A reminder, Nikki Stanton called out transphobia in WOSO by name, and now she's lifting a trophy. You can stand for our trans siblings and win.

A nice obituary for Alice, who was going to be recognized as one of The Post 50.

I hate that we now have to live without this phenomenal woman.

The incredible, indomitable, inspirational Alice Wong has left us.

I'm so grateful to have known her on social media, and so grateful for all the words she shared with us and all the actions she encouraged us into making.

May we live up to her example.

I would strongly recommend to anyone in the #NWSL who is trying to learn from "subject matter experts," go listen to "Tested," by @reveleth.com (from @npr.org & CBC). It's a full education on the history of sex testing in women's sports & DSD athletes today

Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default.

Here's how to turn it off.

"World's first potential trillionaire has killed 600,000 people, including 400,000 children" is the only headline that anyone should ever read about Elon Musk
One analytical model shows that, as of November 5th, the dismantling of U.S.A.I.D. has already caused the deaths of 600,000 people, two-thirds of them children. https://newyorkermag.visitlink.me/jUzNSc

To put this in scale, Elon Musk's salary from Tesla alone could fund the SNAP program for the entire country into 2034.
Tesla CEO Elon Musk scored a resounding victory on Thursday as shareholders approved a pay package of as much as $878 billion over the next decade, endorsing his vision of morphing the EV maker into an AI and robotics juggernaut.

Starting with "You can have your opinions on trans issues & who can/cannot participate in women's sports leagues based on gender standards" is positioning this as a debate. Trans people's ability to fully participate in public life is NOT an "opinion" to "disagree" on! We have lost the plot!
Instagram post from former player Nicole Baxter following the appearance of her former teammate on a conservative news network this morning.

It reflects what others probably feel: have the conversation internally, not in a way that explicitly opens up players to abuse - that’s inexcusable.

I see that everyone is still avoiding terms like “transphobia” and the context around policing womanhood being a danger to all women.

The fact a *single* Amazon full-time employee requires SNAP benefits should be a crime. The fact Amazon is the largest employer of SNAP recipients is a disgrace. Jeff Bezos shouldnt be that rich; he should be in jail.

a reminder of where this began ~11 months ago. the bad faith attacks and outside agitators (and inside!) are here for real. what happens next?

she timed the release of that horrible article when there was only one game left in the season and her career.

she absolutely knew what she’s doing. that is, becoming the next riley gaines — who should only be remembered as the worst 5th place finisher ever — in the football/soccer world.

UNRWA has enough food outside #Gaza to supply people there for 3 months, amid desperate need. Our teams stand ready to deliver it.

But despite the #ceasefire, the Israeli Authorities’ block on UNRWA bringing any supplies into Gaza still continues.

Let us get aid into Gaza at the full scale needed.

And THIS is why I said at least every captain needed to speak and be unified. Guess who is gonna get the hate from the Fox News crowd now? Sarah Gorden, that's who. The only Black captain. Okay, going back to work now.

Can't overstate how fucked up it is that unraveling what is arguably the greatest achievement in the history of humanity is now a motivating issue of one of the two dominant parties in the U.S.
FL is moving forward w/ plan to end all childhood vaccine mandates. Starting with hepatitis B, chickenpox, and the bacteria causing meningitis and pneumonia. Then next year GOP FL legislature is expected to revisit 1977 law re: whooping cough, measles, polio, rubella, mumps, diphtheria, and tetanus.

This is leadership, as many people have already said; but also another moment where people will wonder why anyone else in a position of power hasn't spoken up. It should not have to be just Sarah Gorden's job.
