Yep. Back by the dumpsters. A pralines n' cream, they call it.

This repugnant man made Ohio State pay more than $64,000 for BOW TIE–SHAPED COOKIES. These are not serious people.

E. Gordon Gee: ‘Universities Have Become Isolated and Arrogant’ The former university president on how the sector got into trouble.

Higher education “got in trouble” by paying men like this exorbitant salaries to ruin the liberal arts teaching function while sucking up to trustees for perks. As a former subject of a Gee administration, E. Gordon Gee is a synonym for high-profile foolish waste of money.

A still from the Jack Donaghy–produced show, "Dad 2.0."

"Your father may be gone, but he programmed me to take his place."

"No! Shut it down! This is terrible."

Those of us who are SA survivors are used to the mass shrug in response to even the most overt evidence of horrific behavior. Epstein's crimes and the complicity of many influential figures involved have been known for decades (’05 to be exact). It's never mustered much interest or consequence.

It’s not over but when it is I will never, ever forget the “serious people” who buckled and compromised and abetted the torture and crime and murder for a fascist lottery ticket.

So is Harvard going to launch an investigation into Larry Summers, his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein, and the use of university resources to support him?

The good thing about real democracy is no one has to beg billionaires for money.

If so, why did party leadership work so hard to define the shutdown as being solely about the ACA?

Of course, none of this would have happened if the hydraulic system hadn't included an achilles heel, a point where multiply redundant systems all converged and could be taken out with one blow.

So what *caused* the crash?

... But the crack was also there because GE made the blade wrong. GE made the blade wrong because they got a bad titanium billet from a supplier. Also, lots more people would have died if the flight crew hadn't included such talented pilots and proactive communicators. ...

United Flight 232 went down because an engine blade broke and severed the hydraulic lines. The blade broke because it had a crack in it. The cracked blade went into service because United's inspectors didn't catch it. They didn't catch it because United's corporate culture allowed it to. ...

No. Go read an FAA crash report. There may be a material cause cited (e.g., the jackscrew threads were damaged on Alaska Air Flight 261), but they almost always cite multiple other material and nonmaterial factors as well (pilot behaviors, corporate cultures, communication practices, etc.).

Scoop: Schumer privately fought to extend government shutdown "We let him know what we were doing," said Sen. Jeanne Shaheen (D-N.H.).

Here’s the story by itself.

Again: either he’s a terrible leader b/c he can’t hold his caucus, a terrible leader b/c he can’t communicate in a way that reflects tensions within the caucus, or a terrible leader b/c he feeds the public fairy tales.

Those are the options. None flatter him.

Researchers have known for a long time that you can quickly spot when the fix is in by looking for statistically implausible numbers of games ending exactly one point under the spread.

Oh, I just got it! You said Kentucky fried french fries! KFF! SO FUNNY! I'm dyin here 😂

Can't spell "microdicked incel" without ICE.

That doesn't scan.

They're not doing even that. bsky.app/profile/inep...

I did and they're still not listening. Six out of eight of the largest mass movement protests in US history have happened since 2017—the single largest of which was less than a month ago. But Dem leadership is still addicted to comity and feckless bipartisanship. They will not respond to the people.

"Wow. That's one hell of an act. What do you call yourselves?"

If Dem leadership wants me to yell at Republicans more they could, you know, lead the way.

the minute flights got canceled, Dems folded like a house of cards, leaving me to wonder why the fuck this post made some of you so angry

I'm just here to help out with the drubbing. Get bent you feckless, wormy, oleaginous, corrupt, quisling, crusty, musty, fusty, blithering, dithering, withering, spineless, obsolete, effete, clunky, chunky, funky, incontinent, incompetent, capitulating, uninspiring, amoral, dickless piece of crap.

Hey, we know all about objecting to unanimous consent, dick.

I mean, Dick.

I guess regular working class people are supposed to sympathize with the people who cave the second they might have to work weekends
