Oh South Africa! This is turning upside down. A full match, hey?! Spain has worked to get back into this game but I really do want #BanyanaBanyana to score again. #ESPRSA #FIFAWWC
So much that has worked to South African team’s advantage is also what has led to them conceding two penalties and a player sent off. #FIFAWWC #ESPRSA
And another goal for Spain. #ESPRSA #FIFAWWC

Fucking hell every time I see commercials with little girls watching women play football and getting all inspired, I am fighting those fucking tears. Stop doing that to me! Stop it!
Remember - this is just the 8th FIFA women’s World Cup. First one was 1991. I just saw one of the South Korean players say in an interview that when she was growing up, there was no World Cup for women. Definitely not when I was growing. So, yeah. Those fucking tears #FWWC
I rarely share ads but if you want to send me any particularly heart-mushing ones of girls and football, I’ll go to my quiet corner and watch and happily cry. #FWWC

World Cup 2019 kicks off in 30 minutes!
#FWWC
#FRAKOR about kicksoff for FIFA 8th Women’s World. I’ll be tweeting matches & sharing reax. #France, the host, considered a strong contender. In this group also are #Nigeria and #Norway. Big shout out to my sisters from Naija, the Super Falcons, one of 3 African teams in #FWWC
Saw #FRA play in the quarter final in 2015 World Cup - they look stronger this time around, buoyed I’m sure by home crowd. #FRAKOR

So many white male editors in US media go out of their way to remind us they are gatekeepers of patriarchy - whether it’s in who they hire/don’t hire, who they publish/don’t publish, and the predators they often protect and enable.
And then we spend days raging on social media, jumping through misogynist hoops trying to prove them wrong e.g. when I read that Goldberg comment I was like fuck you I’ve written 2 books, total word count 140k words. The simpler version is just fuck you.

What one needs to know for understanding Vox and the Spanish elections result.
A longish thread.
#Spain, #spainelections, #vox_es
From Franco's death until 1982, Spanish conservatism was represented by the Unión de Centro Democrático (UCD), an offshoot of modern Francoism, which managed to steer Spain firmly in a democratic direction.
Part of the UCD's success during re-democratization was the fact that Spanish political conservatism did not risk being outflanked on the right by electorally significant anti-system parties like the Italian MSI or the Greek Ethniki Parataxis.

I have reached a whole new level of #PISSEDOFF.

I didnt think such a #dark and #scary state, or level, could be reached. It may top 12-14-17's causation. It's. That. Bad. So, I've prepared a statement...

#PascoSheriff #HaveYouAllNoShame @CigarCityBeer
Dear @FBI,
I must implore you ask your colleauges in @FBITampa to help research this new level of #PISSEDOFFNESS. As locals, they may offer a special indepth knowledge of this new level I have reached. This is not fair & law enforcement must #investigate. No one deserves this.
This is my #apogee of #Pissedoffness.
If #motherfuckers & #tears werent a noticable level.
If #HUSH or #INTIMIDATION tactics being deployed didnt strike a chord.
If #EVIDENCE, PROOF, or 30k Bonds didnt #WOW YOU.
If posting mom with no shred of investigatable value wasnt enough...

South Africa votes through motion to seize land from white farmers without compensation!

This is what the Democrats want in the US. They want Trump out so they can complete their plans.

Redistribution of land. The people who work hard for their land now have it stripped from them to give to the poor. Once everyone is poor, government has all the power. How can anyone not see this for what it is?

South Africa‘s parliament has passed a motion that could lead to the seizure of land from white farmers without paying them compensation.
