I use Claude (an AI) to scan my posts for spelling and grammar errors. On the most recent post (about the East Wing, link below), I got a really amazing addendum.

She knew what she was doing by writing for the Post. She knew her words would be used to target players like Banda, Kundananji, and Chawinga. She's a bigot who is calling for invasive testing to "solve a problem" that doesn't exist. Its racist transphobic bullshit and has no place in this league
Deeply disappointed in Liz Eddy here, who I've always liked and respected. A reminder that we have a lot of work to do when it comes to educating the public about why trans inclusion isn't just morally correct, but competitively sound share.google/Gjf9a1Sl01eL...

🏳️‍⚧️ Today, and every day, we stand with supporters groups across the NWSL to say - loud and clear: Trans People Belong.

In the stands, on the pitch, in our communities - everywhere.

Everyone deserves to feel safe, respected, and celebrated.

No exceptions. 💙🩶🧡

#TransPeopleBelong
Meg, this is phenomenal, full stop. (But the part about Becky Sauerbrunn at the end was *chef's-kiss-emoji* perfection.

Raise your hand if you forgot that Elizabeth Eddy was still a rostered player in the NWSL. ✋🏽
They have a single game left during her contract; she is done after this season, and they can't make the post-season. So I presume the most they'll say is "please clean out your locker on your way out, and try to keep our name out of your filthy mouth from here forward."

In addition to any moral or competitive arguments,

1. This is a fake problem. There aren't any trans women in NWSL. There aren't any trans women in the immediate pipeline that I'm aware of.

2. Using Banda for the cover photo here is obviously just extremely racist.

Hey Pete! You can just post here like normal, and not post screenshots of you posting to the other place.
OMFG I LOVE THIS. So many physical memories of phone calls wrapped around that single piece of hardware.

@chrismurphyct.bsky.social: "The Republicans attacks on the No Kings protests are sickening.

To them, only pro-Trump speech is protected. If you oppose Trump - you 'hate America' or you're a 'terrorist'.

What they're trying to do is simple: suppress turnout this weekend. Don't let them win."

Can understand not taking Hal but can’t understand taking Shaw over Croix but whatever— it’s just fuel.

Standing and defending the fundamental truths of the Republic means rejecting and opposing loathsome people like Johnson.
Johnson: "We call it the Hate America Rally that will happen Saturday. Let's see who shows up for that. I bet you you'll see Hamas supporters, I bet you'll see antifa types, I bet you'll see Marxists on full display, people who don't want to stand and defend the foundational truths of this republic"
Nevermind multiple FRYS, which refried beans have had the lock on for far too long... gimme a refried FLAUTA, a refried scallion pancake, refried chicken...
To be fair, my feed is squarely in the "why can't we have BOTH?" camp. They can both take long walks into the ocean.
We are now officially at the point where the US federal government shutdown is functionally not addressed in any way on the @nytimes.com home page.

What an absolute joke.

If you are a federal worker, there are several credit unions and other financial institutions that are offering zero interest loans during the government shutdown.

Please go to my website for more information: www.sanders.senate.gov/resources-fo...
The US federal government shutdown is now so minimal of a news story that the current home page of both the @washingtonpost.com and @nytimes.com apps have ZERO STORIES OR UPDATES about it. It’s like our media no longer gives a shit about a MASSIVE thing that should not be this humdrum.
Man, early TiVo brought SO MANY OF US together!

Let’s be clear: Donald Trump and Congressional Republicans forced a government shutdown tonight.

Rather than address the health care crisis that they created just earlier this year, they refuse to come to the table and do their jobs.

What happened to the art of the deal?

The president just gathered the highest ranking officers in the military to tell them that he may order them to kill American citizens -- and that they better follow his orders. All in response to a series of crises that have no basis in reality.

I don't know how to yell any louder.
