Someone asked Becky Hammon if she sees similarities between the Fever's top No. 1 picks and what the Aces had with Kelsey Plum, Jackie Young and A'ja Wilson. Her response: "No" 😂 Then A'ja said she loved KM but she was No. 1 and KM was No. 2 🤣

A’ja Wilson. The Face of The WNBA. 36 pts 10 rebounds. 2 blk. MVP award loading… Mitchell had a moment in the 4th but didn’t shoot well tonight. And please stop calling CC generational. She was 6/18 fg & 3/12 on 3s and 35% career from deep. I’m honored to witness The Aja Wilson era.Dominance

And as I am a broken record on all of this, I will say it again: none of this lives in isolation. I wrote a whole book 10(!!!!!!) years ago on college football and sexual assault because there are so many upsetting and repeating patterns. I’d love for the book to be irrelevant! Please!!!

And I refuse to stop talking about this part. This should have been a 🚨🚨🚨🚩🚩🚩 about how seriously (or, rather, not) LSU was taking the problem of gendered violence, especially in sports and particularly with football! bsky.app/profile/jess...

The larger context here is that back in 2020, we reported at USA Today on major failures at LSU, including in athletics and especially with football, with how they handled reports of gendered violence. The school responded, said it would do better, made changes. www.usatoday.com/story/news/i...

LSU says probe into handling of sexual misconduct complaints to be done by February
Following a USA TODAY report, LSU says its outside investigation into the mishandling of sexual misconduct complaints will be finished by February.

The Cornell story is horrific, but I’d like to shine a light on what happened at LSU with a current football player on the team:
In July, the school found Shanklin responsible for "forcible rape" and issued a one-year suspension, which is a full ban from campus and activities, according to documents reviewed by ESPN. After Shanklin appealed, an administrative law judge who handles appeals per LSU policy upheld the finding that the athlete was responsible for "forcible rape," but reduced the punishment to four semesters of probation with no restrictions, which allows Shanklin to remain enrolled and on campus and to participate in activities as long as he stays out of trouble.

there are moral arguments against the death penalty in its ideal form but in real life you never need to get there. the prior question is "can the state be trusted to end the life only of the rightly convicted without torture?" and the answer is no

Wendy Carlos should be on the 20 dollar bill. There should be a 50-foot-tall, solid-gold statue of her in Pawtucket. You should be able to buy all her albums in any format you want and a line of custom branded synths. She should be a household name along with Bob Moog.

The image is of a four panel comic.
The first panel shows Sarah, the protagonist, holding a red ball labeled "A SILLY MEME".
The second panel shows Sarah taking the ball and going through a door labeled "GROUP CHAT".
The third panel shows a group of women sitting together and consoling one woman in the center. The woman in the center is saying "...And that's how it happened. It's been the worst day of my life."
The fourth panel shows Sarah standing in the doorway behind them awkwardly holding the red ball.

It's easy - and correct! - to focus on just how ghoulish and profane this view of human creativity is. But even if you're the most cynical capitalist on earth, the evidence that people would enjoy entirely dehumanised content, at anything like a scale that would justify this hype, is extremely thin!

We've had the ability to watch, say, Counterstrike marathons, Street Fighter tournaments, or chess matches between computers since the 90s. Spectacles which, by their very definition, would be at a "higher standard" than human play. And nobody wants it. It's entirely meaningless. It has no appeal.

Every time a discourse kicks off over whether AI music, literature or art will be "as good as" the real thing, I'm always amazed more people don't cite that **there already are** creative pursuits where human-free spectacles have been available for decades, and nobody has ever wanted to watch them.

He’s right of course. Player pay and coaching pay ARE totally different markets. That’s why in every pro sports league on earth, the best players are paid significantly more than the best coaches. They’re way more valuable. College sports is unique in flipping that

One of the things to come from GamerGate was the gamification of torturing real, live women...hounding them out of their homes, making them look over their shoulders for years. It was treated as a joke, nbd, the work of a few bad apples--as all terrorism against women is--& that failure leads here.
