It’s as if this entire tournament has been designed to punish supporters

the NCAA women's tournament getting Red Panda and the NCAA men's tournament getting the Chainsmokers is a great example of how toxic masculinity harms men too

The 80s contain multitudes

Fact-Checking the Debate Over the Republican Voting Bill

Fact checking fraud claims: Heritage Foundation claims 1,620 cases of voter fraud from 1982-2025, including 100 cases of noncitizens voting. That's about 0.000008% of more than 1.3 bn votes cast at that time. We also know that nearly all the fraudulently cast votes were for Trump.

I know this is an obvious thing to say but we should talk more about what a racist this guy is. He’s as racist as George Wallace or Strom Thurmond but unlike them he often escapes having racism mentioned as a leading cause for all his decisions.

“Name Image, and Likeness: Past Battles, Present Complexities, and the Future of College Sports”

The president, who drones on about protecting women’s sports, publicly mocked the women’s gold-medal hockey team. A reminder this was never about protecting women’s sports and it was always about transphobia and misogyny.

Michael Scott level attempt to win hearts and minds

Exactly my reaction. I appreciate how well made it was. It must be hard to sustain a sense of tension for two hours with such a low stakes story. But I will never see it again and kind of wish I’d done something else with my 2.5 hours

Normalize laughing derisively in men's faces when they deserve it.

What is the “equal time rule” and why did CBS enforce it?

Student debt is a generational injustice. Why are we squeezing graduates harder than the super-rich? | Gaby Hinsliff Reform of this stealth tax is long overdue – and with it, a shake-up of the whole university system, says Guardian columnist Gaby Hinsliff

They won’t let the science stop them from doing nazi style purges of trans folks from public life. It’s never been about evidence or data.

U.S. government has lost more than 10,000 STEM Ph.D.s since Trump took office A Science analysis reveals how many were fired, retired, or quit across 14 agencies

Wow. This is devastating.

“The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.”

Never change, AFCON

Koh: Trump has now spent $30 billion from the last bill for 10,000 more I.C.E. Agents that are going to be on the streets. That $30 billion would cover all the ACA subsidies for a year. It would eliminate all co-pays for prescription drugs for people from a year, and eliminate all medical debt.

The Supreme Court will hear two cases today challenging state bans on transgender athletes.
These bans are about erasure. Not fairness.

Twitter is owned by a fascist, Facebook and the Washington Post have gone MAGA, and now CBS News is about to be turned into far-right state TV. Here’s why America has a liberal media bias problem.

Minnesota department finds child care centers targeted in viral video operating normally The state Department of Children, Youth, and Families said it visited the nine facilities at the center of right-wing claims of fraud and found them "operating as expected."

Minnesota’s Department of Children, Youth, and Families said that investigators have found child care centers at the center of recent fraud allegations were operating as they should.

Thinking this is wrong is not radical.
Thinking it isn’t is.

What about Gose (beer)?

Total buyouts for 15 fired coaches in 2025: $228 million. That's a record by nearly $100M. Kelly $54M Stoops $38M Smith $33.5M Napier $21M Freeze $15.8M Gundy $15M Wilcox $10.9M Pittman $9.8M Franklin $9M Pry $6M Foster $5M Bray $4M Dilfer $2.4M Beck $1.7M Norvell $1.5M

This year, universities are giving $228 million to football coaches who failed at coaching football so that they won't coach football anymore.

Opinion | Trump and MAGA’s rules of civility only apply to their critics A recent report found more than 600 people faced sanctions for speech after Charlie Kirk's killing. But the president and his supporters put no limits on their own incendiary words, says Anthony L. Fi...

Over 600 people were sanctioned for comments made after Charlie Kirk's killing. (One man spent 37 days in jail for sharing a meme about Republicans' indifference to gun violence.)

But Trump can implicitly threaten to hang Democratic members of Congress and it's old news before the weekend's over.

Could the Epstein Files kerfuffle take down Trump? Sure, maybe. Which could end up with Russell Vought and Steve Miller transferring allegiance to a MJT or Tucker Carlson or whomever. Don't take your eye off the big picture. It's the fascism, stupid.

I lost a job for calling Charlie Kirk a Nazi, but this is cool.
