WNBA team reveals new queer turtle mascot to taunt Indiana Fever star Sophie Cunningham
New York Post ^ | Aug. 22, 2026 | Shane Galvin

The Toronto Tempo debuted a new “non-binary” mascot ahead of their WNBA matchup with the Indiana Fever in an apparent swipe at controversial star Sophie Cunningham.

The Tempo revealed Dez, a butch, non-binary Borealis Blue Snapping Turtle who uses she/they pronouns and “has a fondness for soft shell tacos,” the team said in an Tuesday announcement unveiling the new mascot.

Dez also has a partner in crime, anthropomorphic arctic hare named Dot who uses standard she/her pronouns.

So I guess they’re admitting the premise that these trans “women” are really just men with their male sexual appetite still intact. Which is the whole point of keeping them out of female locker rooms.

BTW, what an artless and unfunny attempt at innuendo.

Corrupt lying liberal ‘pollsters’ say 86% of Americans will fall for this story and only 3% of citizens doubt the turtle’s gay... (they forgot to mention the poll was taken in a gay bar in San Francisco...)

“soft shelled tacos” — I’m guessing it’s an allusion to female private parts.

Right about now, JimRob is probably spinning in his grave...SMH

I dont think it’s a case of go woke get broke. The group of fans in the one photo seem genuinely delighted. The point is that what appears to be a base of a whole bunch of lesbians is way too narrow to ever make the WNBA financially viable. Though, admittedly, the play is so wretched by NBA standards that I don’t know what they might do to broaden their appeal

Personally, I enjoy watching the slow-motion suicide of the GYNBA.

A person has to be in a very peculiar state of mind to watch a WNBA game, the Fever play tonight.

No green dildo for she/they who is likely to eat it.

These morons don’t know when to stop.

They will go back to having no one at their games, carrying their own luggage, and driving a VW microbus between games.

But they will be righteous.

They are just stupid.
