Welp, here it is. World Athletics is going back to mandatory sex testing for all women. This is something that was done for years, but abandoned in the 1990's because it was invasive, discriminatory, and also useless. news.sky.com/story/bluesk...

World Athletics to introduce mandatory sex testing for female competitions
Sebastian Coe, president of World Athletics, says the governing body feels the mandatory tests for athletes are "a really important way of providing confidence".

I think it’s important to realize the Atlantic editor is ex idf and has a history of promoting the US imperial line not because it’s a “conspiracy” but because it’s good for people to know Pete H doesn’t have his number on signal by accident, but only added him to that particular chat by accident.

I started pitching Hit Singles in 2016. I thought it'd be the next thing after Wolf 359. It took 6 years for someone to buy it and another 2 years to make it. Takeaways? 1. don't give up! If you believe in a story, keep pushing for it to get made 2. I'm DYING for you all to listen to this series!

Unsolicited advice: pick one or two issues and whole-ass your support or advocacy and activism. Obviously remain open to show up for other folks’ organizing if it falls outside of your focus, but it’s gonna get tempting to stand for everything, which is a recipe for burnout and disappointment.

A screenshot of the Die Zeit website. It is a photo of Musk in black and white doing the Hitler “seig heil” salute - but the actual salute is blocked out by blue material on the left hand side of the photo. The headline is underneath.
