The Constitution barely survived today.

By a 5-4 vote, Trump’s Supreme Court declined to let him rewrite the Constitution and end birthright citizenship.

We’re hanging on by a thread. The fight to defend our democracy is far from over.

[Coach Thomas-Anderson @_CoachAnderson_]

Reminder: DI, DII, DIII, JUCO, and NAIA are levels of competition, not levels of worth. The best thing we can do is stop judging athletes by where they play and start appreciating them for who they are. Character, work ethic, resilience, and the way they treat others will always matter more than the level they compete at.

Sports are just one chapter of their story, not their entire identity!

[The Hype Mom @softballhype]

The idea that athletes will just get found if they’re “good enough” is archaic.

Recruiting doesn’t work that way anymore.

Coaches can’t recruit athletes they don’t know exist.

Visibility matters.

Emails matter.

Camps matter.

Relationships matter.

They don’t know you until they KNOW you.

[J🇺🇸 @the_fem_tm]

Sorry to rehash the duty sex discourse but a lot of men seem to be completely clueless of the fact that sex feels very different to women based solely on whether or not they’re physically turned on. I think this is because men are incapable of penetrative sex if they’re not physically aroused.

But women can absolutely experience penetrative sex with the female version of a flaccid penis (not aroused). Do you all really think a gyno appointment or putting in a tampon is a little bit pleasurable for us ? It’s not.

What makes sex feel good for women is being horny. That’s why duty sex sucks. You might as well be giving her a Pap smear.

News flash for the weirdos complaining about Juneteenth being a “made up” holiday — quite literally every single fucking holiday is a human invention. Just say you’re fucking racist.

On my way to St. L ouis for another weekend of softball! Here's my schedule and some reps from this week.

[Coach Jennifer Turner @CAASoftballAdv]

ACTION ITEM FOR EVERY RECRUIT 🚨

Take 10 minutes today and look at your target school list.

Ask yourself:

❓ How many Division I schools are on it?
❓ How many Division II schools are on it?
❓ How many Division III schools are on it?
❓ How many NAIA schools are on it?
❓ How many JUCO schools are on it?

If your list is heavily weighted toward only one division, it’s time to expand it.

This week:

✅ Add 5 new schools from a different division
✅ Research their programs
✅ Follow their coaching staff on social media
✅ Send an introductory email
✅ Add them to your outreach plan

Recruiting is constantly changing.

Coaches leave.
Players transfer.
Roster needs change.

The athletes who create the most opportunities are the athletes building relationships before they need them.

Don’t limit your options.

Build connections across all divisions and let the recruiting process work for you.

🥎 Your next opportunity may come from a school you haven’t considered yet.

Tell me how it makes sense that a woman can go to jail for getting an abortion but a cop gets paid leave when he murders a baby...

[Power to the People ☭🕊 @ProudSocialist]

The cops murdered a 1-year-old baby in Mississippi after someone falsely accused his mother of shoplifting from Walmart.

Even if the diapers were stolen that is no justification for cops to murder anyone let alone a child, but she had a receipt.

A baby is dead because of a shoot-first, murderous cop AND a racist person who profiled a Black mother and called the police over diapers that she didn’t even steal.
