Not at Wave-Thorns today but watching from afar while my partner recovers from surgery. Fun to be a fan for the NWSL quarterfinals and root for complete chaos.

“It’s just unfortunate that players like Barbra have to go through that harassment when they bring so much joy to their cities and communities. These are wonderful women. And this is the playoffs, which is the most exciting time of the year.” -Vlatko on recent transphobic rhetoric(? From me)

At her presser today, I asked Laura Harvey for her thoughts on the discourse about trans athletes and the #NWSL, and the divisive rhetoric targeting some players for their appearance. Here is her answer (with transcript of her remarks in alt text):

I had the pleasure of joining the US Deaf WNT for training camp last year. They are dominant on the field, and many of the players have also discovered a whole new view on life from their time with the team. They strive to help others do the same.
Soccer -- and life -- through the eyes of the U.S. deaf women's national team
The U.S. deaf women's national team has come a long way from playing on a dairy farm with cows to a professional stadium on TV, but this is only the start of the team's journey.

You can also honor Lia Smith's memory by giving to the Middlebury College Prism Center for Queer and Trans Life. My heart is just broken. The link is here: engage.middlebury.edu/give-to-prism

What is absolutely devastating to me is that Elizabeth Eddy's post comes just days after the tragic death of Middlebury College student-athlete Lia Smith. This hate and bigotry has real world consequences. Help if you can: give.translifeline.org/give/461718/...

Today I'm listening to Liz Phair's Exile In Guyville for all kinds of reasons. Mostly because I'm off today and I'm dancing around my living room like I don't give a **ck and my cat thinks I'm crazy. This is what being an adult looks like.

Not clicking on "that" post today. Will not give it one moment of time today. I already know it's BS. Anyway, spread love everyone, it's Monday.
