Of course he chose basketball. Of course.

This is the subway station closest to my office. There’s nowhere to put a ramp. If you’re taking the train downtown, it’s three flights of stairs; uptown, it’s four. There’s an escalator that runs from the downtown platform to the entrance level, but (1) it only runs up and (2) there are still two flights of stairs to…

as others have said, i switch up hot sauces depending on what i’m eating and have several favorites, including tipatio, louisiana, chipotle tobasco (awesome in bloody marys), sriracha. here in chicago there’s a place called heinie’s that has a great hot sauce that’s a brighter-than-pepto pink color (it’s available on…

Sriracha is the best hot sauce. I actually like a lot of different ones for different purposes (tabasco or cholula on eggs, frank’s wing sauce, etc.), but Sriracha is the best. It’s thicker, spicier, made from peppers and not just a vinegar/salt mix like a lot of others. If I could only have one hot sauce, this would…

A couple that I know adopted two kids from China who were around 11-12 years old. As soon as they got them to the US, they told them that they’d picked out new “biblical” names for them and that they didn’t need to use their Chinese ones anymore. The girl went along with it, but the boy insisted on keeping his. After…

I’ve been having trouble getting pregnant (and carrying to term) for the last few years, and I have a hard time thinking about adoption. I’m open to it, in theory, but as you say there are so many practical concerns and it’s so expensive. Plus if I’m honest, I’m terrified of having a child who rejects me when they’re…

I would never want to be the person making the decision as to whether or not a parent is capable of giving their child a good enough upbringing. It’s really not that black and white. Of course we can think of the scenario where the birth parents and their families are all clearly hopeless and in those scenarios a…

Those aren’t blinders, it’s the constitutional right to direct the upbringing of one’s children. You really couldn’t do a better job of supporting the author’s point that this is a reproductive rights issue, reading all that and responding with “we really should make it easier to do involuntary termination of parental…

Free birth control and more accommodating abortion processes.

Forced birthers want unwanted pregnancies to be punishment for having sex outside marriage. That’s why they oppose proper sex ed, because if you know how to use contraception you can avoid your “punishment” of pregnancy. Or why many people will allow an abortion in the case of rape, because that person didn’t agree to…

Where was ultra progressive black ally, Senator Bernie Sanders for this? Why didn’t he come to her aid and add his voice? Oh, right white.

She had black heritage, proudly accepted it and talked about it (though I admit I didn’t know about it, not that I knew much about her), embraced it without trying to pass for black or claiming to be ‘black’.

I’m with you. The first thing I thought of was the Wynn as the best buffet, but I do like Wicked Spoon for breakfast (typically because I’m staying there and a little hung over).

Who the hell was coming at her for a statement?! This young woman hasn’t been out there defending him. She doesn’t owe the world anything. It’s not her fault that her father is a POS. His kids aren’t his effing enablers -they’re victims in their own right. Can you imagine the years of therapy ahead of them? 

He has power, his daughter doesn't. They're small people who want to look woke without actually exposing themselves to repercussions

Oh god yes!!!!   I stayed there with the wife for our honeymoon (and didn’t gamble but for a twenty dollar bet on womens basketball.....I won).  We went in there for the brunch and my god......

Oh, and the Wynn buffet is indeed excellent.

The M by far has the best buffet. Of course, it’s miles south of the Strip, so not all that convenient to most Vegas visitors (I won’t stay on the Strip any more, since the gaming odds suck and I’ve been there enough that the novelty of the Strip has worn off).

Bellagio too. Its hard to go wrong with any of the higher end ones the only one I wouldn’t recommend is Cosmopolitan which seemed overly pretentious.
