Had fun writing this flash piece about baseball and a lot of messier parts of life — many thanks to @trampset for giving it a home!!

If Measure A fails and LA defunds homeless services, outreach workers get laid off. Shelters close. When people end up on the street, it will take longer to make contact. When someone finally does, it will take longer to get them inside. All that adds up to more homelessness.

What Ta-Nehisi Coates is doing, using his standing in the liberal mainstream to enter rarefied mainstream spaces to speak out on behalf of Palestinians, even though those spaces will be invariably hostile and even perhaps subsequently foreclosed to him, is incredible

Wow, it turns out I played a role in pushing Ta-Nehisi Coates to look more deeply into Palestine. I was the woman who yelled on the mic about Palestine and got shouted down at his event with Jeffrey Goldberg, it was at the Sixth & I synagogue in DC I think in 2014. That was…

all of this fear-mongering around women athletes and their bodies has real trickle-down impacts I wrote last month about how plenty of women athletes have decided to quit—or were told to quit—before they could even potentially get to the Olympics slate.com/life/2024/07/o…

Mediterranean Deli, Bakery, and Catering has provided food for the encampment. Demonstrators are eating lunch now. Jamil Kadoura, the owner of Med Deli, began his food service career helping a struggling falafel pita stand in Qalqilya, Palestine, as a child.
