No surprise. I was recently arrested at Delaney Hall in illegal kettle & cop deliberately squeezed cuffs so tight my circulation was cut off for 4 hrs. Excruciating. Hands felt like they’d explode. If left overnight or > 8 hrs, it’s gangrene territory & must be amputated.
I’ve been wondering about this every day since as my right hand is still numb 2.5 months later & possibly permanent. Well no need to wonder, this is exactly what happens: you must cut off your hands.
Ofc learning math matters & not just bc mathematically-illiterate Caitlin fans think a player who shoots 36% from 3 should take more 3s than a teammate who shoots 45% from 3. It’s bc the process of math trains our brains to solve problems that’s transferable to life beyond math.
The exact opposite of everything Obama says here is true. Then and now. He couldn’t be more out of touch with this moment we’re in.

Grateful to be featured on the cover of The Guardian Saturday. I enjoyed sitting down with them to talk about my memoir, THE PERILOUS FIGHT, now a #1 New York Times Best Seller.
🔁 The Guardian Saturday Ten years ago, the San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick refused to stand for the national anthem. He was accused of disrespecting the flag, the game, and America. In tomorrow's @gdnsaturday, Kaepernick talks about being 'blackballed' for taking the knee, the civil rights movement, and why he still trains in case he gets to play again.

Macklemore just announced his "Free Palestine" tour with a bunch of other politically aligned artists, and all proceeds go to orgs helping Palestine.
THIS IS HOW YOU DO IT!!!

What happened to me is bigger than one artist or one stage. When the billionaire class can decide which voices are allowed on stage and which ones are too dangerous to hear, everyone should be paying attention.
So we're going on tour. All proceeds will benefit organizations supporting the Palestinian people and movement.

Veronica Burton is most underrated WNBA player by far. She’s actually a top-5 player, but few know this in social media’s “Dumb-Stats-Era” because REAL hooping that wins actual games like lockdown defense, and absurd 6-to-1 Assist-to-TO ratio in last 19 gms isn’t appreciated. I so wished Valkyries lost that game last night so they played Indiana & all the casuals would learn real quick.

🚨 BREAKING: In a major loss for voters, the Supreme Court ruled 6-3 to allow the Trump administration to initiate voter roll purges using a flawed database involving Americans' private data.
The ruling will disproportionately impact naturalized citizens who've been wrongly flagged in the system.

The Mississippi State Medical Examiner's autopsy report found no water in his lungs or airways, despite the grand jury report suggesting Nolan Wells' death was an accidental drowning. The cause and manner of death remain undetermined, with documented evidence of head injuries noted in the report.

Happening Now: New Yorkers are taking to the streets to demand an end to the genocide in Gaza and to protest Netanyahu’s visit to the United Nations. As Netanyahu takes the UN stage New Yorkers are stand fully in solidarity with the people of Palestine.
#StopCopCity retweeted
So this performative nonsense is meant to distract from the fact that hundreds of NYPD vehicles escorted Netanyahu to the UN today, giving him a grander welcome than most, if not all, heads of state. Meanwhile the NYPD was arresting anti-genocide protesters in the streets.
A far cry from campaigning on arresting Netanyahu. Now he won’t arrest him, won’t protest him, and says he doesn’t even encourage New Yorkers to protest.
But peace & olive trees 🫒✌️
Fever lost big tonight but truth is Aces is more favorable matchup than ATL or Golden State, the 2 teams with best perimeter defenses. Also, Aliyah pushes A’ja out to take longer shots. Not saying Aces will lose, but if I’m Fever fan, it’s your best shot to steal a 3 gm series.
I can’t believe what Gabby Williams has just done in the last minute. About to spoil a Golden State vs Indiana Fever defense vs offense matchup
Stephanie White must be reason why Caitlin is shooting 1-12 tonite. White will likely get fired to appease Caitlin’s mob who also disrespected Kara Lawson & ran Christie Sides out of town. Coaching a Caitlin team w/better players on it is the very worst coach job in all of sports

Federal agents caught on camera brutalizing a U.S. citizen in Evanston, Illinois.
ICE officers stopped a man while he was out walking, forcefully restraining him on the street. The moment agents realized he was a U.S. citizen, they quickly abandoned the scene shouting at onlookers to "back the f*** up" as they dispersed.
