Yesterday my final piece as an AV Club staff writer went up. I’ve been musing over post-pandemic tv since the beginning of the year and personally found it under discussed at the COVID 5-year mark. Really proud of how it turned out❤️ www.avclub.com/2025-tv-covi...

I love @fbref.com's annual year in review maps. Second year in a row that the Spirit is the most viewed soccer team page in DC!

The salary range for it ($100k-125k) is higher than what a minimum contract player for the Sparks makes. If that doesn't summarize the current CBA situation, I dunno what does.

It’s important to think of this systemically. Women are less likely to land managers and agents to begin with, and then less able to be able to transform successes or even jobs into higher visibility and more attention in the town. The reason they do so well in contests is many are read blind.
The number of women screenwriters on this years Blacklist is... abysmal?
Why aren't more women percolating up to fav unproduced screenplays in LA when women fill the contests, workshops, labs, and other unpaid opportunities.
Are women getting read in the right places to cut through?

ok this is an insane story but let’s do a poll: if you could declare your workplace’s official font, what would it be? (Might be different than *favorite* font!)
Mr. Rubio said switching back to Times New Roman would “restore decorum and professionalism to the department’s written work.” Calibri is “informal” when compared to serif typefaces like Times New Roman and “clashes” with the department’s official letterhead. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/09/u...

Trinity Rodman has the blend of talent and charisma that makes a genuine star. It sounds obvious, but having her stateside benefits the entire U.S. soccer landscape way more than it does one single team.

I've said this multiple times, but it's just so obvious that it behooves the NWSL, each NWSL club, the decision-makers in the league office, to keep Rodman (who by all accounts is leaving money on the table!) in the NWSL.
The existing arguments to the contrary simply do not hold water.

One way or the other, the league will set a precedent with Rodman. The NWSL has the power to choose what that looks like.

Transition is a matter of free will and freedom. Trans people are going to do it anyway and you cannot stop them.

one of the main reasons trans healthcare moved away from strict gatekeeping and toward informed consent & GAC is that trans ppl who were denied the means to transition would simply seek it out elsewhere
What did you think would happen when you restricted access to care?
