I've been thinking for a while about this one book, and how I want to understand how the author *did it* which has led to me looking for a used copy that I can literally, physically take apart and analyze. Is this writing?

It’s remarkable, the people you’ll hear from. Teach for even a little while at an expensive institution—the term they tend to prefer is “elite”—and odds are that eventually someone who was a studen…

I love when "news" involves reporting on anonymous internet accounts, so then you get sentences like "a user with the handle Ignix The Salamander".

Big Tech is plotting a $100M lobbying and campaign spending blitz to block AI regulation at the state and federal level.
We must stop this takeover before it's too late.

Shaheen: "We've heard from a number of our colleagues on the other side of the aisle that they're willing to come to the table, they're willing to work with us once the govt is open to get this done.

we don’t believe you guys aren’t sitting in a room and picking who gets to be the villain each time based on how hard it will be to hold you accountable lol get rid of schumer coward
Standing up to a tyrant - who is willing to impose pain as leverage to compel loyalty or acquiescence - is hard. You can convince yourself that yielding stops the pain and brings you back to "normal".
But there is no "normal". Submission emboldens the tyrant. The threat grows.

Fun fact for Wolverhampton fans: last time the won, I was there. I am the missing piece. If you ever want to win again, you should pay for me to fly to the next match.

this is why i hate when the league acts like it has to #girlboss to gain credibility. fam, look at what we just witnessed. there's nothing like this league, and that's all because of the players. it is my dream that one day they have leadership that understands this, and acts like it.

Every time I see I new group of women's sports fans upset by their team's name, I get this "tired, weathered old man" vibe as I remember when I thought I was going to have to root for something called "BOS Nation FC"
