...No. If Philip Roth was allowed to write the same fucking story over and over, about boring, ruthless men on navel-gazing quests for sexual fulfillment — and win prizes for it — and be called one of the greatest writers of his generation — I think we as a culture can afford Beyoncé space to take what is personal to h…

Meanwhile, in Canada, our new Defense Minister is sworn in;

My mentions are a big pile of people who are angry at me for writing this so I’m just going to write it down here: Zola tweeted this insane story for two hours while racking up thousands of RTs on each tweet; it was nationally trending with 30K tweets about it when I woke up, but drawing attention to it on a large and…

My buddy is listed as the father on his son’s birth certificate, yet he and everyone else knows he is not the real father. I imagine it’s uncommon, but not unheard of. I’m not sure the birth certificate is the smoking gun it’s claimed to be.

To do this in the first place makes you kind of a dick. To do this in a public forum to children makes you kind of a legit psychopath.

Reminds me of when the Supreme Court said forced relocation of Native Americans was unconstitutional, so President Andrew Jackson did it anyway, and said of the ruling (almost certainly while shrugging), “Let [the Court] enforce it.”

America is under attack from three organized crime institutions. Republicans, Democrats and law officers.

I’ve never commented on Kinja nor have i felt compelled to. But I can’t help myself; the current state of America is completely fucked. Period. And no one is listening.

Considering the cops arrested Kevin Moore, who filmed the Freddie Gray arrest yesterday, it seems clear they want to make sure there are no witnesses to any of their actions. Their arrest of Kevin Moore was pure intimidation, plain and simple. Cops are pissed right now that 6 of their own are being charged.

Somebody missed the point...

Actually, no. If you look at many, many studies over the year of violence and arrests and killings by officers, this narrative really holds up. You're just willfully ignoring the facts to continue in your own bubble.

Except his killers were charged & indicted, and at trial they'll go away for decades if not be put to death. Unlike these killer cops who straight up walked, usually without a trial. You ignorant dumbass. Think for 2 seconds.

But these are the most egregious examples. Every day there's little bits of this same system exposed. Black people getting longer sentences than whites for the same crime and with the same criminal background (or no backgrouns). Higher arrest rates for blacks even though the same number of whites engaged in the…

Of all of the really stupid comments in the grays that I read because I hate myself, I want to single this one out because I think it's truly a monumental achievement in tone-deafness to imagine that young black men are being more detrimentally affected by sympathetic Deadspin articles than by being MURDERED.
