This run by Christina black is the best story in curling since Simmons in 2015. Finish this game and get two more wins and it will be far better. Do it for Colleen

I did not expect Liam Hemsworth to be a good Geralt, but he surpassed my low expectations. He clearly doesn’t care as much as Cavill and the writers haven’t gotten any better, but Liam did a solid job. I would toss a coin to this Witcher

A crazy part of the social internet is that you don’t know if a deranged post is coming from a passionate teenager sorting through their feelings or the infinite torment machine.

What’s worse than being chronically ill is thinking the illness is about to end and finding out you’re wrong.

Humans are equally smart as 70 000 years ago, outside of mild improvements from nutrition. We are standing on the shoulders of giants. I.E. the myriad tinkerers and thinkers stretching back past antiquity

The new CFL rules seem like someone thought that the worst part of the game is that it’s not American football. The CFL should be getting weirder, not conforming

I think the more common opposition to courage is apathy rather than cowardice. Doing the right thing first requires doing something at all.

We are at a point where political journalists need to be able to define “4chan edgelord” to have a chance at doing their job

Things will get better, no matter what is drawing you towards nihilism. Change is inevitable and, even though human history runs in cycles, the net movement is towards a better world

It’s crazy that the world made the right bet on EVs thinking that battery tech and charging infrastructure would improve quickly enough to meet the moment, but, with hindsight, it was probably better to hope for one big quantum leap in synthetic fuel production.

One of the hard things about vaccine communication is that it is true that a child today in Canada is more likely to be injured by the polio vaccine than by polio, but that’s because polio has been nearly eradicated by widespread vaccination efforts.

I think there are two rules to parenting: make sure your kids know that you’re love for them is unconditional and unwavering, and don’t give your teenagers any more reasons to hate you.

I’m reading about the GFC at the moment and the 2007 economy seems like a dead ringer for today’s if you swap “derivatives” for “AI.” I don’t know if all of the ETFs in everyone’s retirement portfolios will provide enough winds in the sails to prevent a collapse, but I will know soon.

For the last ~50 years, great science has been reserved and careful; proving worthiness of nuclear physics. I think the rise of anti-intellectualism is going to lead to great science being bold again. We have the tech to get rid of malaria and are choosing not to. Of course trust is low.

I have cousins who are fervent antivaxxers and aunts still dealing with post-polio syndrome seven decades after contracting the disease. It’s less of an issue of critical thinking skills and more of an issue of how unpleasant it is to challenge your deep beliefs

I worry that the impact from the erosion of science funding will be underappreciated because the problems will be small to start but compound over time by things not happening when they could have

In 1997’s “the fourth turning,” the authors put forward five potential crises for the next 30 years, which predicted 9/11, the GFC, the pandemic, the ruso-Ukrainian war, and a secession crisis from a state withholding federal funds. In other news, California is preparing to withhold federal funds.

Most national public health services around the world just deferred to the CDC in many cases, which is no longer a viable option. The upside is the CDC’s utter fear of moving too quickly is less pervasive and it is good to see so many new leaders emerging.

Pre-agricultural humans were smarter than you, but, as a species, we are smarter because we can communicate and help each other as experts in our own aspect of life.
