i suspect that uniqlo is leaning into vanity sizing real hard and it's annoying that I had to return all this shit but you know what? taking at least 4 inches off my waist is boosting my damn ego in this garbage ass time

"There are ways other than essay writing to teach students how to develop an argument. Will I discuss any of them in this article? No. But surely they must exist."

i don't watchmany sporting events these days. i used to watch MMA in thebrief years post-Butterbean and pre-fascism. but there's something to learn from everything! I'll watch a game if people are watching it and try to learn, because I like seeing people have fun. love a good chant, too!
