He's retiring to spend "Moore" (more) time with his bread!

Aww, but it's so well-manicured and cushiony!

I have likewise been resoled twice but remain comfy, so this is reassuring.

Old Bayoncé of Destiny's Chili? I love her!

I was ten!

Yeah, I've never watched a football game under my own volition ever, but I clicked on this because I find the Kaepernick kerfuffle extremely interesting, and because I knew John Teti wrote this column, so it'd be worth reading, even from an outsider's viewpoint.

Oh man, you're going to have fun with Perdido Street—really crystallizes Mieville's aesthetic into something chewy and absurd and dark.

Good luck, JP—I know that feeling, and therapy's helped a bit with my similar feelings. Knowing nothing about you but your posts, you're not a worthless piece of shit (and what happened yesterday doesn't define you, even if it upsets you—a momentary lapse of attention is human, and no one was hurt).

Mitski's Puberty 2, which is gnarly St. Vincent-esque power pop

It's 100% South Carolina in a nutshell, at the very least.
