I spoke to the mom of the 3-year-old soccer star who was left "thinking he did something wrong" after a league official called police "due to a disturbance between parents" The youth sports league said they launched a review and reached out to the family

huffpost.comViral 3-Year-Old Soccer Star ‘Traumatized’ After Police Were Called In The Middle Of The Game“They called the police on a 3-year-old because he’s too good,” Nevada’s father, Don, can be heard saying in the video.

This may be naive or flawed, but I don’t understand why Dems don’t try an argument like this: “Being a democracy requires that we balance different rights. I believe that the right for all of us to be who we are is more important than the right to win a medal in a junior high swim meet.

What I wrote about Gavin Newsom a year ago is never more applicable to several Democrats today. I foresaw this coming, and I continue to hold this true.

🔥 @bookersquared.bsky.social to the Memphis Council: “I’ll give y’all a million dollars worth of game for free— This will kill your political career. Even conservatives are for data center moratoriums… if you don’t care about the well being of Memphians at least care about your💰.” It failed 6-6

this seems like pretty much the maximally bad breach shape for the age of agents

This is actually a much worse scenario than if someone had broken in and stolen the key, because at least only that blackhat group would be able to stage the man in the middle attack. Due to the nature of the fuckup LITERALLY EVERY SYSADMIN OF A MIDDLE NODE KNOWS THE KEY AND CAN STAGE AN ATTACK.

Hoo boy, just watched and it was both frustrating and scary. You were saying the truth, and it was bouncing right off of him. I didn’t realize they were giving you a voice only so they could tell you you’re wrong.

all of us just watched these university admins wield enormous power against palestinian student orgs, including unaffiliated ones, so these excuses land flatter than ever

The university noted that fraternities are not “Recognized Student Organizations” at UChicago and therefore have no formal affiliation with the school. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

You know, the thing is, I had drafted this piece a month ago, and then never published it, because I thought maybe it was too mean.

Earlier this week, I agreed to interviews with two USA Today journalists. They wrote fantastic articles about the Cornell case that I'm proud to have been a part of. What I did not know is that their employer considers interviews to proprietary and opens up recordings to be used by any journalist.

Yes every woman has been harassed, many assaulted. But every woman has also experienced invisible loss from moments she avoided harassment. She felt a space becoming unsafe, so she left, while men stayed on. And in leaving, she lost: opportunities, experiences, learning, promotions, even simply fun.

Never forget this: The forces rigging our economy, undermining our democracy, polluting our planet, and stoking hatred are counting on you to give up. Cynicism is how they win. Stay clear-eyed and ready for the fight ahead.

This is pretty fucking wild. I had assumed in a worst case scenario he would target blue zip codes and toss ballots based on technicalities but this is even worse than I imagined.

we can learn a lot how Magyar launched “Operation Cleansing Fire” to reform the courts and completely de-orbanize Hungary the funniest things to me though is that 1. this has been an extinction-level event for Fidesz 2. human rights Watch is mad about it for some reason, truly beyond parody

One guy has a trifecta he's using to hide cops who killed our neighbors for protesting goons putting churro ladies in concentration camps. The other says stupid shit occasionally on a Twitch stream, where he spends like 90% of his waking time. I want my party's leader to fight only the first guy.
