Bounce is here! Not quite sure whether to say this took me nine or fifteen years or some even larger number of years. It’s been a long stretch. Tyu @Liebenwalde, Raiford Guins, Noah Springer, @mitpress for helping this come into the world.

@HZeavin @mauldin_laura i love breakaway matcha :-)

@Richard__Beck @brett_kashmere may have some other good ideas on this

[carlin @carlinwing]

@Richard__Beck there’s also david halberstam’s great book The Amateurs which isn’t a history but is gorgeous.

[carlin @carlinwing]

@Richard__Beck j. a. mangan and the british school of sports studies more generally talk about amateurism and its ties to ideals of muscular christianity and john macaroon’s stuff on pierre de coubertin and the history of the olympics also might be useful.

@Dave_Parisi @ROMchip_Journal thx @parisi - i was pysched to get to contribute to the issue!

[Dave Parisi @Dave_Parisi]

This issue of @ROMchip_Journal is packed full of fun pieces, see the thread for a rundown. But esp psyched for @carlinwing's piece that runs through a game history of bounce, going back to the 17th c.

[Psychosocial Foundation @PsychosocialFo1]

@frozenpandaman @danmall ty!

[carlin @carlinwing]

@hhnnccnnll @BayoAkomolafe has a critical frame for approaching trauma that may be useful although i don’t think it addresses The Body Keeps the Score directly,

[carlin @carlinwing]

we’re a quarter of the way there but have a ways to go to support this beautiful elder and friend move to a new home after losing her fight against eviction. https://t.co/rFv0zZsHLd

[carlin @carlinwing]

Amanda is a dear friend, activist, peacebuilder, and elder who has been a source of incredible support and strength for me and so many others in Los Angeles in our hardest moments. Now she is losing her housing and needs support in turn. https://t.co/rFv0zZKQZl
