Not sure showing me ads for statewide Florida elections here in Virginia makes that much sense tho it may be fair to assume Floridians make up most of the UVa-FSU audience

"Mike Faist is fun, cast against his usual good-boy type as Adam’s meaner, stronger brother Charles" feels like a review of someone who only saw Challengers and maybe didn't understand it.

People angrily demanding why he must be punished and why we can't restore him is the fucking opposite of restorative justice.

I haven't watched the 'East of Eden' adaptation yet but this is a book I didn't finish because 'This woman is SO EVIL JUST BECAUSE SHE'S EVIL' was not a compelling premise for me + so I have a hard time with hand-wringing that the adaptation tries to give her motivation.

Painter and Bohm being the heroes of a postseason game is really, really cool if you know how both of their seasons went and how often fans in comment sections wanted both of them thrown into the ocean.

If you respond to my observations about Democrats’ chances in Texas by saying the GOP will pull off a state-wide sweep and “Texas is going to Texas,” I will block you. We are not a monolith; that remark dismisses the incredible work activists did and are doing to get us as close as we are.

There is a moment at the very very end of Abdul El-Sayed's podcast with Ezra Klein (book recommendation section) where he talks about the idea of "speaking truth to pain" and this will be staying with me for an extremely long time. www.nytimes.com/2026/09/25/o...

But there’s also something about truth to pain. We talk a lot about truth to power, but I think it’s actually a lot harder to speak truth to pain. I say that as someone who went to medical school, realizing that in a lot of our politics right now, we’ve got to get a lot better at speaking truth to pain if we’re going to get through some of these challenges that we have.

What does “truth to pain” mean?

It’s one thing to look power in the eye and say: You’re wrong about this. But there’s a way in which pain is very difficult to reason with. Because when somebody is in their pain, they’re in their trauma. They see that pain, and they may not see what’s causing it.

I remember just very explicitly being in a trauma ward with a gunshot wound patient and watching this big guy with his hand on his gunshot wound. All the folks are trying to pull his hand off his pain, that point of his gunshot wound, this clear vulnerability.

And this emergency room doctor had the presence of mind to be like: Everyone, stop. And she looks him in the eyes, and she’s like: I get that really hurts, and I’m so sorry that you’re here. You don’t want to be here. We don’t want you to be here. But if you don’t let us fix this, you could die. So I’m going to take your hand, and I’m going to move it off, OK? Because I need to get there so that you can live.

She was speaking truth to pain. He understands he’s at the hospital, he needs care, but he also doesn’t want anybody to touch the wound. Which is a natural thing. And I think it is a really great metaphor for how we think about a lot of these challenges we talked about today.

Given the AI music dipshit post, I do think it's worth pointing out that Bruce Springsteen's NEBRASKA turns 44 today -- arguably his best album, a deeply personal work he made alone with a four-track recorder. Humans make art. Computers make noise.

Let me give you the actual solution to this problem. Universities and colleges have to hire football players as union employees (AFL-CIO, same as the NFL), with no requirement to attend school. They get health and retirement benefits, and are limited to a five year employment contract.

the truth is sometimes "bragging" is in fact normalizing and we should do it. see also: volunteerism and advocacy of all kinds. like yeah, search your heart every so often to make sure you're doing it for the right reasons (or else you'll get less accurate about when you SHOULD do it), but: do it.
