@nxthompson He takes exactly the wrong conclusion from that premise

This is an amazing quote from Lindsey Graham about when he realized how politics works. theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/07/…

@Steve_Sailer sorry this just isn’t true lmao declan rice is one of the three or four best midfielders in the world and he runs constantly. it’s very position dependent.
English
The better you are at soccer, the less you run. Messi is the smartest, so he mostly strolls and stands.
I don't recall that being true of comparable North American sports like ice hockey and basketball. Were Gretzky and Jordan famous for moving as little as possible?

@xGPhilosophy have fun trying to defend haaland yourself mate literally no one can do it

@JamaicanJihadi They aren’t actually ass most of their guys play for top European clubs but they still aren’t great 😂

This has me in tears because Belgium are ass
Pat McAfee@PatMcAfeeShow
Is Belgium the greatest soccer team of all time? These guys are monsters

I think it's wonderful that Mikel Merino spent his prime in Spain playing midfield and not quite having elite skills and then he went to England and they were like you are big and tall and jump high you will play striker

@RatMaccc @DomTechnostate fair enough. the original Q was about high-comp office jobs, not just post-bachelor’s first jobs… obviously most 22 year old fresh college grads don’t make 100K+.
Still, you can get a JD/biglaw job by age 24 or 25.. my point is it’s no huge secret where many high comp jobs are
English
@natcionalism @DomTechnostate I am literally an engineer from a top engineering school in the country and work for a Fortune 500 company and no entry level position starts at that. And a JD isn’t the same as a basic finance bachelors. I’d hardly call having a JD “entry level”.
English
Is there like a secret second Indeed where you guys are finding all these office jobs that pay a fuck ton of money
English
@RatMaccc @DomTechnostate finance majors from harvard or JDs from stanford can absolutely get six figures starting out. e.g. in biglaw the standard starting salary for a first year attorney is $235K plus bonus.
plenty of engineers from top schools also make six figures straight out.
English
@natcionalism @DomTechnostate That’s how you get average salary… not a fucking finance bro making 6 figures out of college. I’m an engineer and we don’t even get that starting out.. someone’s lying.

I turned 18 in 2011. Rent was $425. After work I’d go to the mall with friends and get a whole new outfit for $40. We’d go out that night, drinks were $3 and whole meals were like $7. Wake up next morning & get brunch WITH DRINKS for less than $15. Life is hell now.

Neville: “I’m fuming with Gabriel for the goal”
Like, why? why are you angry at Gabriel? Such a weird discourse around Arsenal players.
It’s a good goal by Haaland, it’s good movement and he does Gabriel. It’s not that deep.
Why would a random english bloke be angry lol

Sorry, I hate stuff like this. Ketanji Brown Jackson isn't supposed to be "the people's champion." She's not a politician. She's supposed to *interpret* the law, not make it. This kind of thing is why so many people misunderstand how our government works at a basic level.

Gabriel once again getting schooled by Haaland.
Couldn't happen to a nicer bloke.

@KelseyTuoc I think most women who have paused or would pause to consider the question are not conservative to begin with, which makes it tough
English
If I were a conservative woman I think it would really give me pause that so many conservative men so openly despise women and believe they are not morally or intellectually the equals of men and should not be considered on their merits for positions of power.
Matt Walsh@MattWalshBlog
The worst Supreme Court Justices of all time have all been women. That’s just a fact. Republican presidents should take the hint.

If a woman gives birth at the Supreme Court, is her baby entitled to automatic status as a justice?

The stutter penalty has had its day. Keepers aren't moving when they know you're taking one. All you're doing is generally robbing yourself of power and angle.
