Another F’ing fan incident in Indianapolis. Hard to keep claiming it’s not a Fever fan problem when it’s always happening there.

In Massachusetts, we have a responsibility to protect the vulnerable and stand up for those who need it. We don’t throw trans kids under the bus for political points. We protect them—and all of our neighbors—because trans rights are human rights.

"maybe Scrooge was right" Scrooge wasn't real! He was invented specifically for the purpose of being wrong!

Lifetime ban, please and thank you. At this point the WNBA has to admit they’ve actively allowed a safety risk.

These gloves don't cause neuromuscular incapacitation the way that a taser does. In fact, they only work when applied directly to bare skin. These aren't made for apprehending anyone. These have one and only one use: causing extreme pain to already-restrained captives. In plain language: torture.

To the dudes declaring that they're now part of the WNBA draft: Do it. Get on the hormones. Get the surgery. Do it. Go on the hormones, Royce. Follow the rules, boys. Take the pills. You wanna make a point? Make the point the whole damn way, cowards.

we simply must get this woman a championship

Cheryl Reeve’s shirt today:

The idea that the league, teams, coaches, and players should remain silent in the face of this absolute discriminatory bullshit encouraged by bigoted statements from a player is bananas to me. Everyone should be shouting this down. You want an welcoming and inclusive fanbase? PROVE IT.

Olivia Miles goes between the legs on a drop pass to Kayla McBride for 3

Ian Wright saying we shouldn’t forget the way the Iranian team and the Somali referee were treated. Correct.

This is the second time in two years when NWSL has tried to make a game go ahead in dangerous conditions because they didn't want to give up a TV or crowd opportunity. They continue to make their priorities clear.

it’s hard to explain how much shit like this has radicalized people. like i’m a white middle-aged broad who’s always been liberal but i’ve gone full-on “abolish ICE/reform scotus/the next dem candidate must commit to mass prosecutions” and you will not sway me from that position.

really think that if democrats hold any chamber of congress next year that a condition of passing a budget is the removal of russ vought, who has a genuinely tyrannical vision of presidential power and is a focal point of the lawlessness of the trump administration

my only contribution is this: whatever your take and however much discourse you want to dive into, stop calling this 'the balogun situation' and making him the face of it. the corruption happened around him, he didn't ask for any of this. center the people doing the corruption, not the player.

taking this chance to post the Alex Morgan 2019 World Cup goal and tea taunt clip vs. England, Happy 4th of July

Meg isn’t being a buzzkill. Jessica Berman and the NWSL marketing / “activations” team just f*cked up. Again.

a reminder that in the midst of all this multicultural communal joy, we’re still run by people intent on wielding power to harm and destroy. the only way for all this to have meaning beyond cute stories at a soccer tournament is to insist on building the world we’re celebrating now.

The DNC being excessively rude online to Trump’s White House policy architect would hit harder if it were coupled with the party’s full stop blockade of voting for his appointees

Can anyone point to a moment in American history where “Instead of prosecuting these people who violated the law to serve their own political ends I think they should face no consequences so we can heal our divided nation” didn’t make things worse

Trans people have been around your whole life. You’ve been sharing bathrooms with them your whole life. They’ve been in your communities your whole life. They’ve even been playing sport your whole life. And you didn’t care *at all* till a few years ago when every right wing org decided you should

once again, just spitballing, what if we just provided for everyone's basic material needs

WNBA officiating remains complete and total garbage.

the Zohran effect: Gothan sold all of these tickets in less than an hour, per a team spokesperson

you do not have to hand it to tucker carlson or marjorie taylor greene or alex jones or megyn kelly. they're all rats who see trump as a sinking ship and they're getting ready to jump in preparation for their next act. you do not have to fall for it.

Morally, too

BTW the people who spent the last few years advocating for Palestine were clearly 100% right that normalizing war crimes and genocide there would just increase the likelihood of inhumane actions elsewhere. Just saying.

people split hairs about the genocide classification all the time, but Trump unambiguously wrote down his intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national group, and then he broadcast it out

I'm becoming too acquainted with the feeling of dread, coupled with anger that the people best positioned to stop all this choose not to on a daily basis

White male privilege is Geno getting to disrepect a Black woman peer on national television as his team lost and have sports media run cover for him. #Misogynoir is Dawn getting critiqued for defending herself and her team from said abuse, all while knowing she could never behave the same way.

The Supreme Court did not strike down conversion therapy bans today. Not nationwide. Not in Colorado. Not anywhere. Here's what actually happened in Chiles v. Salazar—and why the coverage you're seeing serves the conservative legal movement more than it serves you.

This mural slaps. Literally turned around so I could get a picture.
