Just crazy skill. She’s already recognized as incredibly good, the broadcast announcers did a good job making that clear, but this is the kind of stuff you show to people who aren’t yet fans or who are skeptical of women’s soccer. 

“poverty and hate groups go hand in hand” - citation needed

Hate groups actively target military, both planting their members inside and going after people who’ve just left and are transitioning back to civilian life. Statistically they only get a tiny amount, but it’s very significant nonetheless. 

Wait, is this an intentional parody account? 

It’s an SCO summit. Are you banking on no one knowing what that is? 

Táim an tuirseach.

Had a good friend like that. Ate well, exercised regularly, stayed fat. I think by most metrics he was and probably still is healthier than me. When we met I was stick thin, partly because I was 20 and partly because I’d did martial arts for years and kept up some home work-outs.

I think, maybe, you could argue the oil revenue is important enough to the state to fund climate change resiliency projects. But at best, that’s a pretty weak argument (maybe a stronger case for under-developed oil/natural gas dependent states internationally).

The mainstream media is usually helpless in the face of intentional dishonesty and bad faith. Nice for a brief minute and a half to see they weren’t, though how brief it was shows how deep the cultural and systemic issues run.

This username and comment check out. Sometimes you see a terrible username that just thoroughly predicts the awful content of someone’s comments. 

Note, here’s one of the intellectually dishonest tricks people like Shapiro and his defenders use. I call him a liar and accuse of him of that because he does so constantly. To avoid that, you arbitrarily limit things to this statement, as if his repeated paeans to fake racist history and bigoted statements can just…

I always forget he’s a Harvard grad. I went to a small private liberal arts school, so I’m middle of the stuffiness order I suppose, but I’m startled by people like Shapiro when I compare them to some of my worst professors, ones who weren’t very good at teaching, and realize they probably had more intellectual rigor…

This whole “normalize the guy who’s incredibly racist against Muslims and Arabs” thing is really fucked up. You don’t let David Duke on your podcast. Shapiro’s similarities far outweigh his differences with someone like Duke, right down to their toxic milieu.

Nothing Ben Shapiro says has any value unless willfully misinforming the public to support far-right ideology is your goal. That is the only way in which he is valuable. Otherwise, he’s startlingly incompetent. He cites random fringe studies faster than you have a chance to rebut and then has an entire website to brag…

Gonna dismiss trolls with brand new burners posting nonsense, just FYI. 

That was a real goal. Gonna assume you’re a troll, because that’s a really fucking stupid comment. 

Wasn’t it that they started a new funding drive and let people redirect it, and then did the “non-profit” route? 

Some of those celebrations that people are taking issue with were from first-time World Cup players. Lavelle and Pugh I had my eye on because I occasionally watch my local-ish team (the Washington Spirit). Can I blame Pugh for celebrating her first ever World Cup goal in her first start at the highest level, at age…

Thailand is something like 34th in Fifa rankings. They’re bad, because women’s soccer is very much developing in much of the world, but they’re hardly an amateur side.

Good riddance. Every single one of these white-nationalist cretins and their bullshit claims about an imaginary “Western Civilization” merit contempt.
