@DKThomp We need more analysis of this edu gap. Why do progressive pols resonate so much less with non-college voters? Also, as a society, I think we agree education is good. But this gap suggests it's in the interest of moderates/rights to, e.g., keep college unaffordable

@MattZeitlin Think you could already make a case for Giannis. MUCH better defensive player and already has more MVPs and more 1st team All NBAs. He'd have to really fall off a cliff to not be a lock ahead of Dirk imo

@Steven_Hyden Agree the acting is fine--the problem is the hair. He looks like the lead singer in America's very worst Smash Mouth cover band.

@longform This is upsetting, but thanks for curating so many years of great writing! This is a little like when Grantland shuttered, in that I'll now also be typing "longform" into my search bar and then sadly deleting it for the rest of my life

@TheKnicksWall Terrible. For a team as perennially bad as the knicks the obvious, only move is to do throwback uni. The past is all we have.

@JesseDavidFox @aeaglin @jaxxonhoward @fsgbooks Yep, i left book publishing a while back. Now i get to look forward to reading your book as a regular member of the reading public. Can’t wait!!

[Kevin Murphy @KevRedMurph]

@JesseDavidFox @aeaglin @jaxxonhoward @fsgbooks This sounds great, congrats!

@Steven_Hyden Honestly this is not a mistake tbh. This song slaps

@SDBedford @Steven_Hyden Was born in '89, and definitely feel like Deerhunter was a hugely important indie rock band in my college days. Also remember Atlas Sound being a thing and having hyperbolic conversations about Bradford Cox being the greatest musician alive

@spiccarella Wow. Lorrie Moore laying down BARS

@thepressboxpod @bryancurtis what are your takes on signers lining up to put their names on a vaguely anti-culture-war letter like it's the declaration of independence?

@Steven_Hyden Having not spent that much time with their latest yet, I think one could make a case for all four albums being Best Big Thief... which is wild

A real penguin “interned” at our book distribution center! Thanks to @MarylandZoo for letting us borrow one of their animal ambassadors.

This is the Knicks trivia that was missing from my life

[Hanif Abdurraqib @NifMuhammad]

one of the great album title / story behind album title combos of all time IMO -- I think about it and laugh at least a couple times a month
