9 - @bostonlegacyfc.com has collected nine points from losing positions this season (W2 D3). The only #NWSL team to earn more in their inaugural season (excluding original 2013 teams) was Houston (11) in 2014. Grit.

THE VATICAN IS CALLING IT A SCHISM I REPEAT HOUSTON, WE HAVE A SCHISM

I love that Seattle does this. @bostonlegacyfc.com, take notes!

Welp, my sister and I joked for years that we should join the DAR to help make it more progressive but the supportive trans vote finally convinced me. Just put in my membership interest form for real this time.

Lifetime Supreme Court appointments really feels like an “its power seems inevitable, so did the divine right of kings” situation

The other day, I stumbled across a t-shirt that said "the trans agenda is an average lifespan," and boy, if that doesn't sum up a lot.

Today, we reaffirm our support for transgender athletes and transgender members of our community. Sports unite us and should always be a place of belonging. We reject efforts that invite greater scrutiny of athletes’ bodies, identities, and private medical information.

For all the cheering about this case being 8-1 or 7-2, it was, effectively, 5-4. A single vote.

The trans sports cases are about much more than sports & trans people. It's about distracting you from the chipping away of other rights & freedoms. It's about whether the government gets to decide who we are & how we live. It is about power & control.

Japanese internment survivors and faith leaders completed a 45-mile a pilgrimage from World War II internment camp in Crystal City, TX to Dilley to protest what one internment survivor described as "inhumane and a tragic 'repetition of American history.'”

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. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

If you have to go searching around your apartment to figure out where you stashed one of your not-yet-built Lego sets…you might have a Lego problem. (It’s me, I have a Lego problem. Also I ordered more this week 😅)

Your Prime Day reminder that half of Amazon warehouse workers struggle with food & housing costs. A third have had to rely on government assistance like SNAP — which was gutted last year. If Bezos can spend $500M on a yacht, Amazon can afford to treat its workers with dignity.

To love the sea as she must be loved requires change.

New from 404 Media: Madison Square Garden made a dossier on activists who have opposed the venue's facial recognition program. MSG scans faces of people so some can be arbitrarily denied entry. Dossier includes specific activists, their contact info, tweets, etc www.404media.co/madison-squa...

Hey pirate pals, a fire destroyed a local motel yesterday. It was used as emergency housing for unhoused families. The fire killed six people and displaced dozens. The United Way has a relief fund. Please help me spread this around. 🧡 uwbroome.harnessgiving.org/campaigns/21...

Anytime I think a Pilates class wasn’t that hard I can guarantee the next day I’ll be feeling it in some small muscle I didn’t even realize was working

Only way this maths is someone being underpaid

a reminder that in the midst of all this multicultural communal joy, we’re still run by people intent on wielding power to harm and destroy. the only way for all this to have meaning beyond cute stories at a soccer tournament is to insist on building the world we’re celebrating now.

Not lost on me that Australia 🇦🇺 & Turkey 🇹🇷 are kicking off a FIFA men’s World Cup game on grass pitch in Vancouver in the exact stadium that hosted the 2015 FIFA women’s World Cup Final between USA 🇺🇸 & Japan 🇯🇵 where we were repeatedly told they couldn’t install grass. Still not okay. Never will be.

Slightly sunburnt, heart full. Had a fantastic two days with @something-witchy.bsky.social. OFMD folks are always a delight.

Idk how I am supposed to focus on work this morning when I’m headed to Salem for @something-witchy.bsky.social this afternoon. My brain is just filled with gay pirates. 🤷🏻

rest well, Jane Yolen, our dragon mom who raised us

Talarico saying he's against "gender reassignment surgery for minors" to lots of nodding and impressed gestures from the Barro/Yglesias crowd and a lot of the politics press is, I think, a great example of how much the well has been poisoned on trans healthcare

A beautiful day in Boston 🌈 We loved celebrating Pride over the weekend with you all and can't wait to do it again in Rhode Island on June 20 🫶

Just discovered the storm window next to my desk had somehow closed...but I know it was open earlier this year. So it must have slid shut on its own? Sometime? And I just didn't notice until now. And now I'm wondering if I thought my old fan wasn't working just because the storm window was closed 😵‍💫

ISA's first Pride with @bostonlegacyfc.com !#UpTheSwans

i was not prepared for how much of adulthood is trying to decide what to eat

😭💔😭💔

HAPPY PRIDE 🌈🌈🌈🌈✨✨✨✨BE FREE, READ GAY BOOKS AND COMICS

I do love that the podiatrist looked at me and warned me about both wearing heels and hiking being things that could make my foot pain worse. Like girl, I am a nerdy indoor enby. I am not wearing heels or going on hikes if I can stay inside with my cats and books.

Oops accidentally freaked my nervous system out by going straight from a stressful work meeting to a totally not stressful medical appointment (but my body is just reacting to medical spaces these days) so THAT WAS FUN. And yes I did get a little treat on my way home. Doing better now.

The problem with making a really good batch of homemade rice krispie treats is then the store-bought ones just taste sad for a while, until you forget how good those homemade ones were 😅

Second extended power outage of the month, really not loving this. I think both were roughly 6 hours long? Glad I have a jackery power station though, at least I don’t have to worry about my phone dying.

MUTUAL AID REQUEST! Recently, Eva was assaulted and her jaw was broken. Some of you may know I have also suffered this same injury and it has impacted my whole life for decades, so I know that it's very important that Eva get good care. If you contribute $50+, I will send you signed book plates.

Swans flying south for the summer. See you down in Pawtucket this Friday! #UpTheSwans

Rest in power, Juniper. www.them.us/story/slain-...

Second watch of #GoodOmens3 made me cry more than the first but mostly because it finally sunk in that this is the end. No more new episodes ever again. The fans take over from here. 🥹

I hope work understands how much I am sacrificing by sending emails when I would much rather be watching Good Omens 3 for a second time instead.

Boston Legacy now has 7 different goalscorers in 9 games: Aïssata Traoré Alba Caño Sammy Smith Nichelle Prince Bianca St-Georges Aleigh Gambone Amanda Gutierres This roster is DEEP

TOTALLY WORTH BEING DEAD AT WORK TOMORROW

Excited for this one!

Their fees were all paid by this fund: www.mwc-casa.org Can we get the #ofmdcraftfair power going and try and raise $300 to cover them? i’m throwing in $50 - who’s with me?

The Chicago Stars have some work to do to make Martin field’s press box accessible! Come along for a game day with me and see why.

The Boston Legacy lead the NWSL in yellow cards & fouls. The Boston Fleet lead the PWHL in hits on Britta Curl. Welcome to Boston sports culture.

Boston LeGAYcy 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈

Pure joy personified. Have a good rest of your night, Legacy fans 🫶

2 goals, 1 point, unending pride. We love you Boston, we do.

Absolutely incredible watching the same ghouls who spent years vilifying trans people moving on to do the same to people with autism.
