I don't know anything about this class or the professor who teaches it - maybe it's good, maybe it isn't. But either way, I am deeply uncomfortable with national Jewish advocacy organizations going after individual classes at universities because they dislike the content. This will not end well.

🏆 The only drivers in Formula 1 history to stand on the podium for Ferrari, McLaren & Williams … • Alain Prost • Carlos Sainz End of list.

I always thought Plato was pretty pollyannaish on this point, but this is decent evidence for the view that a man of bad character will therefore be unhappy even with every external trapping of success and good fortune.

Thank you @dailypopsi.bsky.social for this art of one of my favourite Final Fantasy girls, Faris!! Really wanted to get some more art of her sprite design out there. :> vgen.co/DailyPopsi

Basically if you crossed Beerus with Mega Alakazam

As has been pointed out, more than one Albania.

Note: in history, there is more than one Galicia and more than one Iberia.

This place is never beating the allegations.

Already long since lost the light for the day but attached Rex Kaiser’s new arms and they are indeed massive. He’s still not as big as Dino Emperor but if you get the other 5 bots to do the full combination he probably is. Which I am not doing, definitely not going to do. Not a chance.

But Christ is young and the tyrant is old. Christ will outlive the tyrant, and his kingdom will have no end. Why would you bow before this cruel man? Even if you believe in power, he will be at an end in three years. Don't fall for the cult of herod.

Was thinking about the gospel for Sunday during the eucharist this morning. Not lacking for material, but the artistry of putting it together is the hard part. Herod has allied himself with the devil and the spirit of antichrist by seeing Christ as a usurper. He has empty religious affectations

Like if you really think not logging into a website is the epitome of morality, like you filled in your good person quota for the day you need to take a long hard look at yourself. Like yes you should encourage ppl to leave twt & if they listen great. No that doesn't make you better than anyone.

I don't know who needs to read this. Twtter is horrible and more people should definitely find alternatives but whenever we think we are better than other people no matter how righteous... The moment we find ourselves going "I'm totally good & moral and superior" that's exactly when we are not.

Didn't know Squidward was team principal for Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1 Team

Americans online show a level of contempt towards European societies they never would for East Asian ones, even though many of the issues they make fun of 'Europe' for apply at least as much there.

squidward, is that you?

I would argue that the "Kennedy curse" is, on some level, a divine or karmic punishment of the family for Joe's destruction of his daughter Rosemary

Bioshock. The best game about beating libertarians with a pipe wrench.

Then: Command and Conquer 3 (remember me and my HS friends talking about the Scrin) Now: Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn (really solid entry in the series, arguably the last "old-school" title)

The Spurs own the Thunder, going 3-0 over the last two weeks against the team that looked unbeatable. OKC might have met their match. @joinoffside.bsky.social

I maintain that the ideal version of this is that we put all of those guys in the wicker man and genAI goes back to being a chatbotless 30 billion dollar industry with algorithmic applications. if someone generates nonconsensual images or video of another person they [TOS violation]

I'm begging for feminists to add an ounce of goblin mode to their politics.

De'Aaron Fox and the Spurs win their 8th straight game and 3rd straight vs. the Thunder on Christmas! Stephon Castle: 19 PTS, 4 REB, 7 AST Victor Wembanyama: 19 PTS, 11 REB, 2 3PM Shai Gilgeous-Alexander: 22 PTS, 6 REB, 4 AST Isaiah Hartenstein: 13 PTS, 12 REB, 3 AST

Funnily enough this is the same ethos Souls-like fans have *ducks*

it's funny twitter users are apparently like "I can't use bluesky it's wholesome chungus website" and while I do have my own criticisms of this place, I prefer that much more than the nonstop bigotry, harassment, and disconcern for creatives on that platform.

This is what we in the trade call "3am Le Mans commentary", and it's probably a bad sign if your non-24 hour sport has it

Big reason I’ve become quite cynical about populist anti-corporate sentiment is that so often it forms into this faux-materialism where landed gentry and peasant workers are presumed to be a single class of people because they spend time around cows

Every time you tell me "6 7" you make me feel like I'm sixty-seven

My advice for having a nice bluesky experience: - follow *and boost* anybody who posts weird/interesting stuff. If your paths diverge you can mute them - interact with people in good faith and you'll often be met with the same (and gain followers) - post the kinds of things you want to see more of!

The funny thing is that this is true on the Super Sentai side as well (which also doesn't deem it necessary to have unifying lore between series, in fairness)

Deciding that the ethical Consequentialist thing to do is to apply Virtue Ethics, therefore making major progress towards a Grand Unified Theory of Ethics.

Honestly, I've been waiting for two weeks for OKC to come in and put the belt to the Spurs and it just hasn't happened.

The Oklahoma City Thunder literally started 24-1 and are now only 2.5 games ahead of the San Antonio Spurs for the #1 seed in the Western Conference. #NBAsky

Pope Leo on Christmas Eve: “On earth, there is no room for God if there is no room for the human person. To refuse one is to refuse the other.”

December 25: A really great day to remind people who try and tell you otherwise that actually, Mithras didn’t even have a birthday—he was born from a rock 🪨—and Christmas really doesn’t have anything to do with Mithraism. Mythbusting: the gift that keeps giving historical truth.
