No, it’s not because nobody makes ’em like they used to; it’s because, as is the case with pretty much everything in life, we’re still beholden to the things that shaped us as teenagers.

Politically, it makes no difference. Paying people off, divorcing his wives, using “locker room talk,” surprising young women in their dressing rooms, attacking minorities, calling immigrants murderers and rapists — these are just things that DT does. If you voted for him, you knew this, and if you voted against him,…
I think they had too little confidence in their own judgment to forgo picking up the highest-rated player still available in the draft. To them, it was too big a risk that their choice would flop and Ball would prosper.
Like everybody else in the league, the Bills could have picked up SuperBowl veteran Colin Kaepernick for cheap. But no, as Dave Zirin says, “The NFL Chose to Tank Its Season Rather Than Sign Colin Kaepernick.” Instead, we got to watch Tyrod Taylor struggle to move the ball and Nathan Peterman struggle to hold onto the…
See Dave Zirin’s “The NFL Chose to Tank Its Season Rather Than Sign Colin Kaepernick: Billion dollar teams choosing to fail rather than sign Kaepernick is a scandal for reasons beyond wins and losses.” CK is no superman (ha ha), but is he worth less than Nathan Peterman, for Pete’s sake?
My mother has had an iPhone for several years. She still can’t retrieve her voicemail reliably. She doesn’t know the difference between texting and e-mail. (She’s never sent me either one.) I can “teach” her things, but she doesn’t have anything approaching an intuitive understanding of the technology, and she does…
It’s very possible that this is actually CDC upper management trying to preserve projects on vulnerable populations, fetal development, transgender AIDS patients, etc., by encouraging scientists to formulate their budget requests in language that will slip past administration commissars. This shouldn’t have to happen,…
Good to know he’s as corrupt, as much of an ass, and as inappropriate a pick for his position as is his boss.
The comment about write-in votes cannot be about fraud unless Trump (or the lawyer who wrote the tweet) does not understand how elections work. If he wanted to go there (and he probably will later), he would have invented a conspiracy theory about Jews bused in from West Palm Beach. Instead, he’s minimizing Jones’…
There are multiple monuments in Western New York to the underground railroad, including the recent “Freedom Crossing” (across the Niagara River to Canada) exhibit and sculpture in Lewiston.
False equivalency. Democrats have already shown that they are willing to work with Trump when he will actually deal and not just yell at them to accept the unacceptable. Furthermore, some of what Trump promised during the campaign had liberal Democrats hoping they could work with him. Trump had no intention, however,…
Three years ago, I was working as an adjunct at a community college. I was getting $2500/course, not $3000. These are McDonalds-level wages. Colleges do this because they are squeezed and because there is a big enough pool of qualified people who will take the work at that price, not because they are mean. Or not…
It left me thinking “WTF was that absurd waste of time?” But I was in college in 1982, which I guess makes your point.
Enjoyed his work in True Blood and Elementary. RIP. :(
Ah, the power elite!
I have no gamer friends so I probably won’t play it, but it looks pretty cool to me.
We need a movement for free and fair elections. America has never fully lived up to its democratic ideals, and today we’re headed in entirely the wrong direction.
Re. Medicaid, assuming the AHCA or something like it passes the senate, most Red states will do exactly what you would expect: cut it to the bone. Current GOP ideology holds that health conditions are personal choices, and ditto for poverty and disability. If you can’t afford to have diabetes, you should have eaten…
Do they have a pre-amp to go along with it so I can attach a turntable?
