Real talk - I worry that winning will paper over the Seahawks’ bigger problems and slow them down from doing deeper interrogating and work necessary to build long-term sustainable offense, let alone what they need in order to win in the playoffs. [Substack post that I’m linking on Twitter]

fiancée and I are watching Mamma Mia (you can probably guess why) but I’m following along with the Seahawks game enough to be glad everyone’s having fun

so was Pierce Brosnan in this like with O Brother Where Art Thou when they cast George Clooney just assuming he could sing and stuck with it because he was too handsome to fire

to be clear, very fun movie. it’s fine if you just let a bunch of charismatic actors goof around covering one of history’s greatest pop bands, there doesn’t need to be more going on

starting to wonder if a key tool for warding off an ascendant right-wing movement might be runoff elections where the tone is approximately “deadass?” like, if you have one of those in December 2016, Trump probably never becomes president (hell, that’s how Ossoff got elected to the Senate)

this is how you get a genie to put you on Mr. Bones’ Wild Ride

was at a thing where there was a tree where children put up their wishes and one was "I wish to play rollercoaster Tycoon forever" like I'm so glad it's still a game children love 🥺

ELIZABETH HOLMES: It’s, it’s funny to think of Saddam Hussein opening a restaurant NATHAN FIELDER: OK but do you understand the comparison Barack Obama is making here HOLMES: I don’t know. I like the Cheesecake Factory

every so often you see a post like this arguing that Clinton was to the left of Harris and I would probably actually enjoy a long-form comparison addressing that

marking it as a 2 because I went to college with gorilla grodd

To flip some discourse script for a bit: what’s y’all’s Obama number (ie degrees of separation with the former president)? Mine is 3
