I was just commenting to a colleague yesterday that, here in Pakistan, the inefficient enforcement of our draconian laws has been a saving grace.

Many ask whether we should be celebrating this Eid. My answer in all hard times: We always celebrate Eid. No matter how grim things are, there's much to be thankful for and taking the time to celebrate helps us keep up the struggle to make them less grim.

Eid Mubarak to all!

As a civil servant upthread said, those who resisted were put on administrative leave.

Thinking of those fasting for Ramzan in Gaza or Khartoum. What a painful world we live in.

A thing I wish I could teach people is that the vast majority of very rich people are deeply stupid. They did not get where they are because of ingenuity or talent. They got there because of compound interest on hereditary wealth and being tax cheats.

I don't think it's possible to agree more wholeheartedly with someone. Married almost 20 years, no plans for that to change, but still skeptical about marriage. And what does that have to do with fantastic food?

How are you defining correct and right? Need a little help parsing this.

I personally think "trans people exist, are good, and have rights" can, if you try, be more popular than "let's release insurrectionists to pursue their passions of child porn and crime" or "what if high school interns spent 17 hours a day destroying everything you depend on"
