It probably was time for Noelle Quinn to move on, but I would like her to get the credit she's earned as head coach. They really were so, so close to a championship that first season despite having to take over part way. They were never, ever, ever comfortable for opposing teams to play.

A closed loop
Why women don't have the luxury of "sticking to sports", Michael Porter Jr.'s dangerous ignorance, and the recent weaponized misogyny at W games.

Finally, after way too many years, got around to playing the Tamriel Rebuilt mod for Morrowind and it's absolutely gorgeous

Just in case anyone was curious about whether the most predictable outcome of the UK's dumbass online safety act would happen; yes. The dodgy sites are not checking. The safer ones are.

I think the argument that this doesn't help, or fractionally impedes, the Blazers from winning a championship is reasonable. But organised sports doesn't exist just so someone can win it. Similar (although much lower moral stakes) to how my objection to KPJ on the Bucks isn't about wins
I’m thinking of how differently fans are likely to feel in 18 months when he’s a shadow of his former Blazers’ self than they are today. It’s much more of a “win the press conference” move than a basketball one.
I think this comes down to a 'Who is the game for?' question

I felt there were pretty fair reasons why Gabby Williams wasn't getting to the line as much as she might like over the season - but these last two games have been fucking dreadful on that front. Call the foul when she's being fouled.

The best bit about enjoying the act of learning is that if I struggle to really grasp something I just get to keep learning it and enjoying that instead

No place hot enough for the people doing what they're doing to children sheltering in schools. No place hot enough for the Western politicians who enable it.

If I were the Bucks my pitch to Giannis to stay would be to show him the team subreddits of every other franchise, one by one, and offer the chance to put 50 on each of those teams heads. They don't think you can win without Stephon Castle. They would rather have Amen Thompson. You gotta show em.

My absolute least favourite tweet is Americans saying 'Cuba has the moral high ground 💀' or 'we're acting like Russia'
cuba has always had the high ground, usa is acting like usa, own the fascism that's embedded in the political culture - it's not unusual behaviour historically.

Been hard to watch Harrison Ford in anything where the entire performance doesn't feel like it's catered to old nerds and I don't know if that's his fault

This is really great. I do wish pieces of this quality got to stand as the merits of a player rather than being framed as a transfer opportunity for a 'preferred' club, but ignoring that element I love this.
Yves Bissouma and Moisés Caicedo made Brighton a lot of money. Carlos Baleba might be their best DM prospect yet.

Is this young midfielder the next £100m transfer?

Was thinking about the history lessons I had as a kid and how when learning about historical atrocities (the atlantic slave trade, colonising India) they were quite comfortable to show the cruelties but it was always connected to the economics - the treatment of slaves was a means to increase-

Yes! Very happy for Holly Winterburn getting a WNBA shot, and very well deserved. You've heard me wax lyrical about her qualities in recent years. Crowded roster in Atlanta at this point, but hopefully a chance to stick (or catch on elsewhere later). #WNBA

Still working through the idea but I don't think the Luka trade gets this much rage were there not parallels of feeling grief and helplessness (even in a sports context) at unaccountable and unconcerned power in a small handful of people elsewhere in our consciousness.

The ref stuff has gotten out of hand. So out of hand. Please can we bin off VAR, stop putting referees on TV, and force everyone to learn a healthier relationship with sports where we all just accept that sometimes there's mistakes. I'm tired of a weeks discourse cause some can't handle a bad red.
