it is interesting for how much we value "consent", be it in government or labor or personal dealings, we have yet to come up with a way to give "consent" to be born. sort of impossible but this is the foundation of life is a lack of consent.

DOCTOR: I told him he needed to get out to a show, that was how he would cure his depression.

CHOTINER: So you learned this technique in school?

DR: No, not— listen it was good advice. Pagliacci was in town.

C: Right. Is it standard to give advice before learning a patient’s name?

DR: Now look

An NFL team can lose. (Trust me, I'm a Jets fan.)
But NFL owners are essentially guaranteed success — no matter how bad their team is, no matter how blatantly they disregard their fans, no matter how odious they are personally.

The Permanent Overclass - The American Prospect
The NFL’s billionaire owners literally can’t lose when it comes to making money. On the field? That’s another matter.

The post-Soviet expression for this is "everything they told us about Communism was a lie, but everything they told us about capitalism turned out to be true."

Once you see it you can't unsee it, the theory of change for these people is as follows

1. Cripple a nation's economy via collective punishment. 2. (Hopefully) induce protests about the economy as a result. 3 Take these protests as a casus belli to topple the regime. 4. Cripple it more if 2 fails.
It's worth talking about how these people, nominally Democrats, repeatedly reaffirm that the point of the sanctions ie collective punishment which in turn will hopefully induce internal regime change. It's outright stated here that even if Iran did zero enrichment sanctions should not be lifted.

The year is 2028. A liberal elder millennial has taken control of the government. Everyone rolls their eyes at the new "department of good government oversight" (doggo). Until the purges begin

'measles outbreak at the child prison' seems entirely avoidable, it's really the kind of thing that only happens if you do several unthinkably evil things on purpose all at once

Billie Eilish during her #GRAMMYs speech for Song of the Year:

“As grateful as I feel, I don’t need to say anything except that, no one is illegal on stolen land. It’s really hard to know what to say and what to do right now, I feel hopeful in this room and we need to keep protesting… fuck ICE.”

The details surrounding Kwesi Adofo-Mensah's firing was puzzling. I break down what I've read, what I've heard, what his track record is and why I think there's more at play than him simply being bad at drafting

The Kwesi Konundrum: Why Did It Play Out Like This?
The Minnesota Vikings, bafflingly, let go of their general manager in late January. It may have made sense to let him go at season's end, but the timing and reporting is puzzling. We break it down.

I kicked off Black History Month in Corona at the home of Louis Armstrong, who lived in our city for more than 30 years. Walking through his house and hearing how much New York meant to him was a powerful reminder of what this city owes to Black artists and culture.
