OHIO: “Ohio universities' new centers to combat "liberal bias" aren't popular with students, so a Republican leader wants to require attendance…” 🤔

MEN IN BLAZERS: “A lot of 🇺🇸 fans are self-justifying, saying it shouldn’t have been a red card, justice has been done… that’s not how ⚽️ works. It’s delusion… think about how many unjust decisions have gone down — is this where we are? Politicians can phone a friend?”

It’s amazing to me how the moment the bottom of their food bowls become exposed, the remaining kibbles — no matter how many there are — become seen as tainted, and the bowl is effectively empty. #CatsOfMastodon #RipleyAndJonesy

#Switzerland bolted 5,000 #solar panels onto a dam wall 8,000 feet up in the freezing Alps where everyone said solar made no sense, and the plant now makes three times more winter power than any farm down in the valleys https://www.ecoportal.net/en/switzerland-5000-alpine-solar-muttsee-dam-winter-power/28487/ #Solarpunk

Trump Asks #FIFA to Review US Player’s Suspension. Now He Can Play
For the 1st time since 1962, FIFA's reversed a red card decision during the World Cup.

#FIFA Prez Gianni Infantino's been kissing up Trump, so ez call by The Grifter.
Saw the incident & the instant replay.
Not a soccer expert, but Balogun forcefully threw his whole body against Muharemović, which to a novice like me looked like a dangerous, risky move likely to cause injury. Is that allowed in #soccer?

This 4th of July, I am angry and dismayed. I'm disgusted by our federal government generally and particularly by its absurd approach to commemorating 250 years of American history. I'm horrified by the Republican Fascist control of the federal government and numerous state governments.
But this just means that I am indeed observing the Fourth. It is precisely because I'm keenly aware and appreciative of the Declaration of Independence that I can't help the anger, dismay, disgust, and horror. 1/
