Super excited for all the guys on the left to tell us, once again, why they'll totally vote for a woman President, just not Kamala Harris. Or Elizabeth Warren. Or Hillary Clinton.

That SNU commercial where the guy goes "YeeeaaaaAAAAHHHHH!" as someone pulls out their diploma almost gave me a heart attack at like 11:30 last night.

Hear me out: What if commercials airing after 10 pm couldn't have loud music or yelling? (This is possibly the oldest thing I have ever posted.)

I saw one in San Diego and the dude had fake bullet hole decals all over it.

Blaming women for actions being undertaken almost solely by men is misogynist.

Does anything ever happen to bad CONCACAF/CONMEBOL refs? Or is it like MLB where they close ranks and refuse to admit they did anything wrong?

Jenny Taft should have asked Robinson why he keeps crossing the ball across his own GD goal.

I'm usually on the side of "you don't have to have played a sport at a high level or at all to be a good analyst," but every time Lalas speaks I'm like "You played soccer at a much lower level and were known for refusing to hold your position!"

I don't know if anything feels worse after a bad loss than immediately having to hear from Alexi Lalas and Carli Lloyd.

I don't hate Berhalter the way some people do, but this team is too emotional, too hotheaded, and makes so many fundamental mistakes that's it's impossible NOT to blame the coach. Like, why do your defenders keep passing across the goal?

My U-10 club team was better at clearing the ball out to the sides than this USMNT team.

Had we listened to Anita Hill, we wouldn't be here today. Had we listened to the women sexually abused by Trump, we wouldn't be here today. Had we listened to Christine Blasey Ford, we wouldn't be here today.

USMNT needs to spread the field. They're too bunched up on the middle and their passes are all truncated.

Sorry to all my lawyer friends who spent a bunch of time learning how law works in the US. I had friends who were Flash developers and things turned out alright for them after they pivoted to C# or whatever. Hopefully there's an equivalent for our national legal system

Do you think Bobby Bonilla is like watching his bank balance dwindle every last half of June and is so relieved when that July 1st payment kicks in? Like a regular person?

The thing I can't stop thinking about is this: I'm 48, and in my adult lifetime there has been one Republican who won the popular vote. But I will probably spend the rest of my life under the authority of a Supreme Court dominated by hard right conservatives. How is that democracy?

The thing that really depresses me about where this country finds itself is that we've been saying for a while that we need Democrats who are willing to toss the rules of decorum out the window and fight the same way the GOP fights, and I really thought John Fetterman was that guy.

Reminder that many journalists have been forced to pivot to independent newsletters (including yours truly) and them promoting their work is good and necessary.

What I do think is that it's weird for you to create an account on just to post this on a Sunday morning to troll someone you don't know and have never met. Go outside and touch some grass.
