After careful consideration and reviewing the current eligibility guidelines,
I’m officially declaring myself a @WNBA prospect.
If simply declaring who you are is all that’s required, then I meet every single requirement necessary to compete in the WNBA.
My team and I have carefully examined the WNBA’s eligibility criteria and governing framework surrounding self-identification and inclusion. Based on the current guidelines, I can and am officially declaring my eligibility for the upcoming WNBA draft in April 2027.
I know my presence on the court will stir up strong opinions.
I am definitely not here to mock, make fun of, or disrespect any community or personal choices.
I’m simply asking that the current rules be applied equally to everyone — the rules that represent the very values many WNBA players and coaches have publicly advocated for.
My team and I are prepared to ensure these guidelines are applied equally, consistently, and without exception, and I look forward to the #WNBA honoring its stated principles.
See you at training camp.

We’re releasing body-worn camera video from the arrest of 14-year-old Rashawn Knight to counter misinformation the case has generated.
Around 2:45 a.m. on July 20, District 3 Patrol officers and our K9 Unit responded after reports armed individuals were burglarizing cars.
When officers arrived, they watched Knight and another teen break into a car. In the video, you hear an alarm sound before officers make contact.
Officers identified themselves and told the suspects to stop. Both ran away while armed with guns.
Officers chased Knight and gave more loud commands to stop, which Knight ignored.
Officers had probable cause to arrest Knight for multiple vehicle burglaries and reasonably believed he was armed. Considering the danger to officers and the community due to the armed fleeing suspects, the Police Service Dog (PSD) was deployed as the most effective way to stop Knight.
The PSD stopped Knight by biting him. During the arrest, Knight dropped the gun.
On the ground, Knight reached toward his waistband. Believing he could be reaching for a weapon, an officer delivered distraction strikes and told Knight to put his hands behind his back. The handler disengaged the PSD from Knight.
Investigators confirmed the handgun was stolen. Officers found a window-breaker used to burglarize cars in Knight’s pocket.
JFRD evaluated Knight at the scene and took him to a hospital. After being medically cleared, he was taken downtown, where he was interviewed and arrested.
Knight is charged with 9 counts of Armed Burglary, 1st-degree felonies, and Possession of a Firearm by a Minor.
After a detention hearing, a judge ordered Knight held in secure detention.
JSO conducted a comprehensive administrative review for the officers’ conduct and found no violations.
There are social media claims this was a jaywalking case; the facts are straightforward. Officers responded to suspects actively committing vehicle burglaries while armed. Knight ran from police, ignored repeated commands to stop, was armed with a stolen gun, and was taken into custody.
We encourage the public to watch the body-worn camera video and rely on verified facts rather than incomplete or misleading social media posts.
Smoking weed delays emotional processing and maturity.
If you started smoking weed as a teenager, and you haven’t stopped in your 20’s-30’s, mentally, you’re still a teenager.
If you started smoking weed to cope with a traumatic experience, you are delaying your own healing by burying it instead of actually processing it.
As a former pothead, I know potheads have a hard time accepting this truth. Even going to the point of denial
there is literally not a single other food youtuber doing it like this guy. If you don't know abut Joe you would never in a million years guess how the video goes after he gets his order taken.
The amount of ppl who really just out here with no savings, ROTH, 401k, just nothing is scary. Idc if it’s $20, put it in a Roth, HYSA, 401k, something! Teach your kids financial literacy.
Not Proud of it, man enough to say it.
I had breakfast this morning in Greenwich Village NYC and a man sat next to me on his own.
Somebody I idolised growing up watching NFL. But out of respect ( like a scared little girl ) I didn’t even ask for a picture.
Not proud of it, man enough to say it.
Have a great day in New York @JJWatt

A day I’ll never forget. The GOAT himself @JJWatt came to O’ Haras and put down a PINT of Guinness in 1.5 seconds just to get a picture with me!
Truly so grateful for this moment, a story I’ll be able to tell my family and friends for the rest of my life ❤️
