seeing the posts about visitors discovering that you can walk around most of our cities and just be yourself in a multicultural setting, discovering tailgating, starting impromptu block parties, my muslim mayor, etc. etc. it's corny to say it but that's our secret sauce. and it means something

You’ll be fully unsurprised that Fever fans have found a way to be upset despite being the only team with three All-Star starters 😂

Well. That was hopeful while it lasted.

Wow a Whitest Kids U Know reunion

I'm watching Tony East's video but it should also be here. The TL;DR is she said (paraphrasing) "Homophobia & racism are unacceptable & don't consider yourself a fan of us if you're peddling that. Fandom rivalry is one thing, bigotry is another." youtu.be/zqaCSwplpK8?...

if congo pull this off i want the british museum empty by midnight

Also FUCK trying to be understood. BE THE ENIGMA. BE WEIRD. Everyone around you is trying to mold you into who they think you should be and they don’t get a say in who you really are.

No matter what happens, I’m feeling like a genius already 🫡

It’s almost like Democrats are conservatives with a thin veneer of acceptability painted on top

Retires for a little while, then joins the Wizards, then psychologically destroys their first overall pick

Putting in four 25¢ #WNBA DFS lineups for the Commissioner’s Cup Final tonight. Trying to think through good exposure. Anyone I’m really missing here? 100% TERFshoes, JJ, Jackie 0, Point Gawd 50% Astier 25% Sabrina, Chennedy, CPT, Marine, Jewell, Rebekah Gardner

I don't think people understand the degree to which outlets like The Atlantic and The New York Times set back trans rights with second-rate reporting that doesn't stand up now, let alone in the future. They have failed at the most basic journalistic duties.

I miss the days when I would help film a friend’s movie over a weekend, and the next one we would write together on a stageplay concept I’d come up with. I really yearn for that kind of creative back-and-forth again.

I really want to get some creative work going again. I have some fun/stupid ideas for podcasts but want to do them with cohosts, I have a card game I’m working on designing, and I am roughing out a story that I hope will be a short novel. Is anyone else jonesing for creative community right now?

Harry Turtledove has to be pissed he’s not getting royalties

Saying something doesn’t take the most courage, but in a time of cowardice in the face of resurgent fascism, take note of who speaks up and who stays silent. I’m begging people, please learn from history: only let those who want you, your friends, and your family to thrive back in when this is over

This birthright ruling is why I just refuse to tolerate all the Democrat garment rending over NY voters choosing progressive candidates. They are incapable of governing in this moment. The politics of appeasement and centrism gets us to a 5-4 decision on the constitutional question.

Everything keeps getting worse, because no one learns anything. We keep making the same mistakes, and trusting that the same institutions that didn't save us last time, will somehow save us this time. We're willing to try everything except for "Let's try less racism maybe?"

Trans women are women, trans men are men. Everyone deserves access to sports and if you disagree you can go fuck yourself

United who ?

🚨🧡NEW EPISODE ALERT! 🧡🚨 This week I'm joined by a few of my fellow leaguemates from the WSB leagues. I had a great conversation talking all things #WNBA & #FantasyBasketball w/ Jesse, Ryan and Jim!!! YouTube. Spotify. Apple Podcasts. open.spotify.com/episode/1may...

My book comes out tomorrow! TOMORROW You still have time to preorder it, and join all the cool kids who have already done so!

Some AI dork: “Well, actually, golf courses use more water than data centres.” Yes. Those can go, too. Thanks.

… listen to @trashfuture.bsky.social. America’s politics a few years early. Seriously, this is the same shit that has Keir Starmer already out as UK PM. It’s literally what they did and people ran him out of town. The Democratic Party is deeply unserious about helping — let alone saving — you.

I like Chappell; this also falls clearly under my policy of “stop doing biographies of famous people while they’re alive”

If anyone wants to say that DFS sites don’t cause a problem, I didn’t care about golf before getting Masters free plays Now I’m giggling about Scottie Scheffler losing again (tho mainly because the videos I watched this event had dorks chanting USA for him and jeering it at international players)

Olivia Miles. I gasped.

WHAT???

Kind of obsessed with Ballhalla chanting “for the gays” on the ESPN broadcast. Gabby Williams gave the fans a new chant!

This is the first 4-OT game since 2001. The Mystics also played in that one against the Storm. #WNBA

How many times has 4OT ever happened??? #WNBA

3OT!!!

And I’m pretty sure Olivia Miles is known as Olivia Kilometers most other places in the world. #WNBA

Wings try to add more pressure on Olivia Miles, hard show in P&R and Shepard holds. Miles looks to drive the other way and it's contained. Problem is the Lynx will keep it moving and once they get you in rotation it's tough. Reject vs the show opens the roll, pass, kick for 3

A longish (but worth it!) series of video segments by @sarahspain.com giving her reaction to the appallingly irresponsible Christine Brennan piece about Caitlin Clark after the Alyssa Thomas foul. There is more to this video that comes first. You can check it all out on Sarah’s instagram page. 1:

RIVALRY IS ON

Playing in Russia isn't new for Nogic. She was with UMMC Ekaterinburg last year as well, the same team that once paid Taurasi not to play in the WNBA, and is likely doing the same right now with Maria Kliundikova. It's just weird to show up in Phoenix at all if this was an option. #WNBA

Hey, y’all remember that fucking insane Valkyries/Dream game last night? That was great

That’s the weird thing with this situation and any of them seemingly involving CC: they all are more nuanced than ppl admit. I can see how that foul gets retroactively upgraded and the suspension happens. But if that’s the standard, it cannot be selectively wielded — and it will be.

Mercury coach Nate Tibbetts said Alyssa Thomas' incident with Caitlin Clark wasn't a cheap shot. He said the WNBA's investigation was not thorough.

the sophie cunningham pointing meme keeps making the rounds and just a reminder she's a MAGA transphobe who riles up her fanbase to antagonize and harass Black players in the W so like, maybe don't reward her dogshit behavior

In her first full season back from maternity leave, Cheyenne Parker-Tyus has been a critical piece for the Las Vegas Aces off the bench. But in speaking with her teammates, Kelly Johnson writes, it's clear her impact goes way beyond the court: www.theixsports.com/the-ix-baske...
