I'm just not staying on top of deadlines (granted, I'm having a baby in less than 30 days) and it is like if it isn't in front of me, I'm not thinking about it.
I'm taking an online training through my university and I think I was right on that I would not be a great online student.
I'm itching closer to being about a month away from my due date and I really should not schedule meetings after lunch.
Great🧵 from my @propublica.org colleague @nicolefoy.bsky.social 👇
"I thought the joke was distasteful & unfortunate, & I think the way women are represented, it's a great teaching point to really shine light on how women should be championed for their amazing feats. Now I have to sit in front of you and explain someone else's behavior? It's not my responsibility."
Hilary Knight got the question re: that phone call and the laughter at the Torrent presser. Her answer:
This is an educational catastrophe designed to weaken the humanities at University of Texas.
I need to stop thinking about the US men's hockey team. I can understand the peer pressure in the moment but....like don't double down. Apologize and like don't make your mom have to explain your poor choices.

An NPR investigation finds the public database of Epstein files is missing dozens of pages related to sexual abuse accusations against President Trump. n.pr/4qTItsU
Need something for a student. Quick: links to essays on what it feels like to listen to, or love, a musician? Not criticism -- the personal experience of loving a song or an album or a musician's work?
The Epstein files document what many women researchers have long experienced but rarely seen laid bare so starkly: exclusion operating behind closed doors, shaping who gets funded, invited, mentored, and taken seriously. How many of these networks, norms, and gatekeepers remain in place?
Sigh, had someone send an email at 4:53 p.m. on Friday and is expecting me to provide answers for a reference by EOD today..........
USA's Olympic gold medal winning women's hockey team has declined President Donald Trump's White House invitation.
Earlier Trump mocked the women's team on a call with USA's men's team.

A weird fun fact is that my father-in-law wrote and produced t.A.T.u.’s album so it’s the first and probably only time our work will overlap (I interviewed him for this).
And the women’s team:
- the daughter of Chinese immigrants who rebuffed an aggressive campaign to get her to skate for China
- the daughter of an Italian immigrant embryologist mom who named her after a Michelle Pfeiffer character
- the pansexual daughter of a Texas cop (who is her biggest fan)
Scott Hamilton almost crying has me almost crying in my office.

🚨 WORLD RECORD 🚨
Less than a week after moving to third in world history in the indoor 800m, Keely Hodgkinson blasts a 1:54.88 in Liévin to break Jolanda Čeplak’s previous high-water mark.
Čeplak ran the previous record on the same day Hodgkinson was born nearly 24 years ago.

WOW......
THE USA PLAYED IT LIKE A GOLD MEDALIST 🥇
Congratulations to the 16 PWHL players who will be bringing home the gold with Team USA!
OT is sudden-death, 3-on-3, in 20-minute periods until someone ends it with a golden goal.
This will be the fourth straight U.S. - Canada women's hockey gold medal match decided by one goal.
This is scary!
KNIGHT WITH TWO MINUTES LEFT IN THE GOLD MEDAL GAME R U KIDDING
So great but also, ESPN has had 15 years to get this going. Keep in mind it owned the rights to WNBA, NCAA women’s sports and all four Grand Slams at the height of Serena’s dominance. People pitched these shows. The network didn’t just find out about women’s sports.

Funny story, the R&R on this was due Dec.24. I waited to the last minute and then my husband on Dec.23 has to have an emergency appendectomy. I still got it in and it was accepted Dec.29.
