It’s also about how we’re socialized to cope with that loneliness? Women are encouraged to build friendships based on emotional connection; men are encouraged to build them on naming some guys. Also, a lot of enriching solo hobbies (reading, crafting, etc.) are female coded.

If you want to tell me the plain language of the Constitution means something entirely different, you ought to have a heavy burden. But because we've allowed the public practices of folk constitutionalism to atrophy into lawyerly monopoly (see below), there's a brute appeal to authority available.
I gave the article a nice long 18th century-style title:
Folk Constitutionalism, or Why It Matters How Ordinary People Think about the Constitution
Here's the abstract, and a link to an ungated preprint: kevinjelliott.net/wp-content/u...

It's largely lost today because we've allowed constitutional law to become the exclusive preserve of lawyers, but the original idea of written constitutionalism was partly one of public education, publicity, & (proto-)democracy—people should be able to read & come to know the law which binds them
The evidence is the text. All you have to do is read the Constitution.

Preach, it is so hard to find in-person community as an adult, married or not.
Men largely don’t have friends or community. I really don’t think romance has much to do with it. I have married friends (men and women) who are devastatingly lonely because one person does not cure loneliness

I mean sure I guess but I think it’s more worthwhile to note that we’ve created a really lonely society for everyone. The reason male loneliness is focused on is because the media doesn’t care about women and lonely women aren’t doing newsworthy crimes
I'm starting to wonder how much "the male loneliness epidemic" is just straight and bisexual women identifying low-effort, mean, and incompetent men and choosing not to date, marry, and tolerate them anymore

bad actors like wurman are why i think it is important to place the birthright clause in the full context of section 1 and section 1 in the context of both dred scott and the two decades of antislavery and abolitionist agitation and political thinking that proceeded it

“Their 2 losses weren’t as bad as…”
Should’ve only lost 1 game! Maybe even 0!

The reason why the 12-team playoff superior is that your response to any team left out is "should've won more games, not my problem"

Colts allowing a qb to play on a broken leg needs to be investigated imo. Can’t pretend to care about player safety and allow that

Kind of a crazy stat: Indiana had 4 wins of 50+ points this season. The rest of the College Football Playoff field combined for 6.

People saying conference championship games don’t matter because they don’t influence the playoff selection feel so silly to me. The CFB championship doesn’t matter because it doesn’t influence the spinning of the globe. That’s what you sound like. Nothing matters.

The argument is essentially “who is the 7th best team that didn’t win their conference?”
How ridiculous does that sound?
