Imane Khelif, Barbra Banda, now the Cunningham circus - it's kind of amazing how many "trans women in sports" controversies don't actually involve a single trans woman
A good commissioner steps in now before every WNBA game becomes a rightwing performance space, like school board meetings were during peak CRT. You just have to throw the hammer down on this. Do not give them an inch.

i bring a sort of ‘i fear neither pain nor death’ energy to the pedestrian/driver interaction that drivers don’t really like
It’s so funny (and even more telling) that the owners of professional sports teams acknowledge that there’s a problem with having an enormous wealth gap, but it only matters to them when it’s the difference between different magnitudes of billionaire.
let's all celebrate the time the US stole a canadian baseball team, here on Canada-US Friendship Day. yall want a weird hat
Just a quick reminder for when you’re thinking about who should vote in a democracy: the masses won us self-government and rights while billionaires gave us pervert glasses and personal-data harvesting.
This shit is not inevitable, it could be made illegal tomorrow if our governments weren't in the pocket of Big Pervert.

I thought this too. Toronto fights w ford have been demoralizing. Still more ongoing. But it’s real. Really real.
Maggie Helwig@maggiehelwig.bsky.social · 2w agoIt's been so long since there's been any kind of good news on any political front, I kind of don't know how to process it. I'm still expecting it to be taken back tomorrow. But it seems that it's real.
My friend who works for the bridge construction consortium tells me staff were told to stay home today so there would be parking for guests. soooooo windsor.
The people who get paid to keep things exactly as they are have some very well meaning advice for people who want desperately needed change on how to effect that change: wait for a more convenient season. More convenient for who? hey great question—sadly we’re out of time
After months of “we’re an Ai driven digital marketing firm!” cold emails, I’ve received my first “we’re an Anti-Ai, human-led digital marketing firm!” email. You love to see it.
hey does anyone know where i can read a profile of some dumb asshole that fell for a reality show hosts bull shit and it took a decade for them to realize theyd been duped? oh every day in every major publication? awesome thanks
To make my weekend easier & relaxing, my first @thestar.com column back from vacation is about transportation identity politics. Keeping people divided is useful for some political interests & ambitions. Maybe it’s good to resist that.

Loving the smell of all this global stability and national unity this morning!!!!!
When a promotion for an autograph signing accidently looks like a dream match.
Me: "It's time to start eating healthy." Lettuce: "I'm going to give you explosive diarrhea!" Chips and cookies in my pantry: "I would never do that to you."
Folks, I am a positive person who is happy in my life and who tries to see people’s good side wherever possible and I cannot explain to you how much I fucking hate JKR’s loathsome guts.
Didn’t realize how basically all of my favourite things require the ability to walk around.
Kristie@knairn.bsky.social · 4w agoSprained my ankle pretty bad last night and I gotta say, I don’t care for it.

It’s weirdly comforting that something in me broke so completely on that day that no sports loss can ever hurt me again.

Even though I know in my heart that the winner of this game is getting eaten alive by France, I just really wanted it be us.
