I saw a video of man accompanying his partner while she went jogging, driving behind her to make sure she was safe.

I genuinely don’t understand how we are supposed to casually process that a glacier literally collapsed in Nepal, erasing 19 bridges and killing over 600 people, because the planet is too hot. And instead of stopping it, billionaires are building more data centres. It is completely psychotic.

Argentina needs to get off their arse and play. Messi is not the only player in the team. #wc

Everyone says FIFA favors Messi… Joe says it’s actually Ronaldo. Trevor: This tournament has a lot of people feeling like it’s scripted. Trevor: There are many people who feel like Argentina and Lionel Messi are the darlings of FIFA… and Infantino does everything in his power to make sure they have an easy path in the tournament. Joe: I disagree. Trevor: You disagree because you love Messi. Joe: No, I disagree because of facts. Argentina was supposed to play either Spain or Uruguay… but Uruguay bottled it. Football isn’t scripted. The big teams mess up. Argentina takes care of business. Joe: So now, when you talk about Messi… this is going to sound biased, but if anything… Joe: FIFA favors Ronaldo. Trevor: Wow. Joe: Ronaldo got a red card before the World Cup. He was supposed to have an automatic three-match ban. Joe: But what did FIFA do? They gave him one match and suspended the other two. Trevor: You’re right. We’ve never had a suspended sentence in football. Cristiano Ronaldo is the first recipient. Joe: Imagine if Messi had received that preferential treatment.
