Educating the future? New Jerseyan in exile. I mostly talk about beer, foreign policy, and on very rare occasions, parenting and gender.

Remember to breathe and a change of pants.

I only have the one, but I remember one thing from that week.

Mostly. Just remember to fall back later this season

If this is Wednesday, this must be Cleveland.

Unless it's Thursday, and then we're in hell.

So, setting aside the argument that's banana pants nuts.

Let's go with the logic of the guy who hates the Senate not changing his SN.

"In other news, Marshawn Lynch just self-identified as 'Buffalo Beast-mode' in his new candy bar"

Nothing like putting someone in Ed Murrow's chair with less influence than the EIC of the second most popular Bills fan site

Technically no, a crime committed by a non-states party citizen against a state party citizen would be able to go to trial.

There's also no statute that requires only the ICC to host war crimes/crimes against humanity trials.

Mostly because I don't know if I deserve to be happy, but my kid deserves a dad who is whole.

And because you don't want to wreck something, you pause, find a good therapist and crack your heart open, to see if there is something that can be rebuilt out of the shards.

Maybe not something better, maybe not something perfect, but just something that isn't this.

So, you end up (or at least I end up) going, at damn near 44, who the fuck am I? Am I happy?

Does my kid make me happy (yes)? Does my relationship (not really)? Ok, now what?

Like we're trained to suppress and/or externalize from a young age.

Which leaves some of us at the cusp of 45 finding out that covert depression is exemplified by workaholism, and can only be solved by overt depression.

So, the book is "I don't want to talk about it," and it posits that male culture tends to downplay feelings.

Yes I certainly empathize with heterosexual male acculturation, which is really ….traumatic I posit in a lot of ways

I found, in my youth, that wanting to talk about my feelings, was frowned upon by both boys and girls.

How about a T-shirt you got for free from a bar in 2005, with a half-chewed swear word wondering where you find a replacement starter cable for the mower you got off the trash

The end of Foreign Language and Area Studies fellowships and National Resource Centers means the loss of critical language and area studies expertise across the United States. These are the actions of an administration that cannot imagine the future, presiding over a declining world power

Wait, didn't Michele Tafoya work only on Sundays for a decade?

Isn't that a breach of "honor the Sabbath" to a literalist?

Normal lawyers practicing everywhere are cringing at the consequences of making such a shitty move: bar complaints, allegations of lack civility, not to mention loss of respect. May these water carriers become forever unemployable when this regime eventually falls.
