I'm always pulling for naomi bc she saw big tennis trying to position her as the sweet less opinionated lighter skinned young hope vs. Serena when they were crossing trajectories and she said NO to that narrative

OH that makes me love her even MORE. like we love when black people reject colorism and misogynoir and choose solidarity. okay lemme edit my bio IMMEDIATELY. like naomi osaka, you have been PROMOTED.

naomi is back into the top 30 and at her highest ranking since her comeback in 2024! (no. 29)

Sad for Rublev, happy for Naomi

musing about the specific emotional weight of being a fan of a sport like tennis

[mousemannation]

the thing is when I think about angelmouse I am filled with so much positivity and hope and wonder that I can never be mad at him. when I think about devilmouse I am filled with so much angst and worry and dread but also a tiny glimmering jewel of hope that I also can’t be mad at him. I think im just bad at being mad at people. Or mice I guess XD

Did you watch the men's final in Roland Garros [between Alcaraz and Sinner] and what did you draw from it?

[mousemannation]

reasons why mouse man and casper r twins

- their birthdays r two months apart (dec ‘98 and feb ‘99)

- both struggled/ing to win a masters despite seeing success at other levels, even slams

- both seen as nice chill guys who never get particularly frustrated on court

- golf

- can speak spanish

- 183cm (six foot) tall

alex don't be afraid you can do it

[mousemannation]

now if mouse man really wanted to make it up to me he could practice with carlos in cinci :3

[mousemannation]

I can’t be mad that he lost bc he’s had such a good start to this hc swing !!! I mean, he didn’t have any points to defend since he was out entirely between wimby and uso last year with the hip injury- and now he’s won a 500 and made the qf of a masters back to back! This also means he’ll get a couple days of rest before his first match in Cinci, so silver linings!!

[mousemannation]

😞 alright so cinci, shanghai or paris it is

which masters 1000 will mouse man win this year? canada does have narrative potential but madrid would be fun.. or maybe one of the sunshine double…
