Albert you realize that you’re stanning for the worldview that insists we have to credulously swallow the stories of the CIA, literally one of the most dishonest and corrupt organizations in human history, right.

Actually, Hillary’s biggest problem in the Rust Belt was the failure of voters of color to turn out in the same numbers as they did in 08 and 12, presumably because Democrats did not offer them a platform worth supporting.

I hear there’s a seasoned play-by-play guy who’s recently become available.

You don’t think it’s worth mentioning that the Patriots played the easiest schedule in the league this year?

Second, fuck this “I like people who get a second chance” bullshit.

So what exactly is the correct, progressive attitude towards the capacity of athletes who commit crimes to earn second chances and redemption? Once upon a time, believing in rehabilitation of criminals was a liberal value.

Hot ass take: Skyrim is a good sandbox but a bad game.
