Did they say anything about why they think it makes sense for universities to be running professional-level minor-league sports operations to begin with?

The problem with Thomas Harris are that his books often have a solid feminist core... but are also profoundly transphobic and homophobic. Nearly all his serial killers (of which there are something like a dozen in total) are either gay, transgendered, transexuals, victims of homosexual rape, or some combination - bar…

Anything feminist about Silence of the Lambs is completely undermined by how wildly transphobic Buffalo Bill is. They try to talk around how that character isn’t actually a trans woman but it doesn’t really work. There’s no getting around the fact that they made the final horror at the end of a gauntlet of misogyny a…

Silence of the Lambs, incidentally, is a deeply feminist film. I love this brief shot from near the beginning, which tells you basically everything you need to know about Clarice, the FBI, and the entire movie:

Yes, it’s super annoying.

Threadjack: is anybody else seeing Jez flipped? Usually on my screen the stories are on the right and the “you may want to” stuff’s on the left but it’s all turned around.

Jeb Bush: Please clap.

No couple REALLY cues up an episode of Real Sex to get in the mood.

Omg they all have pancreatic cancer?

For fuck’s sake. Surly there are less disgusting ways to avoid getting drafted by the Cleveland Browns.

He just has to whip himself into shape and make sure his ego doesn’t get bruised if he doesn’t get a majority of the carries. Maybe branch out to accommodate different facets of the offense, you know, switch it up.

I’m sure he’ll be anxious to stick it to the teams that passed on him.

Options kind of leave Malcolm in the middle.

I continue to be amazed by the disparity between the deals negotiated MLB and NFL players unions. It’s practically illegal to overpay a pro football player (QBs excepted), and practically illegal NOT to overpay any pro baseball player over the age of 25.

“Why are you guys so bad when Westbrook goes to the bench?”

Would it kill you guys to find a photo of Vlade that makes him somewhat remotely halfway sober?

Imagine a player with the head of a very smart kind of elephant and the body of, well, also an elephant but FAST! Now imagine a man who is half goat and he has hooks for hands. That’s crazy! Why not? Why can’t I have hooks for hands and live in the sewer? I’m just saying there’s no real reason why not. Cam Newton. Tom…

Also, sun is hot.  

Dare I ask what the thing with the cat is? Or do I really just not want to know?
