Dolly Parton did all the good she could, for all the people she could, for as long as ever she could. From her legendary songwriting to the Imagination Library—which sent 1 million books a month to children across the country—she was the best of America. Dolly, we'll miss your great heart.

"HOMES" ==> "SHAME" #OCanada 🇨🇦

God, I hate Argentina's soccer team (Messi excepted)

@repluzrivas.bsky.social So disappointed in the House vote for permanent Daylight Saving Time. Trust the science! We need permanent STANDARD time!

Wow. I was hoping it would happen, but I didn't think it would happen. Go Spain!

Oh, Egypt 💔

There’s no shame in losing to Belgium, but there is shame in losing this way. So comprehensively. We didn’t go out like Mexico. We didn’t have as good of a first half as Canada. We looked completely outmatched.

*Sigh* That was pathetic Go England! (And also Belgium - I DO like you guys, even if I can't forgive you due to my love for Tim Howard.)

Look, I fully realized the reality of the US losing tonight despite their best efforts. To lose playing this badly is sad. Stiil: "Any patriotic American is rooting for Belgium" is a moronic & shitty take.

Hot Take: we'll be better without Pulisic. 2nd Hot Take: Matt Turner is still our best goalie

This sounds a lot like, "I'm cool with protesters protesting as long as they don't inconvenience anything." The red card was given due to a clear violation of FIFA's own VAR rules. An injustice being righted is good, even if the reason it is righted is infuriating.

I may still loathe Pickford, but I'm definitely an England fan after today. Don't look back, just drive (on the wrong side) to the Finals, boys!

I hate the way Mexico plays (or rather doesn't play) football.

Paraguay should be ashamed of themselves. That was completely classless football (with 1 exception: their goalie). This official should never be allowed near a game again either.

250, y'all. Thinkin' about the melting pot today. Folks who came here outta hope or by force. Folks who were already here, minding their own damn business. All of us in this sometimes rocky boat, trying to make it work. I love y'all. Let's keep meltin' and whatnot.

OK, Portugal. You can have this one for Jota. (But no more)

Ugh. I like Croatia SO MUCH MORE than Ronoldo (not a high bar, but they are way above it). May Spain embarrass Portugal without mercy.

Heartbroken for Senegal 💔 What a game, though. Well played!!!!

Umm... is anyone else watching this Belgium - Senegal 2nd half? Can I root for BOTH teams?

I guess it's fitting that the corrupt, cheating team from Morocco wins in the end in a U.S. hosted World Cup. But I hope the ground swallow them when they play Canada.

Always happy for an #England goal, but also always happy for any goal against P(r)ickford. So... good game!

Messi has a fucking hat trick at 39 years old. Good freaking lord

The first nil-nil draw of this #WorldCup feels like a 10-0 win for Cape Verde. WHAT A GAME! (Tim Howard-level defending. Amazing.)

@repluzrivas.bsky.social @schiff.senate.gov @padilla.senate.gov My regular reminder that Permanent DST is unhealthy! Don't make us go against nature - Permanent STANDARD Time, please! Believe the scientists

What a difference a year makes... Happy #caturday

Congress is attempting to push forward permanent Daylight Saving Time tomorrow. Tell your rep to oppose its 8:30am sunrises, restore permanent Standard Time for natural health and safety instead! www.votervoice.net/ditchDST/Cam...

@repluzrivas.bsky.social Please reject the bill to adopt Permanent Daylight Saving Time! Listen to the science - we need permanent Standard Time to be healthy!

However appalled you are by this, it’s not enough. It’s a frank statement that Trump and Trumpists are above the law and need not even plausible excuses to loot your tax dollars. It’s a total failure of our civic institutions.

Bulgaria my new frontrunner. Still love Greece... maybe a tie? #Eurovision

I have no idea what the lyrics to that Greek Eurovision song are and I don't care. Take my vote.

Yub Nub motherfuckers

This officiating at #ACFC is literally the worst I have ever seen. Even in the USA. (And that is REALLY saying something.) Fire. This. Woman. Immediately. #NWSL

There is nothing more Ivy League Dude than JD Vance believing seven years of being Catholic makes him smarter than the Pope.

“Oh but Republicans would…” Lemme stop you right there. I know that Republicans are okay voting for men accused of sexual assault. Republicans are also okay with voting for racists, child rapists, genocidal maniacs, and whatever the fuck pathology is a “Ted Cruz.” So miss me with that argument.

In all seriousness, one thing that might be worth doing today: Tell your Reps and Senators to call Adm. Richard Correll, the Commander of U.S. Strategic Command, which controls the nation's nukes, and remind him of *his* unique responsibility to refuse an illegal order.

@schiff.senate.gov & @padilla.senate.gov : Please call Adm. Richard Correll, the Commander of U.S. Strategic Command, today and remind him of *his* unique responsibility to refuse an illegal order.

one of my strongest beliefs is that we're in our situation right now bc some of the most prominent talking heads (e.g. joe rogan, andrew schulz) are learning about politics in their 40s and 50s, instead of their teens and early 20s, and we have to go along for the ride as they learn basic things
