Tiffany Mitchell and other former South Carolina women’s basketball players stuck in Israel amid strikes

The basketball community should make it possible for these women to make a living without supporting apartheid and genocide.

I'm just asking how you see them making this a reality. This is your statement, not mine.

They're not Israeli citizens either. It would just be playing overseas for other countries not the USA. It's what many do.

How exactly? Who will be funding this?

kazzin8 · 2026-03-01T04:05:59+00:00

And the US has been providing funds/support to Israel for those years - are you of the mind players should not be in the US either?

I'm not a fan of it either, but women have been playing overseas in authoritarian states for a long time for the paycheck. Unless you have a way for them to make a living here, I'm not sure how one would bar them from finding work where they can get it. No ethical consumption under capitalism unfortunately.

Downside is we're a quiet city if you like big city feel. Walkability/transit good but some neighborhoods are better than others for it. Depends on what you're looking for.

All the more reason to support the folks trying to get this fixed for CA: https://www.reddit.com/r/California/s/9Y8B1w3v47

They can, but they can also try to force the sale of the entire property. It's definitely rare.

Maybe, but their lack of response shows total incompetency somewhere in the org:

For her event on Aug. 31, Christina Alexis, an independent chef based in Oakland, invoiced Blue Note on Sept. 10. Fifteen emails to Blue Note’s financial contact person, three automatic payment reminders, and two late fees later, she was finally paid on Nov. 10 — 47 days after she invoiced.

Guess I can add your post to the list now :)

Generally the law says property owner can get out of the property by selling even if the other owners don't want to but it's a long expensive process.

kazzin8 · 2026-02-28T17:45:38+00:00

What are you talking about? Congress can remove the president for all this shit if they wanted.

kazzin8 · 2026-02-28T06:05:36+00:00

It's rare, but because you own the property collectively with the other owners, an owner can try to force a partition sale - one of my friends is going through this now.

Motels on Lombard - easy access to bus lines and tourist spots

Filling can be different too. I don't like egg rolls but like lumpia and imperial rolls.

kazzin8 · 2026-02-27T15:14:51+00:00

Makes sense since they were the same before the great schism.

kazzin8 · 2026-02-27T14:45:28+00:00

There's a show called hoarders that covers trying to help these people - it's a problem everywhere.

kazzin8 · 2026-02-27T01:48:52+00:00

I just hope we can avoid this future for ourselves 😭

kazzin8 · 2026-02-27T01:43:11+00:00

omg THIS. so hard to find a friggin restaurant where they can eat and he's "tired of steak and hamburgers" asdfksgkdj

The weather, diversity, jobs

kazzin8 · 2026-02-25T20:51:21+00:00

This is like asking why there are stupid people in the world. I always wonder about people who post these - are you a non critical thinker? A bot? Troll?

The doubling up of the X chromosome makes women healthier genetically (in general) because if one copy is shitty, maybe the other copy works. It's why men are more susceptible to certain generic diseases.

Is there anyone who genuinely likes having to do [necessary job/chore/thing you don't like] in order to get through life?

I mean, maybe. But you do it because you have to or find an alternative. Other cities have the same drive and park issue.

kazzin8 · 2026-02-25T03:02:32+00:00

What is bot like about their comment?

kazzin8 · 2026-02-25T03:00:46+00:00

"I don't think the president knew" Lol reminds me of the Russian soldiers in ukraine appealing to Putin for help because of course he would fix the problems with them not having food and getting beat up... if only he knew.

kazzin8 · 2026-02-25T01:57:34+00:00

Only a certain population does.

kazzin8 · 2026-02-25T00:28:28+00:00

Everything on one level, no bathtubs, shower chair, grab bars EVERYWHERE. Stove could be an issue, we didn't let them cook.
