Jesus Christ I thought Douthat had some self respect at least but nope, it's all self debasement for Christian nationalism

The lifetime net worth of someone in this situation is well above median!! This is not poverty!!

Tight cash flow in the toddler years followed by decades of saving for retirement is not the same as poverty and honestly it is disrespectful to treat these problems as even substantially similar

If they invent a prize exclusively for you, it's not a prize, you're being condescended to because you're a little shit baby who shits and farts when you don't get what you want

Dreamed I got a chastising message at work that said, “You should know the names of all the Muppets,” and someone stuck up for me, saying, “I don’t think this one has a name,” and they attached a picture of like a white Gonzo with no eyes

"what does it profit a man to gain the whole world and lose his soul" just being played out in real time, many times over, every day, and hoo boy is it a cautionary tale for those with eyes to see and ears to hear

i cheated on a quiz one time in 8th grade and that shit took a piece of me for real

def not the point, but is he wearing a fleece quarter zip with a suit? what the fuck?

f you see this, repost with your model of positive masculinity

Yeah for a lifelong Met fan I'm weirdly not neurotic at all so I just spend the off season dreaming about how great all these players are going to be once we bring them in and they magically figure it out lol

It's all flashing the leather instead of sugar plums dancing in my head all holiday season

i mean, do any of us have any reason to think we're better at scouting than the scouting department?

Adjusting for park effects, Trump wins it walking away

Luis Robert Jr OPS+ for last six years 100 154 110 130 86 85

Luis Robert WAR for last six years 1.9 3.7 2.2 5.3 1.4 1.4

I mean, these are numbers that invite dreaming, especially from a solid defender in a position that doesn't usually include a lot of offensive production

Cruelty is anhedonic. It rarely delivers the euphoria promised because, in the abstract, what feels righteous and joyful inevitably reveals itself to be sordid and small. Then it's "No not like that". "No not enough". "No the real battle, the forever war to make this feel good starts now". Forever.

As I've gotten older, the ratio of hell yeah to any other response has gone way way up

getting scalding hot coffee spilled all over my lap because the waitress got antsy on the hard count

at the diner, halfway through my order "western omel-BLUE-22-belgian waffle"

sounds great when do we start

if i described a public figure as "a hornt up, discarded leather satchel who evidently subsists on rancid organ meat slurry, silica gel pouches, and anabolic steroids," you'd know who I meant, right

Yeah I default toward blanket anti murder but I don't have a very coherent ethical position on violence of the oppressed against the oppressor

Like there are clearcut cases where killing someone is justified (they're about to kill you or your child etc), cases where it isn't, but lots of murk b/w

Look if you can't admit this is a banger line, idk

If you, as an instructor, can't design an assessment that is robust to bad faith requests for extra time, you need to get better at your job!

In 20 years in higher ed, this has never once been a problem I've witnessed even secondhand. It's a fake problem. Just make the accommodations

They don't have any "our guys". It will never affect them directly except for the chance to cash in on sadism propaganda

A rule I've struggled to apply but recommend is: if I wouldn't call a friend stupid for not knowing something, I'm not allowed to call myself stupid for not knowing it.

Way to learn new things!! Good job!
