120/24=5.
120/23.97=5.006
I think it will be fine.

I'm waiting for the day when 120 fps becomes the streaming standard so we can watch 60 fps like civilized people and 24 fps classics without looking like they're being played back through the world's jankiest VCR.

I'm starting to want a game called "Trump Quote or Dril Shitpost?"

Ooooh, that “sir” had “yes, chef” levels of spiciness.

Like, if you told me there was a Cardinal Gianluigi Bambino Pepino Lambrusco de Penne, I’d be more apt to believe *that* person exists than Cardinal Pizza Ball over here.

“The enemy does not fight with conventional strategy. My years of formal preparation at the Space Fighting Academy School are nothing compared to your experiences in the Galactic Hinterlands.”

In other news: Water wet, possibly wine.

He looks like the guy in a sci-fi franchise that everyone swears is a natural tactical genius but will obviously end up eating an enormous fistful of shit before the end of Act II.

The only difference between Callard and any big time philosopher in the 1950s is that after shtupping her graduate student, she didn’t write off de facto coauthorship of some titanic work by thanking them for “organizing notes and typing manuscripts.”

And yet, as I said somewhere else, for all of her edgelord posturing, she’s so soul-crushingly banal. She fancies herself a latter-day Nietzsche but is instead the obnoxious know-it-all first year we’ve endured a hundred times. The only difference is the first year has a chance to grow up.

The Nazi stuff is bad, but I also just can't get past the fact that she's so *boring*. Like, everything she does has this air of "look at me, the mighty philosophical edgelord," but it's just so crushingly banal.

MR is *not* a pronoun.

About 10 years ago, Mayo Clinic changed their dress code so that women who wore skirts were no longer *required* to wear pantyhose.
It was—and I swear to God I'm not making this up—the lead story on the news that evening.

Remember when Johnny Damon cutting his mullet and Randy Johnson shaving his mustache because they signed with the Yankees were literal press events?

What is literally AOC doing? She’s being threatened by administration officials for holding events that teach people their rights and having rallies bringing attention to the human costs of Trump and Musk’s illegality. Being mad at Dems in general is understandable (I am) but not AOC. She’s working.

NO GODS OR KINGS

They want to be able to say racist/sexist/homophobic stuff not because they think it's funny, but BECAUSE THEY THINK IT'S TRUE.
And while Vance's defense is "get a load of these humorless scolds," his real view is REAL MANLINESS IS INESCAPABLY SEXIST/RACIST/HOMOPHOBIC.
We should all reject that.

I’m especially interested in #2. The past few weeks have almost been uncanny in how Trump’s wrecking ball had aligned with topics in my PhilSci course, but I’m not sure how to connect that with action outside of “Yup, seems bad!”

I moved to Minnesota in part BECAUSE of this shit and if we’ve gotten six inches this winter, I’m the King in the North.
