@ChrisMayLA6 absolutely.

More generally, I tend to ignore sports writing and sports interviews. It is usually either egotistical dross or astonishingly banal.

I played my sport to the highest level it has. I knew I was competing against people much more gifted than I, but I worked damned hard at it, as hard as I could, and *loved* being a part of it.

So often, sports journalism has no appreciation of or understanding of that inner life, or of the fine margins in play

@urlyman @ChrisMayLA6 I happened to come across a beautiful bit of sports radio yesterday.. Ravi is a young blind cricket fan and player who basically took over the radio coverage at Edgbaston during tea. He was interviewed himself..then introduced to several players who he then interviewed - far more competently than the usual presenters! He was at interviewed at Headingly too.

Ma copine Marie Adèle aka Vénus de Mai, artiste performeuse burlesque et aérienne et prof, lance son studio de pole dance / cerceau aérien à Paris, la Venus School of Baddies 🎉

Un projet d'école d'aérien et de souplesse pour celleux qui ne répondent pas aux normes et/ou ne trouvent pas leurs places dans un studio normé. Une école sans grossophobie, sans queerphobie, sans racisme et sans putophobie. Et dieu sait que c'est difficile à trouver dans le monde de la pole dance (on se sait les poleuxses).

BREF elle a lancé une campagne de financement participatif pour l'aider à équiper le futur studio, n'hésitez pas à participer / partager : https://fr.ulule.com/venus-school-of-baddies/
