How about you take your attitude towards those who put their lives on the line daily and move you ignorant ass to Yemen or some other 3rd world shithole where your ilk belongs. 

Andrew, I love your commentary on here and will continue to, but this is beyond a doubt the dumbest thing I’ve ever seen posted by an intelligent person.

That is quite a leap. Look bass, I'm not going to describe all the ways I fight racism in ways that matter. Scolding a bigot at a little league game would accomplish nothing.

This is good information to be aware of, especially with getting more familiar with dioxin type pollutants. There were a couple of things to point out though with respect to dioxins. From WHO (World Health Organization) page on dioxins:

I called the station to complain about this and they were full of excuses. They kept harping on the fact that the one who did most of the talking was a rookie as if that made it better. Why the heck are you letting your dumb rookie run his mouth? And why didn't whoever was training him shut him up?

This and the Michael Phelp’s examples are poor comparisons at best.

To join the choir: Deadspin’s refusal to acknowledge the complexity here is frustrating and undermines your credibility and good work elsewhere. Whether you want to draw the line at XX versus XY, or do a clustering analysis of testosterone levels (and performance); either way there is a clear basis to exclude…

It’s almost like they wanted me to click on this and have a strong reaction. 

How come when she says, “No man can tell me what to do.” it’s all cool and badass but when I do it, I still get thrown out of Hometown Buffet for barefisting the gravy trough?! That’s the real sexism.

Does the AFL-CIO accounting department investigating Gebre’s reimbursement requests have any effect at all on whether or not law enforcement is investigating the Trump Organization?

That is not true. Google marginal tax rates. And get a new tax person, preferably one that has a designation...

Oh, and BTW, the woman was shot to death, here. Like, spare me the socio-politico hot-takes for a moment. He shot an innocent woman to death. Period.

I agree for the most part and the whole open floor plan layout trend has reached the point of obnoxious, but I live in a small modernish house built in the late 50's, probably designed by someone who thought hover cars were right around the corner. The rooms are small (a 9'x7' bedroom), impractical and useless, and…

In my original home of Pittsburgh, the conventional wisdom to this day is “the unions destroyed the mills.” No, everyone realized that it’s cheaper to ship steel from halfway around the world because of poor international economies, and profits are valued over everything.

Except it doesn’t help. Redistribute all the money in the US evenly and within a year it will all be the same. Pay more in minimum wage and you simply redistribute from the middle class to the poorest workers while also giving those poor workers a net decrease in resources from the state and by way of cutting hours…

That's literally the definition of anecdote, a real story...

Soon these same idiots will be whining about how those $15/hr warehouse jobs were replaced by robots.

Fight for 15 has never been about arguing that $15 is a perfect universal wage, but rather that we need to rethink the wage floor in this country. What this movement essentially aims to do is more or less double the basic earning floor from ~$15k/yr to ~$30k/yr gross pay. It’s not the sum total of the fight for fair…

The “$15 is not enough” figure depends on state, the studies you refer to almost exclusively refer to to an average of all states. For example, <a href="http://livingwage.mit.edu/">MIT’s living wage calculator<a> says a living wage for a single adult in Wisconsin is $11.41. Looking at other midwestern states, the…

I don’t really know what is to be expected here, tbh. I get it, it would be nice for the bonuses and stock options to still be a thing, but isn’t it more important to have that minimum pay? How much are we saying a CSR for Amazon should be taking home? 20? 30?
