Last week, leading up to IRN vs USA in the World Cup, a clip of Tyler Adams in a press conference went viral. Adams gave a brilliant response in a bizarre situation with geopolitical ramifications unfair to place on a 23 year old athlete, and the resulting praise was warranted.🧵

Before refusing to take out too strong a position on Justice Thomas, figure out where you stand on Supreme Court justices being bought (that’s bad, I think?!) and then… maybe just… apply that stance equally to whoever it applies to?

If your QAnon ass actually believed Wayfair was selling kids in armoires and got all psychotically sAvE tHe cHiLdReN over it, today’s a great day to educate yourself on the very real fact that guns are the leading cause of death among children in the US and do something about it.

Put this in your little tweet next time: all extremist killings identified in 2022 were linked to right-wing extremism, with an especially high number linked to white supremacy.
Quote Tweet
NEW from @lwhitehurst: The number of U.S. mass killings linked to extremism over the past decade was at least three times higher than the total from any other 10-year period since the 1970s, according to a report by the Anti-Defamation League. apnews.com/article/homici

I don’t think needing a tampon is a sign of weakness, but I do think rushing to defend an unfunny man who doesn’t even know you exist as “actually hilarious” probably is.
