Not to keep bringing ✨women✨ into it, but calling this "the most important match in U.S. Soccer history" is crazy work.

89 - @thornsfc.com's Sophia Wilson scored her 50th regular-season #NWSL goal in her 89th league appearance on Sunday, the fewest needed to reach 50 goals in league history, ahead of Sam Kerr (91) and Lynn Biyendolo (99). Pace.

No one is pretending that FIFA was ever a bastion of justice and fairness. But the egregious maltreatment of some teams juxtaposed with clear preference of others, makes it too blatant to accept.

Almost every post and article about corruption is using Folarin's face while saying how badly they feel for him. HE didn't do anything corrupt. Use the photos of those that did.

my only contribution is this: whatever your take and however much discourse you want to dive into, stop calling this 'the balogun situation' and making him the face of it. the corruption happened around him, he didn't ask for any of this. center the people doing the corruption, not the player.

You can try and justify Trump pressuring FIFA to go outside of its appeals process to satisfy him as much as you want, but it’s just brazen corruption by him and FIFA. The US isn’t the first country to get a red card that it saw as unjustified. Pretending that corruption is justice now is loser shit

(You gotta watch a few times to catch the brilliant backheel right at the top of the clip but) SOPH BACK!!! 🌹

lmao pietra, pls

Do y’all see this insanity?? Quick restart from Liv and then just two touches: Soph’s inch perfect cross and Reilyn’s first time shot to the far post for goal no.3 like what. Incredible. Go thornies 🌹

Tordin hive riseee! 🌹

"birthright citizenship is destroying this nation and everyone who benefited from it should be denaturalized and deported except this one guy, temporarily, for sports reasons" about sums up this administration

Trump called Infantino on Wednesday to get Balogun's red card lifted. Nice to ride alon with Tyler Pager on what will be seen (and is) in many parts as one of the biggest scandals in World Cup history. www.nytimes.com/2026/07/05/u...

Celebrating summerween with a perfectly (if accidentally) timed samhain-themed quest in ac valhalla 🎃

Birdie slept so badly last night she woke me up every few hours (once to throw up, a few more times to go outside) and in my short bursts of sleep I had the weeeiiiirrrrdest dreams 😵‍💫

when the dummy dummies 🤌🤌🤌

lmao mel b remains a create-a-player

Ref cam needs audio.

Bleughhh the fireworks have begun 😒👎

Time to be a buzzkill but the NWSL paying for a high-profile photographer/influencer to post photos of Ronaldo — who has faced multiple sexual assault allegations — as part of their summer of soccer to advertise a women’s soccer league……… Why.

Welcome to it 😅

OK, here is the men's World Cup reading list for the politically-inclined fans. I composed this by request from a reader, please enjoy! These lists always take way more work to put together than I think they will lol

no thank you, actually, i do not want it

idk what misstep i made but the insta algo thinks that i desire to see posts of people praising/simping daemon targaryen and that simply must stop immediately

It’s good to be a loyal knight ❤️

when you find out how much vacation time Americans get at their jobs

Y’all know about Kylian Mbappé?

Who really owns the skin you’re in? Get some trans body horror for the last day of pride with the audiobook of LESSER HUNGERS, starring a nonbinary lesbian (and their ghost girlfriend) facing cops and cannibalistic mold! Narrated by Haruspex Audio 😈 haruspex-audio.com/products/les...

I need this book so bad actually

Still not a threat to sports or a threat in general.

i will never ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever understand what level of hate & hubris one has to hold in their heart in order to endlessly tout & then codify into law the deliberate dehumanization of a group of people

All right, fuck this. We're doing dollars per goals today to the Trans Youth Equality Foundation. Because trans kids deserve to play, to be loved, to be safe. Who's with us? www.paypal.com/donate?token...

hey when we say that liberals and democrats are worse than useless on trans rights this is the kind of shit we are talking about :) by the way :) what is the fucking point of conceding on title IX like this. what is the fucking point.

Playing sports as a trans woman has been one of the greatest joys of my life. I am most myself when I'm on the rugby field playing with my teammates. Sports go far beyond a pastime. The field is a refuge; a home. The team is a family. Trans people belong in sports.

Trans fam: your lives are precious no matter what the fuck these people say translifeline.org/hotline/

It was never about sports. We’ve been telling you guys for years. Sports were a means to an end. And here we are.

Happy last day of #Pride! Here is my final rainbow stack! 🌈📚 This one’s chock full of favs (& only a few tbrs lol) The Scapegracers trilogy, TSCTW, ADOFN, & The Magic of the Lost trilogy by @clclarkwrites.com are all solidly fixed as favs for me. Keep reading gay shit, y’all! #booksky #queerlit

I prefer to save talking till I know what I’m talking about.

To be reborn one must die, Tenar. It is not so hard as it looks from the other side.

clank clonk **kissing noises from knights

Kiss kiss flail🏳️‍🌈

Fix your hearts or die. You know how many of us joke that Pride month should be followed by Wrath? This year I feel a deep, burning fury towards all who use transgender lives as political propaganda. We are human beings. You cannot erase us. Happy Pride. Trans liberation at any cost. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

do movies NEED dance numbers. do women NEED orgasms. is pleasure actually, fundamentally sinful. what was so wrong about the town in The Giver, anyway,

We're thrilled to present the shortlist for the 2026 Ursula K. Le Guin Prize for Fiction:

A key point in Fahrenheit 451 is that books were banned because they made people depressed and uncomfortable. The novel's protagonist, Montag, is taken into custody after he reads a poem that makes a woman cry because she realizes the emptiness of her life.
