American cars are too complicated now. When will Detroit again make a car I could steal one piece at a time over several years?

I picked up the first book and wondered 30 pages from the end how he was going to wrap everything up (he didn't). I guess we all get to have that feeling forever
George R.R. Martin has said that if he never completes Game of Thrones sequel Winds of Winter (or the book after that), there's no plan for anyone else to step in. Instead, his Song of Ice and Fire series simply "won't be finished."

I mean it's Twain and then Chesterton right? I know it's cheating to just pick writers with a 100 mph zinger but they'd be magnificent in this form
Do you have a historical figure you most wish got to be a poster? I feel like you must have a better answer than mine, which is Churchill. The guy started autobiography when he was 19 I think. And just never stopped. True poster.

It's the end of days, an angel wearing a flat billed baseball cap that he does not remove in the presence of the Eucharist appears to me. He makes theologically incoherent accusations of mariolotry and miscegenation for some reason. Then he shoots me with a gold AR-15.
Every time this happens (and it happens kind of a lot) I think about how annoyed I'll be if it turns out the right religion is the one that's just mine but illiterate and dumb

Last week ICE was prowling around some schools in Columbus Ohio and they were foiled by not opening the doors, all the kids being released at once and immediately put on their bus, and the principal just going out and telling them they had to leave school property.

I usually regard the division of STEM and the humanities as artificial and something that blinds more than it illuminates but the job markets really are different and it's rough for them. Academia (not TT, but as much money as humanities TT) is literally my backup.

Why isn't there a cartoon fisher cat on the TV telling me when skin grafts are half off?
Scalise: "Everybody complains, 'Why when I watch TV do I see this Gecko lizard & emu & all these animals out there selling car insurance & homeowners insurance? Why aren't they selling healthcare?' That's bc federal laws prohibit people to have choices for lower cost products for health insurance"

The thing about the phrase "birthing person" is the only people I've heard use it are midwives and the idea that they of all people devaluing women is so preposterous you should pinch yourself if you think it.
Ana Kasparian claims the left turned on her over her opposition to being called a "birthing person".
Ana Kasparian: "I don't have kids, I don't want to have kids, and I don't want to be called a 'birthing person', I find it super insulting."
