There were 11 reds handed out last season. We're barely two weeks in and already on #3.

Happy St. Patrick's Day, New York.

FULL TIME: Spirit 0, Thorns 1

Portland grabs a surprising three points on the road in the #NWSL season opener. The Thorns defended well and kept a potent Spirit attack at bay. That, plus getting Sophia Wilson back on the field officially = real positives for the Thorns to open 2026.

Civil rights figures like Jesse Jackson are why black feminists are theorized intersectionality: he might have forged a multi-racial coalition but black woman weren’t always in that coalition. Complicated man, complicated politics.

Jesse Jackson appeared on Sesame Street in 1973.

During his appearance, he led a group of children in reciting his well-known poem “I Am Somebody,” a message focused on self-worth and empowerment

The segment became one of the most memorable celebrity appearances from the early seasons of the show.

i think jesse jackson was one of the most important american political figures of the post-war era and i think that his 1984 and 1988 campaigns for the democratic nomination still have a great deal to teach about forging a path to a more egalitarian world. RIP.

The most recent episode of the Pitt just made me weep.

Invoking wealthy class solidarity to excuse sex crimes against children is sorta the Epstein Class in a nutshell

I think one of the best things about Bad Bunny’s performance is that it was so *specific*. It so clearly had a point of view coming from real lived experience and actual emotion, actual heart, not cynical calculation. Just beautiful.

Someone is going to write a dissertation about this half time show and I will read it.

Please donate to this vetted GFM to support Renee's wife and child. Not only will they have to worry about funeral expenses, but as the most powerful people in the country lie about her murder, her family will also probably face some legal costs.

People Magazine is incredibly clear eyed about ICE being a terrorist organization. I’ll probably buy a subscription because of it:

Mr. Rogers: Even though machines might move or sound like they're talking, they don't have feelings.

The wisdom of Mr. Rogers is eternal:

Here’s last year which is the one the comment was about. It’s so damn mild, he’s not ready for this year which includes the word fascism.

I heard that an uncle-in-law likes our holiday card but “could do without the politics” Guess who is turning up “the politics” even more from now on?

Just an idea for you to tweet (or whatever you use these days) An alternative strategy for limiting flights from major airports would be closing small (private jet) airports and sending those air traffic controllers to the main hubs. But that would impact private jets and that would be terrible.

Text from a friend:

I do love the idea that the Senate Dem leader likely voted for the same guy that Trump, Musk, and Stephen Miller endorsed.

Makes it very clear what the real sides are in this fight, and who's on which.

BREAKING: MAMDANI HAS WON according to Decision Desk

Women’s soccer faces plenty of serious threats. So why the panic about trans players? | Lesley Ryder Angel City’s Elizabeth Eddy was rebuked by her own teammates for an op-ed on trans players. It’s easy to understand their objections

"This harm is exponentially increased by the New York Post’s shameful decision to run Eddy’s op-ed with a photo of Banda, who like many athletes of color are frequently targeted by transphobic attacks. And Eddy’s own teammates know it."
