Impossible to overstate how unsurprising this is to me.
A new survey of 1,000 American adults found that the strongest supporters of transgender sports bans are not the people who admire women most: they are the people who hold the most hostile views about women. www.helenwebberley.com/news/transge...

Amazing advances for democracy in Brazil and Serbia today!
With 83% of the vote counted nationwide, Lula has stretched his lead to 2.8 million votes. That's a lead of 51.4% to 48.6%. That puts him on track for a victory that could be larger than his 1.8% win four years ago, which would be an immense comeback. He's even up in Minas Gervais now, by 0.6%.
Cool as hell.
Kansas Dem Sen. nominee Adam Hamilton on trans rights: “I don’t think we should take a small group of people and bully them, pick on them, and hurt them. I understand one thing really clearly when it comes to transgender people, and that is Jesus told me I was to love my neighbor as I love myself”

One of the more bleak articles I’ve read in awhile. The titans have only won 33 of their last 36!?!?!!?!??! It’s honestly an incredible boondoggle to get a free stadium while also doing the absolute least and having the results to show for it. www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/...

a little louder for the cheap seats in the back
I spent a year watching school administrators do their jobs—and interviewing the students most impacted. I spoke to @thecut.com in a long-form Q&A about what I saw. Mainly, a system designed to protect perpetrators and punish victims in each and every case.

Downtown and Midtown had explosive growth in residential and commercial occupancy over this same time period- driving economic activity faster than anywhere else in the county. And yet the entire tax increment gets attributed to tourism and trapped in the TDZ to lure "mega events" and other BS
Broadway generates a ton of tax revenue. Twenty years ago, before the "It City" boom, before tourists were buying $12 beers, lawmakers signed away that money with the "Tourism Development Zone." www.nashvillescene.com/news/pithint...
