Listen. I didn’t get into grad school the first time I applied because they said they liked to reserve spots for international students. You know what I realized? My essay wasn’t very good and I should probably have a clearer idea of what I actually wanted to study.

Which they probably don’t care about, but even if they did.

They’re all-in. They cannot pivot. And the puppet/eers have to play along. Vance can’t disavow anything Miller says because they both need Trump.

I’m going to go to journalism school just to do this.

“Say When” is one of those songs I have to play 15 times in a row when it comes up on shuffle.

It is really hard not to clap even when asking “is this such a good idea…?”

So the question: did you participate?

More importantly: so what?

Here’s how I did it (opposite of how I’d do it on paper):

70x70 = 4,900 (so the answer is less than this)

60x60 = 3,600
60x7 = 420
60x7 = 420
7x7 = 49

Add em up! 4,489

I don’t mind that the thing Spotify is most known for is now ubiquitous and uninteresting

This is a HUGE part of how I’m learning to support my son: that his brain is entering a survival state, and helping him get to a safe state is more important than him putting on his coat or getting somewhere on time.

I’m sure it is, as much as it is *not* part of the thinking to say, “hmm, if I actually am the best, wouldn’t I have the best? Or do I not have the best because I’m actually not all that great?”

That rarely enters the equation, I think.

“By right…” is such a WEIRD phrase for the purely merit-based crowd to use.
