I have been asked several times what “classics” are actually crap. Here is a list (by no means exhaustive): Jane Eyre Wuthering Heights Great Expectations David Copperfield Orlando Ulysses Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man Finnegans Wake Atonement The Stranger

They walk among us: People who are just now figuring out that conferences are all about money instead of good football.

Zach Snyder failed with regards to the DC cinematic universe. James Gunn failed with regards to the DC cinematic universe. These are not mutually exclusive points. There’s also not much to be gained by arguing about who failed worse. The fans are the big losers in either case

I can completely understand people hating Notre Dame. I cannot understand anyone cheering for Miami under any circumstances.

A lot of Notre Dame fans are too young to remember the 1989 and 1993 seasons. Long story short, head-to-head only matters when it benefits someone else.

Miami fans complaining about ND fans is an unexpected bit of hilarity after last night.

Speaking as an alum, I would never send my kids to ND. You’re basically paying to support modernism and the wholesale murder of faith there.
If I had to choose a place for my daughters to go it would be Notre Dame. It has a very healthy cultural atmosphere in addition to being a great school.

New 52 expuso una incómoda verdad del cómic americano, no hay tantos escritores y editores modernos talentosos. Al tener que crear una nueva mitología, los nuevos escritores de turno debían demostrar su talento y, bueno, por algo fue tan new 52
The new 52 fucked up alot of characters and concepts, but their Superman will always have a special place in my heart. I like how edgy and brash he was! Also I loved the costume, very sleek

Let’s recall that there are still good people at Notre Dame. There are not now, nor have there ever been, good people at Miami, which is simply a criminal organization masquerading as a football team.

The reason most boys don’t read books is because the reading they are given in school is crap. Most books regarded as “classics” are crap. Outside of a couple of niche fantasy titles, most of what is published these days is crap. As to why women read so much crap, I don’t know.

"Gay financier holds secret meeting with Freemasons to undermine the Catholic Church" nobody in this situation is beating the allegations
NEW: In leaked recordings, Peter Thiel argued that Nashville should be a moral alternative to Pope Leo XIV and the Catholic Church, which he called “a dubious ally” against a hypothetical future Antichrist Democratic president. “America is the last and final form of the Roman Empire,” Thiel told a closed-door crowd in Nashville’s Masonic Temple. “There is no successor.” He has attacked Pope Leo XIV at least four times this year, once calling him “a useful idiot for the CCP.” thelettersfromleo.com/p/the-…

It’s funny how “Make your own AI agents” has supplanted the generic “Passive income” claims to instant wealth.

Seems like a good day to drag this one from out of the archives.
It may come as a surprise to many, but you’re likely not an expert on anything.

My prediction for both sides: They have forgotten nothing, and they have learned nothing.

One of the funniest thing about a potential blue wave is the idea of all the folks who have continued to tell me to “trust the plan” trying to find a way to explain how it happened.

I’m old enough to remember when people claimed that comics had basically always been fascist.

Many of the degree fields below this line are the only hope for the restoration of real culture. STEM is not going to get the job done.
Abolish every degree field below this line.
