 More security issues in the stands. Worst #CopaAmerica ever. 

Who would have thought the US could ruin football too?

#LFC 
 Lucho Diaz's 10-men team defeat Uruguay and advance to the #CopaAmerica final!  It's gonna be Lucho v Macca on Sunday!

#LFC 
 Bad ref decision against USMNT. Should choose better when to stop the game flow.

#CopaAmerica 
 Mac Allister was given a rest tonight (as well as Messi and other senior argie players, in wait for the knockout stage). Their presence wasn't needed as their playing mates still had a good night helping their team advance comfortably as leaders of Group A. Argentina 2 - 0 Peru

 Biden squarely on the wrong side of history.

Look who are your new allies, Dems!

 Jeremy Corbyn has been expelled from the other conservative party.

Starmer with a little help from the far right Israel lobby accomplished what Thatcher never could.

 @4d2facee 

Or put another way, there's no way in hell all those American women will put up with American men. 

Makes sense. 
 It's not every day that 120 human rights organisations have to scold the "leader of the free world"

Such a massive stain for Biden, the champion of Netanyahu's genocide.

 In a serious world there would be room in The Hague for Biden and Blinken too, who only just last week kept giving material support for genocide to war criminal Netanyahu.

 It's a two way race now.

Apart from the physical exertion of the players, it's possible that Jürgen Klopp miscalculated the magnitude of the emotional impact of his departure in the middle of an already emotionally exhausting season.

 Do you know what were Sadio Mané's numbers in 2020-2021 across all competitions?
16 goals, 8 assists.

Do you know what are Darwin Núñez's numbers in 2023-2024 across all competitions?
18 goals, 13 assists.

Just so we are clear in case your numeracy is lacking, 18 is a bigger number than 16, and 13 is a bigger number than 8.

Just admit that your hate is stupid and irrational, learn arithmetic, or turn off the TV, it makes you very stupid.

#LFC 
 Good that I had to work and I didn't make an extra effort to watch the game.

Now hopefully Liverpool will be able to focus on the title race and win it, that's all I've cared about for the last three weeks.

We just don't have a squad prepared to compete in all competitions, the breakthrough of the youngsters was amazing, but it's foolishness to demand consistency from teenagers, and the rest of the squad is overworked.

I'm relieved that Jürgen Klopp won't be tarnishing his legacy.

 What a Saturday, there was even time for a Dirk Kuyt bicycle attempt 🤣

Controlled opposition. 
 A kitten dies every time you parrot again stupid remarks lionising the Luddites instead of seizing the means of production to turn them against your oppressors.

That's one of the things North American-wide McCarthyism does to you. 
 I forgot how everyone in mainland Europe thinks I am a bloke until they meet me cause of my name.... 
 @85d96c1f 

I distrust people who only know Jean-Claude Van Damme. 
 After all and AFAICS, the backbone of the current Liverpool incarnation has two main vertebrae:  Endo and Mac Allister.  Nothing works quite the same when either of them are unavailable.

 Nyoni is so incresibly young! What an amazing time for the kid and for Liverpool!

 TVE (the Spanish public TV service) spent 10 minutes justifying genocide on Christmas Day in a promotional puff interview with a Spanish-speaking military press officer for the IDF

No, we're still not remotely there.  Humans with too much power controlling them are the gravest danger right now. 
 Not AI as it is currently understood and implemented but rather the potential, I should say. And....

AI doesn't give me a pause, the humans who have too much power handling it give me a pause.

I love Dvořák, obviously a fan of Symphony No. 9. 
 @a0b872c9 

1. Part of me is disgusted that they would do it in front of kids and other people who didn't consent.

2. Part of me is disgusted that the more statistically representative band of goons of the GOP Nazis are apparently never caught on camera, but a grown-up consenting woman does it once in a hundred years, and it's the woman that all puritans, GOP and Dem alike, are outraged.

 @5c47d752 @a0b872c9 

When it comes to transparency in politics, that's one extremely transparent way to issue a clear threat. 
 @f8d9bc1c 

Well you also can't have a president with a presidential team of advisors who are a band of gangsters and dozens of representatives and senators who are a threat to national security.

But that's what you have had there, and to some degree you still have.

Sorry about that, hope things improve for you.

I was only bringing up that New Labour these days can't be considered real opposition, more like a complementary Red Tory party.

 I mean, it took me like 5 seconds to find this one. It doesn't look like a very well tested system.
