I know political commentators are notoriously Like This, but this is on the Jordan Peterson level of obtuseness. "What do you mean by grammar, what do you mean by good, what do you mean by deployed."
The reason you don't want to be on this level is because a slime mold has been consuming his brain

Unbelievably, this was posted only 4 hours ago. Absolutely surreal seeing this in 2026, like seeing a comment written in high Germanic or archaic Sanskrit

The truly wonderful thing about the Into The Spine year wrap-up is a diversity of talented voices animating a cacophony of perspectives. Every year it's a bunch of remarkable people saying shit I never would have thought of in a beautiful way, and I'm so lucky to have been part of it

In the induction ward with my partner currently(we are not leaving the hospital without a baby, how cool is that) but a guy keeps shouting at his partner, who is in labour, on the other side of the room and like. I'm not a violent person, but
