Once upon a time, today was important. On the old congressional calendar, lame ducks, and the fallibility of the Founders.

Following from this point, don't get too hyped about an advance contract. There is almost no cost to a uni press giving you a contract based on a proposal, but you get locked in and might run in to disagreements down the line with editors whose vision for your book might differ as it develops.
Does the bronze medal winner in hockey always skip the medal ceremony?
Andrew Ross Sorkin has been peddling Hoover rehabilitation in his book on the 1929 market crash too. Just flat out wrong.
Ugh, yes, good point. I reposted.
This one with alt text. Sorry for forgetting that.
Ok, turns out there were in fact people in the bushes. 😆
We definitely thought there were people inside the bushes and expected dancing.
Chris Collinsworth barely able to suppress his contempt for this game.
Damn. Bad Bunny killed that.
You're just out here expanding our understanding of what a dad movie can be.
Someone at the Supreme Court Historical Society thought it was a good idea to let me discuss with distinguished professor Robert Post and society president Jim Duff the 1925 Judges Bill that gave the Sup Ct control over it's docket. It was a great conversation! Take a listen.
The point is that it is dangerous to have kids walking to school. They will have to share the street with cars driving down one lane streets. In my neighborhood kids could make it, but it is not free of risk.
Kids will have to walk to school in the streets. The roads are basically one lane almost everywhere. I want my kids in school too, but our neighborhood is an accident waiting to happen right now.
This ain't on the schools though. It is a legit mess out there, and that is on the county, right?
Only way kids can get to my elementary school is for them to walk in the street. And the streets are barely clear. We are going to have to organize a massive parent shoveling army to make a dent in it.
Hot take: I found The Conversation to be boring and difficult to sit through even before the advent of cell phones.
When I was in grad school at UVa a Black woman who was a candidate for student gov't president was assaulted in a racially-motivated attack. During a party at my house, a student (who had not been invited) said the attack was staged. I immediately threw him out of my house. It was very satisfying.
I'd suggest one step further: "we disagree on tactics, that doesn't necessarily make you a fuckin idiot."
True. But tomorrow is gonna be day 3 and I wouldn't mind them doing some schooling from home at this point.
What happened to "surviving the ground"?!
As clear a.sign as any that Pegula and Beane have no real plan to get the Bills over the hump.
If McDermott just had Allen take a knee at the end of the first half on Saturday the Bills win and he probably keeps his job.
One of these days the Bills will put themselves into a position at the end of a pivitol playoff game where a shirt call by the refs can't take the game away from them. Today was of course not that day.
I keep seeing people say that people are saying that Jackson is a choker but I've yet to see someone actually say that.
It just had stupid, stupid mistakes. And a few bad balls from Allen to boot.
And yet, despite 5 turnovers, they win the game if Allen throws a couple balls just a little better.
These games are lost on the margins, and this one comes down to the stupidy of not taking a knee to end the first half. And that is on McDermott.
