This is a woefully naive tweet. He’s free because of a very public campaign by important Democrats to get him home
Without some people sticking their neck out for “bad groups”, he’d be unlawfully rotting in a Salvadoran gulag
@tejfbanalytics He is genuinely a smart dude. There’s a cool article (I think WSJ) that profiled his time at Cal where he would go between practice and some big shot internship
Like, the dude had a legitimate business career ahead of him, before he became a Heisman front runner
@mikitaposts@lulumeservey Person 1: *makes a racist joke about Indians*
Person 2: “was that a racist joke about Indians?”
P1 (genius, intellectually unmatched): “And why would you say that? Are you some kind of RACIST???”
@dogooderjohn@CCPISASSH0E I have to imagine it works in the reverse: people who are able to find humor in many situations, even tragic ones, are likely to be pretty funny, which are the type of people who end up being successful comedians
Professional comedy likely self-selects for people like Conan
Philip Rivers is back.
Patriots have 11 wins.
Cowboys are average.
Joe Flacco is slinging it.
There is drama in Philly.
Matthew Stafford is a stud.
Seahawks defense is nasty.
Aaron Rodgers is the 4-seed.
Browns and Raiders are eliminated.
Your childhood ain’t over yet.
So strange that he admits market forces lead to high prices, but then says he’s “trying to get healthier options” in airports
Like, don’t those same market forces choose which products are sold? Being willing to intervene on selection but not price is so odd
@MetaAurelius@Kalshi@RobinhoodApp The question is around what does it mean to be free and is there a duty to do good
A fentanyl addiction is not free, and the drug dealer is not doing good
@G0ffThew As deflating as media consolidation is, WB was going to be bought, and I’m glad it was by Netflix and not one of the right wing owned puppet orgs
(That said, obviously not why many people would be liking the original tweet)
@DanielDiMartino Show people that capitalism can work for them and this problem goes away
It certainly can be done, but something needs to change

It’s simple: people won’t think highly of socialism if they believe a capitalism system can provide them a fair shot
It’s certainly doable, but people of all levels are feeling squeezed, so something has to change

@MtnDoe@CantEverDie You’re right, but if he doesn’t, that becomes His Thing
A challenge to the Speaker of the House is no minor matter, defending the position would consume his time
Zohran wants to be the mayor of NYC, and he chose to spend his time working to tangibly improve New Yorkers’ lives
