@Afinetheorem Are you serious? This study was done in 2015 and the situation has only gotten worse. This statement could not be more ignorant of worsening of material conditions for young people https://t.co/Uz1EnVRn7A
@ryangrim I love your work but I was really disappointed in how you handled this. I wished you had done more to take her seriously earlier on in the campaign - she did a great job speaking to her positions on your show but it seemed like you didn't think she was worth your time at all
I have a short story in the Yale Review! It’s got everything: evil gays, Florida, credit card points, bloodshed. Thank you to Clare Sestanovich for the excellent edits. Enjoy 🔪 https://t.co/vTSSZilAiw
I spent 5 hours watching both games, like always. Just brain farted. We recorded right after game and I was trying to rip through 15 things I wanted to talk about as fast as possible and just messed up. Shit happens. My bad. Really hope you can forgive me, Josh Eberley.
People shit on the Thompson twins because they know they’re good because nothing burger players who were top 10 picks like Anthony Black exist and no one cares.
Recently I listened to an excellent podcast episode of @HaratePod from @zeusisdead and @SuryaPrakashBS with @AbhijnanaSurya on the legacy of Kannada statesman, public servant, and poet D.V. Gundappa. I was inspired to translate it into English:

I have largely stopped following or concerning myself with basketball. This account will gradually transition to teaching and learning Kannada, a South Indian language with 60 million speakers. Here is a substack post I made recently on this

democrats losing on the biggest human rights issue of our time to this absolute maniac because they’re so deep in the pockets of israel is beyond embarrassing
engelbert has mismanaged the W so bad for so long, been such an abject disaster and the only thing more disgusting than that mckinsey fraud is fucking silver carrying water for her
Democrats will draw from Trump the lesson that doing things is horrific. When the wheel turns and Democrats are in power, they won't roll it all back nor start doing good things unilaterally, instead saying this would be Trumpian abuse of power.
Ezra Klein is what you get when a society values vacuous eloquence over substantive knowledge. A sickeningly sweet voice that says nothing over and over again in hours and hours of podcasts and pages and pages of newspaper space, yet people convince themselves he’s the voice of reason because he merely sounds reasonable
so proud of russillo today for showing his allegiance to bell hooks and the fight to eliminate patriarchy. i always knew this was where his heart lay, a lot of haters ate shit today
Over the years I haven’t loved some of the WNBA arguments for higher pay but now it’s pretty simple. If the Vegas Aces sell for $2m in 2021 and are supposedly worth $290-$310m now, why would you expect the players to receive just 9% of the revenue? The Valkyries expansion fee was $50m two years ago. Today expansion cost is $250m.
In what other profession would someone as valuable as Caitlin Clark make only $78k?

Draymond Green and Nikola Jokić have two of the highest basketball IQs in the NBA. The chess match between them can be easy to miss -- an example of which came on a sideline out-of-bounds set where they tried to one up each other:
