@il0vemilktea_ @cix_eria yeah they don't normally let you publish academic papers in the guise of ur fav anime girl

@WB_Baskerville @souljagoyteller Yeah, his "what is truth?" in John always read to me as a kind of spiteful nihilism - a sarcastic way of saying there is no truth beyond what the strongest voice says (the crowd calling for Jesus' blood.) Really a deep moral cowardice, a refusal to say what's good or bad

@SteelersWin109 *3rd-best in the AFC, T-5th in the league, Lamar still missing more games than the starting QBs above him, I believe

[Jumpy loves the dialectic ⭕🚦🐠🦌👻🐦 @JumpySlipstream]

@SteelersWin109 3rd-best win% in the league, and Lamar missed more games to injury than Allen or Mahomes did. They're not underperforming, the Steelers are overperforming.

@aufgehenderRest What's the argu for the Miller translation? He translates technical terms inconsistently, arbitrarily capitalizes words, misnumbers paragraphs - all things cleaned up in the Pinkard. Pinkard flagging when he renders "fur sich" as s/t other than "for itself" is huge by itself.

@katrosenfield If an artist canceling a performance after tickets are sold undermines social trust, then surely the state acting lawlessly (in a country that professes the rule of law) undermines it too. What is "social trust" mean if it does not include the state?

@drumm_colin @rosswolfe Right but what you denied (if I read you right) is a more robust "spirit of the times" sort of thing. That's different than a set of logical forms/principles/normative relations through which objects are intelligible, which is what's needed to make "capitalism" a valid concept.

Kinda crazy how of all the "deep thinkers" he could've picked, he went with Epicurus

@LarsonDelbert @Philip_Goff Jesus was nothing exceptional in regard to moral teachings. I always love this Robert Ingersoll quote:

@_motherslug "No ear for prose rhythm" and yet he writes wonderfully bouncy sentences like these

Blue Jays got robbed on that challenge omg

This might be the greatest touchdown catch of all time. Never seen anything like this before.

Matt Bruenig is very clearly trying to do political economy, i.e., investigate the normative foundations of economic life. The fact that this constantly gets misinterpreted as doing economics, poorly, shows how little we actually consider these broad normative questions.

[Swann Marcus @SwannMarcus89]

I can’t believe Matt Breunig actually said this. How can you constantly talk about economics and literally not understand what risk even is?

@gllty Some real alcoholic logic here: "baby I'm sorry I hit you, you know I'm not myself when I'm drinking, I promise this is the last time."

Somewhere there's a Nietzschean point to be made about people [men] on top of the social order casting themselves as victims as a power play

@jensensuther It's got to be the "the I think must be able to accompany all my representations" line from the Deduction. That's a true launched-a-thousand-ships sentence.

@azforeman L'Académie Française lost its way the moment it let the bastard Frenglish «wokisme» into the language

I remember reading GR for the first time on a plane, getting to the Brigadier Pudding scene, and awkwardly trying to shield thw page from the sweet old lady sitting next to me before she could catch a glimpse of it.

Gravity's Rainbow (1973) has to be the gold standard of performative reading.

It's so funny how much of the "female communication styles are crazy!" trope just boils down to guys getting confused by any speech that's not a literal, declarative sentence in the indicative

asked wife if she wanted a massage and she said "yes but no funny business" but she did want funny business. women are a peculiar species
