As someone who is at 5 years with no family contact (because my family are the most miserable people I’ve ever met), I say good for him. You can’t choose your family, but you can choose who you allow in your life. If those choices mean he’s happy, then more power to him.

yeah, that’s the real problem with the game bro

So much this. I saw a parent post on a site:

Considering the litany of absolute tomfuckery in the NFL, I would say this is a lukewarm take, at most.

I wish they wouldn’t show guys crying when they get hurt. It reminds me that these are real people with painful injuries and not just pawns for my fantasy team. Total buzzkill.

Not to go all HOT TAKE-Y on everyone, but seriously, fuck this sport. Watch the NBA, where the talent/athleticism is not only at an all time high, but the star players actually are able to play most of the games

Well that’s a relief! I thought racism still existed!

Do you see how this response is exactly what Gelman was talking about? Instead of looking inward to examine your own biases, you presume someone is “talking down” to you when he’s discussing his own experience and asking for a greater variety of voices to work with and watch.

Because you’re asking a very different thing when you say ‘give up your bonus.’ That’s a zero sum game: in order for you to get ahead, someone else has to lose.

I about lost my marbles when TYT had a video the other day being all mad that Clinton supporters were talking about sexism hurting her because in their heads no liberal is sexist. Of course some liberals are sexist!

He’s also extraordinarily Islamophobic. Basically agrees with the extreme right-wing that it’s a “religion of violence.”

Ugh yes, my liberal white dude brother is always telling me how much of a genius Bill Maher is and I tell him that I’ve always gotten a sexist vibe from him and am not a big fan.

Fuck Bill Maher, how’s that for PC, bud? Pardon, I’m going to go tweet him for being an unrelenting dickshit.

Solid combination of dad humor and actual dad political views here.

Two thoughts come to mind:

What I think is complicated, I admit, and not entirely clear even to me.

Start with Bill Maher who thinks that the reason that we lost the election is because liberals are too politically correct. Note that white straight men are never subjected to hate speech, so how the hell should he know about the shit that the rest of us go through?

See, driving while White is also dangerous!

Swansea currently sit 2nd to last in the standings with only 5 points in 11 games, 6 points and a tie-breaker from safety. Bob Bradley is currently 0-1-3 (1 draw) in 4 games in charge. The fans are in open revolt against the US ownership. I don’t think the Swansea experiment is going to work out, unfortunately.

Perp walk = leadership qualities
