Walz: "It's beyond me that apparently from the federal government, the Homeland Security director herself, has already determined who this person who, what their motive was, and they hadn't even been taken out of the vehicle. We're not living in a normal world."

The woman killed by ICE today was a poet. She won the 2020 Academy of American Poets, University & College Poetry Prize at Old Dominion University.

(And this is Renee from confirmed socials- a photo of a different woman with red lipstick is going around, but that was a classmate.)

Looking for an *L.A. based* artist who (against all odds) has time for a poster gig before the end of the year.

It's for a science + art event.

We can offer $500 for the gig.

Dreadfully sorry about the timeline. Link a portfolio if you're interested, I'll delete this post when we found someone.

Very sad that I felt I had no choice but to resign from The Infinite Monkey Cage - a victory for the transphobes and other bigots - I did it because so much of the media has chosen to believe the kind and empathetic people are a fiction - they are real and so often unrepresented.

The SCORE Act is a direct threat to women athletes and the future of women’s sports.

Professional women players associations agree.

I think Americans are realizing that democracy is a participation sport, and the the government is ours if we want it to be. I feel like we got complacent and hoped some other third party would do the work for us. Seems like we have to learn that lesson every generation.

This really struck me. If Uber were legally acknowledged as an employer, then it would be the biggest employer in the world, with over 9,000,000 employees globally. Think about how many taxes, wages, and protections are being lost b/c of their intransigence.

I also think officially engaging bad faith actors over eligibility in a statement like this means the “protect women’s sports” crowd have successfully controlled the conversation. Everyone’s dancing around the underlying problem, except for Sarah Gorden.

Before anything bad happens tomorrow (and it likely will if someone is going on THAT network),

Protect Black Women. Protect Black Girls. Support Black Women. Support Black Girls. Donate to the BWPC. Support Black media. Protect OUR sport against abusers, predators, bad actors and opportunists.

CHRISTMAS

THEY ARE NOT ANY OF THE DAYS LEADING UP TO CHRISTMAS

THAT IS ADVENT

THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME

Does Anyone know if Angel City reported attendance for the last two home games? I’m missing those numbers. Not reported in the usual places but maybe in stadium #Angelcityfc #nwsl

it is SO funny to me that seasoned organizers are warning folks about OPSEC and being mindful that no kings is gonna have a ton of LEOs and plainclothes/undercovers and folks are telling us to shut up

they work with LEOs and we live in a police state, protect yourself if you're going.
