Was probably distracted by the socks. I know I was.

Scherzer pitches 4 straight lights out starts before going literal supernova on the mound and burning the rubber to ash.

I could see Dallas taking a grab at Mariota after this season for peanuts if they don’t blindly sign Dak Prescott to a crazy ass extension.

We are Christians here; we believe in forgiveness. Well, I mean, apart from the hateful atheists who want to increase spending on public education, allow weirdos and queers to pee next to my daughter, try to prevent teen pregnancy, and stop cops murdering black and brown people, among other things. Other than that,…

The product is worthwhile-

We’ve been hearing for years that “opening up consumerism and chinese markets will naturally spread democratic ideals” as some neoliberal horseshit.

Keep in mind, as the reporter says, the Chinese government doesn’t allow protests.

Yeah, but which Miracle on 34th Street? If it’s the old one (yay!) will it still air on TBS or whatever around Xmas time?

Oh, come on! We’re all for protests and stuff, so long as I’m not inconvenienced.

As a Lions fan you can only see this shit play out so many times before you start to question why you bother to watch NFL football at all.

Anyone who says they do the crossword after Wednesday is a liar.

“What a waste it is to lose one’s mind. Or not to have a mind is being very wasteful. How true that is.”

Fair. But there’s really no need to reach back that far in modern history. 1989 Tiananmen Square was only 30 years ago. That’s what Hong Kong will soon resemble.

It’s just realistic. Regardless of your self righteous opinion, I’m really tired of people pretending as if this would have zero consequences on people’s lives.

Craven capitulation to money I can understand. It’s gross but careers are short, whatever. But this is craven capitulation to the bullies in the Chinese government who are so shit-scared of what’s happening in Hong Kong that they’ve mobilized their worldwide army of ass lickers in support of their temper tantrum.

Kind of a reverse prisoner’s dilemma. If they all do it, they’ll all be OK. But no one wants to be the first.

I’m sure US companies are going to have a delightful time playing the appeasement game with authoritarian, fascist governments. It’s worked out so well many times in the the past, obviously. Just ask Neville Chamberlain!

If I could build a time machine, I’d go back to the Korean War and let MacArthur invade and conquer China, like we should have.

It’s straight out every anti-intellectual American conservative’s playbook
