Enzo Fernandez has 7 (SEVEN) black French teammates at Chelsea and is on contract until at least 2030 alongside most of them, genuinely the dumbest footballer of all time.

Witnessing my first polycule breakup from the sidelines, I don't know how you polyamorous folk do it

Surviving an assassination and forcing a public Biden appearance? He really can't lose.

It's wild how the UK still has FPTP despite having multiple third parties with double digit percentages. It's not even like America where 95% vote D or R, Labour and the Tories are on 55% combined.

I'm adding buttons to the underside of my fightstick

Someone in the bodybuilding community posting about politics

It's not about Jordan Peterson

They also banned Kobayashi for not signing an exclusive contract lmao
