“We’re a war country. All the people here are indoctrinated from their youth to be aggressive, to be numb to it” Really great reporting by @barneyronay.bsky.social on how American’s homeless have been pushed out of sight, mind and heart during the World Cup. www.theguardian.com/football/202...
‘Where did they go?’: homeless people feel force of America’s brutality in World Cup clean-upFifa says football brings the world together but the unhoused in Atlanta feel targeted and completely excluded from the tournamentwww.theguardian.comSignificantly less shocking, but I counted 18 Argentina jerseys on this morning’s 40-minute run.

Ella BrockwayI know it’s only been a few days, but I think the legacy of this USMNT World Cup will not be the red card nor the Belgium performance but the Stars and Stripes home shirt. Saw eight (!) of them on a 40-minute run through Central Park today. A genuine hit!
