No the fuck we don't.

@pescami “Scared of Wemby” is one way to put it. “Great offense that figures out the defense” is another way, and perhaps more accurate given they’re up 2-0.

We should pursue equal justice, even if that leads to disparate racial outcomes.

The job of government is equal justice, not equal outcomes.

One standard for everyone, and leave it to people groups to rise to that standard.

This is American Conservatism 101

@henryolsenEPPC Aren’t there still a couple weeks to find—I mean count—votes for Steyer?

@SherwoodStrauss posits that the WNBA was started as a tax write off for the NBA, it was never expected to earn money, but it received perpetual funding. This allowed it to become something akin to a nonprofit or NGO, so the focus of the WNBA has become political. It promotes “social change” more than anything we expect from other sports leagues.

@Antweegonus Wow you’re really an amazingly good person. So impressed.

[Esoteric Card Games @LukeCanasta]

@politicalmath Yes, younger generations are much nicer when it comes to politics.

@HorribleSanity @GlennPudick You could’ve yelled at him, or thrown something at him, or called the cops, all of which I would’ve done if someone tried to use my yard as a bathroom.

@annakhachiyan @annahourly0 Who are you trying to impress?

[Esoteric Card Games @LukeCanasta]

@HorribleSanity @GlennPudick Oh no! I live in SF and have unfortunately seen many public poopings but never on my property. What did you do?

@Blue_Balls80 @JDVance Your impotent rage is amusing to Americans.

@outofthecircles Most impressive photo.

[Esoteric Card Games @LukeCanasta]

@L0m3z Indeed. The master's tools will never be used to destroy his house, or some such.

@PincherMartin8 Incredible natural beauty and great weather. Politics and cost of living have gotten bad, but if you can afford it, hard to beat.

[Esoteric Card Games @LukeCanasta]

@achester99 Thus showing the limitation of statistics.

[Esoteric Card Games @LukeCanasta]

@PincherMartin8 @philipaklein And yet the Spurs got 6 more free throws than the Knicks in the game. Games are almost never decided by the refs.

[Esoteric Card Games @LukeCanasta]

@philipaklein Spurs got 27 free throws tonight.

Knicks: 21.

Maybe calm down about the refs being the Spurs 6th man.

@jarvis_best Second City; they called it that because deep down they knew everyone hated them.

@shipwreckedcrew Outside of tennis, women's sports just have never been popular. The interesting question is why tennis is the exception, not why other female sports don't break through (bc this is obvious: women don't care about sports much, and men vastly prefer men's sports).

[Esoteric Card Games @LukeCanasta]

@HonSokhomMao Well, you see, this is because Oakland sucks. The people who work for the City are just taking advantage of the incentives.
