One of the most striking indictments of US news media made in the Kristof piece, unintentionally, is that we are given an incredible example of how the word of Israelis is taken without any shred of evidence while Palestinians must provide every detail imaginable of the violence inflicted against them, and even then their suffering is treated, at best, as secondary if even acknowledged. Also worth noting that Screams without Words was an official investigation by the New York Times and this report is in the opinion section.

To say this is a seismic moment for the Wizards’ franchise, which has been utterly bereft for generations, is beyond understatement. Whether it’s Dybantsa or Peterson: At last, for the first time since Peak Wall, Washington will have a must-see player to build around.

THANK YOU JOHN.

Get this. I was at a pizza place in NYC and walks in Splinter the guy who taught turtles to fight. He asked if I listen to ace of base. I said I've got an album. He asked to borrow it. I said no.

Larry David is my next guest on Hiking with Kevin. Is what I would be saying if this wasn’t our text exchange. Me: “Larry, do you want to go for a hike?” Larry: “no.”

this is kind of an amazing parable about scientific materialism. it speaks for itself but i'm going to autistically overanalyze it anyway, for fun - the question pretends to ask about what a person would do in a social situation but it is actually asking for the "right answer," and the "right answer" involves looking at the situation "objectively," which means completely ignoring the relational texture of the little brother being upset in favor of an abstract argument (which the teacher's comments leave implicit) that he "shouldn't" be upset because the situation is "actually" "objectively" fair even if he doesn't feel that way this is a very specific way of looking at the situation which school trains you to think of as universally correct, not even a choice that you're making, just the way things "really are." the kid's answer ignores all of this to interpret the question literally as written, maintain focus on the relational texture, and see the situation as a relational rupture they can repair through kindness. instead of teaching the little brother to prioritize abstract concepts over their feelings he teaches the little brother not only that kindness is real and that his family has his back but also that, since the older sibling finds it easy to give up their cornbread, perhaps the cornbread doesn't matter that much anyway

@RapperBigPooh I think he’s trying to play both sides a little - he has zero leverage except for pressure he can apply. It’s also pre-lottery, things could change if we are in the top 3. I think he’s exhausting the possibility of a contender dealing for him before he fully buys in & accepts us

is this AD posturing because the Wiz not talking extension or because he really wants to only “compete for championships?”

I’ll admit, when I was a kid in the 90s I definitely thought that Kid Rock would have less direct involvement with military operations

one of the deepest, possibly most insidious, challenges that people often bring into therapy or psychiatric treatment is shame here is my pro tip, developed over a decade of experience the one quality that reliably, clearly, and, almost always unlocks shame, is playfulness

@SupernovaLox such a banger

I leave work. There are two chasids in the elevator, a father and a son. ¹ Out of the corner of my eye I see the father give his son a nudge... Excuse me, are you Jewish? ² Nah. ³ I put my headphones on and continued listening to Geese to see what all the hoopla's about! ⁴

Isn’t it obvious?

Reminded of one of the all time great tweets.
