The most uninspired, boring, unorganized USWNT game I have seen in the last five years I’ve watched the team. These last three games have been a disaster, and I think it mostly falls on Vlatko. A disorganized defense, a weak and cautious offense. There is no confidence in this team and they are being told to play things too safe, creating holes in every position and taking away opportunities for great plays because of potential risk. This was never the attitude of the USWNT until Vlatko became the coach. He is afraid of losing and that’s proven by how willing he was to draw. His attitude is affecting our players in a massive way.
Happy Supercorp Sunday y’all!
hey just so everyone knows, It Was A Draft
the supreme court decision to overturn Roe v. Wade is not official yet. someone leaked a draft of the opinion that the members of the court have been circulating and revising (the draft was created by justice samuel alito).
which is insane by the way. it’s the first time that a draft of a supreme court decision has ever been leaked in the entire history of this country.
it makes perfect sense to feel grief or panic or dread or sadness or anger or whatever you’re feeling right now. this is fucking terrible and scary. just for the sake of avoiding misinformation, i wanted to clarify this because i think a lot of the headlines have been misleading, and the info gets even more misconstrued when it’s rephrased on social media and stuff
“Someone can be madly in love with you and still not be ready. They can love you in a way you have never been loved and still not join you on the bridge. And whatever their reasons you must leave. Because you never ever have to inspire anyone to meet you on the bridge. You never ever have to convince someone to do the work to be ready. There is more extraordinary love, more love that you have never seen, out here in this wide and wild universe. And there is the love that will be ready.”

ONCE AGAIN LADIES AND GENTLEMEN KATIE MCGRATH IS THE TOP FEMALE TUMBLR CELEBRITY LETS HEAR IT FOR THE QUEEN
So, you’re leaving. It must’ve been a hard decision.
Honestly…it wasn’t.
So, running with the idea that Lena fell utterly and completely in love with Kara (first) but thought Kara was unavailable (straight, bc, c'mon Lena flirted hard and Kara didn't get it), and with Lena's love and healthy relationships deprived upbringing and young adult life...
...I will always have a hard time not head-canon'ing Lena coming to associate "best friend" in regards to Kara (a name that in Irish/Gaelic even means "friend / beloved") with "person I am truly, madly, deeply, irrevocably, utterly in ...an emotionally dependent relation-- yeah, relation with". And it got so stuck in her brain over 5 years that even when they possibly maybe totally finally become a romantic couple, certified genius Lena Kieran Luther will refer to her Kara still as "my best friend" without so much as considering the platonic implication. Like, she knows they are "girlfriends" but her brain is hard wired to thinking "Kara = my best friend". And that wouldn't even be a bad thing, tbh, because even when they become a couple, they are still best friends first, forged through fire, hell and back.
And, yeah, she'd also be a total Luthor and call dips on Kara and stake her well-deserved claim every chance she can get and refer to her as "my Kara" even outside the context of the multiverse...
Lena: *introducing* "...and this is my best friend, Kara."
Kara: *whispering* "...girlfriend, Lena. We're girlfriends now."
Lena: "Right." *clears throat* "This is my Kara, my best friend."
Kara: "..um, Lena?"
Lena: *confused* "...what?"
Kara: "...you know what, leave it to me." *shakes person's hand* "Hi, I'm Supergirl and I am dating my best friend."
Lena: *muttering to self* "...but that's what I said..."
