Why are metro police budgets high even after years of activism? In a new paper, @taransamarth.bsky.social and I use original survey data from six U.S. metro areas to test one explanation: suburban voters are willing to use their taxes to fund police in the urban core: doi.org/10.1177/1532...

I’m glad time has vindicated Sebulba. Everyone was so cruel to him because he “tried to kill a child” during the Boonta Eve Classic even though he was literally Darth Vader

So you put water and ice in the red thing then it flows into that wrap, which expands and contracts around your leg and it feels so goddam good. It reduces swelling but imagine like an ice massage

The image is of a four panel comic.
In panel one, we see a crow’s face. It says, “I AM DEATH’S MESSENGER”.
In panel two, we see the same crow’s face. It continues, “YOUR TIME IS NEAR”.
In panel four, we see the crow awkwardly hopping away from a stick figure.
In panel five, we see the grim reaper with the crow perched on his hand. The grim reaper says, “So you should probably fly away dramatically instead.”

The story of Cavan Sullivan is a story about American soccer idols, and by extension, a story about American soccer itself, both the good and the bad. 20 years after Freddy Adu, American soccer has its prodigy. For @scoutedftbl.com, the tales we weave about Cavan and all that came before (🎁 link):

Two decades after Freddy Adu, the United States finally has a new soccer icon. Now the nation must learn how to cope with the superstar it's craved.

They are becoming more and more explicit that creating dossiers on you and graphing your relationships is the whole point. “Agents” indeed. www.cnbc.com/2026/10/07/m...
Former Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer is taking a try-before-you-buy approach with her new photo-centric AI agent startup Dazzle, a tactic she said is important “for those occasional users or those users who are just trying to see what the service can do at the very beginning.”

Dazzle analyzes users’ personal photos to understand aspects of their lives, such as their family members or interests, and then can take actions like reminding someone that a pair of shoes they recently looked up is on sale online.

It’s a strategy she learned from her early tenure at Google
, before the company built its market-leading online ad platform.

Fingers crossed it stays that way lol. The last two they want you up and moving and bending like two days later but this one is straight leg for a wk, then start the PT. I think bc it’s arthroscopic now it ends up being easier? I dunno but it doesn’t feel like my leg is in a vise like the last two
