24/25 women's wrap up
me having this level of
“ball knowledge”
has to be funny
(if not a bit jarring)
because my
“arc”
is giving
ex-varsity cheerleader
turned OF e-girl
but it’s been in my life as long as i can remember
(even longer than skateboarding)
i also can’t leave my
“dwelling”
much
so i can really only watch futbol all day
so obviously i’m going to form
“opinions”
(thoughts and rage that linger in my body for months on end)
i split men’s and women’s up this time
so
LADIES FIRST
ENJOY 😜
WOSO NEWS
CHAMPIONS LEAGUE

CHELSEA V BARCELONA
i didn’t say when the demons would strike
i just said
“ it’s demons afoot”
and they are
they’re just
“dormant”
barely any LJ
no Fish
minimal Guro
no Sam Kerr
the second leg was NaeNae’s second game
if Barca didn't
“Barca”
(go absolutely ape shit)
i would have been surprised
next year will be different
it has to be
(it was tough watching my babies get abused like that tho)
but now i get to gush about my favorite
BON MA TI
shes a sicko
she put her foot on the ball
on her half’s 18
brought it to a dead stop
CASUALLY
UNDER PRESSURE
and just scanned the pitch
and that’s when i knew that game was over
(s/o autism)
she also dribbled it from her half and shot it
so confidently
from an angle i deemed
“a crap shot”
and she net shook it
again a sicko
“Fem Messi”
type shit

ARSENAL V BARCELONA
i love Foxy
(an American legend)
and Chloe Kelly
(an Everton legend)
so i always tap in to see if my girls are doing well
when the semi-final second leg score blooped to my phone
i audibly yelped in excitement and did a lil jig right before i got on the train
(see “THIS SHIT MEANS SOMETHING TO ME”)
SO SEEING THEM BEAT BARCELONA IS LEGENDARY
that game was phenomenal
low scoring but nowhere near boring
incredible
CONGRATS ARSENAL
seeing Bonmati cry was hard to watch tho

“WORLD” XI
this was actually not fun, and i feel crazy leaving people out
yall are all amazing
(and unlike the men)
deserve so much more
but i had to
(so it’s lowkey just a EURO XI)

“bUT LuCY PLaYs ON thE RIGht!!”
Lucy can do literally anything
(s/o autism)
and i couldn't leave her out
she’ll figure it out
BENCH: MARY FOWLER, “BUN BUN” SHAW, LJ, CALDENTEY, SANDY B
BALLON D'OR CONTENDER: JUST BONMATI

FAV GOAL OF THE SEASON: SARA HOLMGAARD OLIMPICO VS CHELSEA
WSL THOTS
the FA banning trans women from playing the sport they love is insane
that ruling might affect literally 15 people directly
if not closer to 5
the choice should be with the people
if not the players
not a faceless board comprised of old straight men
who are deathly afraid of a t-girl stealing their wife
(i’m assuming)
the women’s game is inherently queer
by nature of women being more open and having to carry more burdens of reality
(idk like repopulating the planet)
it has to be more progressive and more inclusive
(also news flash…these bitches do be kissing)
so to do this seems like an adherence to the past
not a commitment to the future
(sorry to burst your bubble, but the future is rainbow-colored)
i’m non-binary
grew up male
so i’ve played all sorts of people in my life
of different sizes
gender
and at all levels of skill
so i can say in full confidence
i’d be fucking
TERRIFIED
to play Chawinga
none of this is that big of a deal if you really think about it
but if you’re still having trouble
here’s a better way to frame it
Sex⇢ what’s in your pants
Gender⇢ what run you’re going to make
i know that sounds dumb
but it’s really that simple
if your goal is on the future of the game
and you’re looking to build stadiums for women's football
(literally building a church for queer people)
a trans person or two might want to come
and might even be inspired to play
if they have nowhere to go
what’s the point
if you’re arguing
“fairness”
id say having to sit on the sidelines your entire life
because your mind and spirit are wired differently
is truly the most
“unfair”
situation i can think of
if you’re not beholden to the current state of football
(egregious levels of sports betting and inconsistent officiating)
the answer is clear
let them play
(Chelsea is still going to go undefeated anyways)

CHELSEA INVINCIBLE TREBLE
the funny thing about this club is i should hate them
but they’re my favorite team in the WSL
(outside of my other girls)
but they’re the perfect example of how you can have an
almost oligarchic reign over the league
FOR YEARS
and still play enjoyable football
all while retaining a warm, loving, and open club culture
Congrats
never doubted it
literally some of the best players in the world
doing what they do best
DOMINATING
IN STYLE
also
that FA CUP final formation
is chefs kiss
at first
i was like
“5 in the back?? who are you scared of??”
then i saw her release the cannons and i was like
“oh i see..she’s cooking”
(watching Lucy meg people and go on goal is just what i needed)
big s/o Sandy Baltimore and Cat Macario
y’all really did that shit
(mama scored and immediately kicked the spare ball…born a star type shit)

GOTHAM NEWS
i know there is no Rose
to create beauty in the midfield
and no Tierna
to yell at mfers
so i understand why shits going like this
(y’all are doing great, it’s just “circumstances”…and formation…which is fixable)
but at the same time, i’m sick of yelling at my TV
and dozing off
so here
the first ones free:

or this

(if you’re feeling freaky)
either should suffice
just please stop trying to play down the middle
it’s
“doing me head in”
also
it’s almost never Sonnett’s fault
also also
i don’t mind being an
“equipment manager” ☢︎
