I'm just a salty Thunder fan, but...Jalen Brunson. Holy cow. What a run. Man just punched his ticket to Springfield.

Start building the Jalen Brunson statue. Brunson took a $100M pay cut to make this possible. This is the greatest championship run many of us will ever see.

Me: So I always thought Cookie Monster was an adult so it was weird for him to hang out with Elmo but he's actually a child! You meet his mom in one episode and she's like a bigger cookie monster but with hair and--
My husband: I'm sorry, we cannot talk about this on date night

It would be hard to dream up a system better designed to inhibit child bearing than today’s academia. Endless grad school, pre and postdoc, no location stability, quantity not quality evaluation, etc. yet they wonder why so few women do it
Yeah, I definitely would have had more time & mental energy to write more papers if I didn’t have kids. It’s brutal. Now I’m “penalized” forever with a shorter CV and three amazing human beings I love with all my heart.

Applebaum: What binds Russia, China, Iran and North Korea is not religion or ideology.
China is communist, Russia nationalist, Iran theocratic. What binds them is fear of liberal language: rights, rule of law, separation of powers and independent courts. 1/

“At a time when the loudest voices of our political and educational disorder often crowd out the most important sources of learning, Civitas believes we serve the common good best by returning to first principles — clarifying who we are as a constitutional people, and how we might build a future worthy of our inheritance.”

The advice I received on publishing my first semester of grad school was to use publications to either join a school of thought or to pick a fight.
Advice to survive in academia is more or less the same as surviving prison: kick someone’s —- or become someone’s ——.

11 years ago today I ran into Weird Al in my hotel lobby. I said "you're Weird Al!" and he said "Yes?" I told him I'd loved his music since I was a kid and he said thanks, took the picture, walked away, then came back to shake my hand. Class act.

Genuinely funny that every Knicks fan that has been watching these playoffs thought “okay they cut it to 15 we might have something here” at 0.5% win probability

With 8 minutes left in the game, the Spurs had a huge lead and a 99.5% chance of winning, according to ESPN analytics.
The Knicks had just a 0.5% chance of winning -- before ultimately winning

I've spent the last 12 hours thinking about it and this is the most improbable playoff victory I have ever seen. like, the only people who believed this was possible were playing for the Knicks.
OG ANUNOBY WITH THE PUTBACK.
KNICKS COMPLETE THE 29-PT COMEBACK FOR THE WIN.
LARGEST COMEBACK IN NBA FINALS HISTORY 🤯
