A friend noted recently that if universities were truly the left-wing bastions they are often accused of being, then capitalism wouldn't be thriving so fully (both within and without their halls).

They/Them said with some nuance: as if i came to masculinity through the womenโ€™s gate, as if a daughter who grew into her father but not like trans, but like trans or a transformation without catalyst or smoke....

They/Them by Danez Smith... phew! (Spoiler alert! Had to share the end but the whole thing is fire.)

of course you should address me in the plural.
said short: i am everyone. i am everything.

Finally getting around to reading Rehearsals for Living. Hopeful and heartbreaking. But especially great at putting the finger on... well, a lot! It is helping me a lot as I prep for my History of Sport Futures course in the fall.

But did any of these studies measure how great it feels to stretch, especially after? No.
Willing to accept it won't affect injury, but won't convince me it doesn't feels better than the alternative.

Today in James Baldwin already said it: โ€œThe children are always ours, every single one of them, all over the globe; and I am beginning to suspect that whoever is incapable of recognizing this may be incapable of morality.โ€

CEO pay is up 1,085% since 1978, while typical worker pay is up just 24%.ย 

Why do we always hear "we can't afford to pay our workers more" but never "we can't afford to pay our CEO more"?

The fatalistic mood is getting to me as well, because every time I scroll on here it's sort of bleak and I do not last long. I post very little as a result. Maybe it's my own fault for currating the list of accounts to follow that I have.

We need to do better to make sure our players learn the basics. You can be managed to make plays work, but if you don't even have the basics of precision passes, through balls, reading opponents, and just the instincts, then the best coaches can't be expected to create miracles.

Why do we allow vets with absolutely zero left to contribute to clog the #Canwnt ranks? They did this with Sinclair past her time and learned nothing... Now it's the turn of Sonis and Fleming. Huitema also giving nothing but at least you could argue the midfield isn't being useful. So frustrating.
