Cyclists (we cannot call them bikers those guys are cool) want all the benefits of pedestrians and vehicles but none of the responsibilities. They have turned roads in Minnesota into impossible intersections for their protection as they consistently break laws for their safety.
Just drop out of Harvard and read a book. Please.
Ideally before you realize in 50 years that "you dropped 150 grand on a fuckin' education you could have got for a dollar fifty in late charges at the public library"
I have never won a bourbon or sneaker or beer drop and I will have to apologize to my child because yes, in fact, I did not get into the free city swim lessons that filled up in 90 seconds this morning.
Sorry sport.
The Lord has graciously shown me I am very washed I got upset I didn’t bring my birding ‘bins’ on vacation.
Absolutely devastating both for my self-esteem and potentially missing out on a condor
Yes. There are a number of fans who would rather have a team of Minnesota kids/alum for a coach and lose early in the tournament than win championships.
The number one way to get kids in Minnesota to want to play for Minnesota? Win.
Bob Motzko not going after Canadian juniors which was a new world for this college hockey season made little sense & it burned him. Need someone young & not necessarily connected to the program which means getting away from the 90% of the roster must be Minnesotans mentality.
Anthony Edwards:
"I woke up today and knew I was gonna get 40. I seen Cade go for 40 and I said sh*t, that mean I gotta get 40 too."

America’s political landscape is more complicated than it used to be. Here’s my attempt to depict what I see as the seven broad camps today. Most people I know fall pretty cleanly into one of these circles (each of which has some common ground with the two adjacent circles).
Some additional points:
- The top two circles (green/yellow) are concerned first and foremost with the rise of illiberalism—disregard for the constitution, cancel culture, mob behavior, political violence. They see liberal vs illiberal as more critical right now than left vs right. In 2020, they agreed that wokeness was bad but today they’re divided on whether Trump or Harris/Biden are the lesser of two evils.
- For the middle two circles (blue/red), left vs right is the main thing. They’re not illiberal themselves but tend to focus on illiberalism from the other side while ignoring or condoning illiberalism from their own team. Both skew older and are the main consumers of traditional media, whether it be cable news or newspapers.
- The two lower circles (pink/orange) share a strong sense of grievance, place utmost importance on identity, tend to view identity groups (race, religion, sex, etc.) as monoliths, and are prone to believing conspiracy theories that fit with their worldview. Both skew younger, with woke skewing feminine and upper class and groyper skewing masculine and lower class. Both use revolutionary rhetoric, seeing the establishment as rotten to the core, and readily employ illiberal tactics under the belief that desperate times call for desperate measures.
Thoughts?
