“by 1983 he paid back the government loans, with, according to the Chrysler mavens at AllPar, a massive check written out for $813,487,500.”

When I bought my first car about 5 years ago, I was on a budget and my main choices were a Mazda 6 and a Hyundai Sonata. Drove them both, liked them both well enough... But it just seemed like Hyundai was going in a better direction. Not luxe, necessarily, but they included a lot of nice finishes, and they were…

Pretty much my exact take when I heard about this a few weeks ago. Though I suppose this opinion my be a bit too nuanced for the Twitterati to fully digest before suffering a woke-ness rager. Covering up a mural depicting Native American genocide... what does that accomplish besides erasing the ugliness of US history?

At this point, every time i get sick or fatigued or something feels weird I start thinking “is this the beginning of the end?” And then you see someone 15 years younger than you just drop dead and all I can think is FUCK.

Does KD get some kind of record for shortest amount of years played per retired jersey? Didn’t they retire his number at Texas also? So he’s got like 2 already for 4 years of play? At this point if OKC retires his number it’ll be dragging his average down.

Well, I suppose climate plays a big part. Miami doesn’t exactly scream hot, creamy soup...I guess gazpacho would be more the thing.

He said #idratherdogoodfilms, not #idratherdocinematicpantheonfilms

I think the fact that it was one woman’s account of what sounded like a bad date that ended in unwanted advances and hints not being taken, and that no other credible accusers have come forward (as far as I know, I haven’t checked lately) to make similar claims... I feel like it’s time for the next season of Master on…

This is probably the most British thing I’ll read today.

As someone who did a LOT of biking in NYC over a decade and a half, and did some considerable amount as driving as well, I wholeheartedly accept the “both sides” argument. There are shitty morons on both sides. I’ve been doored by a car or bumped at a light and nearly hit/run over many times. And when i’ve been…

I have friends who are professional writers/reporters/entertainers, who were very resistant to buy their own domain names. I just threatened to buy them myself and hold them hostage until they finally did it. Just bonkers not to do it at this point in history.

It was a bonkers first pick, but the rest of the draft makes up for it. Dom is the clear winner to me. I think a lot of the voters are getting thrown off by the top pick though.

A very unconventional top pick, but Dom wins this, hands down. Got a top-notch soup in the clam chowder, a “i feel like shit and need something hearty but not creamy” standard in minestrone, a salty garbage soup in eggdrop soup, and the necessary vat of cheese soup (though i do prefer the broccoli cheddar, it was not…

This is pretty much on brand with everything else Apple does, right? They have basically four phones for sale, and the sell a few different computers. This has been their model forever. Quality over quantity (regardless of what you think the quality actually is) is what they go for.

Whether I agree with him or not, I put George Will FAR above Bret Stephens. Brett Stephens : George Will :: Eric Trump : Donald Trump. Same ridiculousness, only executed way worse.

Yeah, she definitely has a “WTF FUCK THIS” look. Heck, Corin pretty much does too. The only one who looks like she’s totally into it is the one whose girlfriend is producing the band now.

There is no way Annie Clark did not Yoko Ono Sleater-Kinney.

I’ve got an invite to see JD and the Straight Shot for free next month at a small club show. I am definitely going.

It’s really hard to remember now in the wake of “STEPHEN A. SMITH!” but when he first showed up on ESPN and was still a Philly reporter, he was actually almost normal. ALMOST.

There is zero chance St. Vincent did not just Yoko Ono Sleater-Kinney. Just look at Janet’s face in that photo (and Corin’s, for that matter). The only person who seems to be into it is the person who’s dating Annie Clark.
