    Every time I see a ninja or samurai show up in modern-day fiction, I think about how insane it would be if it was a cowboy or a pirate Imagine a white gang boss being like "My family has many secrets" and then he opens a secret closet revealing his ancestral peg-leg and eyepatch

    I love Super Bowl statistics. (“No team that has failed to convert at least 35% of their 3rd downs has gone on to win” etc.) They are the best introduction to p-hacking that can be found outside major journals.

    A general reminder that when you go to confession a priest cannot repeat or refer to what you said, EVEN TO YOU. If you’ve shared some terrible cross or tragedy but you’re wondering why Father never asks you about it, it’s because he *can’t*. Tell him again outside the sacrament.

    As a citizen, I want Bolton to share his information privately, with a congressional committee. As a spectator, I want him openly deposed by Judge Judy on the Senate floor. 🍿🍿🍿

    See, St. Albert the Great made a robot—a freakin' android, no less. The AI told him most the truths he wrote about. He gave it to St. Thomas Aquinas, but Aquinas decided to destroy the damn thing. Didn't hear THAT in your great booksie circles, did you?

    The claim that “China is the best implementer of Catholic Social Doctrine” is effectively the same as “U.S. constitution is the ideal Thomistic regime”, but applied to a new geopolitical landscape.

    Peterson: “Do you think that you’re worse off than your grandparents” How do people not just buckle down and say “yes”? Of course we are! Does having an iPhone somehow outweigh the wrath of God bearing down on creation for our injustices?

    i tell my students that this is the vampire problem—living forever as a fallen creature would be unbearable miserable—and as fallen creatures, this hellish eternity is the only kind we’re really capable of imagining; v good that Jesus Christ recreates us!

    For the very, very, little it's worth; I find the middle road proposed here compelling and hope judges take notice of it.

    THREAD ON OMANI SUCCESSION. Sultan Qaboos appointed a Prime Minister in 1970-71 (his uncle, Tariq bin Taimur) and married (briefly) in 1976 but did not have issue. It is the sons of Tariq bin Taimur who are often spoken of as possible successors to Sultan Qaboos.

    Perhaps this is an obvious framework, and assuredly reveals my own lack of understanding But it’s the one I operate from; and it’s fair to put ones cards on the table after criticizing another’s position.

    (Of course, the scale of collaborated evil is also relevant; colluding with the localized brutality of a Feudal lord is generally less corrupting than colluding with a genocidal modern superpower.)

    Thus allying with those regimes could only be corruptive of the practical reason of the churches and individuals who collaborated, as it in fact was.

    Collaboration with the Nazis (and Soviets) is an easy case in part because Churches who collaborated had no actual power over those states; even to the limited extent the Jesuits did in China during the Chinese Rites controversy.
