parties' coordinated expenditures with candidates. The three liberals dissent. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...

Algeria: "Hey Austria, remember what you did to us 40 years ago? Let's do that again so we can both qualify"
Austria: "Idk people hated when we did that"
Algeria: "Oh yeah... Let's just score a bunch of cool goals so that no one really cares"

Big props to Brad Lander on winning his primary. Dude has done the moral thing many times and put his body on the line against ICE. He even came to Minnesota during the ICE Occupation to see the injustice firsthand. It’s nice to see moral courage rewarded by voters.

In yesterday's Georgia primary runoffs, turnout fell statewide by 24%. Some races saw turnout drop by more than 60%.

Past statewide runoffs have cost GA taxpayers as much as $75 million.

These are predictable problems w/ runoffs, which ranked choice voting would solve.
