Despite what they'll tell you, Americans have a long tradition of spiritual wisdom and meditative history. But from the otherworldly cowboy to the wise mechanic- we're at risk of losing it all. Find out more in my latest
You Can See Everything may not reach any conclusion about Elizabeth Holmes.
But it does come to the conclusion that documentaries are an inherently dishonest format that masquerades as truth while being just as much a construction as any other movie. And that's better.

This might be the dumbest post I've seen on Twitter this weekend. (regarding CFB -- no warranties expressed or implied on the rest of Twitter).
Just a three minute look at @TexasTechFB under Coach McGuire shows:
1) He's won 8+ games every season since being hired. In the 15 years prior Tech's win totals ranged from 4 to 7 games.
2) He's had a winning Big 12 record every year since he took over (including the last two years Oklahoma and Texas were in the league).
Prior to his arrival in 2022, Tech hadn't had a winning Big 12 conference record since 2009.
3) High School recruiting at Tech has improved from #48 when McGuire took over to #10 currently. That improvement has been incremental each year (43, 25, 18, 10).
Tech's last Top 25 class came under Tommy Tuberville in 2010, and prior to that they had two Top 25 classes under Mike Leach.
So in four years McGuire has had more Top 25 classes than the last 25 years combined. And that would probably go back to 50 years if I had time to do that much research.
There's no doubt that the NIL era has helped Tech, as they have more resources than any other Big 12 program and most of the P4, including most in the SEC and Big Ten.
But the improvements in record and recruiting came before NIL and Cody Campbell's donations started.
The grass is always greener with fans, and these asinine "fire the coach!" posts are also coming from fan bases at Georgia, Alabama, and every other school that has suffered an upset loss.
That's why fans aren't in charge of hiring and firing. If they were every school would be looking for a new coach every season.
Kind of crazy to say "males no matter how ugly are accepted and hyped up" about a guy with a clear deformity.
That's like saying "why are people making fun of me for being unathletic but not Wheelchair Mary?"
I mean there kind of is someone in charge of making sure my grocery store has milk tomorrow but I know what you mean.
I want to make fun of this. But I know I liked some tweets predicting this would be about Palestine or some other Ben and Jerry's style bullshit.
They got me.
This is what TV is supposed to be.
My wife watched Grey’s Anatomy for a bit and here are some REAL plot lines:
-A man has extra arms growing out of his back he calls “Angel Wings” and it’s implied he can hover with them
-A dead dad possesses his son to perform surgery on his sister. The son’s not a surgeon he’s a janitor who just broke into the OR
-A man fell 40,000 ft from a plane and came in with ONE BROKEN LEG
-A man gets crushed in a trash compactor so they do surgery at the dump using trash as tools. They hum the Fat Albert theme during
-The hospital’s swamped because “a guy dressed as a clown blew up a hospital downtown” implying they’re in Gotham City and the Joker is real
-A burglar uses explosives to blow open a safe, the door then imbeds in his chest and they need a locksmith to open it so they can perform surgery
-Jared from Subway is a recurring character
-The main doctor has a migraine so bad she can freeze time. It’s not played metaphorically, she’s physically moving things
I'm never on the side of taking pictures of strangers in public but acting like it's normal for a grown adult to be sobbing because their seat is in a different row than her husband's is...something.

The internet told them Europe was a social paradise. Turns out the trains are awful, the health care isn’t free, and people can be really mean. buff.ly/5cLtnha
Noticed the security guys at the office standing around in hi vis vests so went down to grab a fresh coffee before the fire drill started.
On my way back shutter doors started closing off the stairwell and had to hit an Indiana Jones slide to survive imaginary fire.
"Now remember Jalen this is very serious, even just falling asleep could kill you.
So take these amphetamines to stay awake until kickoff."
#Eagles QB Jalen Hurts, who is out for the season after several blood clots were revealed in his lungs, has been undergoing tests for days.
Before the London game, Hurts was in the hospital until 4 am and did not sleep because sleep was a risk. He played without having slept.
I keep seeing people saying "objects (or buildings) aren't comparable to lives stolen."
Super common refrain. But my question is WHAT LIVES?? Isn't the line on these protests that they're over classroom size?
