I've come to the conclusion that these online nerds hate Ronaldo because he reminds them how fat sloppy and unnacomplished they are.
It's the revenge of the nerd phenomena - and why all the nerds like to flock to Messi's fanbase.
The greatest thing about this World Cup is that the notion that "Fifa favors Messi" has become a public consensus instead of being dismissed as the "opinion of Ronaldo fans"
Palestinian goalkeeper Salim Al-Ashqar was killed by Israeli forces in Gaza.
He had married five months earlier, and his wife is expecting their first child.
He is exactly who he thinks he is. English love to put down someone doing well and with a bit of confidence/arrogance. We’d be jealous if he was doing this for Spain/france. Was unreal last night.
After much reflection, I have decided to resign from my position as Director of the National Counterterrorism Center, effective today.
I cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran. Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation, and it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby.
It has been an honor serving under @POTUS and @DNIGabbard and leading the professionals at NCTC.
May God bless America.
How any Muslim can share the sacred time of iftar in Ramadan with these war criminals whose hands are dripping with the blood of the ummah is beyond me. Revolting.
If they can eliminate Ali Khamenei with surgical precision, why did they have to bomb the classrooms? Why murder the kids?
I didn’t want to return to this space. But after seeing over 80 schoolgirls killed today, hearing their families scream as they search frantically through rubble, I was pulled straight back to Gaza. There is something uniquely horrific about the killing of children.
At what point do we stop pretending this is collateral damage and recognize it clearly as the preferred tactic of the Jewish state?
There’s nothing I can say that hasn’t already been said. I’m not a reporter. I’m not a journalist. And none of this came as a surprise.
This is a war that Netanyahu himself openly demanded for decades. The escalation didn’t fall from the sky. It was built, speech by speech, policy by policy, threat by threat.
Everyone had the opportunity to make noise. To resist and refuse it. And yet here we are.
I don’t have analysis to offer. I have grief. And anger. And a refusal to pretend this was inevitable.
May Iran prevail against the enemies of humanity, and may Israel collapse into hell where they can finally meet their lord Ba’al and face the consequence of their devotion.
Bombing Iran in the middle of negotiations, while starving Cuba, while genociding Palestinians, while threatening to invade Greenland… the US and Israel are the single greatest threat to humanity and it’s not even close. We are all forced to live in the nightmare they create.
14 former international cricket captains including ex-England skippers Nasser Hussain and Mike Atherton have issued a humanitarian appeal for Imran Khan amid concern over his health in detention.
59 years ago, Muhammad Ali sacrificed the prime of his career rather than compromise his principles by standing against U.S. imperialism. American athletes today are cowards who are willing partners in genocide, covered in the stench of atrocity and completely unashamed.
