Pictures of Williams leaving the tournament grounds following her match seemed to show that she was “walking OK” after receiving treatment.
Although the tennis legend, who turns 40 in September, has yet to reveal her future plans, her coach, Patrick Mouratoglou, appeared to suggest that they’d continue to work together.
“Serena trained hard. She was ready. She wanted it with all her heart. But unfortunately, her foot slipped and her body, as it reacted, broke down,” Mouratoglou wrote on Instagram. “It is heartbreaking but there is nothing we can do about it, except working and trying again.”
And, in a potential message of hope, he appeared to look to the future, simply writing: “See you soon.”

“We watched the Ricky Gervais ‘comedy’ special on Netflix so you don’t have to.”
Comedian and actor Ricky Gervais has a new special, Supernature, on Netflix starting today.

Throughout the special, Ricky makes several offensive jokes about trans people. At one point, he actually claims to “support trans rights” — before ending on another joke about trans people.

“Full disclosure: In real life, of course, I support trans rights,” he says. “I support all human rights, and trans rights are human rights. Live your best life. Use your preferred pronouns. Be the gender that you feel that you are. But meet me halfway, ladies: Lose the cock. That’s all I’m saying.”
People are understandably upset, and this afternoon, GLAAD issued a statement condemning the special’s “anti-gay rhetoric” in a series of tweets.
We watched the Ricky Gervais “comedy” special on Netflix so you don’t have to. It’s full of graphic, dangerous, anti-trans rants masquerading as jokes. He also spouts anti-gay rhetoric & spreads inaccurate information about HIV. 1/4

“Netflix has a policy that content ‘designed to incite hate or violence’ is not allowed on their platform, but we all know that anti-LGBTQ content does exactly that. While Netflix is home to some groundbreaking LGBTQ shows, it refuses to enforce its own policy in comedy.”

“The LGBTQ community and our allies have made it very clear that so-called comedians who spew hate in place of humor, and the media companies who give them a platform, will be held accountable. Meanwhile, there are PLENTY of funny LGBTQ comedians to support.”

This isn’t the first time Netflix — as well as a comedian whose work is primarily featured on Netflix — has faced backlash from GLAAD (as well as the LGBTQ+ community at large) for offensive content.

In October of last year, GLAAD also spoke out against Dave Chappelle‘s controversial Netflix special The Closer, which also featured anti-trans remarks from the comedian.

“Negative reviews and viewers loudly condemning his latest special is a message to the industry that audiences don’t support platforming anti-LGBTQ diatribes,” GLAAD said in a statement at the time. “We agree.”
Dave Chappelle’s brand has become synonymous with ridiculing trans people and other marginalized communities. Negative reviews and viewers loudly condemning his latest special is a message to the industry that audiences don’t support platforming anti-LGBTQ diatribes. We agree. https://t.co/yOIyT54819
In less than two weeks after the Buffalo, NY mass shooting, Biden had to face the American people once again and speak about another mass shooting that claimed the lives of elementary students and teachers.
Learning of the shooting on his way back from his trip to Asia, Biden took a minute to sympathize with parents and loved ones who can relate to losing a child, as he has lost his son, Beau, in 2015. Starting out his speech, he stated:
To lose a child is like having a piece of your soul ripped away. There’s a hollowness in your chest, [and] you feel like you’re being sucked into it, never able to get out…suffocating. It’s never quite the same.
Demanding action on gun control, Biden asked:
When, in God’s name, are we going to stand up to the gun lobby? When, in God’s name, will we do what we all know in our gut needs to be done?
Full of emotion, Biden said he was “sick and tired,” of the violence, and he posed another question:
How many scores of little children … witnessed what happened — see their friends die, as if they’re on a battlefield, for God’s sake?
Biden also wondered why are we willing to live in this type of chaos.
Why are we willing to live with this carnage? Where in God’s name is our backbone?
According to ABC News, Governor Greg Abbott has identified the suspect as 18-year-old deceased suspect Salvador Ramos. During an unrelated press briefing, Governor Abbott spoke about the Uvalde High School student. At the moment, he is accused of killing 19 kids and two adults, according to CNN.
Roomies, please continue to keep the families impacted by this tragedy in your prayers.
