Tip: Set your calendar to start weeks on Monday. Splitting our view of weekends is a bullshit capitalist mind trick.

the inability to view any stand you personally disagree with as motivated by anything except clout chasing is a true disease of the soul and the fact the sufferers walk around like asymptomatic carriers openly saying things like this and thinking they have been insightful is part of the pathology

Facts.

Everyone unfairly causes her of cheating, especially those that know nothing about track.

A few weeks back I shared that Estrogen is a performance enhancing as much as Testosterone.

If y'all understood that thread, you might start to understand why top track coaches say she was clean.

I don't have time today to argue with transphobes and dudes that suck at sports, who feel hurt by the fact that Estrogen gives women more recovery capacity for high intensity work than men.

I've had that argument too many times.

If you're not a world-class athlete, I'm just ignoring you today.

So yes, Testosterone is a performance enhancing drug. But so is Estrogen.

It depends on the aspect of human performance that we're talking about.

The idea that Testosterone is all around better for all sports comes from the biased idea that cis women can't beat cis men at sports.

But they can.

🇮🇱 Israel’s Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich: “There’s a business plan on Trump’s table to turn Gaza into a real estate bonanza.

We paid a lot of money for this war. Now we need to divide how we make a percentage. We did the demolition phase. Now we build. It’s much cheaper.”

That's why I don't believe this Epstein stuff will matter when it comes out. Dude has committed so many public crimes. They don't care.
So just to be clear, we all haven't forgotten that the current President whipped up a mob and tried to have them murder his political enemies at the Capitol, right?

Overcrowded cells. Unsanitary conditions. Limited access to food and water.

These are the conditions that ICE has created at 26 Federal Plaza, which eleven elected officials sought to expose. Instead, they were arrested.

They must be released right now — and inspectors let in.
Just now, 11 state and city lawmakers were arrested by DHS police on the 10th floor of 26 Federal Plaza after a hour of demanding access to the ICE lock up on the same floor. @thecity.nyc

The remarks weren’t “about Charlie Kirk,” they were about how this administration is using Kirk’s death as an excuse to shut down critics … and they responded by proving him completely correct.

If somebody expressing their identity is political, and terrorism is violence to influence politics, then every hate crime is a tiny right wing terrorist attack.

once again it is not fucking normal to lower flags in oregon for random member of the opposing political party who was born in illinois, lived in arizona, and died in utah. this is not a normal thing they're extending to a white supremacist, it's a special thing they're doing for a white supremacist
Oregon governor Tina Kotek, a gay woman, is ordering flags to be flown at half-staff to honor a podcaster who said gay people should be stoned to death.
