All of us should recognize that it is simply about the hate when it comes to banning trans athletes

They are not a threat to the games and guess what, it’s not even present if it is a real threat! (It’s not)

Minnesota’s State Board of Investment has sold nearly all its Israel bonds, a move Boycott, Divest and Sanction activists call a major victory after years of pushing for divestment. It has divested 96 percent of its Israel bonds. Israel holdings were valued at $13.3 million in December 2020.
Divestment activists claim win as Minnesota board sheds most Israel bonds

MLS, in its infinite wisdom, decided that the Monday before Thanksgiving was the ideal time to make us fly 3000 miles to support #MNUFC. Super.

We're working arrangements, but wondered how many folks are really interested in going. Let @loonstravel.bsky.social know:

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
In Willmar, a soccer field becomes a refuge from heated immigration debate
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.

Listening to the Jackson 5 as I open the bar

I saw mommy kissing Santa Clause came on

This song was definitely written by a dude who was actually cheated on at Christmas

Way too many specifics to be fictional 🤷🏻‍♂️

It definitely makes sense that with 16 teams left in the @mls.bsky.social playoffs, there is zero MLS soccer on this Saturday

Bring on Monday and Tuesday!

Sports Gambling is brutal, as someone who could easily slide into the addictive habit, we just don’t need this on our phones at all times

Also after watching folks play etabs at the bar, (including me!) we don’t need more

If you make folks go to a casino to sports bet at least there’s a barrier
