Back in the day when I had dreams of being a pro wrestler, enrolled in a school and everything, my entrance music for the character I envisioned for myself would have been My Hero.
Without saying Best Of You, fav Foo Fighters Song?
I cannot stress enough that I have only ever wanted to be a good guy in a bad world if you ever wonder what truly “radicalized” me.
I only want to be a man my son can be proud to call Dad cause I didn’t have that growing up.

How do these people never get their ass beat?
1. The woman who was fired by Cinnabon for repeatedly using the N-word against Somali customers has had over $70k raised for her so far.
The woman, who was arrested in the past for child endangerment, claims the customers verbally harassed her first.

Actual question, for medical professionals:
If you need to be hooked up for regular IVs, why not in your arm? Or some place that, except for your face and neck, is the most unavoidably visible part of your body?
Not snarky; just wondering why it couldn't be in arm, leg, abdo, etc.

Wildest shit that ever happened to me on here was when I was watching CAN’T HARDLY WAIT and posted the below skeet as a joke, only to be informed that the picture actor (Charlie Korsmo) did, indeed, go on to become a Federalist Society-affiliated right-wing legal scholar

There's an episode in Blackadder 3 where Edmond uses made-up words to convince Samual Johnson that he's missed stuff from his dictionary. I have been using these same words in work meetings and reports for decades without ever being challenged on their authenticity.

My dad abhors any negative comments about immigrants. Asked him recently why he’s so strong on it: ‘Because we’re always happy to take the rich and clever ones. Which means it’s not about disliking immigrants. It’s about disliking the poor and vulnerable. And that’s a bad human instinct.’

I am fully committed to this theory
For example, bones need resistance to maintain density. They demineralize quickly once resistance stops — a problem in zero gravity space. When people stop exercising, their hips start to break.
Humans aren't made for zero resistance. Guys who can buy *anything* are doing this to their BRAINS.

If the Court arbitrarily strikes down this key part of the fourteenth amendment, I think Americans lose any moral obligation to show any allegiance to the laws enforced by a fundamentally lawless regime
Birthright citizenship is probably not integral to liberal democracy, but it is integral to *American* liberal democracy. Our vision of what we are as a country, as a nation beyond an ethnicity, requires it.

This is horrific and exactly what those of us in Black studies, gender studies, women’s studies have been warning our colleagues in the sciences about. Their seeming neutrality will not save them.
Heartbreaking. The University of Nebraska will terminate its entire Earth science department.
One of the country's most successful and respected geology & climate programs: gone.
When ideologues & politicians are threatened by the very act of studying climate change, I wonder: who of us is next?

It's over.
Despite the fact that the academic council recommended against it, despite the fact that the program brought in more tuition than it cost, and despite the fact that Nebraskans need & deserve this expertise, Earth & Atmospheric Sciences will be cut.
