The fact that this mantra comes from someone who would've been dragged off to the camps himself never ceases to amaze me.

Institutions receiving the most federal aid and loans. Would be interested to see what their gainful employment numbers are...#highered
Kind of puts a damper on everyone calling him a nepo-baby
I am broken-hearted at the terrible news that my alma mater, @hampshirecollege.bsky.social, after 56 yrs, is closing. Its death is a victory for conformism, for corporatism, for higher education's dull love of hierarchy & status. It's a grievous defeat for imagination & experimentation.
I mean, the criteria for just war is literally in the Catechism (para 2309). It's not like the Church's view on this is new, or hidden, or whatever evangelicals think it is. It's "Just Cause" not "Just Because" doctrine.
I was teeing up this exact take...there's a reason Catholic conversion is the way it is...this isn't a sect you join after a 5 minute alter call at the end of a service your neighbor dragged you to.
So, a guy whose entire career is sampling other people's music for his own projects is in favor of AI in the arts....?
I'm sure noted Catholic JD Vance is on his way to right now to put Dort in his place...
Can never get over how tawdry the modern Right's view of Western Civilization is; nothing to build, nothing to aspire to, nothing even really to destroy or wage war against, just sullen resentment of their own children and seething hatred of the cities whose economics subsidies their regimes.
Okay but Ed Harris is great in this film.
There are 9,343 full time law professors in the United States. I'm worried Wutman doesn't understand what "significance" means (among other things)
How did Colby go from CNAS to MAGA? That's quite a journey.
Cheap (and good!) hot dogs and churros for everyone!
Now I'm remembering Charlie Wilson's War when Tom Hanks asks if the Pakistani generals speak English and one of the says "I went to Oxford..."
Wait...the vice president of the United States is campaigning for a Hungarian dictator? How long before we ask to join the Warsaw Pact?
Who knew that the Constitution was just a suggestion.
People love The Martian and Project Hail Mary but forget that he wrote Artemis in between
The person who got the job I was a finalist for in 2021 is an Assistant VP now...so, yeah.
from 1868 to 2025 there was little dispute about what the birthright clause meant and the idea that the past year has been some great scholarly debate is absurd. a handful of partisans and hacks have churned out junk so that the president can get what he wants. that’s it.
I love how people were like "Ellison is going to make CBS conservative" while every show runner has half a dozen scripts written by the Fraternal Order of Police each week.
the types of podcasts: a guide
I just assumed they gave you a dirt bike when you moved to suburban TN if you didn't have one already (for rural TN you get a RZR).
Billionaires out here trying to Magic 8 Ball what to make when people just want the CW back. Cheap shows. 24 episodes a year. Genre. Drama. Pretty people filmed in Canada somewhere. Don't overthink it.
What Florida basketball does is none of my concern
7000 Marines and sailors were killed on Iwo Jima. Not sure he's thought this through.
Why in Earth would he respond to this question on an open-source platform?
Another example of how these people desperately want to be part of the institutions they claim to hate.
"The Declaration of Independence Center for the Study of American Freedom" what in the George Orwell?
This is the best gender reveal I've ever seen.
The obvious problem with this argument (aside from all the ick) is that, Constitutionally, none of that matters. The law is unambiguously clear in birthright citizenship. Period.
