Somebody needs to fire the guy that fired Lopetegui, and rehire Lopetegui.

This makes it sound more like a campaign of abuse, and it should be a part of the story. Probably better that people start questioning whether being upfront about ones abusive behavior could be a measured diversionary tactic - a tested play for the abusers playbook. Certainly…

Same can be said for anything, but only personally. If you think only caring about yourself is cool, then that’s something else. Other than that you’re not really saying much. It’s a big deal to a lot of people, and that’s more than enough to make it a big deal for me, and I would argue that this is how people should…

That sounds OK to me. I pretty much just wanted to say that I believe words matter a ton. I also don’t think that it’s a good idea to diminish anything that can be (or is) abused, in general. Also, that we should be extra careful when someone or something is popular. I probably came on a bit strong. Sorry.

I guess it’s nice that you don’t think it’s a big deal (it implies that you have not suffered it), but it is. Words represent meaning, they’re not just sounds. To argue that words don’t matter isn’t too far removed from saying that nothing matters, and if that’s what you thought you wouldn’t be here writing things.…

I would like an answer to people who think like you, say the types of things you’re saying, and see the world like you do.

These are American problems, and your kind of mentality is a significant aspect of them.

Don’t forget the investors (many of them foreign) also want to see some starfish. Also, I imagine nothing makes anti-Americans hard like watching us fuck ourselves.

Fuck “and up”!

Look you, all that really needs to be done is to account for a place’s infrastructure needs to support its workforce, and then to help make it available to them. If there aren’t places for them, then work should be prioritized to make it. It doesn’t necessarily have to be a restructuring of wages, or any…

Right on, and back at you! Extra style points for Spike too!

I didn’t know of Tim Ferriss, but he seems to be worth a look, so thanks!

My favorite site is probably The Atlantic. They provide a good mix of articles. I thought this was interesting recently:

For sure.

Seems to me like all of these sites have been dropping the ball a bit. Shouldn’t the lifehacker article on resolutions offer something to help make them more worthwhile/effective or something? A better article would have been maybe a history of resolutions, the many ways they’ve been practiced, followed by…

I meant that I think that this tradition has potential for all individuals in a society, though maybe not so much in its current popular incarnation. I feel that popular culture seems to prefer the shallow version of most virtues. I think anything that would get a community together around change, and/or a frank…

Sounds a lot like what I’ve started doing, but I still like the idea of new year’s resolutions because there’s a collective will there for positive change. I’m in support of this tradition for society and not just individually. The tradition has become a joke to some people because of the way it is practiced in…

The way I do it is to give myself the whole year to make changes, and not as something that can be failed before the year is up. I also keep a folder on my computer with individual files per resolution, and I organize those in three tiers. I use that folder to remind myself what I wanted to focus on, and at the end of…

There’s already an article on Kotaku that somebody wrote about not liking Okami. How about finding somebody that likes it? Okami is like Zelda, but not at all like Zelda and more like a Japanese folklore epic that feels authentic because it is. It has satisfying combat and beautiful diverse set pieces that really…

Who’s blaming them though? It’s still right to recognize them as part of the problem, even if it’s small. If you want to blame the money, you’re going to have to blame a whole lot of people, including investors (many of which are here in the comments with their stock portfolios), and not least of all those of us who…

You mostly just need to pay attention to cars as extensions of their drivers. I think if you look at the people in cars it’s because you want to. I look at pedestrians because sometimes they act like they don’t care if they live. I also look at people when I’m walking because it could be dangerous not to. Anyway, some…

Someone should tell Bezos and Gates that they’ll only ever need a small fraction of all that money they have. They’re just literally the worst kind of hoarders. Where are the lifehacks for the irresponsibly/needlessly rich? A company should be literally forced by the government to give every single worker a living…

Yeah, I’m pretty sure that should be rated R, not maybe.

The United States is an identity crisis...
