watching Disney's UWCL coverage is like going in and out of a lucid dream why is there a dog why is the couch spinning why do the adverts cut right into analysis
Why does women's football coverage always have to be so gimmicky? It's the Champions League, not blue peter. Put some pundits who know about the teams in a studio, make sure the tech works and have a decent bit of time for build up and analysis to contextualise everything.
Enjoyed this article about the growing number of men adopting cats, bucking gender stereotypes. Apparently Mamdani is allergic to cats, but has been getting allergy shots because his wife wants to adopt one.

DraftKings developed an AI model to identify users most likely to lose money so that it could target them with promotions. When employees then developed a model that would have assigned “risk scores” based on users' likelihood to develop compulsive/addictive behaviors, the company sidelined it. https://t.co/MOqK3RSMXz
ICE abducted a WBB player while she was traveling with her Kentucky State team in early August at Louisville airport.
She has been imprisoned for 1.5 months and denied care for a serious ACL injury.
It is the responsibility of universities and the NCAA to protect their players.
watching random episodes of "The Sopranos" now streaming on HBO & could not bear to see a second time the episode in which Adrianna is "whacked."
during the original season, stopped watching the series at that point & did not even see the controversial final episode until years later.
(did anyone else stop watching at that point? just curious. that Tony & the "colorful mob characters" could murder Adrianna who was one of their own was a line that, once crossed, turned the serio-comic tone of "The Sopranos" irrevocably sour, ugly.)
(& indeed the final season was dim-lighted, a downward spiral. one by one the "colorful characters" died, except for Paulie Walnuts. quite a dark journey for Americans to be watching collectively.)
Things are not well for Utah tonight. The Royals are down to 9 players after 25 minutes: Cronin red (9' DOGSO), Tejada red (25', hair pull). Both after VAR. Second one leads to PK, which Ally Sentnor buries v. her former team. 1-0 Angel City. Long 11v9 ahead for the Royals. #NWSL
A new species of cat has been identified for the first time in a century—and experts think that there may be even more to discover around the world: https://t.co/woOXXxJOXB
Anger at the Sydney Sweeney ad comes because women’s sport feels so precarious - a weakness continually profited from because resistance means spotlighting the thing you’re trying to hide. This is an enduring issue, more significant than the ad itself

I had some thoughts about Sydney Sweeney and her recent commercial.
This entire debacle has made me see and hear the powerful voices of women in sport. But make me question why we take Sweeney seriously at all. My latest for @cbcsports

being a woman on sports twt means you'll see people participating in harassment campaigns to drive young women to kill themselves by distributing nonconsensual sexual imagery of them and then you see that you have several mutuals in common with them
“Get off the for you page” is going to be my position for social media this year. The internet is dying / dead and the few humans left are spending its last days arguing about things post by bots / nobodies / engagement farmers to intentionally piss you off.
Going to start a movies podcast where we only talk about movies that were adapted from novels / plays. And each week we read the book / series, watch the movie, and then interrogate both.
