I’ve often thought the same about Black Panther. Wakanda is the most technologically advanced society in the world and yet they’re not only a monarchy, they have one of the stupidest, most atavistic channels of succession possible: personal combat. How can T’Challa call himself a hero and defend this form of…

Front loaders use a horizontal cylinder and gravity to tumble the clothes to agitate them, like a dryer. This is generally better for delicates as a physical agitator can be kind of rough on fabrics, relatively speaking. Front loaders also tend to be more efficient with water and energy usage. Finally, front loaders…

Would it be illegal for someone in the bullpen to interfere once the ball crosses the plane of the wall? My understanding is that it’s not for spectators. I’m thinking some Baltimore relief pitcher should have punched the hell out of Bradley’s glove and fought him for the ball. The home team should actually install…

Another example: the DC Animated Universe. The last two seasons of Justice League, which capped off everything that started with B:TAS, were absolutely phenomenal.

I don’t understand how this is even an argument anymore. Outside of the umpire’s union, who’s being like, “actually, it’s awesome when umpires make shitty calls.”

“Oh, do I have an accent now? I didn’t even notice!”

The Red Sox are paying him $19 million this year!

This is the team that invited Curt Schilling to take part in their opening day festivities. I wouldn’t hold my breath.

“Whether you like it or not, Jerry Sandusky was one of the great football coaches in NCAA history.”

Gettleman is a perfect example of a dumb guy who thinks he’s smart and going to prove it to everyone. “Hurr durrr...I don’t believe in analytics.” No you moron, you don’t understand analytics and you’re getting your ass kicked because of it.

In the U.S., the first game will always remind me of artist parties in abandoned Williamsburg, Brooklyn factories, when the neighborhood was still raw as hell and before that all became a cliche. Same vibe.

Sebastian Shaw, Black King of the Hellfire Club?

I may be dating myself, but does anyone remember the whole Planet Hollywood vs. Planet Thailand (which was forced to rename itself the nonsensical Plan Eat Thailand) fight from the late 90s?

Now maybe some of these Disney Princesses might start recognizing their own privilege and stop ignoring the fact that it relies on the economic and social subjugation of the middle and lower classes based on nothing but the happenstance that they got born into the right families or that their foot fit into the right…

“Monsters” is just a flat out great name for a team.

You could do worse than having a lineup full of guys who hit like Matt Stairs. Plus OBP, plus power. Pretty poor fielder, though.

I like how Sixto Lezcano and Rick Manning looked stoned out of their minds, and Lee Mazilli looks like he just walked in the room and is like, “can I get in on that?”
