If Tennessee beats Texas tomorrow I’m going to finish this bottle of bourbon. If Tennessee loses to Texas tomorrow I’m going to finish this bottle of bourbon.
The illusion of choice.

There was once a bride from Nantucket
Who was bailing out rain by the bucket
Eventually she said, “Nope”
“I’d rather elope”
And the priest just said, “Fuck it”
A reliable source at one of the island’s churches tells the Current there are at least 34 weddings scheduled on the island this weekend 😬

I’ve started giving my students cotton balls at the start of class for them to put in their ears, because I do a lot of screaming and it dulls down my voice and the screaming.

That's not what Trende's saying.
His point is that you can say nothing.
You can say: "I believe that your religion is wrong and mine is right."
Or you can make a conscious choice to say: "You are a demon-worshipping affront to God," & then act surprised that it offended people
Why are people continually shocked at the existence of sincere religious differences? Jews think Jesus was a liar, Christians think Ganesh is a demon, Scientologists think all other religions are evil tricks by alien ghosts or whatever. Not all religions are universalist John Lennon slop. Sometimes people really mean it, which necessarily means thinking people of other religions (or none) are deeply, profoundly wrong about the most important issue in existence. Saying this should be unacceptable is tantamount to saying religious sincerity should be unacceptable.
