Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Never give a known liar the benefit of the doubt.

“The difference between stupidity and genius is that genius has its limits.”

Sitting here in limbo waiting for the dice to roll

I swear, each month of 2025 will have its own history degree.

Usually wrong but never in doubt

Let’s delete this post and never speak of this again.

Text STOP to opt out of updates on war plans.

Innocent people do not delay justice.

Oh FFS you might as well trust a 6-year-old with a flamethrower.

Anyone who bans teaching American history has no right to shape America’s future.

Today’s gop: why go just far enough when too far is right there?

“Everybody’s entitled to be an idiot.”

Republican speaker of the house Mike Johnson is the bland and smiling face of evil.

“But what about the lurkers?”

Someone should tell Republicans that violence is the last refuge of the incompetent, or possibly the first.

Those who are easily outraged are easily manipulated.

A democracy can’t function when people can’t distinguish facts from lies.

Take hopelessness and turn it into resilience.

Roe is not about choice. It is about freedom.

This must be what justice looks like, not vengeful, just peaceful exuberance.

Beware of advice from anyone for whom Democrats are “they” and not “we.”

Republicans cannot even be trusted with their own money.

They love authoritarianism, but only when they get to be the authoritarians.

Optimism opens the door to great things.

    Chile, all class that lot.

    Speaking of class and wonderful spontaneous celebration, here are the Icelanders getting their street dance on now that the knockout rounds are on. (it’s really fun)

    To add to the fun the Irish brought their celebration to the round of 16 as well turning one street into a bullring and then for the second time in the past two weeks, performing some street-side car repair as the rest of the gang found a beautiful girl to serenade and we remember the love they showed to grandma and grandpa ahead of the Sweden match in Paris.

    Slainte!

    Chile!

    Now the game is delayed for 30 minutes? Anybody knows what is going to happen if they can’t resume it tonight?

    When the World Cup was in the US some years ago, the Brazilian team was based in Los Gatos, CA. It’s kind of a party town anyway, with several bars along the main drag. With the Brazilians there, it was nuts.

    @Onkel Fritze: If it’s lightning there may be a 20-minute delay after the all-clear is sounded. So depends on when those clouds we saw in the opening panoramic shot of the stadium pass through.

    @Onkel Fritze: Sorry, I can only assume that if the match is suspended it will be re-started as soon as possible the following day but that can also be dependent on how much time has passed. This suspension happened at halftime so they will re-start from halftime when the weather allows. That could be in an hour or tomorrow, but they will play the second half.

    If they can’t play it tonight, it’ll be restarted at 2pm local time. In a normal league match, it’d probably be an abandonment and a replay (which would suck for Chile) but tournament rules apply here.

    There we go again. The wet pitch is not going to work to Colombia’s advantage, having to catch up 2 goals. My commentators here on Colombian TV are currently going nuts, saying that should have been a penalty.
