Hump Day Quickie 48
A few things making me gasp, gag, and giggle this week:
WNBA star Brittney Griner, who has been detained in Russia since February, was sentenced to 9 years in prison over drug charges. Her case may lead to a high-profile prisoner swap with a convicted arms dealer known as "The Merchant of Death." That’s a pretty big ask over some vape cartridges… 🏴☠️
More than 90 Canadian bobsled and skeleton athletes are sliding into The Minister of Sport’s DMs with pleas to help fix the sports’ toxic culture 🛷
Ever wonder why our voice assistants are all female? Alexa, find me an article about gender bias in AI 📱
Need a laugh? Julia Fox’s outfit for “running errands” is both hilarious and a total serve. She really said, “muses only” 🕶
We love love! Read these speculative tweets on who Pete Davidson will date next. Martha Stewart recently referred to him as “a charming boy,” so anything is possible…💖
Speaking of relationships, I can’t stop reading this story about a daughter helping her mom find friends in old age. Everyone needs a girlgang👯♀️
Bonus! I’m hosting a book event! Come grab a coffee with me and Lorelei on Saturday 🐹
