A fantastic bit of hold up play by Ludmila, followed by a great run and cross to another great run by Bea Franklin. Such a fun run of play!
Ludmila finds Bea Franklin and she uses her head to score her first of the season!

In my dissertation (working on revising this chapter into a journal article atm) I address some of the issues John discusses in this thread. Here’s a teaser on what policies US adults said would most improve their personal safety from a wider selection of policies typically on public safety polls.

damn bro that sounds like a multitude of factors
New from NC Courage on Sean Nahas: “The termination stemmed from a combination of compounding performance issues, culture issues, and a perceived lack of fit that created an environment that club leadership felt was untenable to the point that change was necessary at the head coaching position.”

Literal yikes. Hard to get the book more wrong.
Testing ChatGPT's new "study and learn" option so I asked for some help understanding @biblioracle.bsky.social's work to see how my students might fare and it confidently just told me things that are... quite wrong.

The CDC has now released provisional data on the nation's homicide rate through all of 2024. The data's subject to change, but homicide was down ~12.5% in the CDC data in 2024, largely returning to 2019's level.

It’s worse than “Gaza is being starved and destroyed and no one cares.” It’s that hundreds of millions *do* care and are powerless to stop it. We need a world where that can never happen, where the masses actually have political power.

It’s my first time hosting anything on TV. Ever.
I’ve spent years writing behind the scenes, learning from truly great and talented people. Now, for three nights, I get to sit at the desk and do it myself.

Out of curiosity I wanted to know how the massive LMS Instructure (company that runs Canvas) is using the massive amounts of data it collects on students.
