In a typical move, Donald Trump attacks our Somali community because he can’t think of anything else to do on a Friday night. That’s who he is, but it’s not who we are.

Shutting down the government is a big deal. People have been hurt in big ways as a result of the decision. To have that suffering be for nothing—to re-open the government without actually having protected people’s health insurance and economic well-being—is unconscionable.

University of Washington goalkeeper Mia Hamant passed away following a valiant battle with kidney cancer. The Seattle Reign and Orlando Pride players honor her legacy by wearing orange ribbons tonight 🧡

Our thoughts are with her family, teammates and the entire Husky community.

Love the stories of small Minnesota towns being reinvigorated by immigrant families

We couldn’t survive without these neighbors, and we should protect them

They pay into our society and deserve respect

Most of this varsity boys team hails from immigrant families. This season, they learned to live and play as a team against the backdrop of a nationwide immigration crackdown.

Got a warning in the mail this week that my Target Red Card will be closed due to lack of activity if I don’t make a purchase soon. Made me laugh. Anyone else get one? If so, I’m proud to be boycotting with you.

This is such horrendous science communication from the Guardian I almost don’t know where to start. The appropriate takeaway from this is that the SRY gene is a poor proxy variable in isolation. It isn’t that there were 50-60 people who were secretly “biologically male”

Love @seriea-stats.bsky.social pass maps. It’s like seeing the science behind how it feels to watch a game.

If only there was a special mark for bogus handball calls! 😉

Forza #ASRoma 💛❤️ and their sexy passing game

All I ask from Target is that they stop pandering to bigoted fascist pedophiles who are aspiring dictators. There aren’t many people that heinous, so it’s a small ask. I will keep boycotting until then.

I’ve covered MLS, the USOC, USL, WPSL, and countless others, but I grew up wanting to do sports radio.

Well tomorrow that [kind of] gets to happen. New #WoSo pod from me drops at 7am. Can’t wait to see where this ends up!

Must be hard for journalists to come up with original headlines, when the story is “Yet Another White Man Murders a Woman For A Stupid Reason.”

RIP Kathryn Voelker. And peace to all who are grieving her.
