Sure it’d be criticized, just as I’m sure Hill’s was and Mark Jackson’s was. Then, depending on how the next coach does, it’ll eventually get dropped or they’ll do badly and the criticism will be proven right.

So she shouldn’t be hired because some people will be mad if they fire her? But those same people will be mad if they don’t hire her.

But she has also been Summer League head coach for longer. Besides, by your standard, Kidd was more experienced when the Bucks hired him than Patrick Ewing before Georgetown hired him this year.

For one year, before which, he’d never been any kind of coach at any level.

Yeah, and I’d argue the expectations for the Nets were higher when they hired him. They’d essentially mortgaged their future for a couple shots at a ship.

Oh, the anti-war left that mysteriously disappeared and got replaced by robots touting how “qualified” neocons are for office.

That makes no sense. Iran is one of Russia’s few allies and they aren’t in the Middle East, they’re in Persia. Russia hates the move, as you could see from RT condemning it.

You mispronounced Secretary of State.

The response to #Metoo while going out of the way to suppress the Greg Howard story by GMG has been really disheartening.

Yeah, deep thoughtful pieces brought me to Jez but they are few and far between now.

Yeah, that’s my feeling. I figure it’ll be fine and I’ll have fun. I guess I was hoping we’d all be lowkey about it but it seems like some of my friends are more serious about it.

This was from last week but got buried since I didn’t post till morning:

Yeah, I was confused about that for that exact reason.

But in this system, voting to stop extremists just necessitates greater evils as the Overton Window is shifted and thus inevitably pushes the climate in the wrong direction. The fact is, we have a system where all you need is a plurality and no matter how many people oppose you vehemently, you get into office and that…

If you miss sex, there’s always Tinder.

I think it’s less one thing than a bunch of little things. There aren’t a whole lot of three dimensional black woman characters, he made a joke about different ethnicities of women being the black girls of X race. There was the black woman who his uncle kept in a room and the one Paper Boi hung with which were…

Is anyone saying that? I thought we were talking specifically about Barr and West.

I feel that this is underplayed with her and Kanye. I’m not a medical professional but it seems like there are pretty clear signs of mental illness with both that seem to be getting ignored.

Roseanne Barr was running for the Green Party nomination as of 2012 though, so Idk.

Also come to think of it, it makes no sense to think it’s unfair either. Suppose you voted for candidate X. They got the most votes of the first election. Then, there’s a runoff with the last place candidate from the first election eliminated.
