Heard joke once: Man goes to doctor. Says “It hurts when I do this.” Doctor says “Treatment is simple. Don’t do this.” Man bursts into tears.

“But Doctor, I *am* do this.”

Good joke. Everybody laugh. Roll on snare drum. Curtains.

I'm like pretty pro Palestine for a lefty Zionist lib

her advocacy for Palestinians doesn't bother me nearly as much as she is so desperately doing all this as an actual act of transparent virtue signaling, to fill the absence she has in depth of character

also I get it the Palestinian side has seen the disproportionate majority of the bloodshed and suffering at this point but if you didn't shed the same tears for innocent Israeli civilians I think you at best have an agenda and at worst are an unrepentant antisemite but that's a whole can o worms

Reminder philosophers, if you have tenure, you can nominate someone for the Nobel Peace Prize!

According to the statutes of the Nobel Foundation, a nomination for the Nobel Peace Prize is considered valid if it is submitted by a person who falls within one of the following categories, a personal application for an award will not be considered:

1. Members of national assemblies and national governments (cabinet members/ministers) of sovereign states as well as current heads of state
2. Members of The International Court of Justice in The Hague and The Permanent Court of Arbitration in The Hague
3. Members of l’Institut de Droit International
4. Members of the International Board of the Women’s International League for Peace and Freedom
5. University professors, professors emeriti and associate professors of history, social sciences, law, *philosophy*, theology, and religion; university rectors and university directors (or their equivalents); directors of peace research institutes and foreign policy institutes
6. Persons who have been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize
7. Members of the main board of directors or its equivalent of organizations that have been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize
8. Current and former members of the Norwegian Nobel Committee (proposals by current members of the Committee to be submitted no later than at the first meeting of the Committee after 1 February)
9. Former advisers to the Norwegian Nobel Committee

Even though the entire "Nobel committee snubbed Trump" framing is extremely absurd, I did think it was worth sharing this graphic of the nomination and decision timeline, since, well, it makes it even clearer how absurd the discussion is:

How are the peace laureates selected?

An infographic indicating that nominations (letters from qualified nominators explaining why to award are due in by January 31st, the short list is assembled before April, review is conducted through August, the vote is held sometime before October, and the annoucement is made in Early October.

The Speaker of the House is telling the Fox News audience that a peaceful demonstration by Americans on the National Mall will actually be a gathering of organizations the administration has designated as violent terrorists.

Seems bad?

Mike Johnson: "We're so angry about it. I mean, I'm a very patient guy, but I've had it with these people. The theory we have right now -- they have a hate America rally that's scheduled for October 18 on the National Mall. It's the pro-Hamas wing and antifa people ... "

Donald Trump is not a king — and his administration is not above the law.

Today, the court confirmed what we all know: there is no credible evidence of a rebellion in the state of Illinois.

And no place for the National Guard in the streets of American cities like Chicago.

It continues to be the funniest thing about him that he presents his own quotes as “Me in the philosophers magazine” when that is just him deciding to make a blog post on his own blog

Me in @philosophersmag: "At their best, science and philosophy ... are able to strip away the messy accretions of ordinary thought and reveal the core structure of some socially relevant phenomenon." Politically biased philosophy is not philosophy at its best.

Yes it should be clarified that the problem often isn't the political bias per se. It's that it severely undermines the task a paper is supposed to pursue. Such papers often just leverage moralistic pressure on readers to...

Besides linking Tylenol in pregnant women to autism, RFK Jr. now says circumcision is part of the reason why kids are autistic.

"Children who are circumcised early have double the rate of autism, and it's highly likely because they're given Tylenol. None of this is positive..."

You’ve been on every major platform imaginable saying in one way or another that the democrats can function by cleaving random marginal groups because doing so would be electorally advantageous. This is the right’s fault, but it is also YOUR fault for trying to get in on their game, too, *******!
