my doctor today:

you’re going to make a full recovery, but it is crucial that you get as much rest as you possibly can for at least the next two days. after what your body’s been through, you can’t exert any more energy than you absolutely need to

Great writing and non-algorithmic recommendations of new music are worth paying for!

If you aren't already a supporter of DRtI, surely the contrast between their essential and informed work and that dumbfuck Johnny Cash piece in the WSJ should push you in the right direction.

As ever, Natalie and Marissa are among the very best of the very best.

Want to learn more about trans Texans? We surveyed 90 of them to learn how they're dealing with an increasingly-hostile political climate. Almost everyone said they're feeling more anxious and less safe in public. @dallasnews.com www.dallasnews.com/news/politic...

We surveyed 90 trans Texans. Most said they’re living in fear and weighing a move

Respondents said anti-trans policies have complicated their sense of home in Texas and pushed them to consider leaving the state.

i know we say it a lot but it bears repeating that college coaches want every ounce of blood sweat and tears they can squeeze out of the students they coach but will turn around and abandon them on the spot when the vibes get bad. as a class of people they are truly despicable, below contempt

Belichick's communication with his staff in the past two weeks has been described as "weird" and "distant" by multiple members of UNC's coaching staff. Multiple coaches were unable to get hold of him during UNC's bye week
