It’s dangerously cold outside, and it’s only going to get worse tonight. We need to raise more funds to get people indoors and out of the freezing weather. Thank you to everyone who has supported so far—every donation and share makes a difference.

A performer in Kendrick Lamar’s Super Bowl halftime show was detained by security after waving the Sudanese flag & Palestinian flag together with the words “Sudan” & “Gaza” written on them. Waiting for the so-called Free Speech mavens to flock to his defense. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

Trump’s latest anti-trans executive order is an attempt to evict trans people from civic life. The steady flow of anti-trans bigotry in sport was the gateway to full-throttle demonization under Trump.

This crew is hellbent on gaslighting us into oblivion by erasing history, destroying records, redacting pronouns, pounding on binaries, and sowing chaos. It’s going to take an enormous act of resistance to avoid internalizing that logic. It’s both a personal and collective challenge.

Read @awalkerinla.bsky.social on LA's own broligarchy & how it's hitching the LA28 Olympics to wildfire recovery. [Plus, LA28 chair Casey Wasserman (finally!) identifies a legacy for the 2028 Olympics, if a super-vague one ("Our legacy is going to be changing the course of LA for a long time")]

"The Olympics Aren’t the Way to Rebuild Los Angeles." My latest w/ @edgeofsports.bsky.social. The right's reactionary opposition to the LA Games & the liberals' celebration capitalism are both misguided. There are better ways to help LA recover. @thenation.com www.thenation.com/article/soci...

My latest for the @theguardian.com: "Donald Trump’s Return to Power Lays Bare the Lie that Sports Don’t Matter." Sports are politics by other means, and in the coming years, sports will be vital political terrain. www.theguardian.com/sport/2025/j...

Tonight, temperatures in Portland will drop to 29°. Tragically, our shelters don’t open unless it’s 25° or colder, leaving many of our neighbors out in the cold. This is inhumane. Every share and every dollar counts.

Can LA Still Host the Olympics? "The International Olympic Committee doesn't care if LA holds its Games or not. And, perhaps more troublingly, the city of LA will happily brush aside its own emergencies in order to stage a megaevent," writes @awalkerinla.bsky.social www.torched.la/can-la-still...

Not only is it safe, but we know it has a mitigating effect on childhood poverty via prevention of childhood caries. Tooth decay also leads to pain, missed school, increased healthcare costs, and we are seeing ever stronger evidence that it impacts cardiovascular health as well.
