What is this “meep meep”? A horrible thing. They say it’s encryption, a word I invented, “encryption,” which is something so terrible you can’t believe. A bird that runs. So dangerous and very bad. Birds fly. They fly. No run, no run. And he runs on air to trick you, which nobody ever saw before.

I wrote about the pervasive societal impulse to extend the benefit of the doubt to those who've proved themselves unworthy of any, and the importance of establishing a human framing in the fight against fascism before you can even begin the fight, much less win it.

If you stay in their frame, you'll always be in their picture. On the fine art of not handing it to them.

If they could just delay the new civil war/ polypandemic/ total societal collapse at LEAST until after the NCAA tournament, that would be great.

That 5-miss possession around the 3 minute and change mark looked bleak, but in the end, it was sort of like getting the last of the snake bite poison out. #LetsGoVCU

Those Sam Elliott/Gronk USAA commercials feel like some kind of uncomfortable combo of elder abuse and exploitation of the mentally disabled.

How is it that I love cats, but loathe libertarians?

ESPN listed St Joes as a more than 30 point favorite over Coppin State... I don't pay all that much attention to betting lines, but that seems a bit extreme, no?

In this postmodern era of cmbb, it's really all about the numbers... quads and metrics... nobody except the winners remembers who won the various bowl-game-like MTEs. Let's get back on track and try to stack Ws. #LetsGoVCU

Dang.

You would rather win big than have close games, BUT close games teach you lessons that blowouts never will. Rams hadn't had any of those lessons in their first 4 games. Learned the hard way tonight.

Sports punditry is mostly just the innumerate public exploration of correlation as causation.
