imo it takes a certain level of cognitive dissonance to be a fan of international elite sports as well as a leftist. and i think you’ve just got to kinda accept that

the nhl trying to profit off of heated rivalrys popularity.. then immediately the top american scorer in the nhl this season (who is asian) was snubbed from the usa olympics roster in favor of an all white team.. and now this shit with the usa mens team in the locker room

@itzbroccoili @edmundbillings @OneChrisEdwards correct, I don’t use a calculator to calculate the multiplication table or very basic sums. Do you? Same level of concerning as needing an AI to check basic fundamental building blocks of the English language.

@HazmatRobert @burtgurney @_grahamsurrey_ @dieworkwear 1) bc on that specific day they weren’t on sale. says nothing about the other 364 days in 2024.

2) it was actually someone arguing for your side who said Jcrew famously constantly runs sales. I was explaining the natural conclusion of that stmt.

3) Jcrew constantly runs sales

@burtgurney @_grahamsurrey_ @dieworkwear “these pants on sale now are barely cheaper than these pants full price a year ago. also, this brand runs sales all the time so logically, they also offered the same discount last year, making the pants even cheaper” is not the point you think it is. rather the opposite in fact

[derek guy @dieworkwear]

I actually think you've missed the point.

This is a photo of Yale’s Skull & Bones society, a secretive senior club that’s attracted attention over the years thanks to its many alumni who later rose to powerful positions in finance, law, and government. The man in the center—just to the left of the clock—appears to be George H.W. Bush. If that’s the case, the photo was likely taken around 1968, the year Bush graduated from Yale.

Thanks to their privilege, members of this club—known as Bonesmen—were typically upper-crust White Anglo-Saxon Protestants. These were the kinds of young men who attended elite prep schools like Andover, institutions designed to funnel them into the Ivy League and set them on a smooth social track toward powerful careers in Wall Street or Washington. To join this exclusive club, you had to be “tapped”—singled out as exceptional within an already insular WASP world.

If this photo was taken in 1968, it would mark a pivotal moment in the club’s history. Skulls and Bones admitted its first Black member in 1965 and its first openly gay member in 1975. When Yale went coeducational in 1969, some Bonesmen pushed to admit women by 1971, but alumni resisted the idea until finally relenting in 1992.

It’s genuinely remarkable that the person who posted this tweet is not only Mexican but also Catholic. It boggles the mind that someone with that background could believe they’d have been admitted into an elite White Anglo-Saxon Protestant club in 1968. As an older friend of mine—who actually moved in those circles—once told me, there was a great deal of anti-Catholic sentiment in those environments at the time. He would have been considered the "blue haired brown woman," in the original poster's terms.

It’s ironic, then, that as these once-exclusive societies have become more open and diverse, he’s the one who stands to benefit. Today, he’s far more likely to be accepted into that kind of club. People should look at these old photos with a clear understanding of what they represent—closed, insular worlds—and recognize that their own social position likely wouldn’t have granted them a seat at that table back then.

Finally, you can still wear suits, if you want. Ethan Wong (IG: @ethanmwong) is a young guy who runs a menswear blog called A Little Bit of Rest. I say this with affection—because I’m a menswear nerd—but he and his friends are all menswear nerds who enjoy dressing up. There’s nothing stopping you, even as a college student, from doing the same. His friend group includes people of different ethnicities and genders, and they all just wear cool stuff because they love clothes. You can wear whatever you want and not be weird about it.

The irony is that society has actually become better for people like the poster—even as he laments those changes, caught in a sense of disillusionment about his own identity and background. It's like that Dave Chappelle skit of the blind Black guy who thinks he's white.

This is so funny to me, every generation (or micro generation I guess) really thinks they’re so unique frfr. Bruh you really think the 2009 vs. 1997 gap is bigger than 1994 vs. 1982? I grew up using facebook, which sounds old until you realise the 42yo grew up using floppy disks

some Jacobin in the year 1815 had a vision of a TikTok zooming in on Kate Middleton's Vogue cover and thought "right, we'll be having none of that, somebody warm up the guillotine and go get Louis XVI"

If you're not allowed to wear equipment with Native American imagery on it that was actually designed by a member of the community in question, what does it say about the NHL that it continues to permit the Blackhawks to use a logo that wasn't
