we cannot make an accurate list of the best tv shows of the 21st century because the 21st century still has many years left in it in which great television could yet be produced

An edcuation policy soloution that would get you killed by angry parents but also fix like 60% of problems after a couple of generations is children being randomly assigned a public school within ten miles of their house. That is the school you attend and you cannot transfer.

I truly, deeply, sincerely do think the guy flipping burgers at McDonalds should be able to afford rent, bills, and groceries with his paycheck alone. That's kind of the whole point of having a job and I can't believe this is considered a radical position.🤷🏽‍♀️

a take I’m working on is that when people say software is getting worse, that’s something like how people always say crime is going up even though it’s been going down for 30 years

Happy Labor Day! We’re out in Nashville to remind everyone that Starbucks has become the poster child for corporate greed. If you support workers, it’s time to BOYCOTT STARBUCKS until they stop stonewalling the over 12,000 union baristas fighting for a fair contract!

reacher season 1 review: in the last episode, reacher pretends to compliment finlay's physique--finlay takes it seriously, but then reacher makes it clear that he was teasing. But actually finlay has a very good physique, of the type that you can't really have without working out quite a lot

The way the history of pop was warped by boomer criticism/historiography into a hard dividing line between a supposed glop past and Elvis-and-everything-after with a rock focus was a massive reductive mistake that is still playing out.

Cops hate cities, hate the people living inside of them and are much more empathetic to someone trying to race through the city to enter and leave as quickly as possible than they are to like, a cyclist or pedestrian, who represent a class of people (city residents) the cop wished stopped existing

as someone once said, an IPO is what happens when the people who own the company think it's better to own less of the company and get some money instead, which is why we used to regulate IPOs so heavily

There are definitely a few sports where open competition would be fairly equal, and many many more where open competition would be the death of women's sports. This kind of ignorant lefty opinion may well partner with the right to kill them off.

🚨NEW: In the 9 months after last year’s reconciliation law enacted unprecedented SNAP cuts, the number of people receiving SNAP fell by more than 4.5 million. Based on available data, we estimate that at least 1.5 million fewer kids are receiving SNAP. www.cbpp.org/research/foo...
Graphic showing the change in SNAP participation from July 2024 to April 2026. Between the reconciliation law's enactment in July 2025 and April 2026, the number of people receiving SNAP fell by more than 4.5 million.

Also, if you want a good structural explanation of when trust in all the institutions started to 📉, the answer is Dec 12, 2000, when we learned our votes don't actually count & the baseline rules of the game weren't actually the rules of the game & the institutions were nothing but norms & duct tape

Endurance sports are a lot like graduate school in that if you try really hard and push yourself to the limits of what’s healthy for you, you can acquire various little esoteric merit badges you can try and explain the importance of to unimpressed loved ones.

This kind of person is usually able to distinguish between Klobuchar and the variety of worse alternatives if pressed, but they pretend not to be able to sometimes as part of an incoherent political message. It's straightforwardly more effective to be at odds with Klobuchar and also vote for her.
SMS messages that read:

"I will never vote for you in a thousand lifetimes. Take me off your list immediately"
"You have been unsubscribed from texts from Minnesotans for Klobuchar and will no longer receive messages"

I defended my PhD 10 years ago today. That was the least remarkable thing that happened that day. Sharing something I wrote about it last year. Since then "the horrors persist but so do we." And with dignity.

This episode has been a nightmare for my city and state, but I hope people realize it’s also a profound defeat and political catastrophe for Trump and DHS, who are slinking away having accomplished nothing. Minneapolis simply wouldn’t bend to them and they lost

Seeing that another Republican went on a big show and claimed that Minneapolis is burning, and I just desperately want everyone to treat these lies with the instant alarm and disdain you'd offer if they said, "The moon is made of cheese and I'm building my own rocket to eat some."

If any MN politicians want to see what’s really happening, they’re welcome to come ride along on my ICE patrol. They can watch 20 armed goons jump out of a racing convoy and abduct a random pedestrian, tear-gassing a half-dozen onlookers in the process, and then tell me how we need this agency

The very things that annoy you about kids are the same reasons y’all get on here saying you hate small talk and don’t speak to your neighbors. It’s hyper-individualism. It’s easier to project that discomfort onto the most vulnerable rather than examine how disconnected we’ve all become.
