I just find fashy mysticism so tiresome. Intellectually bankrupt but not really on the line for that, if only because it's all so handwavey and stupid that no one could ever take it that seriously to begin with. It's all just a bit pathetic.
like, take a look at this IM-1776 article on annexing Greenland: they view it as their duty to seize Greenland and make it theirs

In economics, editors, referees, and authors often behave as if a published paper should reflect some kind of authoritative consensus.

As a result, valuable debate happens in secret, and the resulting paper is an opaque compromise with anonymous co-authors called referees.

Hundred for Kohli. Partially inspired by his 19th professional reverse sweep from 3645 balls faced against spin in my database.

Hey girl, are you Marnus Labuschagne’s innings at Perth? Because you’ve been lingering about for ages and have no boundaries

One day there's going to be an almighty mix up and Netanyahu only gets a 2 match ban and fined 50% of his match fee whilst Virat Kohli goes to jail for war crimes.
Dear google algorithm,
By now, you should know when I type country name + ICC, it means I am looking for records of the International Criminal Court and not what the International Cricket Council has to say. 🤦‍♀️
Sincerely,

Using the word 'tweet' here is a little like using the word 'mankad'. Some people will get upset and give you cumbersome alternatives they'd rather you use, but c'mon... It's short, simple and everybody knows what you mean by it. I think I'm sticking with it.
