False reports of sexual assault are pretty rare in the regular world, but they aren’t particularly rare in politics—there’s such an obvious incentive to falsify claims in politics that just doesn’t really exist outside of it. Pete Buttigieg was hit with a fake rape claim last year. At least one of the allegations…

Jez writers seem to be overwhelmingly pro-Bernie, and probably believe that if Reade's allegations force Biden out of the race, it will allow Bernie to ride in on a white steed to take over the nomination. 🙄🙄🙄
I don’t know. We seem to be bending over backwards to find reasons why we should believe Tara Reade. Mostly centered on “believe women,” a concept I support. And I know that there’s a lot about how “real victims” behave and how damaging that is—so we shouldn’t factor in her character, which is that she’s a lifelong…
I honestly cannot figure out why Jezebel keeps defending this lady. The best investigative journalists have followed up and can’t confirm her story.

I know the Warriors are the official villains of the league, but is there any NBA team less likable than these assholes?
Do y’all think that Harden wouldn’t get gassed so much if he weren’t playing at NBA intensity for however many minutes a night while wearing the equivalent of a merino face warmer?
This is true. Last night was poetic, in a classic good versus evil story kind of way, where the team that plays the proper brand of high-effort team ball won out in the end.
I totally agree, but it’s easier to repeatedly yell 27 missed 3s in a row when “debating” someone at a bar.
Last year’s loss was excruciating but excusable. They were missing Chris Paul and it was possible to look at 0-27 as some cosmic anomaly. Sometimes, sports is cruel.
The Rockets:
Why do I feel like his State Farm agent really is Chris Paul’s closest friend?
Besides the schadenfreude and some chuckles, I really couldn’t care less about this Kraft angle of this story.
