I’m honestly baffled on the leap it took to get from ‘doesn’t watch a tv show’ to ‘doesn’t like actor’. The REACH of it all.

Fuck, as someone who’s been reading The A.V. Club since it was in goddamn print in the early ‘90s, that site being wiped out as part of this colossal circus of mismanagement would hurt me in a very serious place. The quality of the work there has gone down the tubes in the past year, but it - and its community - have…

Counterpoint, having been to many Methodist weddings (meaning, no booze at all), is no booze at a wedding is PERFECTLY fine.

You guys are awesome. It is not hyperbole to say that this site often gets me through the day. Keep up the good work, and for the love of god do not stick to sports.

I’m saddened by the imminent firing of the great Ray Ratto.

And despite your corporate overlords telling you to stick to sports, I hope Deadspin never does because

and I can’t emphasize this enough

I come to Deadspin BECAUSE YOU DON’T JUST STICK TO SPORTS

Honestly I’m going to be sad to say goodbye of course, but I am very happy that Schur & Co are sticking to their limited timeframe.

Simone Biles is holding up just fine following news of her brother’s arrest for murder

He bought a house for his mom and moved into the “basement” because he has mental health problems and they figured that’s the safest arrangement for him. You can make fun of him for the stupid shit he said at the college show he just did but snarking on him for this seems extremely in poor taste to me.

He lives with his mom, or his mom lives with him (semantics), because they both agree it’s what is needed for his mental health, and that  isn’t kind to be snarky about.

Rolled my eyes so hard I saw my own brain.

I mean, no they’re not, they’re just some of the most famous people in the world. Famous=/=brightest. There are thousands of scientists/geniuses working on climate change right now, they’re just not going to get as much attention.

She’s legit only doing this in the hopes she will get invited to the swank parties back in NYC after this whole mess is over.

It wasn’t that long ago that Saudi Arabia took a couple of 7-0 beatings in the Men’s World Cups.

This logistical concerns are valid, but FIFA’s doing the right thing here. You say that they should’ve waited until there were more good teams and then expanded the tournament, but that’s getting the causation backwards: expanding the tournament will create more good teams.

I'll take "Non-Extradition Countries" for $200

Qatar is the only real answer, isn't it?

Funny, I thought the same thing, but maybe we’ve been trained to think “no body = still alive.” I guess that’s never been Veronica Mars’s rule. Beaver, Lynn Echolls, Meg...there have been plenty of characters who have died without us actually seeing a body.

Besides the ending, the other thing I really wanted to talk about was Veronica crashing Jake Kane’s lame speech and Kanye-ing him. That was glorious. Loved the panic in his eyes when she got out of the car. I had to go back and rewatch her yank that microphone from him more than a few times, and the captions saying,…
