Some news items I thought worth your time: • EuroSport: U.S. gymnast Simone Biles won her third gold medal at the Paris Olympics after coming out on top in the vault competition. • Instinct Magazine: Is Dating someone with different political beliefs a deal breaker? What happens when Cupid’s arrow lands on someone whose political views starkly contrast with our own? • New York Times: Huge congrats to Algerian Boxer Imane Khelif’s for her emotional victory today. Khelif broke down in tears after securing a medal at the 2024 Paris Olympics. Khelif is a cisgender woman. She qualified for the Olympics.
THIS!❤️ Imane Khelif bursts into tears after destroying Hamori (who had called her a devil man) 0-5 ! She’s now into semis & guaranteed herself a medal, after she was subjected to abuse by rightwing incels worldwide because a white girl couldn’t beat her. UNREAL COURAGE❤️ pic.twitter.com/0RFJpJd7kd
