Cynicism is just another form of gullibility. Being a Padres fan is one of my stupider traits.

Destroying NATO to acquire Greenland when Denmark, formerly close ally, would have worked with us in just about every way possible to increase our defenses there in voluntary arrangements is an absurdity beyond absurdities.

In case anyone has not noticed, the president is a psychopath.

Mike Tomlin should've won like 8 COTY awards. He's the best I've ever seen. He did more with less than anyone in the history of the game. If he couldn't beat you with his offense or his defense, he'd still make the game fucking miserable for you anyway.

After the Chargers moved and became dead to me, I struggled to get into the NFL at all. Eventually I adopted the Steelers as my team, primarily because of Mike Tomlin. I admired how the team committed to him, and to me he represented the team and the league so well - his teams were tough, smart...

The message from the White House this morning is that, once again, it falls on ordinary American citizens to remain calm and professional when dealing with the heavily armed agents of the government because they are very emotional and might fly off into a murderous rage at the slightest insult.

Best TikTok thing going is the two dudes trying food from every country without leaving NYC. If you haven’t seen them yet, it’s incredible. My favorite so far is last week’s. Legit got me emotional.

This is not hard. Artists are not responsible for ensuring the Kennedy Center remains relevant and successful. The center’s board is responsible for that, in a fiduciary way. All of this energy being directed at artists should be re-directed at the board.

I don't ever want to hear about "meaningless" bowl games. It's a game, and your team is in it. If you're just judging by whether there's a title at stake, then 99% of games are meaningless, and also you're probably some kind of nihilist.

Bowl games are awesome.

This is sinister. If you're wondering why so many people don't report sexual assault, this is why.
jesus the Palm Beach Police really sought arrest warrants against underage Epstein victims for coming forward and cooperating, and (purported) admitting to crimes, and it caused the victims to become uncooperative with the federal investigation

Most responsible people have real concerns about AI, but pretending it doesn't exist should hardly be the mission of an institute of higher learning, particularly one geared towards engineers.

The knowledge gap is creating a great deal of fearmongering. Teaching responsible use should be the goal.
Signaling their bold new commitment to AI, Purdue is changing its mascot from the Boilermakers to the Bullshitters.
It’s been fun while it lasted: “Purdue University will begin requiring that all of its undergraduate students demonstrate basic competency in artificial intelligence starting with freshmen who enter the university in 2026.”

Kommissar is pleased to announce generous allocation of two pencils per child. Thank the kommisar for his bounty!
Trump: "You can give up certain products. You could give up pencils. Because under the China policy, every child can get 37 pencils. They only need 1 or 2. They don't need that many. You always need steel. You don't need 37 dolls for your daughter. 2 or 3 is nice. So we're doing things right."

The most striking thing here to me is the use of the Trump v US (immunity) decision to justify expanded presidential power in a completely different realm.

That decision will go down in infamy. It has destroyed the legitimacy of the Court and threatens the foundation of Constitutional government.

"President Donald Trump’s lawyer argued on Monday for far-reaching power that would go well beyond his ability to fire officials at the Federal Trade Commission and other independent agencies," Joan Biskupic writes.
