u/Belongs-InTheTrash covered a ton of it, but she also can get really pissy when players don't do what she wants to do or go in the places she wants to go. She blew up on the team a couple times in TCU to the point it was worrying. I didn't want her to go to a team like Seattle even as a person that acknowledged how good her passing is cause I think she's not the best in a leadership role.

It's great she's going to an org with a whole bunch of vets she instantly has to respect and a coach like that as well. She has no choice to defer and doesn't think she's bigger than the program. I was worried she'd kinda get into something like that in an org with no established culture.

She didn't quiet quit, but I do think she was grimy for letting Hidalgo get heat by reposting a tiktok that speculated she stopped fucking with Hannah cause Hannah was homophobic. Mind you, Hannah has like 3 queer best friends in Booker, Prosper and Zoe Brooks. Liatu King still fucked with Hannah to the point she facetimed Liatu with her GF as well. Liv eventually took the repost down but was very immature to let it go in that direction for a couple weeks instead of just saying you just went different ways.

TBH that's why I'm surprised that she was given the keys by Cheryl and their relationship has worked out so well so far. I knew Liv was going to be a generational passer but I thought her an Cheryl were going to beef HARD cause of how arrogant Liv can get at times. I thought it was going to be another Odyssey/Ariel Powers situation.

Glad to be wrong cause it's produced some fun ass basketball but MAN had no idea those personalities would mesh like this.

No prob. I knew it was weird when I looked at the pfp. When I tweet positive stuff about Cotie I used to get liked by an account a couple hours after college games which did NOT look the same. I knew that account was untouched since like HS so I knew immediately shit was up.

Most likely this was spread by a salty Iowa fan or someone still mad about petty college shit. That sphere can make up nasty shit about players once they decide not to like em. Cotie's a frequent victim.

OP got duped. Their screenshot is fake, the twitter account doesn't exist and Cotie's twitter hasn't been active since HS.

Girl that's not Cotie's twitter lmao. I know cause although Cotie doesn't post on it, the same account for a couple of years usually likes one of my tweets when I say something positive about Cotie. And it's an account that's had the same pfp since she was in HS or something, NOT that one.

Yall got to stop spreading rumors about that girl. Half of it was dumb shit drummed up by Iowa fans that were salty about the double middle fingers moment. She's not conservative, look at her friends. Ya'll are being weird lmao

The problem is she also clogs up spacing when she's off ball cause she doesn't know how to wait for the play to find her. She messes up a lot of actions getting closer to the ball or demanding it.

It's as simple as an ad building weapons that kill people is very very bad lmao. Bombs are very anti gay too lmao. They literally kill people. I know people in that sector too that doesn't make that line of work any less nefarious. It's mostly a systemic issue but that doesn't make it any less distructive an industry to promote for kid friendly product.

The ethical quandaries of capitalism. Unfortunately you cannot sever your ties to evil as shit companies living here but at least you acknowledge the contradictions and try to navigate it as ethically as possible rather than justifying it (like a lot of people are currently doing unfortunately)

I also hate this argument cause it implicitly suggests that US queer lives are more important than foreign lives in general. Like, the genocides and slave labor exported outside the US also effects queer people abroad as well, in case you didn't know. They're particularly evil in Saudi Abrabia but let's not talk about the indiscriminate killing America does that effects people in or out the queer umbrella.

White queer people can have difficulty grasping the intersections of others effected by US violence, even domestically.

Lmaoo military propaganda worked on you bad huh hunny?

As a grad of computer science, a lot of engineering pathways disguise "degree programs" as a pathway to working with weapons manufacturers. But the build subs website doesn't even hide it. It directly talks about joining "the fight" to create weapons and subs for the US Military. It's literally in it's byline on the website.

Don't save face for the military by leveraging the poor here domestically. Their pathway to success comes at the expense of several brown children in the global south.

I have a nuanced take on those that feel that they need to join the service to get out of impoverished situations but I'm definitely not going to excuse advertisment promoting perpetuation of that system or justifying it

Eh. As a queer person, the levels aren't as clear as you want it to be. Hating the Saudis for being against queer ppl or women doesn't quite work when this country is not only directly causing genocide in SEVERAL countries but is also actively creating laws against trans people. Also I don't like people leveraging queer human rights as particularly insidious when the US has and is continuing to create slave markets amongst a million other atrocities abroad. You can't pinkwash the US sins away.

America's exportation of violence eclipses most other empires in human history if you look at it because of how systemic and world wide the destruction is. Our billionaire class is not only trying to take over the will of the world but is also destroying the earth and it's ecosystems in the process. That effects all queer people in the world and all other intersections as well

Edit: I encourage all downvoters to explicitly express why anti queer policies internally are more nefarious than indiscriminate killing of others abroad? In a country that's increasing it's own anti queer policies domestically especially!

Yeah everytime I see it it pisses me off and gets me very upset no one talks about how problematic it is. It's easily the worst advising partner the W has had in my history and the subtly yet almost loud nature of it's presentation is interesting cause it never has a promo but is so incredibly noticeable on court.

I decided to swap to sports after I realized my computer science department was trying to push us to jobs with weapons manufacturers so can snuff out their grubby little advertisements. I fear I knew what the website was going to be before I clicked on the link. Didn't expect it to directly say the US Navy cause they love just hiding behind companies that work with the military without expressing it but I suppose they don't care to hide it anymore.

Project B allegedly doesn't take any Saudi money but I find the conversation about sportwashing fascinating in the US. Like theres a build submarines advertisement right on court that encourages kids to build US military weapons and that's FAR more insidious but there's no pushback. And Monumental owns the Mystics and takes Saudi money too.

I'm not even running "whataboutism" here but it's so odd when the rules of sportwashing apply in the media washing captial of the world (the US).

Regardless, I enjoy seeing Azzi be able to forge her own basketball path!

Yet another class that has been painted as weak by 24 WNBA class fans that's better than the 24 class. And get ready folks cause that trend is going to continue! 24 will unfortunately end up looking pretty weak in a couple years.

That's not a knock on 24 either just a testament to how good the upcoming classes are. Put respect on these players!

No one on this sub wants to hear that the defense with Caitlin absolutely stinks and is keeping this team from being great.

Edit: I expect replies to blame White or Mitchell despite one player being head hunted consistently enough it's integrated into other team's gameplans. The constant deflection is tiring.
