President Jimmy Carter’s memorial service was today at the National Cathedral near where I live in DC. This seems like an apt quote when I think about his amazing legacy. We should all live our lives like this.

You are brave and bold at a time when the word #hero has lost its meaning. Thank you @anntelnaes.bsky.social for sticking it to the man and not caving to the powers that be. Keep slaying with that pen!

Just watched #TheBrutalist an uneven but captivating masterpiece. Every shot, piece of wardrobe, location and words uttered from Adrian Brody and Guy Pearce’s lips were delectable. It’s long, and gets a bit tedious but so worth the journey. Orson Wellsean? Maybe. Share your thoughts if you’ve seen.

The #USWNT always makes me proud 🇺🇸 and it was super fun to watch them get back to their winning ways in 2024. Looking forward to more glory next season!

Girls Soccer Network @girlssoccernetwork.bsky.social · Dec 26

Let's relive some of the magic that our national team brought us in 2024! 🇺🇸 Definitely a bright spot in #womenssoccer #USWNT

The USWNT in 2024: Year in Review

2024 was a near-perfect year for the USWNT. The United States hired a new manager, won a Gold Medal, and did so much more. Plus, we saw a change of guard

I have a strange connection to this show that doesn’t make sense to me. Yes it’s a great show with great writing and acting but it’s more than that. I’ll miss the sisters as I did after season one ended. The show stays with me. It’s a vibe. The music. The wardrobe. You got me Garvey’s 💚 #badsisters

Sharon Horgan Unpacks That Devastating ‘Bad Sisters’ Finale

Horgan and co-star Anne-Marie Duff tell Obsessed why the show had to take the shocking twists and turns that it did this season—especially in that Season 2 finale episode.

Not sure what you were watching. This season was even better than the first to me and my couch-mate. Dark comedy at its best. Women pushed to the death against the stupid patriarchal world that always seems to get the better of them. This was beautiful storytelling. Gonna miss the Garvey’s.

#NightBitch made me remember how good the comedy-horror genre can be. Amy Adams gave a great performance. Intriguing. Some realisms about motherhood delivered in bite size 🐺 pieces (see what I did there?). Woof.

Been a personal fave since her Red Stars days. Casey is a class act.

Girls Soccer Network @girlssoccernetwork.bsky.social · Dec 13

What a remarkable career Casey has had. She’s just quietly stayed in the game and grown into such an impact player for both the #USWNT and the Spirit. Happy she’s finally getting the recognition she deserves. #NWSL #womenssoccer

The USWNT has been blessed recently by the number of youth players available. The national team already has a roster that hopefully will last for a long
