Pope Leo XIV was presented with two lambs on Wednesday morning on the liturgical feast of St. Agnes (Jan. 21), in keeping with an ancient tradition of the Church in Rome. The lambs were subsequently blessed in the Mausoleum of Saint Constantina, a rite that usually takes place…
I'm not gonna lie I was/am still incredibly confused by the initial marketing suggesting if you had something like YouTube TV that you'd have this free
A new class action lawsuit filed Thursday accuses WWE and ESPN of deceptive marketing practices with the move of PLEs to ESPN’s direct-to-consumer streaming service. The complaint takes issue with how some fans who already get ESPN channels through cable or other providers were…
Books I read in 2025. Didn’t get a lot of leisure reading in because I was busy reading for my MSc in History, so I read a lot on the GW Bush admin and invasion of Iraq. Glad I managed to squeeze these into the rotation - and hopefully more in 2026.
Props to the 90s kids and 3eb fan running social media for the dictionary.
'Goodbye' is an alteration of "God be with you" and its first known use was in 1575. God be with you, 2025 🫡
Umberto Eco, who owned 50,000 books, had this to say about home libraries: “It is foolish to think that you have to read all the books you buy, as it is foolish to criticize those who buy more books than they will ever be able to read. It would be like saying that you should use…
I’d like to share some advice I give to my students–especially those of my students who aspire to academic careers. Although it's natural and, in itself, good to desire and even seek affirmation, do not fall in love with applause. It is a drug. When you get some of it, you crave…
You can tell what a society cares about by what it invests its time, effort, and money in, and I sure wish we cared about improving literacy as much as we care about youth sports.
Overheard on the Metro: "Once we dreamed of the future. Now we dream of the 90s."
John Cena graduated high school, played college football, became a bodybuilder, joined the WWE, became the top star in the company, went to Hollywood, and retired from WWE after a 23-year career… all before the Cowboys made it back to an NFC Championship Game. #ThankYouCena
And this is why handwritten notes are important.
Surprisingly large correlations between fine motor skills and academic outcomes. Biggest correlate is ability using a pencil/pen. True for adults too. Humans are embodied creatures. Our hands help our brains to learn.
This 💯
The U.S. should have British-style exams. Serious, content-based tests would give us a real curriculum, a clear goal for students, and actual accountability for what gets taught. Instead, we have a fog of standards, feel-good grading, and diplomas that don’t mean what they…
RIP to the one and only Larry 🖤 Sending love to @CMPunk & @TheAJMendez wwe.com/article/cm-pun…
I agree with this, just as I don’t think one should wear slippers and pajamas in public at all, barring some emergency. You hear older folks tell you all the time how people used to get dressed up to fly back in the 60s-80s. Different, better times. Okay. Here’s the problem:…
Controversial opinion on Student Loans: Yes, if you took the loan, you should have to pay it back. However, it should be at 0% interest. Or maybe a one-time, flat-interest fee of something like 5% on the entire loan. None of this year-over-year compounding nonsense.
I have a vivid memory of my dad, who worked for America Airlines, taking me to LaGuardia airport where I met a friend of his who was mopping one of the hangars. I must have said something rude or dismissive, because on the way home he reamed me out, telling me *never* to…
School should teach you to be a creator...a builder. Not a worker.
Peter Thiel: If you graduated in 1970 with no student debt, compare that to the millennial experience: too many people go to college, they don’t learn anything, and they end up with incredibly burdensome debt. Student debt is a version of this generational conflict that I’ve…
I have been radicalized by college costs. Half of people shouldn’t have to go to college to get the job they have, and for the ones who do go it should cost half or a quarter the price that it does. Educational debt really is a millstone around the neck and it makes young…
Peter Thiel today: “Boomers are strangely uncurious about how the world is not really working for their kids. It’s always hard to know how much bad faith there is or how bad the actors are. I think it’s odd that people thought it was odd that I was complaining about student debt…
