She had a knee injury that had already been talked about. It is very common for athletes, when talking about why they underperformed, to mention injuries. I call bullshit on this woman talking about her injury being “whining” or in any way “taking the credit away” from Pliskova. Serena is a sore loser? Lol, yeah, ok,…

I wish more people would talk about how highlyover-rated and generally horrible threesomes are. Never had (or heard) of a good experience, and it’s ok to admit - you’re just not into them. Go Amber.

Rachel Maddow could never get the job for one reason: she isn’t really able to stop being a journalist, & you need someone like Matt Lauer, who is able to warp reality to the point where both candidates have equally valid points of view, to handle 2016.

Maddow as moderator would have ensured that Trump either refused to participate or would have only given NBC this and then blacklisted them (Bias! Sad!).

Meanwhile, Lester Holt’s son anchors the local NBC evening newscast in Chicago. His name?

The acceptance of white male mediocrity never ceases to amaze me.

Matt Lauer has sucked for so long and we just . . . accept it.

There’s definitely a racist offshoot of the Harambe meme, but most of the meme seems to be more about Danny Trejo* and absurdism.

Good. Let this serve as a reminder that women have always, always fought. Vikings had shield maidens and Shaka Zulu had his all-female body guard. Women dressed as men to join the fight. They take up arms and become rebels and guerillas. In Russia they become bombers and tankers and snipers. In feudal Japan they…

“roving entourage of neckbearded babymen.”

Jesus, that’s beautiful. I mean, the turn of phrase, not the actual roving entourage of neckbearded babymen; fuck those people.

If only we had some sort of court system to deal with people who shoot other people! It’s too bad we don’t have anything like that. As president I will invent the US court system!

it’s because he’s a mra and I am fucking befuddled as to why so many people on Jez are agreeing with him.

And you’re flipping the script here somehow by saying that IF a male were the subject of their disagreement, OP was blaming HIM?

erm. I don’t see how toxic masculinity is at play here AT ALL - if anything it’s a sexist comment about how women always make everything about men. If it were in regards to toxic masculinity, the comment would have been about two men in conflict over a woman. This is not that hard.

Then he’ll allow Trump to interrupt with, “I can do it in 4 words. NO GIRLS IN SCHOOL.” receiving tearful applause from Lauer and a standing ovation from his roving entourage of neckbearded babymen.

It has happened! See: the murder of Shanda Sharer.

“Secretary Clinton: Can you explain and provide your solution to the crisis of gun violence in America? Please use 10 words or less.”

Matt Lauer will probably find some way to blame this on Hillary... for empowering girls or whatnot.

Playing the anthem early pretty much proves the uselessness of playing it at all, right?
