It really be your own people sometimes… 🤦🏾♂️
Google gave you my birthplace, not my biography.
Yes, I was born in Calgary, because my mom went into labor earlier than expected while visiting my father, who was playing in the CFL at the time. I was supposed to be born in Seattle, where we lived at the time.
I’m the only person in my family born outside the U.S. My parents are from San Francisco, and our family roots are spread throughout the South.
By the way, I am a descendant of enslaved Americans with lineage that traces to Copiah County, Mississippi, among other places.
So while you found my birthplace, you clearly missed my story!
#HappyJuneteenth ✊🏾
idc for project B but its been fascinating to see people act like Unrivaled is a charity and gift to women’s sports these past few years and not just another capitalistic pursuit where the owners want to make as much money as possible. no different than the WNBA
People still don’t understand how insane this is from bruno’s perspective, this was his first ever world cup goal and ronaldo was trying so hard to take it from him..
You expect bruno to be loyal and fight for someone like this?? Lol
So let me get this straight.
A woman in her young twenties, new to Los Angeles, agrees to meet a guy after talking online under the impression he’s roughly her age. Instead, a significantly older man, looking around 35 shows up having already misrepresented himself.
She immediately notices abnormal behavior, he walks into the bar scanning the room instead of engaging with her, hyper aware of his surroundings, acting visibly strange enough that alarm bells start going off.
Then, within minutes, he pivots into telling her he manages influencers and OnlyFans girls, which in practical terms often means acting as a pimp and then he starts aggressively pressuring a young woman he barely knows to start doing sex work, move to Miami with his help, and let him grow her brand.
So from her perspective
Lied about who he was.
Showed up significantly older than expected.
Displayed bizarre hyper vigilant behavior.
Immediately introduced sexualized financial exploitation.
Began attempting to recruit an isolated young woman new to a major city.
And your conclusion is,
“HAHA WOMEN SAY THEY’RE STRONG BUT THEY CRY.”
No, dipshit.
What you just watched was a woman recognizing, in hindsight, that she had likely just encountered a predator.
Women don’t spend their lives learning situational awareness because the world is full of good hearted entrepreneurial alpha males.
They do it because men like this exist.
And after escaping a high adrenaline situation, the nervous system processes the threat afterward. It’s called a delayed stress response. Fairly basic neurobiology, though admittedly concepts above a 7th grade reading level tend to struggle in manosphere circles.
What’s genuinely fascinating is how men who spend every waking hour screaming about protecting women are almost always the first ones mocking women for correctly identifying dangerous men.
Which tells us the quiet part out loud.
You don’t actually hate women being emotional.
You hate women recognizing predatory male behavior before men like that can benefit from it.
But sure, Richard. Tell us more about female irrationality while publicly demonstrating why women have to develop situational awareness in the first place.
Outstanding work.
Oh you used a low grade commercial pool sealant paint, on coarse shallow granite, flooded with algae water, and pounded it with the incorrect chemicals to try and deal with the algae?
Yeah no shit the pool is going to disintegrate.
Trump's symbolic trash swamp.
Yet it is always women who are expected to be inconvenienced.
Out of the +1k testimonies shared under my tweets, not a single man has come forward saying he missed school, postponed getting his driver’s licence, put his studies on hold, sacrificed his sleep, or gave up opportunities in order to care for children. Not one.
So enough with the language that seeks to guilt women into accepting unequal burdens. The reality is that women are overwhelmingly the ones expected to adjust, sacrifice and make themselves smaller for the sake of others.
This is where the COVID relief money went by the way.
When Biden declared the pandemic over, he allowed states to use BILLIONS of dollars of public health funds meant for the protection of children and the elderly to then be used by the prisons and jails and to build more
A brand new bridge between Detroit and Canada is finished and ready to open. It would speed up traffic for millions of trucks, cut delays for American businesses, and help the auto industry that employs people in every state. There is just one problem.
Donald Trump won’t let it open.
Here is why.
The family that owns the old bridge stands to lose business when the new one opens. So in January, they gave one million dollars to a pro-Trump super PAC.
Weeks later they met with Trump’s Commerce Secretary.
He called Trump.
Hours after that, Trump announced he would block the new bridge. The opening was set for June 12. It got canceled the day before. The bridge sits there finished and empty.
Now here is the part that should make every taxpayer angry.
Canada paid for the entire bridge.
Every dollar. And the United States already owns half of it for free. Trump is holding up a bridge we got for nothing, to protect a donor who wrote him a check, while picking a fight with our closest ally and biggest trading partner.
This is corruption in plain sight.
A billionaire pays, and the President delivers. American workers and businesses pay the price.
Open the bridge. A government should work for the people, not for whoever writes the biggest check.

La fédération iranienne 🇮🇷 a déposé une plainte auprès de la FIFA à cause de ses conditions de voyage
Elle demandait à pouvoir se rendre sur place deux jours avant la rencontre contre la Belgique 🇧🇪 (ce qui est inscrit dans le règlement) et repartir le lendemain pour optimiser les entraînements et la récupération
Or, les autorités américaines ont encore refusé et obligent les Iraniens à venir la veille de la rencontre et quitter le territoire directement après les 90 minutes, ce qui va à l'econtre du traitement d'équité pour toutes les sélections présentes à la Coupe du Monde
So u can’t have a CC of women’s hockey bc CC exists in juxtaposition with a primarily Black womens league and that aspect is very important to the function CC has in sports culture.
