when did having a thought, appreciating something beautiful become any less a part of “real life experience” than job training

I truly do not understand why members of the press continue this charade of doing pressers with him. And how every member of the press doesn't walk out after that. Like - the government needs the news to govern. There's power - you can withhold attention

The best thing about this is that it starts bad and gets infinitely worse the further you get - just like GenAI! Brilliant. Had me rolling.

If you see this, post a character that starts with A.

That’s all Trump was willing to spend?

I’ve seen the Judge Biery order going around, and I am so happy that it is what it is, but I am also now very interested in the grammar of the Bible.

One of the best actors of her generation. Easily one of the best comedians of all time. As much Catherine O’Hara as we got, it was nowhere near enough.

Take it from Catherine. Good is coming. It has to.

Catherine O’Hara didn’t steal scenes she just showed up and ownership automatically defaulted to her

At some point, the other MI senator said, “Well, we may need their cooperation at some point in the future.” Wolves and chicken coops and whatnot.

the primary blocker to UBI is the puritan belief that humanity is so sinful and depraved that it should not be permitted personhood unless it becomes 'civilised'

that's how liberal social policy ended up asserting that helping people would harm them but hurting people would help them

I’ll always remember the Tail Spin title card for some reason. This was like a shot of nostalgia, no chaser.

Five jobs I’ve had:

Landfill CQA
Gymnastics coach
Editorial Coordinator
Dept store stockroom
Curriculum Director

I hate to tap the sign but again: this is all made to make in-person education and access to knowledge transfer a preserve of the elite. Human education for the few, bots for the many.

This is a good idea. Please make it.

Smoking Behind the Supermarket With You is super slow burn (like forever), but it’s good and cute and funny. Volume 6 just released this week.

Sinners, a film about how Black people fought to survive and thrive, about the vampirism of white supremacy, about what people give up to integrate into whiteness, about the gifts of the ancestors who held onto their magic, is the perfect film to watch right now. It is full of hope and possibility ✊🏽

weird how the boat murders stopped once he got the oil, I guess all guys in the drug business changed careers

“How do I live without you? (I need more blood)” - classic LeAnn Rimes lyrics

I agree with Frank and would add that anyone seriously concerned with the concept of “cultural transmission” should consider the fact that requiring Hamlet by law won’t make anyone appreciate it. Opposite.

I made the mistake of going on LinkedIn today.

There has been a push of late for me to use “proven” methods when I coach teachers, and each time I get a little more confused about what that means.
