I just watched a video where a professor called Confucius “a man who never had a real job” and I wish I could convey the warmth and affection in his voice
I have thought about this quite a bit since I read it, which feels much longer than two days ago.
a big part of what's happening right now is that there's no way to actually game out what fears and risks are rational and which ones aren't and what the fallout could be, and if you are a person who pays attention and reads the news, this is going to drive you mad. ask me how i know.

I still think the Luka trade is a financial being sold as a basketball decision, but even in that circumstance I probably wouldn’t go with their current version of “our GM has never watched a basketball game”

Its not that voters thought tariffs were good exactly - most Americans (according to polls) do not know what a tariff is.

It was just a word being thrown around in the 'who will make economy good' debate. Given the relentlessly negative media coverage of dems, they went with Trump.

Do you know why a president would do all the most evil and heinous shit via Executive Order? Because his party can't easily make it law. And if they can't make it law, they can't make it last.

Don't let anyone make you feel like this is The End. Do not let them demoralize you. Live to see them die.

No single action can change the world? Nah, that's bullshit. Every action changes something about the world. You and the world change each other every day. If nothing else, there are people who need to know right now that their allies will speak out, whether the oppressors ever admit wrong or not

People love to talk about how underrated things are. That actor is underrated, that band is underrated, that team was underrated. A person can just like something without asserting their superior taste and ahead-of-its-time sensibility

Every second comment on NBA Reddit is “what this post fails to mention is per 36 minutes is a more efficient metric…” and every tenth comment is “this post fails to mention that there is no pure reality and all perception is a lie.”
On one hand: I love that on here and Reddit all the NBA discussions are full of context and nuance!

On the other: I swear to god if one more of these nerds tries to talk to me about Bayesian priors I’m going to lose my mind.

“Sure our studios are publicly traded companies that refuse to say how people use our product. But don’t look at that— look at these 8 press releases about minimum room size! What if the three shows that didn’t want writer minimums had to have them?! OH NO WHAT IF 12 PEOPLE GOT JOBS OFF THAT?!?”
I am WGA so I’m not really qualified to talk about whatever SAG’s demands may or may not be, but I am qualified to talk about how the AMPTP publicly lied about our demands every single chance they got.

@hollyanderson.bsky.social Just wanted to say thank you for “practical Coco possession battle”, which I will now repeat thoughtfully during every game I watch for the rest of the year
