I’m glad folks are holding his feet to the fire, but Christ we could’ve done this at confirmation, could’ve done this at any point in the past 7 months with the cuts at HHS and outright political pressure on researchers both internal and external

If this isn’t the most stereotypical American state of being. Proudly ignorant in a way that is truly breathtaking.

All these cats would whoop my ass on my best day, clearly, but it’s still fascinating seeing the skill difference with big time professionals. Very few combos, hunting for one big shot, staying to one rhythm, little lateral movement or slick head movement…they’d still beat your ass, of course

It was never actually in the cards for me, but videos like this remind me that I’ve never liked fighting in the way these dudes like fighting…everyone loves winning, clearly, but these cats also love *fighting*.

He got punished a little early, but ole buddy shows some great jujitsu here in this first fight youtu.be/n7fUHY1rzcE?...

I’ve stumbled into Korean vale tudo YouTube and I’m memorized and a little appalled…seeing cats throwing headbutts and throwing each other on concrete is WILD

This piece is a caricature of the “centrist” project in the US in that it cannot forcefully attack the rights clear authoritarianism without also critiquing the left. It still lands on the idea that this current turn is somehow shared. Just a bankrupt view. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...
