Being even baseline literate in the 2020s is like never working out but slowly becoming the strongest person on earth as everyone around you eats shredded newspaper and chugs poison

Fun fact: It’s easy to keep premiums low when you only have to insure healthy people.
LANKFORD: In 2010, before Obamacare kicked in, the normal healthcare premium was $215.
HUNT: Right. But insurance companies could refuse to cover you for a preexisting condition
LANKFORD: That's true.

Once when we wanted to show the ineffectual dithering of The Good Place Committee, we had one of them say, "There are rules, procedures. This is The Good Place -- we can't just *do stuff.*" We almost didn't include it, because we thought it was a little on the nose.
WELKER: Massie and Khanna say they are looking at options including impeachment and contempt for DOJ officials. Would you support those steps?
KAINE: I think that's premature

It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans.

I’m sorry, but it is disgraceful to be an academic who uses this technology to conduct research. It should be prohibited in all of our scholarly institutions, including universities and journals.

Someone walked into a classroom at Brown in broad daylight and committed a mass shooting that killed 2 people and got away. Now, the suspect has been linked to the murder of the MIT physics professor. No one knows who did it and the FBI is completely incompetent and can't catch this person.
