The increase in long COVID cases isn’t slowing down. The number of people receiving ME/CFS diagnoses as a result isn’t decreasing. These conditions are becoming more common, not less. open.substack.com/pub/centerle...

Doctor: so, we can’t correct scoliosis, but we can stop it from progressing

There is another route this could go. Just give wnba players shares of ownership in which they get paid out whenever teams get sold. If ownership values don't matter to the wnba. Either profits matter or ownership value matters. Can't be both.

Mark Davis paid $2M to buy the Las Vegas Aces in 2021.

$40M training facility opens in 2023.

3 titles in 4 years. Valuation in June 2025 made them worth $310M. Pretty sure that’s going to be higher next time.

15,400% increase so far.

He invested. Time for the WNBA to put that investment back

I used to always tell white people that one of the biggest indicators of white privilege is how their problems are presented.

Jenn Q. @jennqueen.bsky.social · 3d

It’s wild how words change depending on who’s affected.

When drugs hit Black communities, it was a “crack epidemic.”

When drugs hit white communities, it became a “health crisis.”

That’s what we call a dog whistle. The language changes when the skin color does.

There’s a young Black boy in my neighborhood that most people would describe as a YN but he was always friendly & respectful to me. I would give him snacks after school & ask about his day. when he was in 7th grade, one day I randomly asked him “what’s making your heart so sad?”

"The shape of the financial system has shifted from where it was in the Great Financial Crisis, from a bank-centric hub-and-spoke system with the banks in the middle and everyone else around the periphery to more of a web, with private credit more central in that web." - @markzandi.bsky.social
