When CCST filed its lawsuit earlier this year on behalf of more than 70 Texas institutions, it said the Education Department’s rule was created “with a thumb on the scale to maximize the number of approved claims and, ultimately, further the administration’s loan forgiveness agenda.”

Yes.

"Uh-oh, someone's making a policy I don't like, and I'm not sure I can sway enough voters to block it. Better break the policymaking process entirely."

I've done that a handful of times. It's only happened when I've been on full mental autopilot and totally distracted with other things.

The more frustrating part about it is that my acquaintances notice and figure if I slip up, then it's more okay if they slip up from time to time too. And yeah, I try not to give people too much grief if they make mistakes, but, like... Please try not to make mistakes.

Can you at least unlock it later with experience points or in-game currency?

Good question. I don't have a good answer. I just wanted to pause for a moment and reflect on how concisely this question captures the moment we're living in.

Calling everyone "man", "bro", "you guys"

Somehow, just about every time elite American men look at virtually any sociological change, they see a crisis of masculinity.

When will they add the option to sort processes by "reason your fans are blowing"

One of my acquaintances started a fairly large group text thread recently. Somewhere along the way someone said, "Who's the android user in here ruining everything?" I never said anything in the thread, so I felt like I was in the corner of a crowded room wearing a disguise about to be exposed.

I was also pretty annoyed. Like, what's it matter? Texts are for text. Text works fine.

It'll be like watching a bunch of CPU players fight each other in Smash Bros. That's entertaining, right?

Sometimes I get a glimpse of what experiencing the Internet without an ad blocker looks like today and it kinda blows me away.

Every time I try to spread butter or jam over a slice of toasted bread using a steak knife instead of a butter knife, I never seem to be able to spread the topping that evenly.

I know I could figure this out if I just used my brain or paid slightly more attention while buttering the toast. But if I went to that effort, I could have just as easily gotten out a proper butter knife and made the whole issue moot, and I'm definitely too lazy to do that, so here we are.

Slight caveat: the steak knife in question is non-serrated, if that makes any difference.
