Robert and I were in the same grad program at the same time and this is *so* true.
One advantage of having been trained by profs who acted as if absurdly aggressive meanness was a sign of philosophical talent is that once I was out in the profession, the standard grade meanness of the rank-and-file in philosophy seemed merely petty, almost amusing

I’m peeved about how it treated everything.
I'm STILL peeved about how Star Trek Strange New Worlds treated the Gorn.

We need to stop holding our breaths for a coup de grace. There won't be one. It'll be "death by a thousand cuts."

The Art Deco brilliance of the former Beresford Hotel on Sauchiehall Street in Glasgow. Built in 1937, it was designed by William Beresford Inglis, who later went on to manage and own it.

The best movie in the series.
☢️#97. Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior, 1981. Like children imitating a magic trick, this masterwork of simplicity inspired an entire sub-genre of inferior work - never to be outdone. That is until the magician retook the stage again in 2015. #classic 5/5 ☢️

The true value of social media platforms is to remind us never to underestimate the capacity of anonymous randos to summon extreme confidence when seizing an opportunity to scold a stranger with respect to matters they know nothing about

Given that we all did perfectly well before there was an internet — better in fact — we’ll be just fine if it ever goes away.
We've got a new group of Verge articles that are completely free to read (today only)!

First up, from @sesmith.lol: The internet is forever. But also, it isn’t. What happens to our culture when websites start to vanish at random?
What happens when the internet disappears?
Huge swaths of the web are vanishing. What does that do to our culture?
