how can the picture on the left be from a healthy person, healthy people don't have their lungs outside their body

the lungs themselves are healthy, so healthy that they were able to break free of their bone and flesh prison and pose for a photograph before getting on with the rest of their lives

The best thing is when you are in a long line and Boomer wants to pay by paper check.

the best was when i worked as a cashier they changed our checking processing to just scan the routing and account numbers and return the check to the customer so there was absolutely no reason to ever fill out the check, but it was impossible to explain that to any customer who would use a check in the first place

Like 95% of bad cspam opinions can be explained by "11/9 was a traumatic event and the way they cop with it is by convincing themselves it didn't actually matter." "Nothing matters" is not a lamentation, it is a security blanket.

11/9 was the most obvious symptom of the rotted american capitalist system. it's like if you had metastasizing cancer, 11/9 is a big loving tumor growing out of your neck. in an alternate world where the tumor never rises to the surface, you're still hosed

Baseball is a very boring sport imo and for some reason every time they discuss this on NPR one of the hosts makes sure to mention how much they love Baseball and how much it means to them and maybe some sentimental memory in the grandstands and the black sox scandal or something which they don't do when they're discussing any of the other 3 major sports + soccer

baseball is a sport made for radio. much like how modern football and basketball have built in tv timeouts and downtime between plays to show tv ads, baseball's entire play structure is built to allow a radio broadcaster an equal amount of time to call a play, have some banter, and read ad copy

they did the right thing here and did it the right way, good for Edsall.

there’s just no loving way football of any type can be played safely right now. conferences releasing schedules right now are in fantasy land and I’ll be shocked if any team plays more than one game this season.

tbf what uconn football does on the gridiron is hardly competitive, even when they do show up to games
