I’ll be sad if the show is canceled as there’s not much else I like on HBO lately, Crashing has got to be one of the most neurotic shows I’ve seen and I just can’t stand the anxiety of it.

The show’s central topic itself is something everyone wants to avoid thinking about... until it happens to them. For that reason alone, I think more people ought to give it a chance. There are some universal patterns from failed marriages that the show is drawing upon and all relationships can benefit from a little…

I really tried giving Crashing a shot, but it’s just so neurotic and depressing that I just can’t take it anymore. I do however like Divorce and am constantly wondering what it is that Frances really wants, especially after this episode.

I sold off all my shares on Feb 6th when there was a late day rally which yielded a 12.3% annual rate. Now I hang patiently to see if a rally can be strung along for a few days and make sure that volatility smile doesn’t come to haunt. Until then, Netflix and chill!

In many ways, Dana White seems to be the biggest impediment to the UFC being regarded as a legitimate sport. This whole fracas with Floyd Mayweather just screams sore losers (both White and McGregor, who pointed a gun to your head and forced you to take a boxing match?) and the Yamasaki controversy is just BS, blaming…

How about bringing Everybody Hates Chris back? I’m still surprised that the show never caught on when it’s absolutely hilarious. Plus, like half the cast from Martin would be on it. Malvo sadly isn’t around anymore but I’m sure Martin Lawrence can take on a role...

Wow, this is about the chair of the Federal Reserve and what Splinter News and its commentariat focuses on is identity politics. Not a single word about whether he’s an inflation hawk or a dove, or anything remotely related to the functions of the Reserve.

Or a trillion dollar coin... oh but Obama couldn’t get himself to do that. And then there’s the federal jobs guarantee that the Post Keynesians push for.

I think you’re on the money. I’ve recently gotten rid of my social media accounts (best thing ever!) and I think it’s also becoming apparent that it’s time to stop reading this fine Haim Saban venture and the comments section because I don’t think it helps to create any constructive dialogue and action, it just serves…

I think he’s just coasting now and that spells trouble for you, Splinter News. I mean the whole chart about workers’ wages not keeping up with productivity thing from EPI? That was already around in 2005 when I was just starting my MA in economics. How’s this still a fresh news item today? Or the parabolic…

A suggestion for a future post: we already know about the decline of unions, so how exactly do we get unions to become viable and vibrant again instead of listening to union guys grumble about how their union does nothing for them at the RiteAid checkout line? Be prescriptive as possible, go out and organize is an…

The greatest hockey movie ever based on the simple fact that it served as the main (and only) inspiration for kids to get into hockey in developing countries across the world where an ice rink is impossible to find. Thousands of stories affirming the cultural phenomenon that was Mighty Ducks.

As long as his economic philosophy and therefore policy sucks, no, he can’t be an ally. Even if he if agreed with BLM movement and liberal/progressive identity politics, resist those who support making some rich at the expense of the rest.

But what about the federal deficit? If you’re a DNC liberal, aren’t you worried about this? Is this the right time to ask for ponies?

Counterpoint: book the whole lot of these Roy Cohn types until the voting public is thoroughly disgusted and his major supporters are forced to back away.

This makes sense tactically but more importantly, we need to take a longer view and shed some tears over what we as Democrats and Progressives have done to tear each other apart and let the rot seep in during the election campaign. The people who are hurting the most through our actions are the poor, people of color,…

I have no idea what kind of pony you are cooking up here but the fact is this bribe will only help elect more Republicans in the future, not less. If memory was such an important factor, there would be no reason to provide socialism for the rich twice over a 10 year frame.

This is probably just the beginning, with more government program cuts coming as the tax reform budget blows up over time. It’s straight out of the supply-side economics textbook and regardless of whether you prioritize identity politics or economic justice, the result is that we all lose. It’s as if the economic…

Do this a few more time and we have a new Al MacInnis and way to score.
