Not really. Do we call men's sports teams the "Gentlemen [whatevers]?" No. Because there's no need. Calling women's sports teams the "Lady [whatevers]" reinforces the idea that men and men's sports teams are normal, standard, default, and that women and women's sports teams are an exception, other, abnormal. It…

if they're going to stick with Lady Vols, and the Lady is appropriate because it connotes someone who extends courtesy, then I see no reason that the men's team shouldn't be called the "Gentleman Vols".
AAAAAHHHHH!!!! I'm white!!! Am I under attack????
I'm so conflicted about this. Because, on one hand, I hate doxxing and I think it's scary to invade people's privacy and sometimes people get it wrong (like, remember when they released the name of the officer who shot Mike Brown and it was totally the wrong dude?) So there's that. But on the other hand, I think about…
Always warms my heart to see anon going after people who actually deserve it. Willing to bet some of the people involved with the case are related to the doxxed clansmen.
Right? "I'm sorry, we aren't available on that date" allows you to avoid sounding like an asshole AND potentially getting sued. Polite rejection: it's not that hard.
I agree. Also, the line 'There won't be snow in Africa this Christmas-time' has always irritated me beyond belief!
"Do they know it's Christmas time at all?" Do they give a good goddamn? Is it possible that perhaps Europe and America aren't the center of the universe and maybe some people aren't Christian and don't celebrate Christmas and perhaps this is generally the wrong way to frame an ongoing global public health crisis?"
Shouldn't the Eagles' PR staff have some sort of policy against their players following other teams?
zit popping, my most embarrassing, horrible fetish.

Was just listening to this story on Kojo Nnamdi (local NPR show in the DMV) and two things to note:
TOOOOOOOOTALLY not about Islamophobia though. I heard it's about ethics in journalism.
The bigger issue is that we shouldn't get caught up in any serious consideration of the KKK because it just gives the far larger number of people a convenient straw man to deem themselves to have views about race that are all hunky dorry. Tons of people use the KKK as their personal benchmark for unacceptable racism…
Perhaps I'm missing the sarcasm in the latter half of your comment but... Curt did get a "stupid rich guy" to invest $75 million in 38 Studios. Went by the name "State of Rhode Island."
I kind of feel sorry for the guy. Kind of. Somewhere along the way he lost his mind. He was a baseball hero in Philly and he blew that. Then he was a World Series hero in Arizona and he blew that. Then he became a World Series hero again in Boston and somehow managed to blow that too. Then he lost all of his…
Can someone please explain to me how creationists claim there are no fossils to prove evolution? Either I'm totally missing something, or these fucking people have never opened a book in their life (except for one, obviously).
Remember when Curt Schilling tried to start a gaming company and then proceeded to drive it straight into the ground? Who would have known he was an idiot?
