How do you know that the toothbrush was invented in Arkansas? Because anywhere else it would've been called a teethbrush. (My dentist told me this joke so it's okay.)

My several endorsement deals require that I issue this apology: by "fuck all y'all" I meant specifically "all y'all."

In 1989 it felt like the air was on fire as I watched the events in Tiananmen Square on TV at the student union building in Arlington, Texas. Then in Beijing for the 10th anniversary. I think a lot about those students. Death to all tyrants. ⛓️‍💥

The bro-dudes have completely colonized my PT clinic. When I first began going 3 years ago, at least 50% of the employees were women. Now it's 100% solid sausage fest. They do that thing that straight men do where they act like they're performing some kind of sports maneuver instead of just being

One ought to really learn to read before attempting to build a canon. One might want to also question the assumptions of canons before offering a critique of them. Yes, this is to dissuade you from clicking on that LiberalCurrents article.

Is it too late to print this on tee shirts and bumper stickers: “Nawrocki? Nie wróci.” Or how about: “Polska na wrocki”? Perhaps not as simple or fun as just calling Duda “Dupa” for the past several years. (He’ll always be President Dupka to me.)

Pretty wild to make your entire case about how immigrants are lawless freeloaders, but having to go to their workplaces and court hearings to arrest them.

Nothing confirms the fact that The Handmaid's Tale takes place in an entirely fictional world quite like the fact that Christian nationalists accept the science of climate catastrophe.

I read the first 30 pages of my dissertation earlier today, the first time in probably 15 years or so, and I am even more convinced that the main reason I never had an academic career is because I was just too damn smart. Also: shitty committee members, but mostly just too damn smart.

That Politico piece by Jonathan Cowan is, like most "middle-ground" hand-wringing, spurious, unscientific garbage. Any claim that either sex or gender is only ever a simple binary knows too few people and has never spent time among animals or other living beings. Also, Politico is always garbage.

It's always a surprise when I get back to where I left off most recently in my translation work: "You're shitty as fuck. Like always." [Jak zawsze, jesteś zjebany jak chuj.]
