WNBA players should be paid more—probably more than double what they’re paid now. However, even if there were parity between the percentage of league revenue paid to WNBA and NBA players, respectively, there would still be a huge dollars-and-cents wealth gap.

Conspicuously absent from the this list is the very real possibility that the guy just didn’t feel like wearing a mask. A lot of people just can’t be bothered.

I just look at how quickly and (greatly) South Korea got moving on this, and I shake my head. Aren’t we supposed to be the big dog with all the best stuff, and all the best people, and all the money, and all etc. and the great medicine?

I think there’s a lot to be said about your remark re- the media. I think it was an NBC or CBS executive who reportedly told his staff/subordinates in 2015 that Trump wasn’t good for the country, but he was great for ratings. Having said that, even if every other bungled thing leading up to now was such that the rich…

Cool, make it about me. At least you’re not pretending to have a point, or to have actually thought through any of this.

Figures. Not reading is why you don’t understand this issue.

That’s an interesting theory—like a kind of accelerationism; the best way to move the country Left is to make it suffer greatly under the Right. I think that’s the theory that underlies Elizabeth’s Warren thing about eliminating the filibuster — if whichever party is in power is able to put into place their preferred…

When you write:

im sorry, did you say something? all i could read was fart noises. you said you’re an adult but you’re passing the blame of biden’s loss on bernie supporters and they havent even had a vote yet.

If Joe Biden loses, it will be the direct result of a great deal of nominally left people preferring that Donald Trump be President for another four years, than to go out and vote for Joe Biden.

It gets worse from there because Tekashi69 an informant

I’m still waiting for the deep-dive by Kotaku or Jez into the idubz-simp controversy/meme. That seems like the perfect storm for a lengthy piece on slut shaming, the male gaze, streamer/influencer culture, etc. My assumption is that they could cobble this thing together from three or four other think pieces written…

It didn’t even take an hour from the news breaking for the start of people posting idiotic galaxy brain FB memes connecting her death to HRC.

To be fair, I was disheartened before—predominantly because, first, Trump supporters are clearly all-in on Trump in such a way that there really isn’t anything he can do to alienate them (this crisis only further cements that belief in my mind); second, there is an electoral advantage to being a conservative, which…

you morons keep pretending that the virus exclusively kills Trump supporters.

I find it dubious that anyone can beat Trump—the fact that his approval and disapproval ratings have improved since this health crisis began (despite him doing what seems to be his level best to kill his own base) tells me that I just don’t have the ability to occupy the headspace of a Trump voter in order to…

Looks like attempted murder to me. So much for “first, do no harm”. Throw his ass in jail and strip him of his medical license.

Just want to thank Mr. Bartley for the important work he’s doing as an advocate against gun violence, and to otherwise help to rehabilitate incarcerated (or recently incarcerated) people. The man is basically working to fix the externalities created by out broken carcerel system—a/k/a the prison-industrial…

Issues of credibility are usually left for the jury, but U. S. appellate courts do often make “legal sufficiency” analyses[.]

Rich guy buys an island to host fighting tournaments is the basic setup to like 90% of all fighting games. I can only assume that there will now be an influx of fighters into the UFC portraying a panoply of ethnic and racial stereotypes—but there will be at least one white guy using a martial arts form that does not…
