so fuck 'em. vote like you're trying to give each and every one of them a god damn election night heart attack. and every place we don't quit win, dig the fuck in because I want them to never get a peaceful night of sleep again because they are having feverish tribunal nightmares.

Houston Texans linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair speaks out after being fined by the NFL for wearing the name of Palestinian child Hind Rajab on his eye black during a game. Rajab was killed by Israeli forces in Gaza. NBA player Kyrie Irving offered to pay the fine. www.aljazeera.com/video/newsfe...

Gonna start referring to Democrats who take anti-trans stances as “Biological Republicans”

“Death by football” is a phrase we should say aloud. If they don’t die on the field it doesn’t mean we aren’t treating them like gladiators, sent to die for our enjoyment. Remebering that the men on the line taking those hits are largely Black, dying to protect the QBs who are largely white.

Whether we want to admit it or not, every NFL game is a snuff film. It's long past time fans of the sport faced up to a reality that becomes clearer every day: American football is simply too dangerous. This year, turn off the NFL. Our latest in @theguardian.com @us.theguardian.com.

Someone find me pictures of McGlynn and Silkowitz’s little hug mid penalty kick VAR. The goalie love so precious. #nwsl #goalie #utahroyals #bayfc

Seen on the highway today: DID YOU VOTE FOR TASER GLOVES?

Hell yes, Ken! If you’re left-ish but throwing trans people under the bus you’re a COWARD!

Bandaaaaaa!!

If you're arresting people at the airport on their way OUT of the country, your goal.was never border security. It's filling for-profit concentration camps.

Rep. Aisha Gomez: “To look at people standing up against ICE and see ‘paid protesters’ says nothing about us and everything about you.” “That you cannot conceive of us loving our neighbors so much that we would actually do something for them.”

One for the gays!!!

Oh dang this song is really good. #comeover #bts

What in the UFC is this game?

This is not how politics has to work if you have the simple moral clarity to say “fuck you, why do you care about trans healthcare if you aren’t a trans person trying to get healthcare? What are you going to do next, wipe my ass for me? Tell me what I should read? I thought we were Americans here”

With its recent rulings, the Roberts Court has now entirely perverted the purpose of the 15th Amendment, turning an outright ban on racial discrimination in voting into a right to discriminate against black voters. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

Honored to serve on the advisory board for @fairsq.bsky.social and this timely campaign. As my fellow advisory board member @okwonga.bsky.social put it, "Infantino isn’t fit to lead FIFA. 
And FIFA isn’t fit to govern football. Agree? Add your name to this mass complaint." rebootfifa.com/sign/

Come the hell on Houston! Get ‘em!

C’mon Houston! C’mon Houston!

In November I broke this story about Andrew Paul Johnson, a pardoned J6er who molested children and used the promise of reparations to bribe his victims silence.

1. Incredible breaking news and a landmark ruling out of Colorado. The Colorado Supreme Court has ruled that hospitals MUST not capitulate to Trump, and must continue offering trans youth care under state law. They found vague federal threats "speculative." Subscribe to support our journalism.

In Portland, where soccer has long been political, a new USL W team brought on the local Planned Parenthood as a kit sponsor. I spoke with folks from the Cherry Bombs, PP, & the Rose City Riveters about the collab & how reproductive health impacts women's sports: www.theixsports.com/the-ix-socce...

I am not worried software is suddenly going to decide it wants power over humanity. I am worried about what people who already have power over humanity can do with that software.

BREAKING: Fifth Circuit three-judge panel of all Republican appointees blocks rule allowing mailing of mifepristone, agreeing with Louisiana challenge to a policy ending the in-person dispensing requirement for the abortion drug. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

It's a shame that "defend your culture" always means "hate strangers different from you" and never "enact anti-pollution laws so that you can go fishing with your grandkids the way your grandpa taught you."

I don’t think we talk nearly enough about the fact that corporations like Amazon, don’t pay a single cent to maintain the roads they use, the transportation system they use, the courts they use, they pay nothing for the infrastructure that is absolutely critical to their business. WE Pay for

And here’s a gift link to the remarkable story about the FBI Director from @theatlantic.com. www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...

I would like us, led by a decrepit game show host, to stop rampaging all over the globe, making life immeasurably worse and deadlier for millions of people on different continents including within our own country, but I’m told that political position is gay

Trump's word means very little. Plus, a sneaky ICE workaround is already in place: 3 World Cup host cities—Miami, Dallas, & Houston—have 287(g) agreements with the Trump admin, empowering local police to conduct immigration enforcement (& to get reimbursed for the salaries+benefits of officers).

If they’re gonna go ahead with this tournament we can’t be blind to what we’re being suckered in to. Homework for all footiedom.

NAHHHHHH EFF ALL THE WAY OFF.

We can’t unring the bell of an American president threatening to do genocide

Trump’s unhinged social-media posts, wherein he openly threatens war crimes against civilians, are connected to these everyday acts of xenophobic bigotry. Trump structures permission for racist hate.

Turns out covering up for pedophiles isn't a winning strategy. See you at Nuremberg 2.0
