cant stop laughing that TRR sold the jacquemus turtleneck i bought for $20 on grailed for $92
They would because I can feel it from behind the false sincerity anyway!
UCB takes the cake here (not that it’ a contest!).
My personal never forget moment was leaving a lecture in which a prof was fondly recalling the 60s free speech movement then checking my phone to see the occupy protesters across the street had been hit with tear gas canisters by UCPD
Ok but one of them I’ve been thinking about is pointedly using ”sincerely.” Like oooh, an unfriendly/aggressively cordial closing. I’m shaking in my boots!
I could make a list of rhetorical tools incredibly dumb people use to try to show their hostility in writing but I have better things to do
you’re just renting expensive mall clothes !!! no one is going to remember that shit

“The problem has not just been bad history by law professors; it’s been bad history (and demands for bad history) by Supreme Court justices.”
what next? what, are we gonna provide *roads* for the wealthy too? gonna have health inspectors keep contaminants out of their groceries? are we just gonna have gutters and sewer systems around rich people's homes?
The Times could have written a story that said, "These Woman-Hating Lunatics Have the Ear of Powerful People. You Should Know What They Believe So You Can Resist Them."
That's...not what this story does.
This is truly the most inexcusable part of this inexcusable article.
We've tried giving men absolute & arbitrary power over women! It wasn't that long ago! There's an abundant historical record & huge scholarly literature enumerating how abusive & deadly it was! We do not need to relitigate this!
Opposition to birthright citizenship is going to be table stakes for anyone who wants Trump to nominate them to the federal bench
It seems we just bombed some residential buildings in an attempt to kill a former diplomat who was trying to facilitate negotiations.
A civilian trying to *end* hostilities, surrounded by other civilians in their homes.
We are completely lost.
the way we need to free these states from the yoke of idiotcracy
president baby went too long without his ipad time
Was talking to a guy who started scuba diving in the 1970s and still dives regularly. I asked him what were some of the biggest changes he has seen. I expected something about dive computers & other new tech. His reply: There is so much less life now 🙁

Democrats, progressive influencers, and journalists should leave X collectively and encourage their followers to do the same.
The thing people get wrong here: we have more power than X does. If every progressive left X, it would be much worse for X than it would be for progressives.
that being said someone needs to write about gen z/millennial commodification/fetishization of theory
i’m so sick of the substack philosopher/critic influencer type that values moderation and restraint over action, imperfect but real action! the fight right now is too important for navel gazey reviews of theory written in stylish font
I'm sorry to be the bearer of bad news. The shipper... (takes off glasses, pinches bridge of nose) The shipper chose DHL. (unable to look you in the eye) We don't know when your package will arrive. We may never know.
Feel like a lot of people get this mixed up. Esp among the dance music people empowering evil institutions like Boiler Room and booking shitty misogynists
"There’s a 3,000-person shortage of air traffic controllers in the U.S., but it’s still too early to say whether that shortage played a role in Sunday’s fatal collision between an Air Canada jet and a fire truck on one of the world’s busiest runways, air safety experts say."
Id like to place a bet.
For all the shit I hate about what the internet has done to us, one thing I am grateful for is the intellectual mystique of academia being vaporized because these guys are allowed to post on social media lmao
