“Grow a thicker skin” is sage advice here - awww, did the poor little student get mad that someone flipped her off? Nothing wrong with recruiting for a “pro-capitalism, anti-big government” organization. There’s also nothing wrong with saying you think that organization supports neo-fascism.

That is some ELITE consistency.

Reminds me of this story about T.J. McConnell from a little over a year ago:

I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again: Gronk is basically Kevin Malone from the Office, but really good at football.

That list matches up perfectly with 99.9% of all organized religions....

called the Sixers out for keeping Okafor on ice 

It’s near impossible to take a statement like this seriously, knowing the facts of what goes on in this country. If they at least acknowledged that we have a long way to go here, maybe. But, “the United States remains committed to advancing the human rights and fundamental freedoms of all persons” is clearly a lie, in…

“a historic moment for North America and energy independence.”

It is legal in the U.S. (and in many regions, glorified) to operate literal torture camps for LGBTQ children. So.... nah.

Trump has always been a poor man’s LaVar Ball.

(Said this on Facebook, but should repeat it here)

For clarity’s sake, the Asperger’s reference is from the most recent episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm, where Larry David pretended to have Asperger’s to get out of a jam. Hence Larry David Brand Asperger’s. It’s not a dig at Asperger’s. It’s just saying that LaVar Ball…

I normally can’t stand any of the Ballshit, but the shade on Trump is too good to hate on, and I also kind of liked Lonzo’s reaction to and quote about the “fight:” its the NBA, they ain’t really gonna throw hands, and why should I get a tech over it? He’s dead-on right, nobody is gonna actually do anything (mostly…

Was that ruled a fumble? Hard to tell from this angle, but it looks like the ball might have crossed the line before he dropped it.

Oh, I completely understand job requirements, but the Player’s Association didn’t think to allow the NCAA to be skipped? They are pimps and it is depressing. NBA teams can just run linger combines, scrimmages, and tryouts to get the feel of new players if they want them, or sign more 18-year-olds to the G League for a…

stated in a polygraph (that she passed)

I genuinely don’t understand both the “forcibly kissed” and “groped” parts of the Franken story. The photo is goddamn stupid, but doesn’t show contact so isn’t groping - fucking insulting and demeaning, yes, but not sexual assault.

Sessions told Bass that he had not read the report

Yes it is. If you really want to split hairs: 1) this happened before he was a Senator 2) even she says she said “OK” to rehearsing the kiss, it sounds like he used that as an opportunity to actually make a move on her, which is a violation of consent, and gross behavior, but it’s relatively minor in the grand scheme…

The Moore story had 30 sources. They’re both ironclad.

Nah. This is gross, but relatively innocuous. These things exist on a spectrum, I think, and we need to be able to have serious discussion on the egregiousness of any particular offense and circumstance and the appropriate penalty/response. As far as we know, Al Franken isn’t Harvey Weinstein, there’s no reason for…
