Peck’s column popped up in my newsfeed on Saturday and I read it all the way through. Within its text, one thing became clear to me (me: a 57 year old gay man who went through the early 90s in NY and LA - and all that meant, too): Peck is stuck in a time and place and suffering from arrested development. I’d wager…

Well this gay man found parts of the article to be quite homophobic. Calling a gay man “Mary” in an attempt to degrade and belittle him is pretty textbook homophobia.

Is it possible that it’s maybe not outright homophobia, but still pretty shitty to criticize someone for not being gay the way you want them to be (politician or not)?

They are investigating ways they can blame the victim.

This okay, too?

I, too, have gotten rich by not investigating the value of things I buy and accidentally overspending by nearly half a million dollars on a single purchase.

I recognize that the only way I’d place second in a cycling race is if there are only two people racing, but I do not understand why so many cyclists pull a DeSean Jackson like that. I don’t even finish my McDonald’s fries without watching over my shoulder for my wife to come and steal the big ones I save for last.

Westbrook was better than Melo ever was, but nonetheless, I feel like his career’s going to wind down in almost exactly the same fashion. He’ll be a wildly overpriced albatross for a couple of years, and then he’ll be the veteran that someone signs because maybe he’s still got some life in him, but instead his…

The Oxford comma is a treasure, and should always be used. Don’t give me any of this, “Weeeelll, in AP style...” crap. Are you writing for the AP? Are you writing for a fucking broadsheet newspaper where you’re reducing character count out of consideration for column inches? If you are doing those things, fine (still…

This hot take is about too many dashes and the conclusion is two kinds of dashes are OK?

“Man the 4th of July is really amazing. Sure it’s a bit of hokey, flag humping nationalism, but you really appreciate all the amazing things we enjoy as a country. (Reads Burneko’s dash post) Freedom of press was a mistake.” 

There should be a short dash and a long dash

Dashes ranked.

I want to stress in all caps, "A DEVELOPER'S DECISION TO CHANGE ASSETS OF ITS OWN PRODUCT IS NOT CENSORSHIP!" People are so fucking stupid. 

It’s one of those cases where, with 10+ years in the design/marketing field, I 100% understand why Blizzard would make these changes. However, going back to that experience in the design/marketing field, I’m not a fan of artists needing to alter their work due to outside forces (even if it is just Blizzard’s marketing…

If waiters gave a six minute time limit for making a decision, my wife would never eat again. HAHAHAHA!

Trailblazers Twitter absolutely fell in love with this guy and I was very much looking forward to them giving him $5 million a year for 3 years and the entire fanbase turning on him by February.
