America didn’t just lose a World Cup match. We lost credibility. A President personally intervened with FIFA over a disciplinary decision and created the appearance that political power could influence the rules of the game. The reputational cost was far greater than the sporting cost.

Made it to the finals for the first time ever tonight at The Game Vault! 🎉 Fueled by a strong latte and Bad Bunny, I finished 6th overall. Honestly the best part was sharing the floor with my long time friend @unndunn.com who ran the event. So happy to catch up and play a good tournament of pinball.

Had an opportunity to play the new Sonic the Hedgehog pinball game at Under the Glass in Red Bank, NJ. As a gamer this pinball machine is phenomenal. As a Sonic fan, you can feel the love they poured into it. We even sang along to the classic music like it was karaoke night. Such a blast! #Sonic

I bet Chuck Schumer and his billionaire donors are really, really worried about Zohran Mamdani taking over the Democratic party. I love this so much. 😂

Last night I saw IG photos from Shakira’s concert in CA. I have no idea WTF is going on. She’s got furries, fire and daggers. She looks like a badass playable character. I can’t help but think “OMG did Shakira [Sephiroth] do this?”

Embarking on a quest to restore the powers of earth, wind, fire, and water to the Four Orbs on my childhood Final Fantasy 1 cartridge tonight on stream! My dad got this game for me when I was a kid and I’ve kept the original box, an 80 page explorers handbook/manual, and inserts ever since!

Can somebody explain to me why the rule is "if you can't make rent, cut out the streaming apps, lattes, and avocado toasts" but it's never "if you can't afford your workers a living wage, cut out the mega-yachts, rockets, and spaceships."

look at this happy little fucker. i fenced in the perennials this year and the rabbits are starving but the bees are slurpin that good shit down. get on your knees, pray to god: the birds and the bees
