I would argue that lack of job security =/= cushy. Low wages for doing a difficult job =/= cushy. Spending years and a shit-ton of money for a PhD (many, many, many PhDs can only find work as adjuncts) and not being able to secure a tenure-track position =/= cushy. I am an adjunct but thankfully it’s not my only job.…

Cutting back your protein is pretty silly. You know how many calories are in 3 ounces of chicken breast? Like 120. So just eat your 6 ounces. You’ll be better off than if you cut it out. And do some resistance training!

I don’t know if I would agree with Josh that it’s less about the original game and more about being that age again. For me personally, nothing’s really changed in that regard, as I’ve always been an extremely busy person. My friends and I were always a hardcore group of PvPers for whom PvE content was just icing on…

The point is to remind people not to buy into hackneyed bullshit statistics by people claiming to be statisticians who did it all wrong from start to finish; it’s in defense of using statistics correctly and critical thinking, not the Patriots.

^ exactly. The hierarchy of importance is calories, then macronutrient breakdown, then timing. In practice, IF/timing only really helps if it helps adhere to the first two.

The Yankees plan to commemorate the retiring of captaincy with a giant number 2 on the infield grass, Alex Rodriguez.

Julien Edelman bailed rather quickly as he grew tired of being asked to give some insight into the evolution of the market economy in the southern colonies.

1st half, deflated footballs: 1 TD, 1 INT

Browns fan here. Can we just talk about the draft instead?

If deflating the balls is advantageous, how would it confer an advantage to one team and no the other?

I'm biased because I live here / am from here...

The power your computer consumed while you typed this comment could have provided light for 13 orphans to learn to read. You monster.

Domestic violence does NOT have to be a pattern. It counts even if it is "just the one time".

Wow, did you develop Android L? What additional insights can you give us?

How many embarrassing typos does it take four you guys two start proof-reading before you post?

For sheer balls, this one still astonishes.

You can't really say this is because she's a woman. It's entirely possible the culture is "junior professors don't speak up" - but there's nothing to suggest it's because she's a woman.

I agree with you. As a fledgling academic and someone married to an academic, there were several requests made that would have given a liberal arts college serious pause. Negotiation of starting year and 3 preps being the biggest two that come to mind. Most of the commenters here are unable to make that distinction,…

You mad, bro?

I actually have ultrafine tweezers in my lab that are amazing at grabbing really small things. The only problem is they're also ridiculously sharp, and I've torn quite a few gloves on them. I don't imagine it would end well if you gave those things to the average person and told them to use it on their face.
