It’s hard to view this as anything less than intentionally murdering a kid because what the hell kind of person restricts water intake for athletes? Especially in the sun during extreme heat? It’s common knowledge that is incredibly INCREDIBLY dangerous

This story should have more attention. ASU's idiot coach brought in some military prick to run a grueling boot camp-style workout in the heat, which included restricting water intake. NHL prospect player suffers a heat stroke and is probably going to die from it. arizonasports.com/ncaa/arizona...

Due to the unique way the BBC is funded by you we can have a man stand in the sea wearing a shirt harassing desperate people fleeing Afghanistan

Apple has now caved to the Trump administration’s petty renaming of Lake Ontario, following Google’s lead. It’s as good a moment as any to consider alternatives.

Google has now renamed Lake Ontario for US users. They don’t even show the real name in brackets. I used a VPN to compare: Apple hasn’t renamed it (at least not yet), nor has Dutch service Here WeGo or OpenStreetMap. Yet another reason to ditch Google, and US tech more broadly.

Yeshayahu Leibowitz used the term Judeo-Nazis over 30 years ago to describe elements of the Israeli establishment that called for breaking the bones of Palestinians. This is now mainstream in Israel. www.youtube.com/watch?v=YzSZ...

Since its inception the American university (which is yet another colonial bequeath) has made sure that Black, brown and indigenous people stay out. And by out I mean as students, faculty and admin but also out of history, literature, philosophy. 1/3

the Eaton fire was started by Southern California Edison (a utility monopoly) and the Palisades Fire was allegedly the result of arson never underestimate the motivation rich people have for scapegoating and punishing the unhoused for crimes they didn't commit

The only conversation worth having is how Black people are overpoliced & over-punished & held to different standards in all aspects of life. That there is an outrage when Black people transgress that isn’t there when their non-Black counterparts do.

there is no such thing as "age verification." All "age verification" is actually "identity verification." You can coat it in glitter and "privacy-preserving" wrapping paper. But in the end, mandating age verification means mandating surveillance be built into software and hardware. Period.

a depressing number of these guys don’t actually have a sexual abuse allegations section on wikipedia despite having these allegations because some fan of evopsych on Wikipedia says “twitter was isn’t a source!!” every time someone tries to add it

Generative AI is the tool and aesthetic of fascism, and that aesthetic only appeals to middle aged divorced sex predators, billionaires, guys who drive cybertrucks, and guys who don't tip. It's the aesthetic of losers, miserable assholes, and guys with a sexual allegations section in their wiki.

Minoritised academics face organised harassment for writing about racism, transphobia, genocide, etc. They/we are subject to forms of hostile exposure (whether in media or politics), which proves the point for why such scholarship is necessary in the first place. They/we all deserve so much better.

Funny to me that there are white professors at elite British universities out here straight up plagerizing and making up data yet they aren’t scrutinized. The idea that he was over-promoted when white ppl have been over-promoted as a standard reeks of racism The differences are astounding

Please stop paying for anything Harry Potter. This is where your money is going. At this point, you're not an ally, you're an abuser and we're your victim.

Golden State Valkyries forward Gabby Williams: “There’s a lot of discourse around trans athletes and what they can compete in. I would welcome a trans athlete on my team or against my team. Anytime. I don’t think it’s a problem in the world, it’s just another way to kind of attack trans people.”

This is rough but I think it talks about a lot of what is missing from the Cunningham/WNBA discourse. Namely, that trans people are not hypothetical thought experiments. They are real people who are being genocided by our government & any coverage that doesn't center that reality misses the mark.

the answer is always to disavow it

If you're there already, you've already consumed the frame. The point is that they want to remove trans people from public life, and sports has become a major terrain of contention. The point is that they are doing eugenics. They want to kill little trans girls.
