That’s also my name on Twitter. I have a blog about the Cardinals (stlbullpen.com) and thoughts about a bunch of other things.
Calibri was a DEI hire?!?!
Marco Rubio ordered diplomats to return to using Times New Roman font in official communications, calling his predecessor's decision to adopt Calibri a “wasteful” diversity move

I started watching it yesterday because I saw a lot of commentary about it and figured it would make good background noise and was pretty amazed to learn that it is legitimately good

I’m not stupid, I understand that Cash Cab a generation ago and Track Star today are vetting contestants, but imagine they didn’t. Imagine straight up every person in New York is that much smarter than almost everybody you know.

One theory I have is that competence, self-control, responsibility, and expertise have all been feminized, leaving “masculinity” with the realm of impulsivity and petulance. So the divide is not really between “femininity” and “masculinity” so much as between adulthood and childishness.
Everything else aside, the idea that this is a model for many men of *masculinity* is so wild. This? This is "manly"? This is how people think it's cool to act?

Biden was pretty unpopular by the end primarily because he kept telling people the economy was doing well and he wasn’t anywhere close to this level

The media successfully convinced itself all the humorless scolds were on the left, and while we certainly have our share of them, oh, baby, is it not even CLOSE to how many there are on the right.

Alabama drew an easy SEC schedule to a point where their second best win was either at home against Vandy or at Mizzou. The SEC is the best conference in America but not all SEC schedules are built equally.
