USA TODAY Opinion@usatodayopinion.usatoday.com · 3d agoOpinion: Mamdani's idea may sound appealing, but it's NYC taxpayers who will take the hit, subsidizing discounts they may never even use.
I'm babysitting my nephew (white) and his bride (light brown), and he's so hopelessly codependent. He's constantly and very loudly "courting" her for her attention and grooming her 🥹
I could barely afford vibranium as it was

Just left The Odyssey and this is my first thought seeing Argos

I have read many, many problematic 18C texts, but absolutely nothing comes close to Edward Long's The History of Jamaica It is the most racist horseshit in the history of racist horseshit
Discovered this gem while I was skimming through this sub lol
Damon Young@damonyoung.com.au · 2w agoNope. No, you haven’t.
We went to the Yankees v Dodgers game on Sunday and I'm still thinking about the 3 Dodgers fans who get escorted out by security (idk why, but in Yankee stadium, it must've been BAD), threw the bird at the head sec guy, head sec guy screams, "Told you I'd have the last laugh!!" I love NY so much
PSA on the Victoria Line tube in London. Phillipson and every other GC weirdo needs to take note.
I did not sit through the whole game so Spain won!!! You're welcome
Kathleen Alves@katalves18c.bsky.social · 3w agoSo. Every single game I've sat through from start to finish, the team i rooted for lost. I don't like this witchcraft ☹️
Personally, the most mundane moments feel the most sublime. Not the "high-impact, core memories" she's talking about. This is so sad.

Someone smart please tell me WHY I can't just do a quick soapy water rinse of my produce ?
Please enjoy this wee Comet photoshoot by my gigantic bee balm patch ✨️
Setting aside the cartoonish racism of this ad -- Tennessee ranks one of the lowest in healthcare access and one of the highest for incarcerated people. But sure, China and Communists are the problem
Matt Novak@paleofuture.bsky.social · 4w agoMarsha Blackburn's new ad is so racist that it makes me wonder if mainstream Republicans could have gotten away with something like this back in the 1980s or 90s.
Logged on to the ARG/EGY game and within a minute, Egypt scored Witchcraft, again, and only seems to work when I'm watching a match in a language other than English 🤷♀️
Spoke with my boomer parents who taught med school in the Philippines and they casually said, "No one assigned homework. There's no time for that. You lecture, then assign a test. Students were expected to do the reading without prompts." Can you imagine?!?
Comet: [snoring] My dad: Should we get Comet tested for sleep apnea? Me: Should we get MY DOG tested for sleep apnea?!?
I have discovered Haaland's snapchat posts and his overall goofiness and it is so endearing
I choose to believe that there was one and she knew exactly what she was doing 😈
I hope Mexico beats England today as revenge for Mexico week on the Great British Bake-off
My kid: you know we have free wifi on the plane Me: I know, I just want to be FREE
I am in Berlin and I noticed young people watching videos of Mamdani. There was a special talk at the university of Groningen on his election and tenure so far. The reach is astounding. And cool to see.
I'm rooting for Senegal like I've got money on the game (I do not) Everybody calm down, we have 40 minutes left 😬
