God, a thousand times this. That's the thing with dopamine being tied to task initiation - there's a set of gears that won't - CAN'T - engage in my brain, but none of my problems are with analysis. I can be fully aware of all the necessary steps, and stressing about starting, and just... not.

We don't feel good that a task is done; we feel the absence of dread now that it's no longer hanging over our head. That's just the best we get - a temporary absence of stress or panic - and it just feels good by comparison. Relief, not joy or pride.

Wants a photo op with the Pope while simultaneously signing off on an administration policy that denies the Eucharist to Catholic immigrants held in custody.

Chat GPT killed an Aggie. Here. www.cnn.com/2025/11/06/u...

1.This is not the only known example we know of ChatGPT cheering on a vulnerable young person to die by suicide, this time it is a recent Texas A&M grad 2. Every single university that has invited OpenAI into our midst should be asked to account for their choices. www.cnn.com/2025/11/06/u...

Ok, this is excellent. Now I’m rooting for Elko even more.

If a professional did this they would be arrested and I don't really understand why the answer box gets a break

Immigration judges with prior immigrant defense work make up the largest share of those fired by the Trump admin. NPR identified 70 fired immigration judges. The changes have at least shifted perception of fairness in these courts My latest investigation: www.npr.org/2025/11/06/g...

Great and important reporting here. But the administration has been pretty clear about how these judges need to rule in order to keep their jobs. So I think we’re well beyond perception of fairness.

Here is to Friday and every other day really

The company says it’s heartbreaking, they promise improvements, new guardrails. Anything but shutting it down. Suicide is just a metric in their ongoing beta test. Sam Altman and everyone like him should be in fucking jail.

I know I keep RTing this but they said he was AD, took it back, and now have reaffirmed it again. And I cannot get over that a person who ignored a confession of DV against an LSU athlete is now in charge of the entire athletic department and all LSU athletes.

There are no words for how evil this is

"World's first potential trillionaire has killed 600,000 people, including 400,000 children" is the only headline that anyone should ever read about Elon Musk

I think we may be able to retire #chyronfail after this one

Oh also - lawyers aren’t allowed to tell jurors this so i do: “Jury nullification” is a fancy phrase that just means, “This jury decided not to convict and there’s nothing anyone can do about that.” If we think a law is unjust or unjustly enforced, we can just not convict. We don’t need a reason.

This is a really interesting conversation.

Change in Headline

Jesus I see what you've done for others

This sort of mentality wouldn't exist, and we wouldn't have to try and undo it through awkward application of injunctive relief, if people could just sue officers for damages.

Tear the whole fucking thing out and start over. Every one of them should be fired.

Time to crush the whole operation there is no going back

I reached out to a White House spokesperson for comment. They said “the pope doesn't know what he’s talking about.”

Mike finally heard about a thing that happened.

How Christian Nationalist school board members in Texas campaigned vs. how they did

NEW: Mississippi Democrats broke the Republican Party's supermajority in the state Senate tonight for the first time since 2011. It came as Democrats flipped 2 Senate seats and 1 House seat. “Mississippi just broke the supermajority—and the people have taken back their power,” the party says.

Maybe dumping poop on voters from an airplane is not a surefire electoral strategy

Really looking forward to the Speaker of the House claiming to be unaware of the election results.

stay tuned

I'll go ahead and say it. Texas book banners got their butts kicked in tonight's school board elections. Again.

The factional grifters will hate this, but the Mamdani-Spanberger-Sherrill axis actually suggests the outlines of a broad, emerging Dem coalition organized around both anti-Trump *and* affordability politics, not a party bitterly divided against itself.

[Exit Clown.]

I think a thing we'll learn tonight is that people fucking hate what is going on and they will straight ticket vote against anyone involved in starving people while pillaging the country and kidnapping their neighbors. I don't think it matters at all who that person is.

A trio of candidates are poised to break the conservate majority on Cy-Fair ISD School Board, according early voting results.

change nothing, put it in just like this

Just two machines built to kill other machines trying to eat each other.

The top four teams in the first CFP rankings this season: 1️⃣ Ohio State 2️⃣ Indiana 3️⃣ Texas A&M 4️⃣ Alabama

I am BEGGING sports media covering Ausberry as the new AD at LSU to include this in their coverage. If you don’t, you are bad at your job and should be embarrassed.

As we await the CFP rankings, here is our net adj. EPA/Play chart through Week 10, P4 Top 5 Ohio State: +0.42 Oregon: +0.34 USC: +0.31 Texas A&M: +0.24 Indiana: +0.23 t.co/q7T3Jh6plT

This isn't a closing election argument, it's Vidkun Quisling explaining why surrender is better than resistance.

This thing went on sale two years ago, and it's yet to have a day without sales. Pretty good. Thanks y'all

Hand to Bible, I thought this was Belichick and Jordon.

St. Peter at the Pearly Gates: Did you live by the Ten Commandments? Mike Johnson: I have no idea. I have not seen those
