Apropos of nothing, has enough time passed that we can all admit the Bad Bunny halftime show was pretty underwhelming, and that the mass fawning over it was one of the sillier instances of fandom politics bandwagoning in recent memory

@FeserEdward "Raping women and children to death is only sort of evil," is an interesting take. I mean it is the take of a sociopath, but it is interesting.

@runthinkwrite I have seen no indication that the Humanities have any desire to change. Student have been voting with their feet and staying away in droves. When many faculty are animated by a seething hatred for the Western world and even the very subjects they teach, I can understand why.

The University of Hertfordshire is set to end all its humanities courses, and close the Philosophy department. Unsurprisingly, I think this is a terrible move. Please consider signing this petition against the proposals: c.org/hNHWCLsLT5

@leahck55 Happy for Craig. That is a thankless job, even moreso if you are inherited from a previous regime.

The umpire working 3B in the Mets Tigers game should never work another @MLB game. That was inexcusable.

Alaska 9. North Dakota 10. California 11. Washington 12. New York 13. Vermont Looks like a lot of Democratic states to me.

The greatest political deceit of my lifetime is one that's been perpetrated for decades. It predates Trumpism. It's the notion that the Republican Party is more fiscally responsible to the people than the Democratic Party. It's never been true.

@tedlieu God forbid the Democrats don't get every decision their own way. Because everybody knows, TRUE democracy means the Democratic Party wins everything all the time. Fascism is when the Democratic Party sometimes loses.

"If someone fell asleep in 1896 and woke up today, they would say the only difference is now Black Americans have TV shows and wear nice suits" "They've swapped out Klan Hoods for Brooks Brothers suits" Horribly divisive rhetoric from Bakari Sellers on CNN tonight.

@MLBNow After 40 games they have only played 12 games against a team with a winning record, and they are lucky to be .500 in those games.

@esglaude @Realrclark25 I love it. When you stop gerrymandering to artificially create "black" districts it gets called "gerrymandering." Yeah, yeah, yeah. I know. It's different when your side does it.

@ingelramdecoucy Kristoff's defense is going to be something like, "But they have space lasers they use to control the weather!! Creating Lassie McRapey is nothing for them!"

The Kristof article was heinously poorly sourced, relying as it did on a series of “trust me, bro” claims from a rogues gallery of people with direct links to terrorist groups and every reason to lie. The entire editorial board that ran the piece is implicated in this, a simple retraction really doesn’t cover it
David Shuster@DavidShuster

Hearing from longtime friends @nytimes there are already discussions, including up the masthead, about retracting @NickKristof column. Issues with source credibility and lack of evidence. No indications the Kristof sourcing mistakes were deliberate. Still problematic:
