Never seen the film, but this song was apparently featured in it.

Grace’s excellent earlier work earned her my willful ignorance of her later mistakes.

Some sins can never be entirely washed away.

Sorry, I’m still dumb. How was Mannequin woven into the fabric of their pleated khaki lives? I remember the movie, just not how it applies here.

Rich, am I missing something where you’re saying Starship is an artifact of queer culture?

Actual tears streaming down my face crying over this support from the Muslim community to the Jewish community. I’ve been calling for my fellow Jews to stand up and support our Muslim brothers and sisters against Islamophobia. Our two groups have a ridiculous amount in common and we should be standing side-by-side.…

And here I thought I’d need to wait until Newcastle got promoted again to watch a team wearing black and white let their opponents score at will.

Both are worthy fuckin’ adversaries.

A lot of people think the team uses just one route for their attack, but subsequent analysis found that they placed a lot of players deep within their opponents half. These players may lie undetected for an entire half before striking.

I can’t tell if it’s the camera angle or my ignorance of Vietnamese soccer, but shouldn’t the red guys be heading south?

In fairness, she mentions “the strain of playing year-round” and the physical toll it has taken. A lot of WNBA players play overseas once the season ends. I don’t think it’s fair to equate a profession that requires year-round strenuous physical activity and training to being an accountant.

12 teams, 12 players, so 144 total athletes. 2% of 144 is 3.

(Even Dennis Rodman thinks “only” 50 percent of WNBA players are likely homosexual.)

Agreed that her “98%” figure is so absurd that it seems to speak to a resentment of her lesbian teammates. Probably something her teammates and others in the league picked up on quickly, and didn’t appreciate.

This could have been her entire article.

Thanks! I would have thought that the conjunction with the other events would have made that link.

Yea, I remember another story where we got all outraged that they hadn’t decided to investigate an incident as a hate crime, and then like, an hour later the authorities came out and said they were. I think it just takes some time to get all the ducks in a row, and these preliminary press releases are often pretty…

You have to catch a suspect before you can decide what you’re going to charge him with. We all want immediate justice but they don’t even have a suspect yet.

There were over 100 headstones toppled. Who is this lone asshole toppling that in one night? The Hulk?

You’d have to be very committed to your prank to kick over that many headstones without collapsing yourself. A prank is one, this is a coordinated crime by multiple people.
