Tw: abuse

Please read Kelli’s thread. She speaks about how traumatizing it was and a specific incident where her coach fatshamed her for not “passing” the fitness test. She explained she wasn’t feeling well, and he weaponized the in ability to pass a fitness test and ended up having Grave’s disease. She was legitimately ill. And he terrorized her for it. She also retweeted a teammate who said that a therapist likened their situation to a hostage situation in terms of ptsd it caused.

These players are so hurt, and losing their love of the game minute by minute. We have to change college soccer culture immediately.

This morning’s article could be really triggering for so many people. Just wanted to drop a link to the National Sexual Assault Hotline for anyone who’s had to endure that trauma and may need help or want to talk about the heaviness they’re feeling this morning. ❤️

Thank you!! So important to remember. ❤️

So much respect for Mana Shim and Sinead Farrelly for going public with all of the abuse they suffered to protect other players from Paul Riley. I can't imagine how difficult that must have been. And to air all of their private and deeply personal trauma must have been incredibly difficult for them.

Side note- I actually feel like the involvement of Alex Morgan here and her being willing to go on the record and verifying some of Mana Shim's story might be helpful in bringing about the downfall of Riley. She's a powerful force and being one of the most prolific players in the league/woso world this will pick up even more momentum. Kudos to her for chasing down nwsl and coordinating the petition that ultimately seems to have lead to the anti harassment policy (which has already led to multiple firings).

We’ve failed to protect the humans in favor of the idea.

I have to LAUGH at all the uswnt fans on tik tok that are genuinely saying “fire Vlatko and/or bring back Jill” they definitely only joined after we won the 2019 World Cup 😂

She deserved better

Say whatever you want about Carli, but thinking about her doing sprints on an empty field because she doesn’t want it to end absolutely ripped my heart to shreds.

Let’s talk about what each team DOES deserve:

- A federation that supports them and doesn’t treat them like an afterthought

- Facilities that are safe

- Staff that are well trained and well vetted to provide a safe environment for players

- Services the protect both their physical and mental health

- Equal pay

- Competent coaching staff that will use each player to their potential regardless of “favorites,”make sound decisions that keep players safe, and not be the puppet for their federation (be able to advocate for their players)

- A fanbase that doesn’t degrade players publicly and literally @ them on social media 🤡

i need people to understand that “save the bees” means saving the native pollinators that are actually in danger right now.

domestic honey bees are doing just fine, and in fact are out-competing native pollinators because they have human intervention giving them the leg up. meanwhile local pollinators are disappearing and with them a lot of the plants they co-evolved with will likely disappear too, along with every species that relies on those plants including us.

save your local wild bees, do that by planting native flowers, cutting out pesticides, and letting the dandelion/clover and other “weeds” grow. honey bees don’t need your help.
