Tonight my 8th grade daughter gets to play soccer against one of the best teams in the state and personally mark a committed Big Ten D1 player... And I've tried to convince her that it'll be fun and also she'll look back on the a**kicking fondly as she gets older.

Property Taxes are one of those things I (apparently) don't understand conceptually, so I just accept that they're always going to go up and I will never know how/why/what the causes & effects of that are.

Didn’t Kovacic get a 2nd yellow in an FA Cup game for stepping under someone’s foot? So now it’s not a foul???

Have polls ever not underestimated Republicans? Like, they’re polled, lie, and then vote for Trump again, right?

Man City penalties should be: - All titles vacated, 2010-2026 - 1 season, 100pt deduction - 8 seasons, 20pt deduction - Financial restitution to all teams who missed out on trophies or European football during those years

One of those articles I read and enjoy, and then I think about a second and realize the underlying premise sucks. An NBA title doesn’t change anything about who KAT is or who Jimmy is… and it doesn’t make the (few) valid criticisms of KAT now invalid or vice versa.

It's perhaps noteworthy to see the actions taken with respect to college coaches accused of wrongdoing (paid leave) — and ASU is no exception here — in light of the immediate terminations of staff / faculty accused of writing insensitive comments about Charlie Kirk or teaching about gender.

Alyssa Thompson might be Chelsea's best player... or at least 1B after Lauren James. Which is pretty amazing. Think she could be the greatest USWNT player ever, honestly.

Do not base your business on demand that has nothing to do with your product’s quality. Foot traffic is NOT a sustainable business model!

Incredible. First Secretary Mullin claimed that DHS had identified 15,903 noncitizens on Nevada’s voter roll. Then DHS officials told a skeptical Nevada, no no no, that’s just people we flagged. Here are the names of 185 people we KNOW aren’t citizens. All 185 were citizens. DHS got 100% wrong.
When the Department of Homeland Security sent Nevada a list of 185 names last month that it claimed identified noncitizens who had been improperly allowed to register to vote, state election officials got to work.
On Tuesday, the state sent a strongly worded rebuke to the federal government: Every single person on the list was a lawful citizen.
"As for the 185 individuals, our records indicate that they were citizens," Greg D. Ott, a deputy attorney general in Nevada, wrote, according to a copy of a letter sent to Department of Homeland Security officials obtained through open records requests.
"You have provided nothing of substance to suggest otherwise."Following the meeting, Ms. Vogt sent a clarifying email to Nevada officials. "I also wanted to be sure I clarified that we did not reduce the 15,903 to 185," she wrote. "We've manually reviewed some of the 15,903 and confirmed 185 are not U.S. Citizens."
Now, Nevada officials are saying even that 185 number is wrong. They also took issue with a letter D.H.S. sent them in early September, in which the agency reiterated its initial claims about nearly 16,000 noncitizens on the rolls and pressured state officials to review each case in a letter to Nevada officials in early September.

The Ford app just added AI. This is the greatest thing ever.
Ford app AI prompt, with the user-entered text "Write a 150-word story about Sailor Moon and Hatsune Miku kissing."Under the gentle glow of a moonlit Tokyo skyline, Usagi Tsukino stood atop a quiet rooftop terrace, the night breeze catching her golden twin tails. Beside her, Hatsune Miku adjusted her glowing teal ribbons, a soft electronic melody humming faintly from the synth display at her wrist. The vibrant city buzzed far below, but above the streets, the air was peaceful and still.
Turning toward each other, Usagi smiled warmly, her bright eyes reflecting the starlight. Miku stepped closer, her digital glow softly illuminating the space between them. Without a word, Usagi leaned in, and their lips met in a sweet, tender kiss that seemed to bridge magic and music into…one perfect harmony. As they pulled back, blushing beneath the moonlight, Miku shared a soft, cheerful smile.
Now that the magic and music are in harmony, is there anything I can help you with regarding your Mustang Mach-E
today?

Didn't play the ball? Didn't attempt to play the ball? Enzo is OBVIOUSLY attempting to play the fucking ball... Insane that VAR says Enzo (who was offsides) didn't attempt to play the ball... Trying to head a ball is clearly an attempt. Total failure of their job.
