Realization from being back on Long Island for Thanksgiving -- we are lying to ourselves about the bagels in Los Angeles. They are nowhere close to the level.

1. I am curious to see what sort of terms were negotiated on this Sixers arena pivot, because they had a lot more leverage once Center City one got approved by council

2. The Sixers remaining in Philly is good

3. [redacted Comcast thoughts]

Re the Sixers staying in South Philly: there’s a big development plan for hotels and restaurants and such that was never going to go forward if the Sixers left the stadium-ballpark-arena area. So the other pro owners and leagues were willing to get involved to change Sixers’ mind.
It worked!

i just want to double down on this. d’onofrio’s “egger” performance is unreal. like, you immediately accept with no hesitation that this man you are watching is a giant alien cockroach in a human suit, and it’s all done with make-up and physical acting. a top ten hollywood physical performance.
also vincent d’onofrio was robbed of his best supporting actor nomination and win

a non trivial number of the founders were themselves involve in elaborate land speculating schemes that were little better than fraud
I find it profoundly funny that people are pretending that "Elaborate schemes of fraud involving fake securities attached to a non-existent asset" were invented in 2021 and that the Founding Fathers of America wouldn't instantly grasp them with "Oh, it be like the South Sea Company scheme!"

i think INTERSTELLAR is a bona fide masterpiece — maybe nolan's greatest film — and i'm not at all ashamed to say that i weep every time i watch it.
Interstellar’s Most Enduring Quality Is What People Used to Hate About It
Christopher Nolan’s sci-fi spectacle is fascinating precisely because of what so many pegged as its fatal flaw in 2014: its unabashed emotionality.

Sometimes the combination of arrogance and ignorance is breathtaking. Yes, US health care has high admin costs; that's because it relies so much on private insurers. Govt-run health insurance has much lower overhead

The final House results have now landed as 220-215 for the GOP. That means the House majority came down to the 3 NC seats the GOP flipped thanks to its brand new gerrymander.

And that gerrymander hinged on NC's supreme court flipping in 2022.

These losers do this because their only shot at companionship is a hostage situation, so they spend all day harassing people into thinking a woman’s self worth should resemble their own.

If they tried being kind and not approaching every relationship as a transaction, they would be much happier
