Read: she got famous-ish, and everyone with a petty grievance wants to make sure everyone-ish knows she was once an idiot child.

I like how she made it real passive when it comes to thanking: “They never give America credit” but real personal when it comes to blaming: “start blaming people who had nothing to do with slavery for the sin of slavery.” Bitch you can’t ask for credit for ending slavery in 1865 but not take blame for perpetuating…

They make an app that you can use to record police footage that will automatically send the footage to the ACLU regardless of whether some cop tries to fuck with your phone. Everybody should have it. https://www.aclu.org/issues/criminal-law-reform/reforming-police-practices/aclu-apps-record-police-conduct

So I lived in Rolla Missouri for about 4 years. It’s a small strange town that is about 30 minutes from a very large Army base (Ft Leonard Wood) and has one of the best engineering schools in the US (MS&T, formerly UMR). There were a couple junk yards that dealt largely in mil-surplus items. Poking around these yards…

Those are vehicles that are only used by the Marines. You’ll spend days just cleaning the crayon smears off the walls of the cab and Fabreezing out the creatine fart smell.  

In 1966 he hit .316/.410/.637 with 49 homers and 122 rbi. He led the AL in average, OBP, and RBI and led the majors in SLG, OPS, runs, and homers. He won the Triple Crown, the MVP and World Series MVP. He accomplished more in 1966 than most hall of famers did in their careers

Nope, just thought it was cancer. I knew she had a physical issue to overcome. Thanks for the clarification. 

As would Pekka Rinne.

“Who aside from Lundqvist and Luongo are definitely on their way to the Hall of Fame?”

Halladay said he wanted to go in as a Blue Jay. Here’s the video evidence, and it is unequivocal:

I’ve never met the man, but I think he would prefer to go in as a Binghamton Rumble Pony. Now you might ask “did he ever play for the Mets AA affiliate?”

As someone who has looked Roy Halladay dead in the eyes via my young brothers Sports Illustrated For Kids posters I’m 100% confident he wanted to be inducted into the HoF as a member of the Phoenix Coyotes.

Oh hell no. I’ve heard first-hand from family members what the old “literacy tests” for voting rights were like. That’s just asking to disenfranchise non-white people. 

Great article.

So coroners should ignore scientific reality...

From a life-long Warriors fan, this is *still* all so bizarre. This organization was the worst kind of goat rodeo for a better part of 20+ years - a complete laughing stock, an example of how not to run an organization, and a place that our players ran from - and that free agents dare not join. Think about that. It’s…

‘I get that Draymond rubs people the wrong way, but I can think of plenty of NBA players who are more unlikeable than him.’

Not whiter, though.

Ok, so the FBI has occasionally gone down the “if you can’t find any terrorists, making your own is fine” route, but here doesn’t seem to be that.
