A horrible call in favor of home team who converts to a TD is some bullshit
(This is one of the reasons I stopped watching football. I know when I am being scammed.)
Ain’t called nothing all game and suddenly they call blinking.
They didn’t deserve that touchdown. I now hope Cincinnati runs that ball run up their nasal cavity.

More seriously let me say something. I theorized years ago that info societies threatened masculinity by attaching economic value to femininities characteristics, like social ties and discourse.
Clawing that back is how we get to a place where feminized qualities like basic care work is so passionately diminished that many people will burn down public health to avoid it.

As a woman I have done more strategy than this just to decide how many tampons I should pack for a road trip. This is not a cross to bear.
It’s wild that men think that’s a lot of planning.

One of my great joys as a careful writer is having someone on the internet not read what I wrote and then argue with me about what I either did say (and better) or didn’t say (because doing so was better).
What I’m saying is I hope all of them get diarrhea.
A close second is being a careful writer for well-documented reasons and having people who can live freely by being sloppy get mad that I said what I meant but didn’t scream and holler invective while doing so. See same wish.

I play Betty Davis about once a week. I just added her to an essay not two days ago! A beacon for strange Black girls who just don’t want to be tied down. What an icon. It seems she, too, has said enough of this world.
I just wanted to put on some fishnets and do whatever the hell I wanted. My whole life goal.
They Say I’m Different is perhaps the best known and the one in regular rotation over here. But this is a close second

A few things about this week's NL, featuring more of my convo with @anildash and work by @asociologist

Dan put me on to folk economics concept a couple years ago. I skimmed that econ literature at the time. This time I caught something in the older canonical stuff on folk economics. It is strongly influenced by evolutionary psychology literature.
That's always a red flag for me. Not necessarily to discount the literature but to read around it more. Rubin (2003), for example, cites Steven Pinker a lot. Important to note that "folk" knowledges isn't unique to economics.

There is something about people who play “jackass style pranks” on people. I don’t like them and I’ve yet to be proven wrong.
Those pranks are on the edge of “abused animals” which we accept as a anti-social warning sign of one of the -pathys. So of course the Jerrys enjoyed playing pranks. They’re pathys.
