@vulture "lie back," not "lay back"

Hulu picked a terrible moment to break the news that it was canceling the ‘Buffy’ reboot. But the decision to cancel the high-stakes show in the first place seems like it was pretty straightforward. vulture.com/article/hulu-b…

I wrote for @BookPostUSA about Penguin's Poets in Translation series, which I love, beginning with the worst Homer translation, that of William Morris ("Tell me, O Muse, of the Shifty") books.substack.com/p/diary-michae…

@aliner lol this thread is so embarrassing

This is the sort of thing that I’d eat up if I liked business or strategic operations. But I like books and theory and raspberry mousse and there is not enough time to like my trinity enough and so I cannot finish reading this thread ever.

@Permanentkritik “how much mas” was right there

Will be interesting to see how much more Habermas is thrown under the bus now that he’s dead

@my19thcentury if only clover were here

I saw the best minds of my generation become midlife Dead Heads--and it makes me so happy every single time

@DavidWCobb *nerve-racking

@NCAABuzzerBters why did you capitalize “fan” and “chair”

After the conclusion of UTEP vs Jacksonville State the handshake line was interupted as a Fan picked up a Chair and began to berrate the refs and Jacksonville State's staff

@melvincounciljr Great speech. Rock chalk

@ChasenScott @shre98 fly is an irregular verb; the past tense is “flew”; come on

@ChasenScott @shre98 “sparks flied“????

What is there to make of #KUbball's loss at Arizona State? Here are four takeaways from @shre98 on an ugly effort that lacked, among other things, composure and fundamentals: kansascity.com/sports/college…

@DawgatAuburn @Sam_Vecenie his draft stock is being negatively affected by his inconsistent availability, as several media sources have noted, & anyone with eyes can see he has been dealing with some kind of injury all season

@Sam_Vecenie The evidence seems to support a theory that he is trying to play enough to maintain his draft position while not risking injury. That’s not conspiracy pilled, that’s just reacting to what I’m seeing.

Yes, imagine being so conspiracy pilled that you’re like “yeah Darryn Peterson is out there purposely holding back the level he’s capable of and is faking it.” If he wanted to do that, he could just shut it down. Dude clearly wants to play.
