the weirdest and funniest kind of self-funder by far is the kind who, while still an attention-seeking narcissist, mostly just wants to actually do the unglamorous public servant's job they've purchased for themselves
The Delaney’s are stingy with their money. Trone said fuck that and used his own money to open a third district office when he was in congress. He will spend whatever it takes to beat her.

Brett we are Jews do you remember what the Christians did to us

Europe must “persuade younger Europeans that their heritage, culture and way of life — a fundamentally Christian civilization leavened and improved but not erased by the values of the Enlightenment — are worth defending,” our columnist Bret Stephens writes.

i love delis and diners but it's hard to square them in economic models that don't benefit from a very specific american postwar framework where meat and local cost of living for labor is all very cheap. roman emperors had fewer menu options than what some long island greek diners offer
It's so weird that we traded delis for coffee shops entirely because no one knew how much a fancy coffee cost and so they could just charge whatever for it.

I buy this stuff with, like, literary classics to some degree, but no, you do not in fact need to know poetry to be a well-rounded and educated human being

just riffing on this, in 1944 my grandad's friend Paddy, who would go on to become a very distinguished writer, kidnapped a German general in occupied Crete and took him up into the mountains with a resistance team, from where he was sent on to the UK by submarine. Now, up in the mountains ...
there is not any particularly strong evidence that study of the humanities make people good people. the elites of many brutal empires were extremely well-read!

Whole lot of people here on both sides not getting the lib arts- fine arts distinction
If you are providing me with an education that is low utility in the world then it’s a disservice. My composition class spent four weeks on poetry. I’m sorry, but that only would’ve been useful if I wanted to be a poet. I don’t need to know iambic pentameter in order to be a victim advocate.

I'm gonna be honest, I always think this kind of "literature actually teaches you essential skills to be a diving instructor" stuff is a real stretch. Poetic composition is a thing in itself; I do not think it is a particularly good way to learn empathy or communication.
Except, this person lacks to understand the value of poetry and how it might relate to the their desired vocation of being a victim advocate. Poetry teaches empathy, communication, inference, and deciphering the abstract. All of which are integral soft skills necessary for being a victim advocate

I feel like it's really obvious and in fact has been discussed ad nauseam that one of the main drivers of Gen Z's dalliance with the right, such that it exists at all, is that conservatism was *not* perceived as the dominant ideology being pushed by power structures
Happening now: Texas leaders announcing a rollout of a statewide program to put TPUSA chapters in high schools and colleges across the state. Gov. Abbott adds that schools that stand in the way should be reported to the Texas Education Agency.

right, people then resort to this horseshit once they find out that something they believe isn't true: well, i have a completely different objection. the problem with AI is what it does! why are you telling me obvious lies and then peevishly backing down once i find out you're lying!
I’m only learning this through your post but my initial thought about the comparison to agriculture consumption of water is that type of consumption results in food whereas data centers amount to slop.

In our lovely state it’s actually gotten better in a way, up until the late 90s every bar on or around West State Street would have the State House number so that if a legislator got too drunk before a vote, a staffer could be sent to collect them and sober them up in time.
