I don't think transgender athletes are the problem facing girls and women in sports.
Investigators say former coach Sean Gardner created videos showing close-up images of at least 10 minors naked or undressing, which they recovered from his computers last year while investigating reports of sexual abuse.

Gardner has pleaded not guilty and has been jailed pending trial.

Yesterday a patron asked if I knew where you could rent movies cause none of the Redboxes were still around in our town (I hadn't noticed) and I pointed right behind her and said, "I don't know about renting, but we have movies and tv series right there you can check out with your library card." 🥰
When we talk about physical media, we are often only taking about personal collections but a big part of shunning the current digital ecosystem is supporting your local library. Not just for print books and periodicals but for movies, games and other medias too. Get. A. Library. Card.

Yes, I was getting so bored with Eteri's revolving door of Underfed Disposable Quad-Jumping Teens with their heavy skates with the tights pulled down over them that looked like clodhoppery horses' hooves (their feet looked heavier than their bodies). WOMEN'S skating is BACK, baby! #GPF #GPFigure

So my takeaways are that Yuma Kagiyama and Alysa Liu are both unstoppable and only get better and better, Amber Glenn and Kaori Sakamoto are still the GOATS, and the cherry on top was Shun Sato skating the best I've seen him. #GPFigure #GPF

Forgot to mention.
The wildest thing about Alysa Liu (🇺🇲) winning the #GPFigure Final.
The fact she won without winning either the short program or the free skate.
🤯
Second in the short.
Third in the free.
The only 1 out of all winners to do that.
Truly insane.

And let's not forget. Conservatives love to accuse women of "government dependency," when what they want to replace it with is "dependency on one individual man." Yeah, great game plan for life there...what could possibly go wrong?

guys, Alysa has been insanely consistent this entire season. I think she's winning an Olympic medal. tough to say which colour at this point but she will definitely be on that podium in Milan.

It's CRAZY how for a long time womens was the boring category *coughcauseRussianscough* but now it's THEEEEEE category in figure skating on this Olympic year. #GPFigure #GPF
All women 200+ points is kinda insane. The women’s category is so exciting right now, the Olympics will be a lot of fun (and probably some heartbreaks). This podium is fantastic (but it would be equally fantastic with the 4–6 finishers). #GPF #GPFigure

Mark summed it up well: figure skating needs "characters," personalities for fans to root for. Alysa and Kaori definitely fill the bill, but one is leaving, so if Alysa's staying, I'm glad. And Amber carries a banner for so many people for different reasons. #GPFinal #GPF

My husband just described Alysa as the only figure skater who seems like she could just as easily have been a skateboarder #GPF #GPFigure

Oh if I ever got rich, you can bet I would. But idk if I can take flying to Japan again until I can afford at least Economy+ for more leg room hahaha #16hoursineconomyisnotfortheweak
This is why I definitely need to go to see an international skating competition in Japan cuz they do it so much better than anywhere else in the world #GPF #GPFigure ⛸️

Especially the rumors about her dad. Yikes is the mildest way to say it. Eugenicist is the more harsh way to say it.

I assume everyone questioning Alysa's chill wasn't around to see her as a child prodigy. Didn't hear the shit we all did about how controlled her childhood was. She has said she quit because she wanted to live a LIFE. Now she just skates for her OWN SELF. Of course she's chill. #GPF #GPFigure

Plot twist: i don't care what order of the three of them, I just want them all on the Olympic podium. That's the podium I want in Milan. The order doesn't matter to me.
cool to just know that if kaori goes clean, she’s winning that OGM. my soul yearns for amber but let me just yearn for a kaori win and alysa amber podium finish 😭 because she really really deserves that shit

Alysa Liu coming back to skating after 2+ years retired and then winning a World Championships and then winning a GP Final -- while being the most unbothered anyone could be -- is the stuff of legend and I can't believe I'm witnessing it 😆 #GPF #GPFigure
