Hey @WTA, do you think it’s cool for your #1 player to pose wearing fur? Is this bloody image what you want? @SabalenkaA is foul and disgusting for these nasty photos. #fur isn’t sexy. 🤮🤮🤮 #murderer #AnimalAbusers #AnimalCruelty @WTA_insider #tennis @AustralianOpen @Tennis

@politvidchannel @NormOrnstein FIFA has an ethics code? That’s the funniest thing I will hear all year

[Laura @Mi_Chiamo_Laura]

@Tennis Aryna Sabalenka wears fur, so honestly f*ck her image until she acts like a civilized person.

Hey @rickygervais, Mortality was great. Have you read “Transmetropolitan”? - Spider Jerusalem has a “bowel disrupter” with settings like “rectal volcano” and “unspeakable gut horror.” You and Warren Ellis might have some interesting chats.

@MotherJones And with this headless female torso you are reducing pregnant women to their wombs. Pregnant women have faces and identies.

[Laura @Mi_Chiamo_Laura]

@MotherJones Oh f**k off would you please? Jon Stewart can joke about whatever he wants. Don’t like it? Don’t watch.

Good. Albanese is a brilliant woman who demonstrates courage that most public figures lack. As an alum of @NorthwesternU and @UWMadison, I would be happy for either of school to have her on faculty.

A prediction re Francesca Albanese’s future affiliation: some University in Canada/US/Australia/UK will offer her a job because she’s a victim of the enemies of free speech, viz. Jews. Universities are on break, so it might take a few weeks. But it’ll happen.@UNWatch @daverich1

@TheTennisLetter Jannik Sinner winning @Wimbledon after that crushing loss at @rolandgarros! 🎾❤️🇮🇹

[Laura @Mi_Chiamo_Laura]

@Tennis This particular piece of information should be immediately reported to the prestigious Journal of Useless Statistics for Generating Internet Controversy.

Maybe it's time for employers and the #government to rethink how they treat #workers.

Charles Dickens published "A Christmas Carol" in 1843. In that book, Ebenezer Scrooge's loyal clerk, Bob Cratchit, earned 15 shillings per week. For those unfamiliar with the concept of a "shilling," 20 shillings = £1.

[Laura @Mi_Chiamo_Laura]

In other words, the combined income of two people working full time at the federal minimum wage earn $10,000/year LESS than Bob Cratchit, the most famous allegory for social injustice in all of literature.

[Laura @Mi_Chiamo_Laura]

@TennisChannel He doesn’t need a new coach. His results with JCF show that. He needs a sports psychologist because sometimes his body shows up to matches and his brain is elsewhere. That’s why Jannik is the superior player: he never leaves his brain in the locker room.

[Laura @Mi_Chiamo_Laura]

No.

[#AusOpen @AustralianOpen]

The rise and rise of Felix Auger-Aliassime in 2025 needs to be studied and celebrated 👌

Will this momentum lead him to lift the #AO26 trophy?

@CalltoActivism Of all the ways we can and should criticize Karoline Leavitt, this closeup is not even in the top 100. Keep your eye on the ball.

[Laura @Mi_Chiamo_Laura]

@patriottakes Yes, I’m sure their conversation produced it’s fair share of xenophobia, bigotry, and conspiracy theories.

[Laura @Mi_Chiamo_Laura]

@JDVance This loss of life is tragic, indeed.
But why do we need to teach the #TrumpAdministration the difference between a "young girl" and a "young woman"? --Ella Cook was a young woman; a 12-year-old is a young girl.
Learning the difference will help decipher the #Epstein files.
