I haven't looked into her claims but she thinks the US govt deleted her from the US Passport database because of her trans rights activism

my tiktok feed is filled with folks sharing stories of their passports suddenly being voided, all of which are activists in some way.

Town Hall Lanes (my husband’s employer) is offering free meals to anyone under 18yo today. No restrictions. Go in, bowl a few games, bug my husband and feed your kids. (And let neighbors who are food insecure know)

Just found out my wife might be losing her job, so I'm desperately searching for work. Contract, full-time, freelance, whatever. Press, PR, consulting, anything. I have 16 years of editorial experience and have been writing about games for 13. Reviews, news, previews, guides, etc. RTs appreciated.

love all 3 guys named in this piece, and I'd also love it if the Knicks could get another rim-protecting big on the roster.
With the NBA trade deadline approaching, the Knicks’ decision-makers are in a tough spot: is the team’s defense closer to what we saw vs. the Clippers or the 10 games before?

Story, with some names that could help if they need to look outside for a fix:

Can Knicks fix defense internally or do they need a trade?

NEW: I wrote about the misogyny I sat through at last night's PWHL game, blaming myself for how I responded in the moment (or didn't), and why my newsletter community was there to make it all feel a little more tolerable.
misogyny! at the pwhl game
and how the OOYL discord made it bearable

Thinking more about John Harbaugh and Ravens fans' glee that he's gone: Harbaugh's legacy in Baltimore would have been very different if Mark Andrews hadn't had two of the most egregious drops in recent NFL history.
