This episode was a gut punch. The guest was so well-selected. It’s hard for anyone to make an argument this it’s okay to lose an entrepreneur like her. And her candor - brutal. I’ll be thinking of this episode for a long time. I hope she finds great European distribution.

Question in the headline equals “no”.

And that is before you consider the endless enrichment that reading Cicero, Catullus, Horace, Suetonius, and many others contributed to my life.

I took four years of Latin and both AP exams. In addition to those exams contributing to the 15 credits I took into college, Latin is the reason I got a 5 on the AP English Language exam and it was the reason I got the SAT score that got me a full tuition scholarship to my state university.

I just became a Material Supporter. After several years, I feel like I am relying on Lawfare’s work now more than ever to cut through the noise and give informed, in-depth analysis. We are fortunate to have organizations like yours.

Huh? It’s being issued by a judge and the court order is requiring it be provided to everyone potentially affected by the EOs and OMB memo, as noted in the document itself?

I’m so glad for my first marriage. It taught me so much about what I needed in my second, which has been lovely.

Okay, given your association with our mutual city of residence, this was a very confusing post.

Holy shit it’s bananas garbage all the way down. This is exactly the kind of podcast I’d be obsessed with understanding.

That website is cancer. The internet is ruined. (Not the content: just the vessel.)

But you recognize the comment I was directly replying to said if the historian listens to the people etc? Except enough of those people said his initial take was fine. So merely listening to the people isn’t useful advice at all. I’m not disagreeing with removing the post. Just her logic.

The problem with this take is that there were plenty of (ostensibly and, recognizing no one was confirming IDs, purportedly) Black folks in the comments who felt the post was perfectly fine for Kevin to make. I’m fine with him backing it out, but there wasn’t consensus from the people in question.

Dammit I’ve already been outbid in a bidding war well beyond the point where I’d have to have a hard conversation with my wife about what the hell I am doing.

It really does not. Kayfabe has nothing to do with mixed martial arts. Unless you also think boxing has kayfabe, I guess. Dana White is an asshole and being his comms director might be meaningful, but MMA and pro wrestling are very different. Ask Brock Lesnar.
