When you’re managing a team in the Premier League, it’s important to emulate a Nathaniel Hawthorne villain. Nothing says “seriousness” like the tactical approach of an especially uptight puritan.

Both friends from Nepal and my sons are going to hear what life was like in the 90s through the filter of, idk, Home Alone and Mighty Ducks, but my sons are going to have the added difficulty of thinking their own life experience is a good baseline for understanding it.

As you’ll be able to tell, if you click through, the paper isn’t very related to what I’m working on in my dissertation, but it is something I was/am interested in, and I’m excited to present the paper.

Surprisingly, the prize is not awarded for clunkiest paper title.

I've always been a little mystified about the direction of the antipathy. Seems more likely, imo, that some of the currently ensconced white guys suck and got their positions unfairly, and I should replace *them.*

Congratulations to the Seahawks. I did this for you.

Oh, agreed! I don't think he'll be back, no matter what. I was reporting on my feelings about it. Like, I'm sad he's gone. I'm less sad than I thought I would be.

Really loved this, thanks for sharing! I'm excited to read the book. I've been interested in roughly this territory since reading Ismael's "How Physics Makes Us Free," and I'm intrigued to see an approach to the question based in neuroscience.

Thinking about it more, I'm more interested in the immune response than theorizing about what god/s hate/s. Feels like it could yield grounds for differentiating good and bad hate, but my intuition is that it's something like "judging x to have negative moral value," which seems all bad re:people.

I'm skeptical that it can be good to hate *people,* but there might be interesting work in philosophy of religion/Abrahamic theology trying to make sense of scriptural claims about what God hates? Maybe also parallels from social systems to functions in other systems? e.g. hate as immune response?

Yeah, since it wasn’t the same people opting out of putting football in a conference and *also* opting out of the bowl game, it’s just annoying, not problematic. And as irritating as it is that the ACC makes sense for everything but football…the new playoff guarantee seems to fix the problem.
