Fuck you, Jaxon

They’re both good shows. One just did better in the ratings. Honestly, I don’t see the hate for Fox on this; they promoted Mindy Project quite well over the years, gave it three seasons and the ratings just weren’t there.

Lots of worthy shows (and, for me, Mindy’s show ISN’T one of them) got and get cancelled because of ratings. She’s had enough seasons to prove herself and it didn’t work out. Make way for someone else to try.

If only Ohio State had beaten an SEC team en route to winning the National Championship, maybe Jones would have a defensible comeback to Noah’s sick burn

Hearing “SEC” uttered, Dan Gilbert immediately bolted from Quicken Loans Arena.

Yeah, such a burn to the kid who beat the SEC champ and Pac12 champ to win the national title.

Pretty bold for a guy playing in the Eastern Conference.

See, as Mindy herself has explained when called on her show’s racial issues, it’s just enough that she shows up Indian every day. She’s an Indian woman who has her own show. She has no responsibility beyond that, and specifically has no responsibility to any POC who is not Mindy. We are the problem, not her, see?

Ratings?

Oh, so no more eps of “White Men I have loved.” a.k.a. “I think Black people are scary.”?

You can discuss whether it’s stupid or poorly acted, which it is. But leaping into a “HOLY SHIT THIS IS HORRIBLE, THE CAVS LOVE DOMESTIC VIOLENCE!” or even “This is problematic and further entrenches the patriarchy or whatever” is just insane. I mean it’s actually and truthfully insane.

So basically... we know it’s harmless and not really endorsing domestic violence at all... but let’s put up this post so we can a) get hits and b) make ourselves feel good by folding our arms about how this is “questionable.”

It’s like the goddamn religious right protesting MTV all over again, only from the other side

How about we worry about actual domestic violence... as opposed to videos that don’t depict domestic violence but which you could twist in order to get offended? That sound good?

For background, Hauser wrote the definitive biography on Muhammad Ali, making him a highly relevant figure at this fight given the plentiful (albeit blasphemous) comparisons between Mayweather and Ali in the run up.

Appeared to be coated in a tacky substance and seemed spongy or soft when squeezed.

FIXED.

The GOP just needs a woman to yell at Hillary Clinton for optics.

What? That’s really dumb.

Really? They have to prove it like you would a murder or other crime? And have you read the text transcripts between the equipment guys? The ones joking about how Tom likes them deflated and they’ll fuck with him by making it rugby time? It’s DAMNING. Even if beyond a reasonable doubt is a standard, I think they’re
