Head coach Jim Mora is not mincing words when it comes to the structure of UConn football and what it will take to succeed in today’s environment. In his coach’s show on ESPN Radio on Tuesday, Mora said UConn’s conference situation is “a real deterrent” in recruiting, emphatically adding that “not being in a conference is absolutely killing us.” He pointed out that after this season, only three teams will be independent: UConn, UMass, and Notre Dame, adding that Notre Dame is obviously an exception.
“Humans only have one ending. Ideas live forever.” Ruth Handler, Barbie I took myself to the movies. The babies were in bed and there was an 8:30 showing of Greta Gerwig’s Barbie at our local multiplex. Parents have to get creative like this. I went tonight, Chris will go later in the week, and we’ll just have to wait to discuss until then. When I arrived at the theatre, I immediately knew I had made a mistake - I didn’t wear pink.
If you have never seen Jim Jarmusch’s 2016 film “Paterson” (⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐), now would be a very good time to watch it, with the world falling to pieces on a daily basis and your frazzled soul in need of a balm. If you’ve already seen “Paterson,” now would be a good time to watch it again. In fact, it would be entirely within the philosophy of this movie to watch it every day, as part of the cycle of quotidian events that turns like a bus driver’s steering wheel from morning to night.
It doesn’t seem that many people are excited to pay Elon Musk for the privilege of using Twitter. To judge from the shit-posting billionaire’s tweets since paying US$44b to buy the platform, this appears to have come as a surprise and may even suggest a possible flaw within his original business plan. Quite an achievement, since if there was a business plan, it consisted entirely of paying $44 billion for an open sewer – then adding Nazis.

“Rabbit Hole” is a single-topic deep dive column that comes out twice per month for paid subscribers. The free newsletter returns soon.I’m often jealous of people who are not on Twitter. It must be a more satisfying existence. If you weren’t on Twitter, you would not be familiar with an account called “Room Rater,” which goes by the handle @RateMySkypeRoom. The account is pretty self-explanatory - it rates the backgrounds of cable news talking heads.
For years, I’ve noticed a trend of “hornyposting” increasingly moving away from usual perversion, and towards an almost exclusively degrading and masochistic element of horniness which I didn’t think was common at all. But it’s probably a bit of a self-fulfilling prophecy. People will think these sorts of slightly masochistic sexual desires are actually normal, while typical perversion is put back on the shelf due to it objectifying women or relying too much on the (let’s be honest) humiliation of women or just the other party in general.
Welcome back to my blind coverage of the new Netflix anime Scott Pilgrim Takes Off, a series based off of some of the most influential comic books and movies of my life. What I’m doing here is giving my thoughts, analysis, and predictions after each episode before moving onto the next, so what follows is based solely on the first three episodes (and will contain spoilers for all three, but for nothing that comes after).
“This thesis is an attempt to show that the aristocratic regime, and aristocratic morality, is the origin of the idea of nature; that, at the point at which a historical aristocracy starts to decline, its defenders, in abstracting and radicalizing the case for aristocracy in the face of its critics, come upon the teaching of nature and the standard of nature in politics. It is precisely this teaching of nature, so corrosive of all convention and all morality, that is politically explosive, and that explains the deep connection between philosophy—the criminal study of nature outside the city and outside the myths and pieties of the regime—and tyranny–the criminal and feral regime of rule outside and above all law and all convention.
