On the topic of solving problems, I have one for the Deadspin commentariat.

Cheese made from raw milk is significantly safer than raw milk.

According to my friend who studies human intestinal microbes for a living.

I showed my office mate that story and his response was “I’ve eaten cheeses made with raw milk and I was fine.”

Johnny has been given every opportunity to correct his habits. Its difficult to feel bad for someone who refuses to do anything to make their lives better. If he hasn’t been able to get his act together, there’s not much hope for him right now. He’s put himself on this path to failure.

Countdown to his Grindr profile being discovered in 3, 2...

The GOP process last night was perfect. Trump won handily, but Cruz, Rubio, and even Kasich, did well enough to justify each of them staying in the race.

Counter counterpoint: They hate him for the same reason pharma companies hate Martin Shkreli (or as Ghostface called him, the Michael Jackson nose kid). It’s because he’s saying out loud what’s always been implicit and repugnant, and they can’t let the general mainstream know that’s what they’ve always been thinking.

The voters have chosen exactly what each slickly packaged general-election Republican candidate has winked and dog-whistled and hinted he secretly was in my whole entire goddamn lifetime. They’ve chosen what apparatchiks like William Kristol have spent the past 25 years pretending Ronald Reagan wasn’t.

My boyfriend. And he gets testy when I respond to “Rogan had a scientist on who said...” with “define scientist.”

Union...mostly. (Not that punching NEVER happens, but not super common for this kind of rapid escalation). Rugby League...somewhat less so.

Yes, one of the teams is from Leeds. But the two players involved are both Strayans.

Pending an improbable exoneration from the internal peer review, everything [Arnold] had worked for is now gone, likely never to be recovered, ever again. Recovery, if there is any, appears to be something deserved only by the Twitter critics of a freelancer whose future writing career will apparently be, like the way

Sure, it sounds like SB Nation has put its longform program on hiatus and, for all intents and purposes, actually enacted this plan, but maybe that’s what longform wanted.

Sure, but the—or, well, a—problem with this story is that it doesn’t raise any actual factual dispute that might challenge Holtzclaw’s conviction. It just treats the conviction as one among a competing set of essentially equal narratives, as if it’s just, like, the court’s opinion, man, and everybody’s entitled to

wait, what is the barrier being placed in front of you here?

When you've had the kind of drought the Skins have had, there comes a time that even your Cousins start to look pretty good.

It’s not my place to say if it does that or not. I haven’t read the literature
