Every great player starts with a stat card that looks pretty ordinary. Potential: Unknown Dreams: Unlimited Local Court: Essential That's why we're investing in better basketball courts with OG and The National Basketball Players Association, so more young Londoners can write their own numbers.
Whether someone realizes it or not, accepting the "liberal bubble" framing at all is a way of granting the utterly absurd notion that the globally reviled and increasingly unpopular views of the reactionary right are the norm
Ian Boudreau@ianboudreau.com · 2d ago"Liberal bubble" has only ever meant anywhere where right wing perspectives aren't artificially elevated and forced into everyone's feeds.
Man, we are about to see some *crazy* panicked attempts at voter suppresion in this state

If you show up to Bluesky without following anyone, you'll be treated to a series of posts about art, music, and dogs. If you show up to X without following anyone, you'll be bombarded with right-wing conspiracies and white supremacist slop. It's weird which one is seen as a "political bubble"
That's what taxes are, man. That's the definition of taxes. "You are subsidizing things you might never use" man shut the fuck up. My taxes currently subsidize like oil company exec private jets, you think I'm upset at low-income people eating inexpensive bananas?
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.
New Yorkers had to subsidize the $117 million that the NYPD paid out for misconduct lawsuits in 2025 alone, even though most of them were never personally abused by a cop. Where's your worried op-ed on that one?

The whole point of the Bill of Rights is to protect the only true minority - the individual. It limits the governments power to harm the individual. The whole constitution is designed to limit the governments power.
Ronald Reagan ignored the AIDS crisis—and his “dear friend” from Hollywood, Rock Hudson, who asked for help. Dr. Fauci jumped in and helped. Guess which guy the homophobic ghouls in the Republican Party revere today.

it is very important that we have independent media and I am again tapping the sign for you to find billionaire free, worker run news to support how and when you are able
Joseph Cox@josephcox.bsky.social · 6d agoThat was fast. Google sent me a statement saying it is now “rolling back“ this AI feature after our demonstration and others from OSINT researchers www.404media.co/google-earth...
This is Middle Ages-level superstition and ignorance. The cause of cardiopulmonary issues like those he's describing is covid, not vaccines.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · last wk.Sen. Roger Marshall: "Who didn't have a friend who took this vaccine and had some time of complication? A stroke, a blood clot, a young man getting some type of heart inflammation. That's what destroyed the trust in the American people for our government."

TMZ’s Harvey Levin Calls GOP Attacks On Dr. Fauci ‘Heartbreaking,’ Compares It to McCarthyism
TMZ's Harvey Levin used his platform's social media channels to blast Sen. Rand Paul's pursuit of Dr. Anthony Fauci as a "heartbreaking" example of the Senator's years-long "witch hunt."

A small business owner of a children's party waterslide company, Francisco Longoria, was driving down the street in a suburban neighborhood when suddenly masked men attacked. ICE thugs broke their windows, assaulted them & shot at them 3 times. “I felt like death was imminent.” #ICELawlessness
to keep functioning, a society must discourage baldfaced lying, especially by authorities

Should be a bigger story— “Alexandra Bravo, prosecutor investigating 🇺🇸 strikes on 3 Ecuadorian boats and survivor accounts of torture/kidnapping, shot dead… hitman on a black motorcycle opened fire… Bravo’s sister jumped to protect her, also killed…” www.dropsitenews.com/p/prosecutor...
Reminder that any political party trying to make it harder to vote is sending a clear message: they can't win on their ideas alone.
Might have to take out a loan for this bad boy but it’d be worth it.

FYI there is no "real" reason why Rome "fell." Its power waned for the usual, mundane reasons: widening gap between rich and poor, inability to maintain infrastructure, incompetent leadership, pointless wars, endless persecution of marginalized groups who performed vital labor, etc.
8. Despite that, no one was ever punished for the heinous crime, but it increased awareness throughout the country to the racial violence of Blacks in the South. Truman also introduced anti-lynching legislation to congress, and created the first Committee on Civil Rights
Reporter: Congressman Kean, why did you trade stocks while you were missing votes for more than three months? Kean: 🦗🦗 Reporter: No response, sir? Kean: 🦗🦗
Call me crazy, but maybe two men who fathered 19 children with 7 different women shouldn’t be lecturing us about family values.
It would help a lot if a lot of journalists and pundits weren't using Twitter as their assignment editor, several years into its transition into Stormfront.
Adam Serwer@adamserwer.bsky.social · 2w agoIt is genuinely bizarre that we’ve become acclimatized to right wingers throwing a tantrum every time a black person (particularly a black woman) is cast in something, but are also supposed to pretend that this is not racism but related to some other substantive concern.
