Yale owes all of us a prolonged apology.

Like, what science has RFK produced? What Nobel Prize has he won? What literature award has he been given? And yet he feels like he can put on the Cloak of Good Approval earned by the White Appreciation Society despite his lack of accomplishment because of his group membership.

Here is the Israeli Minister of Diaspora Affairs, spreading the antisemitic conspiracy theory that the Soros family are the puppet masters behind the election in Brazil yesterday. The Israeli Minister of Diaspora Affairs seems to see it as his job to make the Diaspora less safe.

The other thing that galls me about how Microsoft/Xbox is casting off studios and people is how, just a few years ago, it was spending literal billions of dollars to just buy up huge swathes of the industry.

Sounds the students may have successfully charged a horrible person off campus for good, well done.

Otherwise, you may end up reinforcing the narrative of civilizational *decline* that he is reciting.

i submit that the way to respond to this is not to invoke things that happened more than a thousand years ago but to point out that this person exists and was awarded the 2025 Nobel Prize in Chemistry en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Omar_M....

Hate to break it to y’all but Harvard defeated Army this week. 18 PLAYS, 74 YARDS 10 MINUTES & 2 SECONDS THE LONGEST SCORING DRIVE OF THE WEEK!

one of the really useful takeaways from fukuyama's political order books is a clear conceptual understanding of what corruption *is* in its fundamental nature. and the answer... is patronage networks organized on personal connections! corruption is *inherent* in these discretionary systems!

I have many complaints about the choices made by Omaha in the 20th century, but going whole hog and annexing *every other city in the county* they were legally able to means there are 4* left, 2 still too far to annex and one* historical quirk. *Boys Town doesn't count, lol

Local elected officials like IZ because it lets them kill new housing on behalf of their NIMBY homeowner constituents while posing as friends of the poor who stood up to the hated developers.

People think that IZ requirements force developers to take lower profit margins. In reality, developers have to deliver competitive returns to investors so IZ means nothing gets built until market rate rents are high enough to cover development costs *and* the necessary cross subsidy for BMR units.

Subsidized housing is a good thing and we should publicly fund it instead of relying on kludgy, counterproductive market mechanisms that trade broad middle class housing affordability for a handful of means-tested units.

While this system does pretty effectively maximize the percentage of new apartments that are set aside as below market housing for low income people in new buildings, it does so at TREMENDOUS cost to broad housing affordability. cayimby.org/blog/califor...

It’s notable that Elon Musk does so many weird things he largely gets a pass for running a super eugenic breeding program.

"Violate the governor" Rape is how he understands every sort of transaction he engages because this man is a rapist.

Boring Third Way types: "We need the McCain-Romney Republicans!" The McCain-Romney Republicans:

Is all this really feasible? Won't Trump refuse to sign anything like this? Won't he litigate it? Won't it lead to government shutdowns? Yes, yes, and yes. But it's still absolutely doable and necessary. Here's why: newrepublic.com/article/2171...

I think the fact that Marissa Mayer would voluntarily disclose this to a reporter is a pretty good demonstration of how deeply the culture of Silicon Valley has diverged from the rest of humanity

Lying is a sin.

I appreciate and support all lifters here's the rule you doing 315, a good member of society: dude that is incredible a shitbag, doing 315: oh you warming up?

I always forget just how gross smoke makes my hair feel until I shower and have clean hair again.

Feel however you personally want about him, no other president had a weird statue of themselves in a Barcelona pub.

Sounds like Husker fans and United fans might be long lost kin.

Innovative and prolific Nintendo game developer Shigeru Miyamoto will receive Japan’s highest honor for cultural merit next month. The 73-year old is the first video game developer to receive the Order of Culture, which is presented by the Emperor of Japan.

The Founders would have plainly understood numerous Trump scandals as outright treason. Honestly, pre-1980 the public would have just thought of a president who behaved like Trump as a traitor.

"It's not fair if you don't take me, a known liar, at my" Genuinely, my contempt for them is bottomless.

He's such a whiny little piss baby.

Former Republican presidential candidate. Ouch. @billmaher

FRODO: I will carry the ring to Mordor, though I know not the way. ARAGORN: Ayo, this motherfucker got hammered and used the One Ring as a party trick at the bar. ELROND: what GANDALF: lmao. My buddy's the barkeep. He told me all about it. ELDROND: what GANDALF: Anyway, give him the ring.

Freedom of movement is the most fundamental human right; everything else is built on top of it. The 20th century was a campaign to smother that freedom and we should not let it win

Sir

OH NO NOT AGAIN

On a given weekend, you can watch basically every college football game in the country if you want. And I’m not just talking about FBS and FCS.

if we're complaining about Mass Effect: it's fucked up that the guy who's in charge of all the Reapers is named Harbinger and the guy who's supposed to open the way for the other Reapers is named Sovereign

Technically 2 since I've met a few local congressional politicians, but personally that feels like cheating. My mother's cousin is an NYC pol who's connected enough to know Chelsea Clinton socially, which is my personal cheat code since that gets me to the UN and every world leader.

Illinois picking Iowa has to be the most embarrassing part of this map.
