Hi friends! I am back with another survey ask. This is a project I am working on as a part of my PhD program! When someone comments on a woman's body in a fan space, who else is reading? UC researchers want to hear from women fans, 18+, of women's sports. About 10 to 15 min: tinyurl.com/UCWomenFans

We don’t spend enough time talking about just how WEIRD all these people are. This is just an incredibly weird and insecure thing to say. Imagine any other SecDef ever being this weird and insecure?!

A great deal happened today. But nothing more important than this. SCOTUS allows Trump Administration to continue sending detained migrants to third countries with which the migrants have no prior connection. Just appalling.

Wow. On the WNBA halftime show, they showed A'ja talking about what happened. Then, they were either non-committal or told A'ja to be better than that. Maybe spent 30 seconds on it. If you want to be treated like a real league, you have to talk about these hard things like Fever fans are a problem.

In 2014, I interviewed a Columbia University student who went from class to class carrying the mattress she was raped on—a protest performance piece to remind college administrators what they put on her shoulders. Twelve years later, we still expect women on college campuses to carry that weight.

So excited for this in about an hour. I loved @mkn.bsky.social 's book The Westerners. This is probably the last weekend day in the 70s for us in the midwest for like 9 months, so I will be watching outside from my patio.

World War 2 days at Midway Village. @ryangw27.bsky.social gave a great presentation, as usual. This year he talked about baseball in a Japanese internment camp in California. It's always great to see the awesome Clara Swenson Hellman, Peaches Batgirl.

Ryan is standing at a podium. To his right and behind is a screen pulled down with a slide from his presentation.

Clara! Ryan made her some cards with her picture on it, as well as the year she was a Peaches batgirl. Clara is always very popular when we do tabling and sell Peaches stuff at events. She signed this card for me today.

ICE has abducted Senegalese WBB player Aminata Seck and won't release her. DHS 'policy' is to provide medical care to prisoners at intake, yet they admit to denying her care for an ACL injury for 1.5 months. The NCAA is letting it happen, despite its predatory recruitment of ICAs. We explain.

theguardian.com

ICE has abducted a college athlete. What are the NCAA and universities going to do about it?

Aminata Seck’s detention shows the bargain facing international college athletes: universities eagerly recruit them, but support can disappear when their immigration status becomes precarious.
