so embarrassing
Every student breaking into this building on Columbia’s campus would be deeply critical of the Jan 6 rioters. You can’t have a society in which politics is conducted by laying siege to property whenever you want to make a point.
It was a 5-0 vote, which means GOP Commissioners Melissa Holyoak and Andrew Ferguson thought the case was compelling. Weird how the WSJ doesn’t mention that Mitch McConnell picks agreed with the merger challenge.

This is cruel. Hundreds of thousands of kids go blind and/or die each year from vitamin A deficiency. There will be more, thanks to Greenpeace lobbying a Filipino court to ban the planting of vitamin A–enriched rice. Activism should help people. It shouldn’t be a vanity project.

Guy with a PhD too stupid to figure out that willingly taking a job you’ve worked your whole life to get and being paid just ginormous bucks for it is the antithesis of slavery.

My wife’s grandfather was a makeup artist on the original Planet of the Apes. This is a 14k tie pin they gave out for people that worked on the movie. I’m totally geeking out right now
Good question
TikTok spent $27 million on lobbying since 2019, but failed. Perhaps rethink the idea that money controls everything in politics? politico.com/news/2024/04/2…
Joe Biden and Mike Johnson united to renew warrantless domestic spying, then to send $100 billion to fuel Endless War around the world (all of which Johnson said he opposed). I don't know what the CIA said or did to Mike Johnson in that SCIF, but it really worked. His reward:
This week is what governing looks like. Here are ten things Biden just did, from banning non-compete agreements to raising overtime pay to promoting steel and solar production to passing the first Federal privacy law to regulating TikTok. thebignewsletter.com/p/this-week-is…
.@jk_rowling's carefully phrased definition of “woman” is correct. The gamete-size definition is soundly based in evolutionary theory and has no exceptions – among humans, mammals, vertebrates, animals generally. And she’s right about beetroot. x.com/jk_rowling/sta…

4. Entrepreneurs and startups deceived how noncompetes has stifled innovation and blocked new ideas from coming to market. Healthcare workers described how noncompetes had led them to leave the profession entirely, depriving rural areas of care.
The Syrian Civil War has lasted for over 13 years. The death toll is over 614,000. Including over 162,000 civilians (and over 2 million injured civilians). There are 12 million refugees (7 million internal, 5 million abroad). And nobody cares because Israel isn't involved.…
It is simply not consistent with our Constitutional order to assert laws are invalid simply because they are old. The U.S. Chamber regularly engages in near treason, so I’m not surprised, but it’s still remarkable they say this out loud.

1. Today @FTC issued a final rule banning noncompetes for workers across the country. The rule will ensure that Americans have the freedom to pursue a new job, start a new business, or bring a new idea to market. ftc.gov/legal-library/…
Jerry Seinfeld quips "the movie business is over." “Film doesn’t occupy the pinnacle in the social, cultural hierarchy that it did for most of our lives. When a movie came out, if it was good, we all went to see it. We all discussed it. We quoted lines and scenes we liked. Now…
This is a good and obvious point, actually. Why have none of our millions of orbital satellites seen "the ships" - or whatever - as they arrive?

I AINT READING ALL THAT FREE PALESTINE is a pretty good summary of the caliber of thinking going on in the Ivy League today
For certain guys, the protests have to be about everything other than what the protesters openly declare them to be about: opposition to US support for Israel's obliteration of Gaza. Rather than address that, we get these manic obscurantist rambles about Maoism, Nazism, blah blah
What you are seeing on college campuses is textbook Maoism. The "demonstrators" you see are textbook Maoists, and many of them know they are and are that deliberately, intentionally. You are seeing Beijing University 1966, inter alia. These are our Red Guard, and it won't go away
@gtconway3d Been saying this for a year. When you line the two up the difference is apparent and jarring. It's hidden for some people because people read rage as executive function, directed cognition. But look at the difference and you can see what a mess he is.
@figbean It was figured out a loooong time ago 💯
I went to see him pitch a couple times. Shortest games you’d ever hope to see. Dude wasted no pitches and got outs. Mostly lazy grounders.
Greg Maddux faced 20,421 batters over the course of his career. Only 310 (1.5%) saw a 3-0 count. Of those, over half of them (177) were intentional walks.
The protesters obviously shouldn’t be doing this and the school should obviously be stopping them from doing it but also this guy should just push through them and stop making a scene.

@DavidCornDC their vision in a nutshell: women (and it's invariably women) should endure whatever violence finds them like a mule endures the yoke; because Vance and his ilk can't fathom a women's personhood beyond servitude.

You've never 'lived as a woman,' you just joined a particularly cosseted subgroup of men.

It was a 5-0 vote, which means GOP Commissioners Melissa Holyoak and Andrew Ferguson thought the case was compelling. Weird how the WSJ doesn’t mention that Mitch McConnell picks agreed with the merger challenge.
The WSJ editorial board eviscerates Lina Khan and the FTC, and rightly so, claiming it hit "comedic heights" in challenging the $CPRI $TPR merger "There’s no legal or economic logic to the Khan FTC’s antitrust policy other than that the only good merger is a dead merger."
Gen Z is the least religious generation. This trend will likely only continue. Is this a good or a bad thing?

Guy with a PhD too stupid to figure out that willingly taking a job you’ve worked your whole life to get and being paid just ginormous bucks for it is the antithesis of slavery.
The NFL draft is a lot like a slave auction, except the slaves aren’t working for free
If this was 1994, Jackie the Jokeman would’ve been feeding Howard one-liners on Hunter’s crackpipes & prostitutes, Fred would’ve been doing sound effects of Biden barely stammering through sentences, and Stuttering John would’ve been patching in phone calls from “Donny in Queens”
I've listened to probably thousands of hours of Howard Stern (don't ask) and this is the most embarrassing thing I've ever heard from him. Gushes how "lucky" we all are to have Biden as "Father of the Country," with an "organized administration" (?) and for "standing up to Putin"
