this is a letter to the editor from a high school track runner who came in second to a trans girl in a race. her state house rep in maine started talking about it. so she wrote this: www.pressherald.com/2025/05/14/r...

Rep. Laurel Libby, R-Auburn, recently used my second-place finish in the 1,600-meter run, and that of my teammate in the 800-meter run, to malign Soren Stark-Chessa, the trans-identified athlete who finished first.

One of the reasons I chose to run cross-country and track is the community: Teammates cheering each other on, athletes from different schools coming together, and the fact that personal improvement is valued as much as, if not more than, the place we finish.

Last Friday, I ran the fastest 1,600-meter race I have ever run in middle school or high school track and earned varsity status by my school’s standards. I am extremely proud of the effort I put into the race and the time that I achieved. The fact that someone else finished in front of me didn’t diminish the happiness I felt after finishing that race. I don’t feel like first place was taken from me. Instead, I feel like a happy day was turned ugly by a bully who is using children to make political points.

We are all just kids trying to make our way through high school. Participating in sports is the highlight of high school for some kids. No one was harmed by Soren’s participation in the girls’ track meet, but we are all harmed by the hateful rhetoric of bullies, like Rep. Libby, who want to take sports away from some kids just because of who they are.

This may be the most perfect summary ever written about a car. From this week's @channel6.bsky.social newsletter, which you should already be subscribed to because it's free and excellent, and which also contains: °Reckless levels of charitable generosity °SPIES! °homemade nilla wafers And more!

DRIVE (AND DIE IN): THE RENAULT 5 TURBO 3E.

SPENCER: I do not believe we live in a truly free country for many reasons. The silliest but most emotionally important of them to me: I cannot buy this right now and immediately drive it at 500 mph into a telephone pole.

Sometimes an automaker summons a demon. Sometimes they summon a demon with your actual name on it, one who who emerges from the fires of hell and says “Hey, cool, I’m gonna need some coffee and also the address and phone number of Spencer Hall, because I’m headed straight to his house.”

This demon on my doorstep has cannily assumed the form of a yellow hot hatch with retro styling, rally handling, some truly stupid-fantastic trim, the words TURBO on the side, and a 536 horsepower engine capable of going 0-60 in 3.5 seconds. I need it like I need cocaine, both in the sense that I do not need this car, and also that it would both kill me and provide some of the most thrilling moments of my life.

If you read to the end you will see that it costs $27,000 dollars base. I need everyone to overthrow the government explicitly for the purpose of making this car a) available to me personally, and b.) as cheap as possible. In summary: I should never be allowed to drive this automobile, and God themselves and no one on earth can stop me from driving this automobile.

P.S. France made this and we didn’t. We have lost our way as a nation but you likely already knew this.

No democrat should vote for anything in Congress until Musk is fired and all the federal funding he zeroed out on a whim is restored. We simply cannot have a democracy when the Executive's zonked-out Vizier moves fast and breaks things he doesn't understand, which is all things, because he's stupid.

whenever you think you can’t accomplish something remember that Tommy Tuberville is a United States Senator

Article from The Hill that reads

Republicans, meanwhile, had little to say on the proposed cuts, while some were supportive.
Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-Ala.) said he wholeheartedly backs cuts at the Pentagon, including a staff downsizing.
“I wouldn’t be against them taking it from a Pentagon to a Trigon. Cut a couple sides off of it,” he told reporters.
