The Finnish candle is just a log with a few chainsaw cuts, yet it burns like a torch for up to three hours and doubles as a cooking stove.

FLASHBACK — Republican Paul Weyrich (co-founder of the Heritage Foundation & ALEC): “I don’t want everybody to vote… our leverage in elections goes up as the voting populace goes down.” They’ve been saying it out loud for years. Please vote. 🗳️ 🇺🇸

You can't expect the New York Times to give any attention to a story about the president being credibly accused of violent rape when the story breaks so close to an election. It's not like we're talking about something *really* important, like email security protocols.

So hard to pick a favorite part of this article. Pretending that sending unsolicited dick pics at 53 was a “youthful indiscretion” is good, but don’t sleep on the argument that his wife forgave him for subjecting other women to unwanted nude photos so everyone else should too

people magazine should have named zohran the sexiest man alive because it's true and it would piss off the worst people

Picture waking up to the news that the strongman who ruled your country for 14 years had finally lost. That’s what happened in Serbia on Monday. People poured into the streets, crying and celebrating. I’d love to wake up November 4 feeling that kind of joy. #BlueWaveIn7Days

Lotta New Yorkers chiming in on replies to say that Brighton Beach is way more Russian-coded to them than anything else, and I'm here as a non-NYer to agree. Also, describing Chagall as only Jewish is weird af. What is wrong with this dude?

the ADL is more mad about Zohran calling a neighborhood Eastern European than Elon giving a Nazi salute Zohran derangement syndrome is real

Continued mild curse aside, I am a really decent chunk into it now! Currently knitting on two size smaller needles, two sizes down from desired size, to get something roughly one size bigger than desired because my handspun is so darn thick I am loving it though, look at them!!!

So here's the plan: Rosa Pomar's Sheep Sweater with one row of sheep in each colour, each from a different specific sheep breed I could not be happier with how my fleece purchases worked out, I thought the fawn was the same as the light brown but it was just immensely dirty. Serendipity!

That's an absolutely absurd decision from the referee. That's a horrid, scissors challenge on him. And Dowman basically shoves the dude as he's wrapped around his ankles.

Fleetwood have been permitted to be extraordinarily physical all match with Arsenal. That guy put in a potentially leg breaking challenge. Nothing given for that. But the Arsenal man gets sent off for being upset that he's nearly had his leg broken by some League Two nobody.

That’s why despite all its progress English football, especially the national team, is still second rate. A wild over the top challenge is overlooked and the reaction is judged more harshly.

Edaureen The Ninth (a.k.a Doreen Sheridan) reposted

I am still fuming about that whole sequence... Dowman got kicked several times before and in that sequence too. That was purposely violent challenge on Dowman. And after him lashing out, they ganged up on 16yo. And ref did f all all game to do anything about it, but was happy to send Max off.

Edaureen The Ninth (a.k.a Doreen Sheridan) reposted

It basically happened. We are very lucky Max (and Eze) weren’t hurt. The referee was utterly irresponsible. I have never understood why player safety isn’t more important, actually paramount, to the football organizations in the UK.

You know what I worry about? Some two-bit goon from the minnow trying to show off his supposedly big balls and hurting one of our guys.

Setting that performance aside, we saw what this competition did to us early last year. It’s disappointing, but that extra rest could actually be a blessing in disguise. 🤷🏽‍♂️

it's funny how they just accuse any nonwhite person who isn't a slobbering right-wing sycophant of being "anti-white"

What Kamala Harris proposes in not impeaching Trump is this the same reason why letting Jefferson Davis and the rest of the Confederate soldiers and leaders off the hook was a bad idea.. We've been paying for it ever since😡
