@sydneyleroux After Cape Verde’s exit, I can’t help but root for the remaining African-continent teams Morocco & Egypt to go as far as possible. 🤞🏽
Fascism does not arrive saying “I am fascism.” It arrives saying “law and order,” “border security,” “anti-woke,” “election integrity,” and “national emergency.”
Bryce Mitchell on Trump's White House UFC fight:
Our government is desecrating its role in society by entertaining sports. Our government is to protect and serve the people. Our tax dollars and resources are funding this operation. The government is supposed to protect us, not entertain us.
🚨🇬🇧🇨🇴Piers Morgan to Valentina Gomez:
"Shabana Mahmood was born in Birmingham, in England. She’s as English as I am. You, however, were born in Colombia. You weren’t born in the United States. So I would argue that Shabana Mahmood has much, much more validity to be considered English than you do to be American."
If imprisoning the child rapists will cause the system to collapse, we should just collapse the system and build a new one without the child rapists having power, money, or authority.

El astrofísico Neil deGrasse Tyson lo resume con datos que no admiten mucha discusión:
En la época de las cavernas, un ser humano vivía en promedio 30 años. Para 1840, la esperanza de vida apenas había subido a 35. Y eso que todo era “orgánico”: aire puro, agua sin procesar y animales de libre pastoreo.
Aun así, la gente moría joven.
Lo que realmente disparó la expectativa de vida no fue la “vida natural”, sino la ciencia: vacunas, antibióticos, saneamiento, tecnología médica y conocimiento acumulado.
Por eso las expectativas razonables deben alinearse con lo que muestra la evidencia científica.
Y si algo enseña la historia es esto: cada vez que confiamos en la evidencia, avanzamos; cada vez que la ignoramos, retrocedemos.
@TaliaGoodmanWBB@On3 While NIL & playing time are the default reasons to enter the portal, removing oneself from an unhealthy environment (mental, emotional, or physical) could also be a factor. Winning games or scoring a lot of pts doesn’t necessarily mean that it’s a good situation for a player.
Someone could go to school for 4 years and study aerospace engineering, then get a PhD with a dissertation related to orbital mechanics, and some instagram influencer who watched a youtube video will be like "actually that guy is wrong" on a topic related to space travel and people will believe them.
I'm not sure how we got here, but I hope we go back to a society where credibility is earned with rigorous training in the associated field, not by a popularity contest.
