GOD. DAMN. This Louisiana man fucking COOKED like I’ve seen very few people cook before.

I don’t think any of y’all actually hate to be the bearer of bad news, lol.

So, yeah, this thread is the Tuck Rule argument revisited. It's not that the users need bright lines, it's that the MODS need relatively bright lines, for their workload. The referee had to make a call on their skills of observation "was the ball moving forward?" and plainly, it was.

We do not concede the south, the birthplace & continued lifeblood of the Black American experience, to people who hate us. We do not throw in the towel. Black people have every right to be southerners & very much are no matter who likes it.

this is aaron swartz' opinion of lesswrong, by the way! from his lesswrong account, no less

Our entire culture has forgotten how to design careers in a systemic, lifecycle way. Yeah, some of that is capitalists optimizing for /their/ part of the cycle, to the cost of everyone else, but it's not just confined to those realms. It's just everything. Farming, politicians, skilled trades…

The real theme of the modern age is "Nobody Wants This". AI, ICE in airports, ICE in general, the Iran War, data centers sending actual cities wiht people into blackouts -- "nobody" wants this. And yet here we are.

I'm not sure what the dividing line is, but when I think about my time as a kid, it's very GenX-y, the experiences of millennials are foreign to me. But as an adult, the affinity seems more millennial. I /think/ this points to Eternal September being the dividing line. I had just turned 19

Trans rights are human rights and if one of is ain’t free then none of us are.

When you have an audience or a business you have to ensure that you always provide a lot more value to people than you extract from them. If you don't then, long term, it all breaks down. Young people I talk to today...they feel like the whole entire world has broken this contract with them.

knuck if you Hellebuyck

Behind the fascism is an often genuine belief that replacing any support structure with a zero-sum backstabbing game will make the best people rise to the top. It’s demented.

You ever read a sentence that expresses your view of the world better than you ever could? And know your life is never quite going to be the same, because now you can EXPLAIN yourself?

Most people understand that you can't motivate a child to do better by reminding them of every single bad thing they've ever done and telling them they've been stupid and worthless their whole lives Why do so many people use that same approach with the nation and expect different results?

Champagne Supernova. It frankly makes me think less of Oasis as a concept. Just hate hate hate HATE that song.

Thank God there were people filming. This administration would have said Alex Pretti pulled a handgun, a package of fentanyl, and a signed copy of the Communist Manifesto if they could.

All you fascists are bound to lose

The opposite of fascism isn't resistance; it's connection. Find your tribe or tribes and connect with them. Love them. Throw your whole heart into them. Don't fall into the trap that you just need to be against something. Be for something.

Why does the media sane wash a deranged lunatic whose brain is leaking out of his ears as he speaks like a mafia boss, threatening allies? Cue the meme

Show this to a "common-sense" conservative who's been worried about girls' safety and they'll be confused. It looks like a weird miss. Show it to someone familiar with trans genocide and they'll understand it instantly. One model is wrong, the other is right, and the extrema prove it.

semi-regular reminder that ICE was only created in 2003 when you are asked to imagine a world without ICE, you're basically being asked to remember where you were when Lilo & Stitch came out

With Miami making it this far just imagine how dominant the ACC Champion would have been.

I just want everyone to step back and realize how often it's a trans woman getting bullied off social media.

Be the H.L. Mencken you want to see in the world.

Complete NFC & AFC playoff scenarios going into Week 18.

Because baseball bluesky NEEDS to see this

/anti/ murder? Unsubscribed.

Caniacs just going to fantasize about Bussi and how long it could go before having to pull out.

everyone gets so mad at the mods here for doing basic mod shit. sometimes you gotta make a little murder joke and eat a three day ban for it. that’s life baby, there’s beauty in that.

Why is the "we must be united!" hectoring directed at people who are mad at the Cavers and not to the Cavers? Everyone who's mad was united, then the Cave Caucus walked across the aisle and betrayed what the public had been told was the Dem position.

People on here will post anything. 'Baseball games have 9 innings.' No they don’t. That isn’t true.

NO, YOU CANNOT WELCOME ME BACK TO RALEIGH-DURHAM

/5 Ezra Kleinism would have me seek mutual values and agreement with the people who brought us to that, and who still support it. I would rather see them burn in Hell.

how do you not have a single person on your bench under 60 in a swing state with an aging GOP incumbent. how have you let the party apparatus languish like that

Donald- So I just admit that I was wrong and I get to go into heaven? Jesus- Yes my child. I paid the price for your sins when I died on the cross Donald- But I have to admit I was wrong? Jesus- Yes my child. Donald- I like messiahs who weren't crucified.

“This ain’t Philly!!!! This is a hospital for Christ’s sake!!!” INCREDIBLE. #ThePitt

“I just want a Nazi boyfriend I can take to Au Bon Pain” is shorter and more honest than a bunch of the columns out right now

Conservatives are so eager to ban porn despite being huge gooners themselves because the porn they wanna watch is already illegal

*Looks at own username* somehow, I keep getting surprised by seeing mentions of Canticle in the wild.

If your cycling infrastructure isn’t good enough for them, it isn’t good enough.

a major issue with video games is that they produce a bunch of people who consider themselves brain geniuses for solving problems that were designed to be solvable. as a remedy, we should be making more games that are actively and irreconcilably hostile to the player. thank you

that is because when centrist Dems say "working class" they mean "white dickheads at all income and class levels who drive pickup trucks and are huge racists"
