I take it you don't have kids.

I’m too busy earning a living during the day and spending my evenings spending hours with my kids trying to undo the bullshit that public school is drumming into them. I genuinely wish that we valued teachers more, especially monetarily, so that talented people would see it as a viable career rather than people who,

Don't worry, he'll do something profoundly dirtbaggy soon, probably before the week is out.

And to your second point, I think it’s tremendously important to help adolescents realize their potential. Most teachers not only fail to do that, but actively negate creativity, awareness, and critical thinking.

Like most successful people I know, I am where I am in spite, not because, of the vast majority of teachers I had growing up.

Those who can, do. Those who can’t, teach.

Is it redemption, though? I thoroughly enjoyed El Camino, but I didn’t see it as a redemption story so much as the conclusion of the escape of Breaking Bad’s most sympathetic character. Nothing Jesse does really “redeems” him, he just sort of gets away, and gets a little revenge along the way.

If the Dolphins go 0-16, they’ll still be regarded as no worse than the 3rd-worst team of all time, simply because they tanked. They aren’t trying to be good, so they don’t get extra credit for being historically bad because they couldn’t not be. (Note: all that changes if somehow they actually play Alabama and the

You know how passionate people get about instant replay? I’m that way about in-helmet headsets. I don’t even like plays being signaled in from the sidelines. And don’t get me started on Chip Kelly’s rebuses.

Are the folks at Deadspin aware of this? I feel like this is something they would like to know about.

Dude, don’t kink-shame.

I’ve been watching this for like three minutes and I laugh every single time.

As a general rule, cops aren’t the sharpest marbles.

Sincere question: Did you say anything like, “Excuse me, sorry, just need to grab my bag,” and then get snarked at? Or did you just swim upstream? Because that makes ALL the difference in who’s right and who’s wrong here.

I took the Saints in my knockout pool this week. I saw they’re playing the Jaguars and, even though they’re a 1.5 point dog, I figured this was as much of a can’t miss as anybody who’s left for me to pick. Am I a putz? (I mean for that specifically, not in general. I know I am in general.)

No I did not. I fucking did not. Find where I did. You can't. Because I fucking didn't.

*sigh*

Oh no doubt. Nixon begat Reagan, who begat Bush the Elder, who begat Bush the Lesser, who begat Trump, who won’t beget anyone because there’s not going to be a fucking country left.
