New Orleans updates: 10 dead, dozens injured after vehicle plows into crowd in 'terrorist attack' Ten people were killed and dozens injured when a pickup truck plowed into a crowd on Bourbon Street in New Orleans.

2025 is off to a horrific start. Praying for all the families affected. πŸ™πŸΎ abcnews.go.com/US/1-dead-ve...

You know, it was really only a matter of time before someone realized their truck was a more effective weapon of mass violence than their gun

glad to come across this in my feed. as a former D1 college athlete (track & field), I want to see more stories and research on the trauma many of us experienced as college athletes.

maybe i’ll write about my own experience one day.

thanks for writing and sharing.

Some good news. It was nice to be recognized by our faculty senate for what I can only summarize as kindness. 🧑

nice echo chamber you got there would be a shame if you just kept on enjoying it and got a lot of fulfillment from it and lived your life happily and it never adversely affected your mental health

Just be prepared. We've all seen that headline going around today that Bluesky is the current #1 app, and X dropped out of the top 25.

That means the absolute worst people in the world are going to be coming here trying to turn THIS place into just as much of a shithole. Block them. Don't engage.

I think one thing that’s impossible to overlook or ever forget again regardless of whatever needs to happen politically and socially going forward for a better world is how many people openly delight in hate and potentially dominating others. It’s not even hidden but celebrated and bragged about.

Pretty much. I feel like that’s the case with all of these bitter (usually yt) collegiate women athletes, like Riley Gaines. Can’t hack it as an athlete so they stir up controversy for clout.

Volleyball players, coach sue San Jose State, Mountain West for allowing transgender athlete The plaintiffs include SJSU co-captain Brooke Slusser, assistant coach Melissa Batie-Smoose and two former Spartans players.

Wow. The player’s own teammates and former assistant coach are plaintiffs. Good call by The Athletic to avoid outing an athlete who has not publicly ID’d as transgender.

San Jose State volleyball saga nears end with new SJSU questions - Outsports As SJSU approaches the tournament a new report says political pressure led to Wyoming's forfeit, despite a split player's vote.

People who scream to keep politics out of sports are real quiet now

β€œDocuments and emails sourced by WyoFile noted that certain state elected officials influenced, if not forced, the university’s decision over objections from the team and the athletic department.”

I’m on my second tenure track job and going up for tenure this year. I do tweet, uh, post about life on the tenure track in addition to musings/critiques of the sports media.

I have 50% administrative duties at UTK and have 3 children, so I am publishing and conferencing less than I’d like.

Picked up a boatload of new followers during the mass migration from X so here’s a bit of an introduction:

I’m a sports media scholar at the Univ. of Tennessee, Knoxville. I primarily study constructions of gender and race in sports media, especially w/r/t those working in the industry.

He would need to be confirmed by the Senate. Please call your senators. Make your views about public health clear. Over 1 million Americans died from COVID-19 alone. This is not a position for political games and unqualified people. We need and deserve a head of HHS who will protect public health.
