I love that he apparently got the job because he looked so pathetic that children truly believed he would be unable to solve puzzles created by a cartoon dog without their assistance.

Kids are more drawn to him because he treated them like they are crucial: he engaged them as equals if not better-thans. He treated them like their input mattered which was rare at the time for tv shows (BC predates most other interactive shows and shows that feature other kids like Dora, Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, Little Einsteins, Backyardigans, etc.) and often didn't reflect kids' relationships with other adults in their lives. Kids want to be treated as equals and Steve appealed to that. Not all media conforms to your perception that all unconventional-looking middle aged dudes are pathetic need you to fix them, the point he's actually making is much more interesting.

biden 2024 - making things work

This is why I honestly feel like Biden was the best possible choice in a shitty situation, even with his age and potential health issues. Because if nothing else, he is NOT REACTIONARY. He is methodical and dedicated. Do I wish he acted a little faster and with more of an eye towards progressive policies? Obviously yes. But given the choices, and given everything else that's happened, Biden has absolutely made the best of a bad situation. Sometimes you don't need a hero, you need a fucking repairman to come and just make it work until it can be fixed. And he's a damn good repairman.

Okay, I’ll give him the W for this one.

“Listen - I’m a lesbian who looks like a man, and that’s on purpose. So it’s not like I’m trying to look some other way and I’m messing up. This is it. This is actually the way I want to look…and the whole “OH MY GOD you look like a dude! I know how you could be pretty!” - guess what? I don’t want to.”

You cannot separate Linus Ullmark and Jeremy Swayman.  They’re a bonded pair.

Linus has proven he can score. Let’s get rid of a few forwards to free up cap space & have a goalie triple threat with Sway/Ullmark/Bussi
