@BoardGeniuses Aggies are the only SEC team to not even play for a National Championship in Football, Baseball or Basketball since WW2.

The 10 Most Tortured Fanbases in College Football

@oenophil15 @mattyglesias Yes, the 90+ crowd is know. For their hyper-online policing of modern film.
English
@mattyglesias Even today, there are over 7 million people in the US and UK that were alive in 1940. So a fair number of people could have "fact checked" his choice for WW2; there aren't as many alive today that were alive for the battle for Troy.

For "Dunkirk," Christopher Nolan had his costume department make fabric from scratch to match the period-appropriate texture of WW2 uniforms.
If he gives characters historically inauthentic armor, he is making choices not being lazy.

@F1 @LewisHamilton The step back said it all too much for him to take in in that moment.

When @LewisHamilton equalled Ayrton Senna's tally of 65 pole positions, he was bestowed with one of his hero's helmets

@C_Frank21 @R_Brauninger And then they lost two of their best three players.
English
@R_Brauninger Misleading in my opinion. They weren’t picked 13th because a shortage of talent, more so the result of not making the postseason last season with one of the more talented rosters in college baseball
English
Reminder: Texas A&M was picked to finish 13th in the preseason SEC poll.
There’s a REAL argument to be made that Michael Earley should be the Coach of the Year.
English
@JustDave603 @R_Brauninger You almost got a passing grade on spelling their names, but I am sure your opinion is valuable.
English
@R_Brauninger Ah yes a coach that has Grahoevic, Sorrel, and Hacipian should be coach of the year for beating up on the shit teams in conference 🤣🤣🤣
English
@VividProwess @USMC_Razorback The people he threw out sure seemed to line up nicely.

@ronval912 @TheStalwart I am sorry. You did not say you could not read this article that was brought up in the search. linkedin.com/pulse/why-high…

@c_kennaugh @MrRBourne Money is fungible. You don’t get to declare what the borrowing is for. You are simply outspending your tax receipts.
English
@MrRBourne There's a world of difference between borrowing to finance tax cuts and borrowing to invest in the future (eg a programme to insulate old houses and buildings) which may even pay for itself in time. Or at least there should be in a rational world.
English
There's an easy way to stop being "dominated" by the bond market: borrow less.
Novara Media@novaramedia
"If the British government is going to be completely dominated by the bond market, MPs might as well go home." Diane Abbott told Cathy Newman on Sky News that whoever replaces Keir Starmer as prime minister must go through a "properly organised selection process", regardless of any "hissy fit" made by the bond markets. When this provoked laughter from Newman and eye rolling from former Conservative cabinet minister Gillian Keegan, @HackneyAbbott argued that there's no point in having a parliament if the financial sector always has the final word.

@cafreiman Medieval peasants worked fewer hours than modern people do.
English
I suspect this is meant to be a criticism of life under capitalism, but it’s worth remembering that people have to earn a living in the state of nature. Plus, capitalism dramatically reduces the amount of hours people need to work to earn a living.
hunter@3gpmh
how grotesque is the expression “earn a living”
English
@sunnylohmann @jlippincott None of that is required to build a data center.
English
@jlippincott Hey dork, this requires seizing land, taxpayer subsidies, and taking all the resources away from the people not on an open market, but by decree. So get out of here with your “but it’s a private company” Libertarian nonsense.
English
"Excuse me, sir. Excuse me. You did NOT get permission to invent a new technology. This is Not Okay."
Emerald Robinson ✝️@EmeraldRobinson
Nobody in America voted for data centers. Nobody in America voted for AI. Nobody in America voted for surveillance capitalism. The entire fabric of our society is being changed without the will of the people. Without a vote.

@thebeautifulage @mattyglesias More like pointing out how ridiculous something is with humor.
English
@kharrell91 @mattyglesias So he was lying about lying. Perfect cover

@thebeautifulage @mattyglesias Do you honestly not get that was said ironically?
English
@ob1156 @ByPatForde Or, the powers in control should have put a system in place in the years leading up to this. Players deserve to get paid. That does not have to burn it all down.
English
@ByPatForde The people who spent years demanding we pay and treat the players like pros now can’t bemoan cash grabs to the new reality the agitated for

Column: A college sports industry with no restraint, no shame and no appreciation for its consumers expanded the NCAA Tournament to 76, with an eye on CFP expansion to 24. Almost nobody wants either, but that isn't stopping the alleged leaders. bit.ly/4cY70t6

@SSN_TexasState @ByPatForde @eisner_ryan I really wish Trump had not taught morons that all caps added strength to their argument.

When yall decided to turn d1 college athletics into semi professional sports this was inevitable
Whoever wanted fake pay to play nil and whoever wanted the transfer portal SHOULD SHUT UP AND ACCEPT WHAT COMES WITH REPLACING COLLEGE ATHLETICS WITH SEMI PRO SPORTS

@smo841603557184 @aarmlovi Sure, but you can’t move to a location if you cannot get an address there. It is a tautology.

The worldshaking anti-YIMBY datapoint is...a claim that the number of people who move to your metro has a direct and extremely tight relationship with the number of houses permitted in that metro
Hal Singer@HalSinger
Figure IX shows that San Francisco's and Houston’s home quantity growth are almost exactly what one would expect given growth in population. “The key point is that with multiple margins of housing demand, unit supply curves may look very different depending on the composition of demand and **irrespective** of a city’s regulatory environment.”
English
@cdwilsher @mattyglesias The whole point of calling it fixed is to imply it does not keep up with inflation
English
@mattyglesias Yglesias renews his war against old people.
Social Security is fixed in that it only keeps up with inflation. If it didn't keep up with inflation, it would be diminishing, not fixed.
English
@USTradeRep Strategic foresight at work. That 25% tariff since 1964 didn’t just protect — it helped forge America’s pickup supremacy and global edge. Smart policy shaping enduring strength. 🇺🇸
English
Since 1964, the United States has applied a 25% tariff on pickups, enabling U.S. automakers to perfect their model while boosting their global competitiveness.

@wb_thorne @PerBylund The fact that he acknowledges that he is heterodox does not mean he is not a kook.
English
@kharrell91 @PerBylund see, I know you didn't even read the article, because the author already includes this extremely well-known information! He is not trying to deceive readers that his view aligns with other economists.
English
This is generally applicable. I get a lot of people demanding that I refute every detail in some random kook's home-made "economics" theory. That these "theories" are completely bonkers is apparently no reason to dismiss them. They "deserve" my time. 🙄
Phil Magness@PhilWMagness
"Why don't you write a line by line refutation of the Unlearning Economics guy's blog in support of rent control?" is the econ equivalent of asking an astronomer: "Why don't you refute this random youtube video proving the world is suspended on the back of a giant turtle?"
