idk it just feels like at this point it’s clear that sustained use of AI does something to your brain and for some people that ends up being truly life ruining and i’m like why would you not want to protect your brain.

Damn, so true. Athletes really just can't win when they're being pieces of shit. Thanks for bringing this to light.

"athletes can't win" so who's forcing athletes to have shitty bigoted opinions

full-time archery and not just me doing short warmups and sessions on my own starts again on friday!!! 🎉🎉🎉
I'd really appreciate it if a woman would run for a high profile office as a Democrat with the same political platform as Mamdani and El-Sayed, instead of feeling like her gender makes it so that she had to run the most Diet MAGA campaign to be taken seriously. It's depressing.
honestly i’m just really frustrated and exhausted by the constantly expressed belief that a) it is hopeless to expect athletes to have decent politics b) it is impossible for anyone to have grown or changed over the course of their life
When I say I'm a free speech absolutist this is what I'm talking about

El-Sayed to Rogers: "I'm going to put a figurative tattoo on your forehead. And every time people see your face, they're going to say 'corporatist shill, opioid-epidemic starter.'" Damn.
Nathan Kalman-Lamb@nkalamb.bsky.social · 4h agoI don't think I can remember a US politician with better messaging than this man. Ever. And that includes Mamdani. Run him for President.

for as much as the conversation is always “ugh the left is mad caitlin won’t be an SJW” that really isn’t it at all. the right decided to use her as a cudgel against a sport with a lot of black and queer athletes and the left asked her to say that’s bad.
kwisatz haderade (#FreeSkylar)@booksandbows.bsky.social · 4h agothe clark stuff is odd bc it isn’t really the left who politicized her. it was the right holding her up as an excuse to be racist to angel reese and to “own” the wnba by having a white straight woman come in and be the talk of the town. they’re the ones who made her a culture war pawn.

This article is poorly thought out trash. He presents the false choice of either taking the right-wing hateful position, or being silent. He doesn't look at all of the athletes and sports personalities that speak with clarity on political issues from the position of kindness shared by 80%+ of people

[The Athletic editorial - April 1947] - the Jackie Robinson experiment needs to end. Let's prioritize Cap Anson values.
if josh or skylar god forbid ever pull a sophie for some insane reason, i am legit never committing to a fave again bc i couldn’t possibly ever do more digging or have access to better information than i do now to feel confident about it
Also if your image is adopted by weird racists who don’t even like basketball, don’t just pretend like it’s not happening.
“oh, you want to know if your favorite athlete thinks you’re a full person? you’re a hypocrite if you get mad if he says no btw” ????
what the fuck is this absolute fucking horseshit

"It’s not a different opinion. It’s straight up bigotry ... that we wouldn’t accept or hand wave away if it were targeted towards any other group." Every cis person who follows me for WNBA content better read this. Pay for a sub, you owe the trans community that much & Frankie is a hell of a writer
Frankie de la Cretaz@thefrankiedlc.news · 14h agoThis 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.
well it sucks that i saw the perez hilton thing before attempting to sleep since now i'm sad about my sister again but that's why we have marijuana.
hey guys do not google what is happening with perez hilton if self harm is a trigger for you!!!!! i saw a screenshot that did not have a content warning or a filter on it and it is extremely upsetting.
a lot of people will respond with "yeah, that's how taxes work." but it's not just charity, it's an investment that will drive down prices for everyone. good people are ok with charity, but it misses that a lot of public investments are net positives for everyone but the ultra wealthy.
USA TODAY Opinion@usatodayopinion.usatoday.com · 2d agoOpinion: Mamdani's idea may sound appealing, but it's NYC taxpayers who will take the hit, subsidizing discounts they may never even use.
Yeah I've seen enough, the Padres are going to win this division
