I want more people to care that SNAP benefits are being cut off on November 1. 40% of SNAP beneficiaries are children. This is callous and vile.

Retirements call for flowers, but also reevaluation. Christen Press’ career defies neat storylines of success on and off the field, even as she retires as a two-time World Cup winner. An attempt to capture the whole, at @theathletic.com www.nytimes.com/athletic/671...

Feeling all the feels seeing CP23 take the field for the last time 🥹❤️‍🔥 #angelcityfc

Am I the only one who has to look up perennial vs annual repeatedly? THEY BOTH SOUND LIKE THEY MEAN EVERY YEAR. #gardenproblems

Delta’s new Muzak boarding music is giving me very strong dentist office PTSD

I still can’t believe how lucky we are to have gotten Saara, and to have her leadership taking us forward!!

I simply can’t overstate how great this is. Building a community-owned club that rivals and outperforms women’s pro teams has been insane, but Saara came in this year and took it beyond the next level. I feel so lucky we have her. VAMOS MILLONARIOS.

My apologies Zelda I was unfamiliar with your game

"The WNBA got handed a winning lottery ticket not seen in sports since Tiger Woods arrived on the PGA Tour. The league should stop trying to light it on fire." www.espn.com/wnba/story/_...

And who were the officials that Cheryl, Becky Hammon, and Stephanie White all complained about? 2 G League refs and ??? a random guy I guess. In the PLAYOFFS zonecoverage.com/2025/lynx/tr...

Ugh I would love to go to this but have a class tomorrow night - please, folks out there, love on our Lynx ladies for me!

Kayla McBride, very emotional, on this #Lynx season: "It's the people you go to work with every day. ... You just want it for the people that are around you. ... In pro sports, it doesn't get as good as we have it in our locker room. ... This shit fucking hurts."

Lol. Went upstairs after the Lynx game and immediately stepped on an open safety pin. I GET IT, UNIVERSE

My heart is broken for my Lynx. Happy for the Mercury, glad this was a good game. My girls never stopped fighting. McBuckets 🩷🩷🩷🩷

Second Harvest Heartland is so short on volunteers they have had to turn down thousands of pounds of food. Consider helping out? www.mprnews.org/story/2025/0... volunteer.2harvest.org/need/detail/...

This game has been fun-physical, not nasty-physical. There is a difference!!

MCBUCKETS BABY

I have the worst headache. Lynx stress? Life stress? Allergies? All of the above

I'd believe anything tonight. "The Phoenix Mercury have released swarms of live bees into the arena! After both teams were scolded, WNBA officials have allowed the game to continue. Bridget Carleton's leg fell off, and she is questionable to return."

I still feel so sad about the Lynx game. I watch women’s sports to feel fun and joyful. This felt awful and physical and angry throughout - for both sides- and it ended predictably, with potentially career-impacting injury. It’s not what the W is about, and it has to change. #WNBA

They done broke the nice Canadian lady who just wants to be left alone in the corner to drain threes.

Stud Budz even said Bridget be too nice on the court. What did Phoenix do to that woman?! The look on Courtney's face is killing me.

I just watched the closeup slow motion and if her ankle isn’t broken it’s a fucking MIRACLE. I am IRATE

good time to re-up my reporting on WNBA officiating this season? www.sfchronicle.com/sports/artic...

Find someone who will fight for you as hard as Cheryl fights for Phee

I quite literally stormed out of the room screaming - someone tell me if Phee is okay please 😳

Lan must really be in the dog house with Cheryl. We haven’t seen her in a WHILE

This game is too stressful to even be fun even though it’s an INCREDIBLE game

1) Take food money from hungry families 2) Start trade war that drives up food costs 3) Stop tracking the # of hungry families 4) Declare hunger solved without actually feeding people

At the same time, Coach Reeve's @mnaurorafc.bsky.social shirt.

OMG CHERYL REEVE IS WEARING AN AURORA SHIRT

Absolutely shocked by this. I was under the impression she was beloved by fans and players - maybe I’m wrong but she also WON A TITLE LAST YEAR and had a team full of injuries this year which is not her fault.

Welcome to the Aurora family! 💫 Carley Knox + Cheryl Reeve join as investors — legends with six WNBA titles, Olympic + World Cup golds, and decades of leadership. Together, we’re building a club rooted in community and the future of women’s soccer. #BrighterTogether

Literally the perfect sports news for me: Cheryl Reeve and Carley Knox are the latest investors of my @mnaurorafc.bsky.social. WOMEN SUPPORTING WOMEN. WOMEN IN SPORTS. GO LYNX. GO AURORA. ETC. My heart is so happy :) mnaurora.com/minnesota-au...

Nazis: You’re just fine with your tax dollars feeding EVERYONE ELSE’S kids lunch?? Me: Yes. And breakfast. And dinner. And two reasonable snacks. And everyone else in their family. Everyone. I want EVERYONE to have 3 meals and 2 snacks. And education. And healthcare. And homes. And water. And…

WHAT A GAME

Lot of extremely fun players in this game; Jordin Canada, Kelsey Mitchell, ALLISHA MFing GRAY 👑

This Liberty-Mercury game just feels like a bummer
