I think IT in particular really wanted to play after his sister died because it gave him something else to do instead of grieve. I thought he said something to that effect during the playoffs, and it’s fairly common.

That could be true. But if you’re a Celtic, and it wasn’t clear before, you’re much better off behaving like Kawhi than Isaiah when your team asks you to make a sacrifice like playing through injury or coming back quickly from a family member’s death.

Serena Williams’ domination of women’s tennis has been even more impressive to me because her room for error is so much lower than on the men’s side.

They have to work out sharing the rights to Vanessa, who obviously is the actual cosmic personification of death in Marvel Universe but tied up in Deadpool movies for now.

Like with the hospital sketch from Meaning of Life, that seems a more charitable reading than it was intended at the time.

Reading the oral history of it from the other people there, it doesn’t seem like Steve Austin was there, or at least that it happened that way.

Why do we need to encourage people to join STEM programs?

In this moment, I do think it’s worth remembering the sort of person he would have been if he’d continued to live, which is to say someone who continued to defend GamerGate long after it was defensible, who continually dismissed and mocked the women who were targeted by it, and who engaged in the the sort of casual

It’s almost always been the case that creative people are most productive when working around constraints that ask them to focus on what really is important and more thoroughly justify their decisions.

Did I misunderstand the commentary or was it just the barking?

I honestly don’t understand how Jeff Bezos can be this stupid.

Add to this, the absolute worst two teams should draft in the middle of the order, as if they were eight seeds now.

I think you could grandfather-in existing players but going forward, all new NBA players get maxed out at like 70 games they’re allowed to play in at all.

Give the top draft picks to the eighth-seed playoff teams and a middle pick to the two worst teams before dropping down to those who didn’t make the playoffs and doing the order as normal (3-14, 17-30).
