#NAFO. Italian in Italy. I really don't like and often talk about Russian terrorists, transphobia, homophobia, bigotry, T*ERFs, antisemites. I support #Ukraine and #Taiwan. Trans people are good people. Love #Nuclear energy. Hate #Hamas @CuginaDiVe on X

Buongiorno, ho portato Emolga al mare e sono stata molestata da una baby gang di Marmore che avevano un problema con il feticismo dei piedi. Ho pensato di farvi un saluto giusto per far presente che, nonostante tutto, sono ancora viva. Nessuno squalo mi ha mangiata a Sabaudia 🦈 Voi tutto ok? 💛

7 mo into Covid-19 after grueling 24hr caring for child with the disease, who survived. Showered at hosp, returned to office & informed staff, wasn't retiring the next mo, as had planned. Photo of that moment. This is my "diary". Nobody can change the reality of pandemic for those who lived it...

One of the frustrating things about reporting on trans internal refugees is that the people who you're able to interview tend to be ones who managed to find some level of stability - the people moving from couch to couch to street to couch are harder to reach and more interview-avoidant.

I landed on internal refugee over internally displaced person bc the latter sounds so sterile. Refugee conjures up homelessness and extreme poverty with slim odds for improvement, which is accurate association for trans internal refugees. Internal is an important qualifier for the reasons you gave.

A bunch of transphobic people go into a Seattle game, a city that is struggling to manage the massive influx of trans refugees from red states, and they got booed by the fans for wearing transphobic shirts. And now they're acting like victims over it.

This is precisely what the right does. They manufacture a story and build it into their culture war narrative to attack progressive institutions. The WNBA is majority Black and about a third are lesbian, bisexual, and queer. It's everything MAGA hates so they have to destroy it.

This is what the right does. They find places filled with progressives and insert themselves to make it political. Someone paid thousands of dollars for protesters to go sit courtside holding transphobic at a WNBA game. Naturally, the fans and players react and Fox News turns it into a story.

screenshot of a news article on the OutKick website, with a top banner indicating it is linked from Fox News. Under the category 'OUTKICK SPORTS,' the headline reads in large, bold text: 'Sophie Cunningham fans allege Storm players, exec heckled girls during game over support of women's sports.' The subheadline below it states, 'Witnesses say fans and a team co-owner berated girls wearing XX-XY Athletics shirts at the Seattle WNBA game.' The article is credited to Jackson Thompson of OutKick and lists a publication date of July 29, 2026, 5:02pm EDT. Below the publication information is a row of social media sharing buttons and reaction emojis showing various user interactions."

It's really infuriating how the right has to politicize and wreck everything. The WNBA is an amazingly diverse and progressive league where a bunch of the players are all dating each other. Now they're inserting themselves to make everything a culture war and tear the league apart.

I didn't clip it but he went on to complain about how the league is run by militant lesbians and then mocks Paige Bueckers and her girlfriend Azzi Fudd. It's just blatant homophobia.

The entire premise is that women's sports are a joke and it's not a real sports league like the men's leagues. None of these people give a damn about women's sports. They just wanted to be transphobic and decided to use this as a wedge issue.

Casual reminder that the original plan for Ben Shapiro's "Lady Ballers" was for it to be an undercover documentary where dudes sign up to compete in women's sports, only to find out that places that allow trans athletes to compete actually have rules and standards.

Ben Shapiro spends his entire show mocking the WNBA and its players. Including a montage his team put together of missed shots at the All-Star game which he laughs at. It's incredible how much transphobia can just let you be an open misogynist.

Ben Shapiro and his Daily Wire Indoor Kids should challenge the WNBA to a head-to-head competition. Shapiro can pick any five players on a current roster. The worst five, players who never even leave the bench. We've never seen them with the warmups off. They'd still destroy these boys 102-3.

As bad as things are in the US, they look positively utopian compared to the UK. We at least still have major orgs fighting for us and the Dems have not completely abandoned trans people. I have no hope for the UK anytime soon. And it's only likely to get worse with a likely reform government.
