9/10 times if you take politics completely off the table you can have perfectly pleasant conversations with everyone.

@ihasnotwiter @holland_tom 😂😂😂

[Jay Lad @JayTan150]

@SwipeWright @BretWeinstein Bingo. But unfortunately that doesn’t create high engagement.

[Jay Lad @JayTan150]

@DoctorAkke @AmericanReform_ @michaeljknowles Exactly. People citing the Talmud have no clue what it is or know it was written over ~600 years and is mainly rabbis debating each other over difficult edge cases, and often take the “other” side in order to present as strong of an argument as possible. Echoes of JS Mill.

@bschaeffer12 Hilariousness ensued.

@briebriejoy In this podcast, Ezra fully promotes economic populism and running more far left candidates in areas they can win, as well as embracing more centrist Democrats running in areas they could win. You either didn’t listen or are misrepresenting his views on purpose.

@mattyglesias Big if true.

[Jay Lad @JayTan150]

@BRGallemore @HardcoreHistory Haha what the fuck are you on about? Get outta here.

[Jay Lad @JayTan150]

@sometherapist Haha. Good one! Think we’re too far gone, but I like seeing the aspiration.

@jillene8990 @LozzaFox Helen Joyce. Many of her interviews worth checking out.

@ltthompso Let’s go CHIEFS

[Jay Lad @JayTan150]

@TomScibelli Let’s go CHIEFS

[Jay Lad @JayTan150]

@colwight @EYakoby Could be a club meeting of some sort? But yeah, good question.

[Jay Lad @JayTan150]

@HistoryBoomer This is one of the most negative outcomes of the election; everyone freaking out about everything for another four years. The way this drains the country is awful and idk where we end up afterwards.

[Jay Lad @JayTan150]

@Renmakesmusic @Silversky545 There are some real climate change denialists, but from what I’ve seen, most good faith conservative commentators generally agree it’s happening, but the proposed solutions are what becomes so politically polarized and toxic.

[Jay Lad @JayTan150]

@stoolpresidente Exactly. Refs made some horrible calls but Chiefs also made some amazing plays and Houston effed up.

@ProfRobAnderson Not taking Secured Transactions made the bar exam way more stressful.

@jamespthomas92 @bendreyfuss @LittleMammith lol you’re overthinking this man. It’s A because if you read the direct question prompt it asks which of the following is “most strongly supported” and it’s A.

[Jay Lad @JayTan150]

@jamespthomas92 @bendreyfuss @LittleMammith This is just part of taking standardized tests. Based on the directions, and based on the prompt, A is the only statement that is directly true based on the prompt. E is not even discussed. I took the LSAT many years ago now but the test often makes you pick the “best answer.”

[Jay Lad @JayTan150]

@jamespthomas92 @bendreyfuss @LittleMammith It’s a conclusion that you could likely infer from the prompt, but it isn’t a true statement directly supported by what was said.
