Angel Reese makes her WNBA Finals tomorrow. Her family is one of seven that has a son in the NBA and daughter in the W simultaneously (GSV has two of them). I tried to find out what each basketball family harped on to produce a pro in each league: washingtonsun.com/sports/nba…

NEW: ICE is trying to deport a mother of 4 while her husband is at Fort Benning in Army basic training. When she went to pick up the family's military IDs, Navy personnel turned her over to ICE. She's been in the US since age six. Story with @nancyayoussef theatlantic.com/politics/202…

went (quite) long on the 2026 Black Pop Girl Renaissance, the prickly conversation around the “pop star” label and why we can’t afford to wait on the charts to uplift these talented ladies.

Launching a book whilst closing a @NYTmag piece is about as daunting as it gets, but the strange, terrible story of the #Prairieland defendants took a while… this is the chilling, long term impact of the 25-yr #waronterror. Gift link below:

I visited @cornellsun students at their office last night — and talked with them about the campus rape case they've been investigating for 23 months, and the decision to publish the names of the seven men involved in the lawsuit on their front page. nytimes.com/2026/09/29/nyreg…

among all the heartbreaking things in the Cornell case, one that strikes me is how she thought these boys were her friends. wrote about this a few years ago: katefeetie.medium.com/renate…

Why Blaming Sydney Sweeney Misses the Point
The backlash obscures the media and porn industries that profit from sexualizing women, manufacturing insecurity and narrowing the choices available to women in the public eye.

Plenty of people have fun and consensual group sex. They don’t typically go to the police afterward. And if what Jane Doe and these men wanted was fun and consensual group sex, they could have arranged that for the next day when they were all sober. But let’s just be honest: Most sober and empowered 20-year-old women don’t want to have sex with more than a half-dozen men in a single night, and I suspect that the men in question knew that Jane Doe was not an enthusiastic participant but someone who had to be pressured and plied.

For more than two months, I have been working on a truly horrific story about one of the gravest war crimes committed by the United States since Vietnam: The bombing of the Shajareh Tayyebeh school in Minab, Iran. It was one of the first targets struck in the opening hours of the war on February 28, 2026.
At least 156 people were killed in the U.S. cruise missile strikes—120 of them were children and 26 were teachers. We spoke to survivors, first responders, parents, doctors, teachers, psychologists, and other witnesses. Some of them had never before shared their experiences of that day.
It would be impossible to do justice to what happened in Minab that day with words alone. In more than 25 years in journalism and reporting on war, I do not believe I have reported on a more heinous single crime.

If you’re interested in gender violence at universities, my favorite book on it is A Survivor’s Education by Joy Neumeyer, which looks at the Title IX process both as a system of political repression and as a way of revoking women’s epistemic authority. hachettebookgroup.com/titles…

After Nikole Hannah-Jones' viral essay, lots of people dunked on her for not realizing her daughter was behind.
@KelseyTuoc argues against the critics: It can be really hard to know when your kid is doing poorly in school.
