When I saw the news of the Nets planning to hire Ime Udoka as their head coach, my heart sank.

Did anyone stop to think about the women in the Celtics and Nets organizations?

It’s a slap in the face to all those women, and women everywhere.

"I only wish we could cancel the rabidly racist White men in our culture and politics, just as we’ve done for an ignorant Black rapper who makes really ugly shoes." ⁦@KarenAttiah⁩ https://t.co/KQYD3vLWiG

People in the US tend to misunderstand how much energy is consumed in other countries as well as the emissions they produce. Even when it comes to Europe's energy crisis. There is fundamentally less consumption to reduce, especially for poor people.

This story should be essential reading for everyone, especially anyone who thinks online harassment isn’t a big deal. There is NO RECOURSE when people stalk, threaten, harass, defame, violate, terrorize, and SWAT you, as long as they do it anonymously on the internet.

Let's be real, this battle ain't easy... but I'm still here. I hope my story helps somebody. @PlayersTribune

The newsletter this week is me thinking out loud about a central tension in tech (but in lots of areas of life too) between people focused on building at all costs and maintainers, who see value in strengthening the things we’ve already built https://t.co/34kku94Jby

The Lincoln Terrace tennis courts lie on the border of Crown Heights and Brownsville, which has some of the highest crime rates in the city. And yet the tennis is remarkable. Competitive matches can rival the U.S. Open for drama. https://t.co/m9uyU2uOFw

“I’m just Serena” is the most professional way I’ve heard someone say “Do you know who the fuck I am?”

[Adam Zagoria @AdamZagoria]

She's almost 41 years old, a mom, and has played 6 matches in a year -- and she just beat the world No. 2 to advance to the 3rd round of the US Open.

It's pretty incredible, the whole thing.

[Scott Hechinger @ScottHech]

This is extraordinary journalism. Again from Bloomberg. Data analysis: Massive increases in arrests for low-level crimes—of poverty, health, housing—have done opposite of reducing violent crime. Violence only increased. A stunning indictment of policing.https://t.co/0ba2C2NVzc

[Alissa Walker @awalkerinLA]

This is a story about Elon Musk's now-successful attempt to steer U.S. cities away from proven transportation solutions — but it's also a story about the desperation of elected officials who will try anything to fix their city's problems https://t.co/s1MDTnynzJ

The @thenation reposts Frederick Douglass's Fourth of July speech every Fourth and it's bad ass

I wrote in @politico about how democratic backsliding helps explain what's going on in abortion politics and policy.

It's not just state policy divergence--it's that democratic backsliding fuels it.

Builds on work with the legendary @cwarshaw.

The city's lifeguard crisis continues: Some NYC public pools -- from Harlem to Bushwick -- were inexplicably locked today, despite assurance from the Parks Department that all facilities would be staffed. Employees told us not enough lifeguards showed up https://t.co/DemY3L8hNC

[E.W. Niedermeyer @Tweetermeyer]

"Ban cars" always struck me as more slogan than specific policy proposal, and @BrooklynSpoke does a good job of explaining the actual agenda behind it here.

"Question the car monoculture/monopoly" doesn't have the same ring, but it broadens the appeal to more people.

For @Curbed I took a stroll around Hoboken to figure out how they've managed to avoid a single traffic fatality in four years

Last month @LMSacasas suggested that the internet isn’t a time, but a place. Specifically, the past. For Galaxy Brain I spoke to him/expanded on the idea. I think it explains why we are so exhausted by information & why our politics & culture feel so stuck https://t.co/CKlb1j6FDw
