The Olympics’ trans policy polices womanhood | Moira Donegan

And it WILL be a choice. There’s money in the ACT to pay to host AFL games for clubs that don’t even go here, there has been money in the APL to prop up other clubs.

That cannot be allowed to be Canberra United’s last game. Not after a record crowd Not after their best season in years The legacy of a home Women’s World Cup and a home Asian Cup cannot be shuttering the country’s only professional women’s club.

lol why aren’t we using MSF????

Ella O'Grady - good at football. Almost like we've been saying that for multiple seasons now.

Once again im asking why are we celebrating the invasion of another nation that had don't anything to us? We only invaded them because the country that invaded us asked us to. All just because of a family squabble.

Jewish MP Gerald Kaufmann in Parliament in 2009. "My Grandmother was ill in bed when the Nazis came to her town, a German soldier shot her dead." "My Grandmother did not die to provide cover for Israel to murder Palestinian Grandmothers in Gaza."

I am so enraged that the Albanese govt is cutting the NDIS - kicking off 160,000 and shrinking it by an overall 300,000 by 2030 - yet refuse to tax gas exporters 25%. Taxing gas revenue would collect $17b a year - more than enough to keep funding the NDIS!!! But no. Screw disabled peeps 🙃 #AusPol

February: Meta employee leaks confidential company memo to the NYT, alerting the public about plans to deploy face rec on RayBans April: Meta announces it plans to track the keystrokes of all employees

What Australia's govt should be doing is planning a controlled, heavily taxed, justice-focused and regulated wind-down of its bloated gas industry right now If they don't, it's going to be a chaotic, profit-driven, unfair and unregulated collapse instead www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

I’m calling APIA v UNSW on Sunday 1️⃣🆚2️⃣ ⚔️ #NPLWNSW

But remember children, we can’t raise the salary cap and have to rely on national team call ups and media popularity lists for players to be compensated close to what they deserve. 🙄🙄🙄

First the NWSL's social account gleefully spotlights Jameis Winston on the sidelines at a Gotham game this season, now the league welcomes the Haslams as owners of a new Columbus side. Women's sports: We don't have to prop up or do business with problematic men just b/c they're rich or famous.

Part of changing our completely broken culture is to stop being polite to ppl who aren't owed kindness & stop inviting rotten people into our spaces. The Epstein Files & other atrocities occur b/c we're worried about protecting the feelings of shitty men or benefiting from proximity to their power.

Per FIFA, the Women's World Ranking Top 10 is finally free of the DPRK menace for now.

Just sobbed hardest I have since my mom died in 2020. She missed these trials by a few months. One of most ruthless cancers. Hard to fathom that maybe she'd still be here. I feel such a hole inside. In case you're wondering if we should fund mRNA research instead of another stupid war ... yes.

Big day in Leichhardt coming up 🔥 I'm on commentary for the NPL Women's NSW game at Lambert Park, tune in at the usual place 🤝 🆚 APIA Leichhardt v Sydney Olympic ⏰ 2:15pm 💻 📱 Football NSW YouTube channel

Hersday Night Football at Lambert Park Ashlie Letta scores, APIA beat Ravens 1-0, through to Round 4 of The Greatest Cup Competition In The World 💎🏆

Personally don't recommend these. As the article notes, these properties are typically achieved through PFAS, which can shed carcinogens in your home (which you then inhale) or come out in the wash (polluting waterways for decades). Will try to do a thread on how to treat stains in the wash.

Another Fifa miracle: train tickets to the MetLife stadium which normally are $12.90 will cost $100 on World Cup match days. What Jesus did with loaves of bread and fishes, Gianni does with dollars.

FIFA's stance is that hosts bear all the costs of hosting the World Cup, and in turn, FIFA bears all the reward

A reminder that the women of the Iranian national soccer team were forced to return to Iran. They did not leave Australia voluntarily! The fact that Iran is currently being illegally bombed by the U.S. does not, in any way, shape or form, make its regime less authoritarian, brutal, and misogynist!

"Are we hoarding all of the wealth for ourselves and destroying civilization as we know it? Sure. Yes. But that doesn't mean people have the right to be mean to us." - billionaires

The anti-migrant sentiment being expressed by a terrifyingly large number of people across the political spectrum has, ultimately, very little to do with the behaviour of actual migrants, and everything to do with anxieties around defending and maintaining white supremacy in the settler colony.

I lost my dad over Easter Going to watch Palace with him was special, to both of us. For so many years it was a shared bond. It brought us joy Loved sharing memories with him, about the grounds I visited & him recalling when he went there before This is a piece of my memories, in his memory #CPFC

This is a victory for the LGBTQ+ community and for our entire city. It’s a reminder that New Yorkers won’t let our history be rewritten. Our administration will keep working to ensure LGBTQ+ New Yorkers can live safely and with dignity in our city.

new communities like... *checks notes* women

would have thought a pope would be comfortable with crosses

I’m back on NPL Women’s NSW commentary today, join me at the usual place 💻 Hills United v Sydney University ⏰ 5:30pm 🏟️ Valentine Sports Park 💻 📱 Football NSW YouTube channel

I'm guessing at half time someone said to lay off the constant physical commentary... It wasn't coming off great.

Feels like a version of this

Comms should probably drop this habit of complementing the technical skills of the Malawi players then saying things like “No doubt, she learnt THAT on the streets” Maybe she learned it in the course of her career as a professional athlete?

Congratulations to Leticia McKenna for making her Matildas debut! 💚💛

That's three incidents in the last week where a player was allowed to continue playing after a head knock, and then being concussion subbed and/or missing a game due to concussion protocols afterwards. Something's gotta give. It's simply not good enough. #NEWvADL #ALeagueMen
