Trying our best and being very brave about it

2. Get a Full stamina wheel from eating a baked potato

Taissa Turner: Minnesota Lynx 🐾🐆 - Always a contender. Excellent team. Driven. Charismatic. Their biggest opponent is themselves. GAY.

Van Palmer: New York Liberty 🗽🐘- The personality, the fun, the best mascot in the league. The Libs play with a lot of heart and anyone who is a fan of them is sure to have a great time. GAY

Shauna Shipman: Indiana Fever 🤒♨️ - Who else could it be? The team everyone loves to hate. Not many people feel indifferent to them. But they are the most popular team. They are very skilled but often overshadowed by the drama.

Jackie Taylor: LA Sparks 🌴✨- Beloved team from the origin of the league that has lost some of its sparkle. They have the money, they have all the tools to be excellent, but just aren’t able to step into their Queen Bee role anymore. Can’t blame fans for loving them.

Misty Quigley: Connecticut Sun ☀️🩳- Team that’s been around for ages but has not secured a win. They just really gotta get it together. They try, though. Fans are loyal and chill people.

Natalie Scatorccio: Las Vegas Aces 🃏♠️- Often starting out each season as disorganized and a bit messy, but they never fail to completely lock in and become a force to be reckoned with. Overrated but who can blame anyone for loving them. Easily the most fun team to party with.

Lottie Matthews: Phoenix Mercury 🌡️- Always in playoff contention. Very serious team. Controversial. Tough physicality. You can dislike them, but you cannot deny their ability and magnetism. It’s heliotrope, not purple.

Laura Lee: Seattle Storm ⛈️⚡️ - GAY. Very formative team in the franchise that has lost some luster. Surprisingly fierce competition. Soars to big heights before crashing down.

Mari Ibarra: Dallas Wings 🐴🪽- The team with ✨personality✨ we all root for them so badly but decisions out of their control take them out every damn time. It can be controversial to like them, but that’s just hater behavior. So gay.

Akilah: Washington Mystics 🧙🏾‍♀️🪄- Team Youngblood! Youngest roster. Well-loved by fans everywhere, good sportsmanship. Skilled and versatile.

Travis Martinez: Atlanta Dream 🌙🦅- Underrated team! One of the greats! Less flashy about their accomplishments than other teams but are a solid performer and a backbone of the league.

Javi Martinez: Portland Fire 🔥 🌹- Baby franchise that’s not the best by any stretch but people that like the team are having a good time, that’s what counts. Was away for a long time then came back. Some heartbreaking losses.

Melissa Hat: Golden State Valkyries 👼🗼- Newer franchise that’s quickly came swinging right out of the gate. Hotshots. Hard to dislike because there’s a good earnestness there. Sometimes makes decisions that have you going “girl, what in the hell are you doing?”

Gen: Toronto Tempo 🥁🧮- Newer franchise that’s quickly finding its footing! A skilled team that has good balance. Do not underestimate them!

Coach Ben: Chicago Sky 🏙️🌥️- The team that has many makings of greatness but poor administrative decisions and injuries are always impacting them. Get it together, please.

One of the main appeals of Nat and Shauna’s roles on the show is how they contrast in the ways they express trauma and anger. They both have a deep sense of self-hatred and a core belief that they poison the people they love and are therefore undeserving of closeness, but they embody it through completely different survival mechanisms. Shauna externalizes and lashes out until she has destroyed everything she could possibly risk caring about and allowing herself to love. Nat internalizes and drowns in her guilt until she has destroyed herself to the point that no one will come near her. Shauna cannot tolerate her grief and self-blame sitting inside her, so she projects it outward onto everyone around her. Nat turns it inward and lets it consume her. And in doing so, both of them continually recreate the very conditions that traumatized them in the first place. Shauna’s externalization manifests as violence, continually reinforcing her belief that she is dangerous and undeserving of love, while Nat’s internalization leaves her frozen and passive, complicit in harms she can never forgive herself for, trapping her in a relentless cycle of guilt and self-punishment.

That’s why they understand each other so deeply while also constantly clashing. Shauna sees Nat’s moral posturing as hypocrisy because she recognizes the same guilt inside her. Nat sees Shauna’s brutality and rejects it because Shauna externalizes what Nat spends her entire life trying to contain ("Keep the tiger in the cage").

I don’t want to see Nat become outwardly abusive and aggressive in the way Season 3 Shauna was. That trauma response is unique to Shauna, in the same way that Lottie’s religious fanaticism is unique, Tai’s compartmentalization and dissociation are unique, Van’s escapism, Misty’s obsession, Travis’ submission, ETC. Each character represents the many different, complex faces of trauma. The brilliance of Nat’s dark side is that it comes out through manipulation, playing the moral high ground, and remaining complicit. She has brief, fleeting moments when her anger breaks through the surface, and we see her lash out, but she almost always retreats afterward, collapsing inward and resuming her state of passivity and paralysis in the face of her guilt. Nat’s pathology has always been quieter than Shauna's, but it can be equally as destructive.

em dash

“not x, not y, but z”

short sentence stacking as a stylistic choice

none of these belong to ai. these are all what human writers have been writing since day one, way before ai was invented. ai was trained to mimic how human writers write — so em dash, not x not y but z and short sentence stacking would never have been used by ai at all if ai hadn’t learned and mimicked them from human writers.

no, you are not “fighting against ai” by accusing every work that has em dash, not x not y but z or short sentence stacking in it as ai-generated, you are helping ai harm the writing community by engaging in witch hunt and scaring human writers away from creating/sharing their works for fear of being wrongly accused of using ai.
