REMINDER: if you think your right-on lefty/socialist/communist/etc. politics justifies pirating books, well guess what? Most writers don't make a living wage from their books or writing work, and stealing from them makes you a class traitor.

this dumb shit is what i mean when i say this is a purely aesthetic “politics.” yeah man, why can’t we have a fusion of cosmopolitan social democracy and revanchist hierarchies of wealth and privilege? tough question.
Matt Stoller: “..Trump & Mamdani defeated establishment in their own way, representing hunger of voters on the right & left who want something different. If those sides cd come together.. that would be a sea change in how we organize our political economy”.

fun sidebar, federal minimum wage hasn't increased in SIXTEEN YEARS, they're literally just hyperventilating about shit like Seattle, specifically, raising its *municipal* minimum wage

anyway there is a better way, but it's called UBI and the ec*nomist hates that even more
This is a deeply sexist take, given that ~2/3 of minimum wage workers in the US are women.

I'm reiterating once again to stop making media into your identity and stop interpreting analysis - not even critique, ANALYSIS - of that media as a personal attack. Stop that now. Stop it. Don't bring it to me, just stop it

Kevin Sorbo was in his 30s and in peak physical condition (he was currently playing Hercules), and he had three strokes after he had his neck cracked by his chiropractor.
AARRGH. CHIROPRACTIC IS NOT MEDICINE, IT’S DANGEROUS BULLSHIT CREATED BY A FUCKING GROCER WHO THOUGHT HE COULD HEAL WITH MAGNETS. WHAT THE FUCK, AMERICA
Oh good, they left Chiropractors as professionals but not Nurses, NPs, PA’s or physical therapists

That’s infuriating

It’s widely known (and, I think, pretty uncontroversial) that learning requires effort — specifically, if you don’t have to work at getting the knowledge, it won’t stick.

Even if an LLM could be trusted to give you correct information 100% of the time, it would be an inferior method of learning it.
Relying on ChatGPT to teach you about a topic leaves you with shallower knowledge than Googling and reading about it, according to new research that compared what more than 10,000 people knew after using one method or the other.

genuinely fascinating to watch the goalkeeper who could sit in a lawn chair and sip a glass of spritzer most matches win GKOTY while the backline that completely shielded her from hard chances gets shut out on DOTY.

Dickey finished with the best shot stopping numbers in the NWSL despite playing behind a defense that finished TENTH in Post-Shot xG faced.

The Reign gave up an average of 1.42 PSxG a game. Kansas City gave up 0.74 PSxG per game. Literally almost half as much.

#NWSL award summary:
-Temwa is MVP, of course
-No defenders from the best D by far win DOTY
-Vlatko, who coached the greatest regular season in history, doesn't win Coach of the Year #KCBaby
-A forward wins at midfielder
-Lorena wins GK, but Dickey was the best statistically

🤷‍♂️
