🚨NEW: @cbsnews.com reports ICE is arresting people who can't even legally be deported and holding them without enough food or water in a federal building BASEMENT in Los Angeles. Families dutifully attending check-ins with ICE are being arrested and held for days, forced to sleep on the floor.

The NYT's continued war on trans kids and families is particularly heinous right now because they're targeting a group who can not speak up without endangering themselves. It's watching a minority group hide and flee for their lives while running a 6-part series about how the other side has a point.

Gov. Tim Walz is doubling down on trans rights — and criticizing members of his party who are retreating — at a time when the issue has become a political lightning rod nationally and back home in Minnesota.

Good for Tim Walz. Especially powerful because he's probably the only governor in the country who has spent a substantial part of his career actually coaching high school sports. He knows how disgusting it is to separate and punish kids because of an adult moral panic

Intentionality. That was my word of the week at the #NASSH2025. As academia fights current political statements in the US, it is my job to push back. It is our job as academics to be intentional with our mentorship, leadership, and teaching practices.

This is super cool read about Dr. Jan Todd, a record-breaking powerlifter who earned a Ph.D. in American Studies on the history of strength and exercise, launched the first academic journal in this scholarly area, and opened a museum, library, and archive of fitness and weightlifting history. 🗃️

If you follow me I am going to ask that rather than engaging full time in the discourse you share some Gazan stories, talk to a person from Gaza, repost a Gaza fundraiser (here’s a list in this thread also in my pinned post, also just find one yourself). I care way more about that
