I've seen lots of examples thrown out--all of them good--but none of you have grappled with Girl Talk. Mashups were a thing, a pretty big one, entirely confined to peak millennial formative years.

Courts of appeals, SCOTUS first among them, absolutely love finding facts outside of or contradicted by the record. They thrive on it. It's a big problem and I don't know the solution.

This is what happens when you elect a bunch of gender ideology extremists to the halls of power--the extra-legal shanking of a massive growth industry and engine for blue collar job creation because it's not "manly enough."

1. See a reasonable gap in traffic but an oncoming car shows no signs of letting me go on its own so I assert myself further in the cross-walk (I'm already part way in it). Car stops short. 2. Car passes my bike with 6 inches of clearance while there's a long backup in the oncoming traffic lane.

They should be handing out shingles vaccines on the fucking street corner, shingles sucks so much ass oh my god. It's a travesty that you have to be 50 to get it most of the time. I hope these FDA publication blockers get shingles.

A lot of people think this, is the thing. I used to think this, a little. And it's because that's the implicit framework behind how mainstream politicians have talked about college for my entire life.

WTF, NYer. "If we agree that college primarily serves a credentialling process that stamps select young people as worthy of work..." We do not. So much for the bastion of erudite journalism. This is sensationalism, damaging our most vital institution: education. www.newyorker.com/news/fault-l...

Baby Yoda is brilliant, as a character, for merchandise, for rebuilding goodwill in the brand and delighting a new generation of kids. Andor is better TV clearly, but Baby Yoda will have a much, much bigger lasting impact.

Maybe the 23rd most noteworthy thing about this but LMAO at the party of the "pronouns in bio" gestapo using "they/their/them" throughout referring to a singular entity.

Look guys do you want random gambling or do you want prediction markets actually to be valuable for identifying real signal? If it's the latter, you simply have to let the boys overseas place their little bets about the outcomes of military raids.

I generally try to avoid the "tech bros are ruining Seattle" meme but it's really hard when I have to ride into traffic because a double parked Tesla Model Y blocked the bike lane and then again on the next block because a double parked Microsoft charter bus blocked the bike lane.

SullCrom to V100, ridicule this TTT firm

Master negotiator here: set a deadline for your counterparty to put pressure on them. Then, when they don't meet it, do NOT enforce the deadline. Give them an extension for free. That way, they "owe" you and have to agree to give whatever you're asking for!

Despite the administration’s rhetoric and bogus legal theories, the supposed armed conflict with “narco-terrorists” appears to be entirely make believe. Murder is the general term for premeditated killing outside of armed conflict.

This is one of the funniest fucking things I have ever seen in my life

Logistics problems in the Persian Gulf? Read theory

We're never gonna beat the "Dems in disarray" allegations are we

The last recession was COVID which was extremely idiosyncratic and sudden, and the one before that was 2007. Everyone on Bluesky, the Website For 38 Year Olds, has spent their working lives during economic expansion. No one here knows what a recession indicator looks like.

He's right and that's why the pastor invites us to "share God's war" during services and we all reach across the pews to our neighbors and do the Predator muscle handshake and yell "WAR"

I bet sea otter milk tastes incredible

The 4 year old, within the last week, seems to have flipped a switch and become a Black Hole of calories. This is kid who used to eat a single noodle for dinner. He's current double fisting a croissant and a bacon + bread sandwich. For his second breakfast.

They're home!!!! Oh my god!

I'm gonna be mean for a second. Trump famously never reads. He's also mentally declined a lot. He probably did tell Iran we agreed to their terms. He just didn't understand what he was agreeing to. It's like a wills hypo about testementary capacity and undue influence.

Recklessly producing and then accepting a situation where a foreign power can restrict freedom of navigation is not just a strategic defeat, it is a reversal of the most fundamental foreign policy and national security priority of the United States since the founding of the republic.

GO BLUE

Everyone that engaged in "lit bro" discourse, making the same tired joke about Infinite Jest and "the worst guy in your MFA" owes me and every literate man an apology given where we are today with AI slop, manosphere podcasts, and government by fascist memelords. At least I can fucking read.

seems like an attempt by the White House to impose price regulations on college athlete wages along with a bunch of other things that were struck down as collusion when the NCAA did it? I'm shocked, shocked that the Trump administration would intervene in competitive markets like this!

Called off work and ended up with the best day of the whole season at the ski hill today. A (heavy) pow sunny spring day really does hit different. Huge W.

If you want to understand what I mean by Conservative Affirmative Action in the legal profession, read the career section of this guy's Wikipedia page. It's the purest distillation of the form I've ever seen.

I bought a house only because there was so little available to rent that met our needs. I do not want to own this house. I would rather rent it and put what we paid down in ETFs!

Here’s the transcript. Sauer is just… lying.

I wish someone had called him on it at the time, but I’m doing it now.

Too easy. He literally goes on to say that WKA follows the common law and the common law has no domicile requirement.

Here’s the part that Sauer highlighted, to make it look like contemporaries understood Wong Kim Ark to contain a domicile requirement. Note the “however“ at the beginning of the next sentence…

Just so everyone knows, the Solicitor General straight up lied about the 1921 law review article he kept talking about. quick thread:

Master negotiator here: you should always tell the other side that you are extremely desperate to make a deal by a specific deadline because your pants are on fire and you need them to bail you out. They will empathize with you and give you a bargain.

Nimbys be like, physical structures are more important than anything else going on in our community. And we absolutely cannot under any circumstances create them.

Idiotic stereotyping and faux populism aside, it's political malpractice for Dems to be doing anything but messages of unity: us, the people, versus the decadent, sicko Trump and his cowardly enables. He is a bajillion points under water. Literally the majority of people agree with you.

Yet another satisfying bathroom visit to the glorious, modern, beautiful, clean, and woke gender neutral bathrooms in SeaTac

I wish Bungie would make a distinct solo only endgame area in Marathon alongside Cryo Archive. Ideally something unique not just a nerfed Cryo. Otherwise solo goes from "different play style and difficult to progress" to "lol you don't even get to progress."

I'm still laughing at this. I was giggling hysterically at it last night in bed and tried my best to explain to SO why it was funny. Its so, so funny. "Cock a doodle do or die."

If we're gonna be crudely comparing fundamental individual right to random and ultimately arbitrary common law rules, what about adverse possession. Parents get citizenship if they're here for a few years regardless of whether they entered legally.

Another day another veiled threat of vehicular homicide leveled at me and my toddler while biking near the playground

All I can do is lol. Lmao even. Rofl.

to the ~~edgelord~~ assassin who just ganked me while I was fighting bots in the building we're both trying to enter: what have you achieved? They're still there and it's going to be harder for your now. You can't loot my largely empty corpse without exposing yourself. Congrats on the k/d i guess?

Idk man Germany pretty asymmetrically knocked out Poland, Denmark, Norway, Greece, Yugoslavia, Netherland, Belgium, and France from 1939-1941. Time to take a big swing of coffee and read about what happened after that.
