Brown sent out an faq that was like does this agreement obligate us to do anything? No! That would only be if the Trump administration did not abide by the literal letter of the agreement and how could that happen

Can't imagine why students at Brown this year would want to not ID as non-binary as much as they used to.

Brown University is ‘functionally inaccessible’ to transgender students after Trump settlement

“Everyone I talked to thought it only applied to sports. But it applies to everything," one transgender student told The Advocate.

Hochul has learned that people like it when you tell the truth about people who hate you , maybe anyone can

Q: Politico reported on a group chat of young Republicans. Does this just reflect some bad apples?

HOCHUL: Some bad apples? These are the future of the GOP. This is so vile it's hard to find the words to put into context ... there's gotta be consequences ... this bullshit has to stop.

Incidentally, I think the VA AG race will be a good indicator of how tired of it people are - how we're always supposed to perform absolute horror that some dem has intemperate texts with a friend or whatever at a time when this stuff is getting more mainstream in the GOP

The thing is, I really think republican gains with young voters are going to be transitory for the most part. A lot of young people are hopeless and disenfranchised more than they are committed conservatives. BUT if you are young and like the GOP it's not bc of anything that happened before Trump

The "Oklahoma City Thunder" is a Chat-GPT ass team and I'm tired of pretending it's not. AARON Wiggins? TWO Jalens Williams and one's just got a typo? Give me a break.

From 09-10 to 14-15, Monta Ellis was second in the NBA in total FGA, with 8,125 (only 43 fewer than LeBron). Slight difference in efficiency, though:

LeBron: 61.2% true shooting
Monta: 51.6% TS

I'm interested in whether Flagg could actually be a PG or whether they're just trying to pretend they didn't trade Luka but that's definitely a lot of big defensively skilled guys if there's enough scoring

It's perhaps not clear that "ratio me, it's a badge of honor" was a joke about that post from yesterday about the lame Atlantic column about how great Bari Weiss is
