Cal winning the ACC is what we deserve, and I'm here for it.

I'm looking forward to the scenario of Cal winning the ACC this year, and thus producing a second consecutive post-PAC12 reject playoff team.

‘Booty’ and ‘butt’ are synonyms. ‘Call’ and ‘dial’ are synonyms. But, a ‘booty call’ and a ‘butt dial’ are VERY different things.

How do they define a "George Floyd"? Does it involve a societal awakening that those designated to provide protection in fact do harm to those visibly different? An assumed ally is in fact an enemy? Intentional harm to a group performed out of joy and malice?

The issue isn't the edgelording, it's how you responded when people got offended. Did you try to repair damage or dig in. That's the tell, digging in indicates the problems. Damage repair shows you tested boundaries but care.

A careful study of every populist episode since 1900 finds catastrophic consequences, which play out slowly. On average, incomes fall behind by nearly 15% over 15 years. For the U.S., this is a cost of about $13k per person per year. Over a lifetime, that's million bucks.
