“I find it frustrating and lazy that men don’t get involved,” Ryan Hamilton said. “Why are you not out here going, ‘How dare you?’ … You’re happy to let your wife or daughter go out and tell their nightmare story over and over again while you sit your lazy ass at home?”
It’s been almost a year since Ryan Hamilton went viral with his story about carrying his pregnant wife from a puddle of blood on their bathroom floor into his truck to drive to a Texas hospital for the fourth time seeking care.

One thing they do in the NFL, which would be fascinating to see in the Premier League, is the player's union runs and publishes an annual, anonymous survey of player perceptions of their teams. They grade facilities, canteen, quality of owner, quality of coaching etc.

The Seattle Sounders have announced a new "First Match On Us" initiative.

Essentially, it's free tickets to select matches for anyone who hasn't attended a Sounders game before. Seattle say they want to grow the game.

This is a great way to do so. Awesome idea 👏👏

I want to say again to academics who are interested in public writing. Look locally. Sure national outlets are good and I do that too, but this kind of visibility in your community can have a real impact.

Firings are happening right now at the National Science Foundation. Essential staff are being cut.

This isn’t about the budget. If it was, they’d be going after the military (17%) or state appropriations (38%). NSF is 0.7% of the federal budget. All federal employees make up only 4% of the budget.

My latest: “Recent data shows that girls ages 12-18 are the fastest growing market for women's sports, which makes these weight loss drugs especially concerning. This is the age group most vulnerable to the onset of eating disorders.”
we need to talk about weight loss drug ads in women's sports
Women's sports also have a rapidly growing audience, and brands are desperate to cash in.

I think some people hear “grants” and think that without them, scientists and government workers just have less stuff to play with at work. But grants fund salaries for students, academics, researchers, and people who work in all areas of public service.
