This photoset hurts so much. May these women be free to play, sweat and love joyously again inshaAllah.

Many Afghan girls and women who once played a variety of sports say the Taliban have forbidden them from doing so after intimidating visits and phone calls.

Had an absolute blast chatting with this beauty, @Jason_Priestley. 🇨🇦
You may know him most significantly from 90210, but he’s one hell of a director. Really enjoyed “Offside: The Harold Ballard Story”.
Thx for being on #playersownvoice, cousin! 😂💪🏻

Brandon Tsay, the 26-year-old who runs Lai Lai Ballroom & Studio with his family, wrestled an assault weapon from the gunman who killed 10 people on Saturday in Monterey Park. Tsay struggled with the gunman, eventually disarming him and saving countless lives.
Academics from various fields connected to sport are calling on the PM to take strong action against abuse in sports. Incredible.

Guys, @DavidSRudin commentary on my bornday. I am speechless and simultaneously elated. cc @GurinderC
Happy birthday to this wonderful human being ❤️
She giggles everytime the fans behind the net wave those thingys to throw off shooters from the line. She thinks they're so cute.
OK we're up 112-98 so she is clapping again. She's also very happy to see a Sikh dancer as part of the Northside Crew. She is pointing all of the racial diversity out to me. She's a 50+ years hockey fan and this is her first professional bball game ever.
Maman suddenly has the basketball knowledge of an expert and is vocal about any calls against the hometeam.
Y'all, Raptors are up 97-88 and she has started booing the Knicks everytime they touch the ball. Cole Caufield is injured so now she is adopting Scottie Barnes for the season.
This whole music during play threw us at first…but I’m thinking hockey should take some notes! HBD by the way! 🥳
Maman just got mad at me for being on my phone because it is now a 2 pt game and my tweeting might have caused it.
Saw you on the big screen, @_shireenahmed_ ! @CSHWT prairie province crew is taking in their first @Raptors game tonight. P.s. You weren’t lying about your selfie game! 🔥🔥🔥
Celebrating my birthday with Maman.
LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOO @Raptors

No pressure @Raptors but every time Maman has attended her beloved @CanadiensMTL games they won. Tonight is her first 🏀 game. Get it done. #WeTheNorth cc @strizzzy
