I am going to change soccer by bringing about a "three-point revolution"-style sea change in how offense is played: They should take more shots from outside the penalty area. This is so blindingly obvious, but the Europeans are too hidebound. They need an American to show them.

The ultimate luxury a writer has now is the ability to disappear. Guys like Ben Lerner and Chad Harbach really figured it out. Atticus Lish. Emma Cline, too. No commentary on social media or begging. Nothing. They just put out a book or a piece and disappear again. Maybe show up in a photoshoot for a magazine. That’s how you know you’ve really made it. Good for them.

Seen some anti-CFA posts recently. Y’all are crazy this is the only national fast food worth eating in America. Decided to give strips another try, they’re fine, but nuggets def better than strips here. Regular sandwich still the top pick.

“It should go without saying, though maybe it needs to be said, that it would be meaningless to have free-speech organizations if they defended only speech they agreed with.” theatlantic.com/books/2026/07/…

The internet doesn't bring out the worst in people. It makes the worst people more visible. Across all 30 countries studied, those who are nasty in online political discussions are nasty in real life, too. They seek status through hostility. Don't feed the hand that bites you.

This is genuinely the single most terrible scene from this World Cup. I have never seen such arrogance from a player before in my life 💔

Elon Musk’s cuts to U.S.A.I.D. led to some 700,000 deaths, according to Atul Gawande, a former leading administrator at the agency. Gawande, backed by recent academic studies, believes that the death toll will likely reach seven figures. The policy is not only immeasurably cruel, he argues; it is also stupid, badly undermining what remains of American soft power and prestige. Gawande explains the human cost of DOGE’s war on U.S.A.I.D.: newyorkermag.visitlink.me/H5AQWr

Something I told 14 yo: People are going to stop reading books. I wish this wasn't so, but I fear it is. The silver lining in this cloud is that if you're one of the few people who still read, you'll have a huge advantage over everyone else.

The White House was never supposed to be a palace. George Washington and architect James Hoban deliberately rejected the lavish style of European monarchies. Instead, they designed a President’s House that reflected the ideals of a republic: dignified, restrained, and accountable to the people. The White House belongs to the American people. Every president is just a temporary tenant.

derek thompsons recent article inspired me to read more about alcohol im shocked by the est impact vs current narrative for instance, 7-14 drinks per wk reduces life expectancy by only 6 mos (!!) moreover, the negative effect is possibly offset by gains from deeper friendships
