Almost no one should wear a white t-shirt as anything other than an undershirt. James Dean is an exception.

Peeking in now and then, it seems the site formerly known as Twitter has become quite the cesspool.

i just read something about grief from C.S. Lewis and his book, “A Grief Observed”

basically, when someone you love dies, it isn’t just them that you miss, but the parts of yourself that person brought out of you that can never be brought out again.

i feel that with my dad.

“Belief polarization” is driving the shutdown more than political disagreement, according to a philosopher. Like-minded people become more extreme versions of themselves, not because of evidence, but because they want to fit in with their peers. buff.ly/x6p1lcq
Blame the shutdown on citizens who prefer politicians to vanquish their opponents rather than to work for the common good
Politicians get blamed for government shutdowns. But does the fault lie also with citizens, who are more invested in punishing partisan rivals than in demanding competent government?

Amazon announced 14,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $40M last year.

UPS announced 48,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $24M last year.

Intel announced 20,000 layoffs. Its new CEO's pay package is valued at nearly $69M.

This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.
