Regardless of whether it’s all talk, when the leader of our country expresses plainly genocidal intent, everyone has to do something.

For citizens of all political stripes, it means rejecting this madness. For Congress, it means taking action to rein him in. Now.

Like… We cannot go ahead and have the World Cup now like nothing is going on. Regardless of what does or doesn’t happen tonight. Countries should simply refuse to send teams. The rest of the world cannot treat us as a remotely normal country after this

Getting doubled up by UCLA in the Big Ten Championship clearly became a dark cloud that hung over Iowa in their tournament run.

They never looked like the regular season team we all knew and loved. I'm petty and now happy to have other teams share in our misery.

I thought I didn't care about who won today, but a UCLA win makes our B1G loss more palatable so, I guess go Bruins?

An infographic titled "ARTEMIS II Flight Path" detailing a 10-day, 685,000-mile trip around the Moon. The image shows a stylized figure-8 trajectory starting from Earth. Several orange orbital loops surround Earth, transitioning into a long "Outbound" path toward the Moon. The path loops behind the Moon and follows a blue "Return" line back to Earth. The Artemis program logo is in the top right corner against a backdrop of starry deep space.

Though clearly not to scale, this graphic provides a simplified visualization of the Artemis II mission route.

First big spring storm rolling in. Happy to see it, happy to be inside watching it roll through #IowaSpring

the US could have elected one of those children’s toys that makes farm animal noises when you pull a string and there’d be normal gas prices and airport wait times right now

The Men stole all our luck last night. It wasn't our fault!*

*fault excluding missed free throws, rushed shots, and tired arms forcing a play.

"Confused Hawkeye fans kept cheering for 'Clark', when she would hit a basket" - Lack of fan engagement contributes to Iowa home upset. An essay written by me, long time Iowa fan

I guarantee there's a thousand plus people in those stands "working from home" right now. Answering emails in timeouts and quarter breaks. Hoping the camera doesn't cut to them lolol

I've turned it off in case that helps my Hawkeyes score 🤞. Also because that broadcast was painful

I don't know what we call it in basketball, but best possible use of VAR.

Is there a foul? Was the ball in her hand when the clock hit 0.0? Best possible uses of replay. #NCAAW

I'm going to turn off my TV for the third quarter, but C'mon Hawks! Don't let the heat* get to you! #NCAAW #MarchMadness

*both metaphorical and literal in this case

Sad to see the Ides of March becoming commercialised like this. I really feel like we're losing track of the true spirit of the holiday. It's not about how many knives you can stick in a tyrant all at once, it's about the whole community coming together to stab the tyrant as many times as possible.

Have we tried turning them off and back on again?

I don't know how you do a full reboot during halftime, but we need one!

Big Congrats to my adopted Iowa hometown!

The Johnston Girls basketball team didn't just win State tonight, they kept a 79-0 three year winning streak alive!

I was sad to miss it, but I wanted to go to team trivia with friends. Sounds like I was better off not watching.

I hate how poorly phrased these things are. Most of us don't know or care what any given bill is named.

Senate votes 52-48 to back Trump in continuing War actions against Iran.

Nomenclature only matters afterwards. In the meantime, US military forces are murdering innocent civilians.
