As a #Blackhawks fan, I'm grateful to the St. Louis Blues organization for taking such a strong, unapologetic stance against antisemitism.
All the 1926 expansion teams are playing at home.
I don't think it's by accident, considering the year and dates.
I think it's time everyone remembers one thing:
If a terrorist attack similar in proportion to October 7 in Israel occurred in the United States, it would mean terrorists killing around 44,000 Americans in the span of just several hours.
Basically, 9/11 times 14.
If reports that the extension mostly benefited Lula voters due to voting machines in Bolsonaro constituencies having already been turned off are substantiated, I do think a new vote ought to be held.
This matter is worth investigating. Free and fair elections are indispensible.
As President of the Experiments Division of the Jewish World Order, I am proud to announce that Operation Enslave the Minds of the Goyim is underway!
We will use state-of-the-art mind control beams to influence people to think that Jews are stupid and NOT behind everything! 🤣🤣

Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado announced she has returned to Venezuela after nearly ten months in exile, posting on X:
"I am here. With you."
Why am I the kind of person who conducts fairly extensive historical and geographical analysis to determine that Anastasia, in her eponymous Don Bluth film, was likely set to process herring in Strelna before setting off on her adventure?
I'm bored, so I listened to "Chinese Food", performed by Alison Gold, to determine how Chinese the food mentioned actually is.
Ten distinct dishes are named in the song. Five of those dishes are not Chinese in origin.
Panda Express is also mentioned. Disqualifying on its own.
I just remembered that Patrice Wilson (writer of "Friday" and "Chinese Food", among other songs) exists.
Is it just me, or did he come off as a total creep lmfao

We know how much it matters to live in a country where our rights are protected, where the law applies equally to everyone, and where the majority can’t just decide that some people don’t deserve the same freedoms. The safety and freedom we’ve found in America didn’t happen by accident. They exist because of democracy. And protecting democracy means protecting Jewish safety, too.
We know what happens when those protections start to break down. When courts are weakened, elections are undermined, and people lose equal protection under the law, minorities are often the first to pay the price. Jews have seen this throughout our history. It’s one of the reasons so many of our families sought refuge in democratic countries.
That’s why I find it so alarming to see what’s happening right now. When masked government agents are taking people off the streets and citizens are being shot in public, we should all be worried about where things are headed. As Jews, we know that when a government starts targeting certain groups of people, no one should assume they’re safe from what comes next.
Mike Rogers has chosen to align himself with a movement that is willing to attack our democracy. He stood with Trump and refused to accept the results of the 2020 election. And now we’re seeing what happens when a political movement treats the rights and dignity of certain people as disposable. For Jews, these things should set off alarm bells.
Jewish safety is tied to the health of our democracy. We can’t protect one without protecting the other. And in this Senate race, Abdul is the candidate who understands that and is willing to fight for it.

I have no idea how this post reached my feed, but I just love how this person is all like "your team's players expressed sympathy for israeli civilians murdered in a terrorist attack; OWNED" lmao

There is absolutely room for a hockey culture that values and honors the history and tradition of the game above all else while also being accepting of and accommodating to new fans and refusing to tolerate abuse.
I believe that this is the best way forward for the game we love.
I really do think the advent of "Heated Rivalry" generated an influx of new hockey fans who react in disbelief to the revelation that hockey players, many of whom grew up in suburban and rural environments, don't share the same progressive and cosmopolitan values they hold.
I've always been emphatic about this: I am absolutely not against growing the game. I enthusiastically support doing so.
But this should be done in as judicious a manner as possible; namely, encouraging new fans to elevate themselves to our level instead of stooping to theirs.
